With the criminal charges against FTX's owner he should simply sit in the Senate hearing room and say nothing.

Watched parts of it. Interestingly, everyone speaking was an elderly person. Not a single youth in the discussion. I feel that the nuances of this crypto thing is more understandable by youth, maybe Gen Z. Wouldn't it be appropriate to include some of them in this discussion?

They are busy with insta and tiktok and making youtube videos about how much they lost on ftx !

But you might want to think twice before a romantic kiss gets involved: It's a poisonous parasite whose name comes from the way it distributes it's seeds *: "Mistle" is Anglo Saxon for "dung" (being polite here), and "Tan" is the word for "twig" - so technically, it's a "sh*t stick" you are kissing under.
* Once it passes through the birds digestive system, it comes out coated in a thick gloopy, sticky liquid which attaches to the birds cloaca and the best way to scrape it off is using a rough surface - like a tree branch. Since that positions the seed (together with a dollop of fertilizer) where it wants to be to parasitise a tree, it works out pretty well.

I hear that was the basis of a popular game[^] in the hundred acre wood.

Yeah, the whole bear's name was rebranded by the editor prior to publication.
Coincidentally, I've had the Pooh Bear stories on audiobook in the car the last few weeks.

As I recall, the way to win is to drop them into the water in a 'twitchy' sort of way.

How does the "toe" from Mistletoe morph into "Tan" that ultimately gives you "stick"?
|
|

Tan is the plural form of ta, which is Old English for toe.

And in case that's not complicated enough, "tan" was also used to mean "two" when counting sheep[^].
