Chinese President Xi Jinping saw that a portrait of President Biden, who once called him a dictator, was no longer displayed on the wall and had been replaced by a picture of an automatic pen. He laughed so hard he nearly doubled over! 🤣
Xi Jinping likes Trump because he believes Trump doesn’t bring up China’s political system. During Trump’s first term, after the U.S.-China confrontation, China came to recognize this.
In the past, virtually every U.S. president, along with Washington’s foreign-policy establishment, the broader China-policy establishment, Democrats focused on human rights, and Republican hawks such as Marco Rubio, would put China’s political system at the top of the agenda in virtually every discussion involving China.

“The priest who wedded us told us to act as harlots in our bedrooms and be creative. Women, stop putting on jeans and bonnets in your bedroom. Have frequent sex to avoid stress and improve your heart health. Stop using sex as a weapon.” Afande Mucunguzi

André Rieu conducting a large orchestra and choir in an outdoor evening performance of “Nearer, My God, to Thee” before a massive crowd is deeply moving. The hymn’s spiritual origins make the performance even more powerful.
Sarah Flower Adams wrote the lyrics in 1841, inspired by Jacob’s dream of a ladder reaching heaven in Genesis 28. She wrote them while nursing her seriously ill sister. The words were later paired with Lowell Mason’s popular tune, “Bethany”.
Adams, a Unitarian poet who died at the age of 43, built the hymn around themes of pilgrimage, suffering and drawing closer to God. Its enduring place in cultural memory was strengthened by accounts that it was played during the sinking of the Titanic.
It remains one of the most profound hymns ever written.

Michael Bloomberg to Warren Buffett & ex-CEO of Goldman Sachs: "I would like to hire the person whose father never was there, whose mother was in a drug treatment program, and he had to go and work three shifts at McDonald's to take care of his siblings."
this is him explaining who he refuses to hire no matter what, why he says you are unlikely to hire from Harvard, Yale or Princeton, and that this is fine, and what he tore down to run a company of twenty thousand
"don't hire your relative, don't hire your friend, unless you absolutely have to"

Private jets fly empty every day. Hundreds of them.
The passenger lands. The plane needs to get home. Those seats are going to waste at full fuel burn regardless of whether anyone is sitting in them.
We call them "dead legs". One of the most consistent inefficiencies in private aviation.
The operator would love to sell those seats at a discount. The buyer would love to fly private at a fraction of the normal cost. Both sides are motivated.
And yet the market still runs through individual brokers making phone calls.
Someone needs to build the marketplace that connects operators and buyers in real time.
The technology definitely exists. The demand is obviously there.
What doesn't exist is the platform.
