Robert Altman's infamous career-ruining bomb that was also the 11th highest grossing film of 1980, outpacing RAGING BULL, CADDYSHACK, AMERICAN GIGOLO, THE SHINING, & the first FRIDAY THE 13TH.

A whole rotisserie chicken for $7.50 is a miracle of capitalism. It's most of a day's calories for 30 minutes of minimum wage. It's delicious. It goes with everything. It comes hot, but you can eat it cold. Incredible.— Bachman (@ElonBachman) June 22, 2023
Efficiency and tech advancement could be prioritized if we had a societal structure that didn’t require people to work in order to obtain access to basic resources required to stay alive such as healthcare, housing, and food.
