      I opened your post history to see if this was the lazy unfunny fatphobia I thought it was and found an additional awful fucking take right away:

      That seems like a better system than say, Godot, who picks and chooses who is allowed to contribute.

        Investigating a user for a sus body shaming post, banning them for a programming drama post. Truly a self at awful dot systems moment. Never change (meaning this sincerely, thanks for the good mod work).

    I imagine that from a exec’s perspective, this is a slam dunk. He’s got three other film adaptations of his books, the blind side (problematic), moneyball (loved it), and the big short (also loved it). Plus, people can’t help but fawn over these techbro billionaires, especially when they are depicted in film.
