  You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  It's weird how mediocre companies flock together
  
  That said, people in the '90s would flip if they knew Yahoo and AOL would someday be insert common ownership

  I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat

  They'd also flip if you told them that AOL was going to fuck up an already-fucked media conglomerate even harder

  AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink own the old Bell System (CenturyLink gained Bell DNA when it bought out Qwest in 2011, who bought out US West in 2000)
  
  AT&T owns every piece of the Bell System aside from Bell Atlantic/NYNEX and US West, I think
