French singer-songwriter Charles Dumont, who composed Edith Piaf's Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien, has died at the age of 95.

Dumont was 27 years old when he wrote the song in 1956. But it was not until 1960 that he was persuaded to approach the star, who enthusiastically accepted it.

Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien (I regret nothing) - which expresses a wish to make peace with the past and start anew - became one of Piaf's signature songs.

It topped the charts in France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Canada. The song is also well known throughout the English-speaking world - it was notably quoted in 1993 by Britain's then-Chancellor Norman Lamont.


Not to be confused with

There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around
That the colt from old Je ne regrette rien", had got away,

This probably has implication here too, wealth funds manipulating energy cost for higher profits.

Yep, not smart at all. And zero self-awareness. It's so cringey the way he won't leave Trump's side now. He was even in a Trump family portrait and did Thanksgiving with him.

Unfortunately, it's undeniable that his $ and influence over middle America via Twitter got Trump elected. This doesn't make him smart, though.

His twitter bet paid off immensely, took the risk and now has POTUS elect owing him one.

Imo he's a throwback to the great American tradition of robber baron capitalists

If that was his cunning plan from the start, then yeah, good outcome. But you're being very generous attributing that planning to him. It evolved and fell into his lap, just dumb luck (which he needed after f***ing up Twitter's value horrendously).

Science, Physics, Engineering, Entrepreneurship.... all that has lead him down the path of becoming the richest person on the planet.

Yet the some will claim on an internet forum that Musk is 'dumb'.

Sure.

Definitely not a grand cunning plan from him, as evidenced by the massive 180 he did on Trump in the last 6~ months.

He had previously said Trump was too old to be President;



Trump and Musk used to hate each other, too.






When he bought Twitter he spent the first 18~ months saying Twitter had to be "politically neutral".





So yeah, you're spot on LuvtheKangas - this backflip ended up being advantageous out of circumstance and dumb luck more than anything. And of course, a massive dose of self-interest.

I think he had to roll double sixes to get out of the enormous hole he'd dug himself aye.

But he did, and now here we are in the world where he's the big winner of the last few years.

It sucks but its reality. Putin is winning in Ukraine and Trump won the Presidential election .

And now Elon Musk has an army of deadshits convinced of his genius.

And like flies to shit his got all these people coming out of the woodwork expressing their discontent for the man.

Our children, their children and so on….when they use up all of earth’s resources and the planet becomes uninhabitable….they’re gonna need people like Musk.

But sure share us your tweets

Or…share with us what you’ve created.

There’s a whole bunch of you who would gladly let Enron run today, but your conspiracy antennae would only start to bristle if they had a ‘earth day acknowledgment’ tab on their website somewhere.

This also applies to your longstanding dumb****ery in the COVID thread.

Rogan pilled lemmings are so cucked. You’re the establishment’s useful idiots.

No the world doesn’t need more musks. In fact, we need this current one gone, urgently.

His racist megalomania was always there, it just needed this ev stuff as a way to get there. It’s the simps who empower him. You all need to grow the **** up.

Dude, you were already well behind when you admitted to being a Russell Brand fan.

I'll say something nice about Elon - he's not as big a campaigner as Brand.

Was that after these allegations of sexual assault came out?
