uhm, Gemini 42 is one of the 15 companies I tracked and uncovered months back. They own it.

Yes I know, I fully assume that is true but not seen any proof of who owns it online though.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

Finally got the time to read the emails. Beer, you should feel proud. You owned the management of a 100m company so hard that the VP of marketing had a forums style meltdown and multiple self owns. Owned so hard she's reading this message right now and it is effecting her irl, dude.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35K6vQRt67g

You see the name on the forum post
posting gold on every smear piece
and it says grand admiral
that name is me

in the photos of the supporters
there's no question why I'm smiling
I bought a piece of paradise
I bought a piece of dream

It'll get me everything I wanted
It'll get me everything I need
don't need to believe in the Derek
just believe in dreams

Chorus:
Cos Roberts he knows me
and he knows I'm rich
I've been buying from Roberts - I'm his bitch
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm rich
and he's been telling me
that I can buy more ships

Embezzling from the family
with my ever loving wife beside me
but she don't know about my Idris
or the Hull I bought last night

Do you believe in Chris
cos that's what I'm buying
and if you wanna fly some spaceships
he'll see you right

I won't even have to leave my house
or get outta my chair
I don't even have to click that link
the 'verse's right here

(Chorus)

won't find him practicing what he's preaching
wont' find him making no sacrifice
but he can get you a battleship or mining ship
if you promise to post well, try to post nice
Chris will take good care of you
just do as he says, don't do as he do

I'm counting my starships
I've found true happiness
cos I'm getting poorer, day by day
I can find them on the website
just buy each shiny starship
I can do it any time I want
before it's out of stock

There can be no doubt in my mind
I believe everything he's saying
if I want to get closer to him
get on the 'net and start paying

(chorus)

So much of it fits without modification. I considered doing it from Chris's point of view but for that I could just replace "God" with "ships" and "Jesus" with "Backers" and call it a day.
