“Pizza Hut declares bankruptcy” - headline in 8 months
Also read @greenwell.bsky.social’s book “Bad Company”

My high school pal is planning to watch last night's Knicks game after his kids go to bed tonight. He does not live in NYC but DOES work an internet job, and he has zero idea what happened. I have so many questions for him about how he is pulling this off.
