  1. That was some of the most insane racing I've ever seen.
  2. The people are great. The government not so much.
  3. What was actually going on was that YouTube was pushing to create TV on the internet, pushing corporate content like CNN and MSNBC, and those videos were all getting disliked intensely. If you have the app, you can still see it. Never click on those videos, you will get spammed with MSNBC or FOX videos for all eternity. In summary, YouTube sucks dicks and is run by women and emotion rather than logic and facts.
  4. I immediately got the app to add back the dislikes. And the worst decision they made was taking an extreme social marxist political position and engaging in censorship. They destroyed their own platform thinking they had an impenetrable monopoly.
  5. We are going vertical with the debt now. Printer goes brrrrrrr.
  6. A few weeks ago the OCC, which regulates banks, pushed out a new order enabling commercial banks to custody and buy/sell cryptos to customers. https://www.occ.gov/news-issuances/news-releases/2025/nr-occ-2025-42.html You are going to start seeing, when you open up your bank account, Checking, USD Savings, and Bitcoin/Tether accounts all listed together. The stablecoin bill, which is about to pass, is a serious problem for banks, because most banks are holding onto your cash and paying 0% interest, and for Visa/Mastercard who need their 2.5%. And when you have the option to save in a currency that doesn't depreciate to Bolivia and they're oh by the way they're not making more of it, you will do that too. Money printer going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
  7. Rate down go. know not yet. printer go brrrrrrrrr. No stop train.
  8. You are literally so braindead that you have no idea that you actually just made the strongest possible argument for bitcoin and against the US dollar LOL.
  9. Prepare for widespread reduction in living standards, absent an AI miracle. That said, I expect low inflation readings for the near term. Just like under ZIRP, when the economy can't grow it's really hard to have inflation. 30 year will break 5% but QE there will be a fiscal crisis and QE will bring rates back down to ZIRP, or else government goes bankrupt in the near term.
  10. I've always appreciated your sometimes brutal honesty.
  11. Probably my favorite phrase in English is "fecal urgency".
  12. This is vicarious embarrassment, however it's totally true. During a workplace spanish class, I'm sitting next to my buddy who lost his ring finger falling off a ladder when his wedding ring got hooked on the ladder or whatever. Instructor says "cuantos dedos tienes" and looks at him. I am sitting next to him and see the train wreck coming. I immediately start dying on the inside as he responds "nueve". She says "no no no, diez". I am dying and eventually can't control myself. He says "nueve". She responds "diez" again. I am physically and audibly losing my shit. He holds up his hand. Instructor proceeds to turn extremely green with shame. It was one of the most truly hilarious things I've ever seen.
