  OMG, that is awesome! They have a limited amount of time to capitalize on that before all the Infowars drones catch on.
  
  I'm not sure if OP means this, but given that the acquisition headline has been posted 500 times today, I assume they meant "what's the deal with the desk?"

Who owns The Onion? What to know after satire publication buys Alex Jones' Infowars

The current owner and chairman of The Onion is Jeff Lawson, with Ben Collins listed as chief executive officer, according to the publication's website.

However, The Onion's parent company is Global Tetrahedron, where Bryce P. Tetraeder is CEO.

Collins should GTFO of Bluesky, because it is a Nazi bar, about as much as 𝕏itter is.
- Wat? It's full of gay furries and IT professionals haha
  
  And Xitter is full of porn and neoliberal, Democratic party-aligned pundits, but doesn’t negate the fact that it’s a Nazi bar.
  
  But you repeat yourself
- nope, their name is tim onion.
Hope Dan has room in his home studio!
