  1. Arose is also my first word.
  2. Paypal will soon allow payment using 97 cryptos. I think that 97 cryptos shows they don't know what they are doing, and I also think they are going out of business before long. Anyway, the payment rails are being built now. I am installing cypto payments on my website, and even though it's first gen technology I am cutting my processing payment by 1%, understanding it will eventually be completely free. Everything from Zelle to ACH to Western Union is getting replaced with the blockchain. https://fortune.com/crypto/2025/07/28/paypal-100-cryptocurrencies-accept-merchants-bitcoin-ethereum/
  3. Quinn is gonna be Putin up big numbers in Miami!!!!!!
  4. To be clear what I meant by this. We are talking about practice. And I am so fucking excited I almost can't control myself.
  5. The cenobites freaked me the fuck out.
  6. Different family. I still have all my hair and bang 10's and go to the gym every once in a while.
  7. I started watching YouTube videos for watch fanatics after I bought my Breitling. I love Teddy Baldassare, he is great. This is one of my favorites.
  8. Are you the goofball who was claiming that no tariff inflation would be felt until next year? You are very unpleasant to deal with.
  9. Why? Any moron can read a government report.
  10. You mean someone who actually read the BLS report?
  11. That's a lot of words to say what I said above.
  12. I read the investor presentation and I do believe in the medical value of the treatment. On the other hand, who posts videos to Vimeo? It's still a company and they have to be able to operate and make a profit. Maybe try and do better marketing. If PSS is right, and he probably is, the drug will be useful across a wide variety of cancers, if not all of them. Hence the HUGE financial upside. But you still need a viable corporate entity and a rollout plan that involves making a profit. Revenues (not g ross margin) last Q were $24 million. Up 60%. But they have ~$80 million in expenses every quarter. Not quite paying the bills yet. I like the stock and am looking for an entry point. But the dilution isn't over yet. The whole thing, even if I trust PSS, seems a little janky. And definitely not about to turn the financial corner. I need to see more to get an entry point. Announcement driven companies are garbage to invest in. When you add the dilution problem it adds to the risk. So here is the key question I have about profitability. If Anktiva works, let's say, on every single type of cancer, does he have to fund a study for every single cancer type? Because if he does that, the Anktiva patent will expire before he is ever able to make serious money on the thing. What is the plan to roll it out and make money on it? Is he counting on off label use without actually doing all the studies? It seems like a unique problem that might hamstring the monetization of the obvious medical benefit.
  13. Yeah they will be the last to get taken over by AI. Low level office workers are what's getting hit right now. Love Mike Rowe.
  14. To answer that fully requires more time than I have. But it's not too different to how rest of our institutions are failing as well. There is a lot of built up nonsense over the years. This creates a kind of overhang that shifts the framing of conversation off of reality. The thing the controls inflation, mostly, is money supply. But the fed ignores money supply, and doesn't control interest rates. There is a generalized optimism bias on Wall Street. Everybody wants to make money and you can really only do that if things go up. The old joke is that everyone knows the price but nobody knows the value. Most people are traders, not investors, it's a short term thinking culture. I mean that's my guess but who really knows. I don't see conspiracy or political agenda in all of that.
  15. Make straight A's and get a high test score. After you get out of college it's who you are that matters. There is not much evidence that where you went to school makes you successful. There are a ton of rich college dropouts.
  16. The same is true of the all-black dorms at MIT and Harvard etc. It's technically not racist if you just socially exclude all the white people by making them unwelcome.
  17. Let's be honest. Meth, smoking, poor fashion sense and generalized obesity are far bigger problems. This is just the cherry on top of the shit sandwich.
  18. Jimmy you are out of your depth. You are the nonplayer character. You are the designated bagholder. You have my sympathy. But I want to contribute to the thread, so I am providing employment numbers below. Perhaps you could explain to connection of employment to home prices? From April to June, over two months, the US lost 600k jobs. Hourly wages are also down. Of course both employment reports were reported as "great outcomes" from mainstream media sources. The Fed, if you follow this, is also echoing the "going gangbusters" narrative. Nobody wants people like Jimmy to get their knickers in a bunch about the economy.
  19. https://www.noradarealestate.com/blog/will-the-texas-housing-market-crash-as-prices-drop-across-the-state/ https://www.realtor.com/news/trends/florida-home-prices-dropping-top-cities-miami/ https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-07-24/housing-tracker-for-june What's happening, in addition to the high end staying high, but with new homes is that the big builders are offering incentives that used to be worth 2% of the sales price, and now are worth 12% of the sales price ( I can't recall which one is doing this). However, the actual "sales price" doesn't change.
