News Roundup-ette for Friday Nov 18, 2022. Man-buns sell ETFs? Who f-ing knew?

There are a few levels of fun misinformation contained within the Tweets. In case the humor doesn't explain itself, here's a primer: TheVerge.com partially explains (they leave out the Johnson!).
It's that time of year...
News Roundup-ette for Monday Nov 14, 2022. It’s all about dodos.
Today, Trudeau's Globe and Mail division suffered the indignity of having to acknowledge that Trudeau is actually a global political liability with whom not even the Chinese Communists want to be seen. (Don't worry,...
