    Baring some complete unforeseen economic collapse, June is now definitely off the table and cuts for the rest of 2024 are in question as well.

    Higher for longer.

    The 10 year can eat a dick

    Starting to see trickles of syndicated multifam bros blowing up. Evidently a lot of those deals involve ARMs or shorter term loans that have to rollover now at higher rates. They need they to come down. Glad I got out of my little piece of one a while back. 

  2. I thought this was a good description

    Hamas is evil. Hamas could end the war it started by surrendering its cadres and releasing its prisoners. Hamas refuses. Hamas would rather sacrifice the civilian population of Gaza on the altar of its genocidal ambition and suicidal desires. Hamas brutalizes children, abuses captives, steals food, fires its rockets indiscriminately, wears no uniforms, and hides behind schools, hospitals, and mosques. Hamas does not just commit war crimes. It is a war crime.

    Actually, what I and many others believe you were suggesting, was that the job growth actually indicated that a massive recession was forthcoming. I would assume that is why you and the original tweet highlighted the last two major RECESSIONS. Rosy as one may think aside, are you suggesting we're headed towards a massive recession like the one that was created by the financial crisis? Yes or no will do. 


     

    No. I wouldn’t speculate on the size any recession. But shedding full time jobs over several is not great for an economy. Looks like we’re due for a slowdown. Bad timing for Biden.

    Lets see. The Great Recession was caused by a specific event, the financial crisis of 2008. Covid was a trangible event, an outside force that fucked with jobs. 

    So uh, what's the suggested outside force in this instance? What's she suggesting? What're you suggesting? 

    It’s pretty simple really. I’m suggesting the economy isn’t as strong as the surface numbers suggest because we’re losing full time jobs. 
     

    1.8 million people have experienced the opposite of Jobsgiving the last 4 months.

    Someone please help Boss Hogg. “Haven’t seen the content disputed” when every outlet says it hasn’t been authenticated and fucking Project Veritas wouldn’t even run it.

    Happy Jobsgiving eve

     

    How would it be authenticated? Asking Ashley if it were authentic? She’s not going to answer that. 
     

    As for O’Keefe as it says in the NYT, “Less than a month before Election Day, in an Oct. 12, 2020, email that Project Veritas included in a court filing, Mr. O’Keefe told his team that he had made the decision not to publish a story about the diary, adding: “We have no doubt the document is real” but that reactions to its publication would be “characterized as a cheap shot.””

     

    His house ended up being raided by the FBI. A lot of pressure for a diary theft.

    Maybe read the article and you'll get clued in why the DOJ wants jail time for her now instead of home confinement. 

    I read it. 
     

    Haven’t seen the contents disputed. I guess Dark Brandon did strike back when he had a habit of showering inappropriately with his daughter.

    The Boeing situation and this thread are fascinating to me. The comments about not putting the MBA’s in charge of engineering or of airplane businesses are not that crazy. I have first hand experience.

    I have an engineering degree and worked as an engineer in the aerospace industry for several years. But then i got an MBA and ran companies for several years. So I’ve lived on both sides of the fence. 

    The issue is that the pure engineer who thinks solely like an engineer makes a terrible business leader. They think too linearly in black or white.

    But similarly a pure business leader with no product development expertise is often an absolute idiot, making dumb decisions about product quality, safety, timelines, costs, etc.  

    You have to be able to meld those two mindsets together to make optimal decisions. But often leaders with experience in both areas still screw up because they can’t effectively optimize their thinking. It took me a long time to really get better at ensuring businesses optimally mixed safety, quality, profitability, etc. But even then, if you report to people that don’t understand it, they will force you down the path of bad decisions.  A bad Board of Directors can be just as responsible for the failures.

    In my opinion there have been enough serious problems at Boeing that they need to redo the Board as well.

     

     

    Goes back to a former CEO from 2005-2015

    https://prospect.org/infrastructure/transportation/2024-03-28-suicide-mission-boeing/
     

    “Prince Jim”—as some long-timers used to call him—repeatedly invoked a slur for longtime engineers and skilled machinists in the obligatory vanity “leadership” bookhe co-wrote. Those who cared too much about the integrity of the planes and not enough about the stock price were “phenomenally talented assholes,” and he encouraged his deputies to ostracize them into leaving the company.

    You pretty recently called transgender individuals mentally ill. It's pretty obvious that you activity seek out being "pulled offsides" by bigoted garbage. Go fuck yourself.

    I did?

    That’s really a bigger philosophical discussion I guess. It’s traditionally been treated as a mental illness.

     

    I’ll say my gut tells me that 1% of the population being trapped in the wrong body is more than what is really the case.

    Nature vs nurture. We are actively promoting that gender is fluid through all media so no surprise that people coming up are more open to that. People look for groups to belong to.

    Yeah as well-intended as it is, it probably is not a politically savvy move.

    i don’t think it’s well intended, at all. It was intentional and the only way I can see to take it is, whoever actually runs this administration is openly hostile to Christians. 
     

    Wild times.
