@T_upnation@pcet2022 Mate, there’s no point trying to talk sense into these socialist psychos who think every lazy unemployed person happily collecting welfare is a victim of a central bank conspiracy to rob these people LOL not worth your breath
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese wants to leverage the country’s $4.5 trillion superannuation pool as a national asset, but banking chief Anthony Miller has pushed back. https://t.co/lfEA8s25B7
Your median professor sits so far left that AOC, Sanders, and Warren would count as moderates in any faculty lounge.
Faculty from 55 elite universities form one towering blue spike of ideology far out on the left, density exploding past 6, with virtually nothing on the conservative side.
This was built through decades of selective hiring, social enforcement, and the systematic purge of dissent.
And because they credential the people who run media, law, government, and tech, the monoculture leaks into every elite institution downstream.
@AndreasSteno It does need an overhaul but it is important to note that the US system while shitty does subsidize novel drug and medical technology innovations which the rest of the world benefits from
If I give it access to my Gmail, calendar and credit card with a spending limit, I should just be able to be like “hey I need new Brooks running shoes, can you buy me the best priced ones” and it should be like “you bought Brooks Defyance running shoes 4 times before so I went ahead and bought them again in your size from X website. free returns if it doesn’t work out”
Boom! That’s the AI assistant I actually need.
Also popular restaurant reservations that require credit card etc. I was to say “Hey Gemini my birthday is in 2 months, can you book me a reservation at an awesome spot that’s hard to get” and wether it’s open table or seven rooms it should just go and book it especially if my chrome browser has my account details saved in it.
@joshwoodward@mattwatkajtys@GeminiApp@NotebookLM Yeah JFC Gemini literally tries so hard to bring in references from past conversations. It’s trying to be relatable but comes off as weird more often than not. I’ll be asking about trying to get my dog to stop doing X and it’s like “as an ultramarathon athlete you know full well”
You’re supposed to use every unfair advantage you have. Connections, looks; money, all of it.
You're not noble by picking the hardest path just to look like an underdog.
One of the most important aspects of the Invest America / Trump Accounts is that it allows wealthy individuals and corporations to give philanthropic dollars directly to fellow citizens without any bureaucratic or corrupt NGOs and charities extracting their fees.
@GreenTyler27 Bullock’s staff will learn a great lesson on playing hardball for a 15% pay rise and then next year find out 25% of research and analytics staff have been replaced by AI agents with the next 25% laid off 2 years later
@torchandzen@RupTroop@DanielPriestley If you make a good income paying 50% tax your whole life and build up your assets incl your house and shares etc and then you die and your kids inherit you house and other assets - should your kids have to pay 50% tax again even though you already paid tax your whole life?
For those with a grudge against their own country, it’s sustained mass migration, especially from countries with quite different cultures, that’s the surest and swiftest way to change and punish a place that’s irredeemably tainted by unforgivable sin. This is done in order to dilute and eventually to extinguish the Anglo-Celtic core culture and the Judaeo-Christian foundational ethos (which is actually what attracts migrants to the Anglosphere) that today’s left-establishment finds so suffocating and judgmental. And it’s to encourage migrants to “other” themselves by funding ethnic activism under Orwellian slogans like “our diversity is our unity” or “our diversity is our strength”.
In this regard, migrants from Islamic countries are especially useful, because belief in a global caliphate, and the conviction that it’s the Koran rather than the legislature that validates law, starts to make pluralist democracy unworkable. To green-left, cultural-Marxist governments, mass migration from the “global south” is not a problem; it’s the plan. It’s the way for supposedly unjustly rich countries to atone for their white privilege and to apologise to poorer ones by becoming more like them.

@TranslucideUS@Scaramucci@saylor Problem is they over-extended themselves and should have been holding back a portion of cash from stock and preferred sales for debt servicing for bear market scenarios
@TranslucideUS@Scaramucci@saylor A premium of maybe 10-15% of NAV is reasonable on the basis of the ability to use strategic financial instruments to increase BTC holding in a way that doesn’t burden the company with more monthly coupon payments (ie 0% converts) etc etc
She could've given five thousand Michelangelos five million dollars, instead it all went towards educating homeless people about climate change racism.
