Karl Marx never talked about skills. For him, all labor is worth the same.

But you see, of the 11 players in a football team, there’s only one Messi. His productivity and value are way higher than others.

Socialism is for dummies.

AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT A RIGHT-WING TECHNOLOGY

IT'S JUST A PUMP THAT MAKES A ROOM COLDER

Boomers absolutely killing it. On top of buying houses for cheap and indices pre covid, now all the Unc’s who worked at IBM Dell HP etc. getting one last big pump into retirement.

The only thing that stops violent men from raping you and your society are other men who are equally willing to be violent in stopping the rapists. The West has decided that the highest virtue is to quietly comply with the destruction of your civilization because to do otherwise is bigoted toward the rapists. It really is that simple.

⚡️Children remember the moments when the family becomes fully alive.

That is the core. Vacation is just the common vessel.

A child does not encode childhood as a spreadsheet of responsible parenting.

They encode atmosphere.

They remember the motel pool, the gas station stop, the smell of sunscreen, the weird restaurant, the long drive, the sunset, the parents laughing differently, the feeling that normal life cracked open and something larger appeared.

That is why ages 5 to 10 hit so hard. The child is old enough to form durable narrative memory and young enough for the world to remain enchanted. Parents still feel mythic. A beach, cabin, lake, theme park, road trip, or even a cheap rented house can become sacred geography.

The real mechanism is interruption of routine plus emotional safety.

Ordinary life teaches stability. Trips create myth. The family leaves the repeating loop of school, work, chores, screens, exhaustion, and time pressure. For a few days, the child experiences parents outside their normal roles. Mom and dad are no longer just managers of homework, food, discipline, bedtime, and logistics. They become companions inside an adventure.

That imprints.

The money matters far less than parents think. Luxury is mostly adult vanity. Children remember intensity, freedom, attention, surprise, and togetherness. A $200 trip can beat a $10,000 trip if the child feels wonder and the parents are emotionally present.

Many adults are starved because their childhood had no sacred interruptions. Everything was duty, stress, survival, noise, pressure, or emotional absence. No mythic family scenes. No private homeland in memory. No recurring proof that life could be warm and strange and alive.

That matters for the adult psyche. People draw from childhood memories during loneliness, fear, ambition, loss, and love. Those memories become inner architecture.

Deepest compression: a good childhood is not built only by protection. It is built by unforgettable shared worlds.

Take the kid somewhere. Break the loop.

Make the ordinary world disappear for a few days.

That becomes part of them forever.

The European Commission literally just dropped a research on how to collect more taxes without making you angry enough to leave.

TLDR: higher wealth taxes, inheritance taxes + exit tax is coming

ITALY IS DYING — AND THE NUMBERS ARE BRUTAL

Italy just recorded its lowest number of births since 1861.

Only 355,000 babies were born in 2025, while deaths reached 652,000 — a net loss of nearly 300,000 people in a single year.

The total fertility rate has collapsed to 1.14 children per woman, far below the 2.1 needed to sustain a population.
This isn’t a temporary dip.
It’s a long-term demographic collapse that threatens Italy’s entire future: shrinking workforce, collapsing pensions, aging society, and disappearing regions.
Without massive immigration, Italy’s population would be shrinking even faster.
This is what happens when birth rates stay critically low for decades.
Italy is the clearest warning sign for many other developed nations heading in the same direction.

This is how all “referendums” and “votes” go in a fundamentally captured system.

A thousand No’s all mean “Try Again”, but a single Yes means “pass it through and make it impossible to ever undo.”

[Michael A. Arouet @MichaelAArouet]

Venezuela used to be twice as wealthy as Chile. Then Chile adopted free-market capitalist principles while Venezuela chose socialism.

Now Chile is the wealthiest large country in South America and Venezuela the poorest.

Free markets work, socialism makes nations poor.

Standard European democracy. Repeat voting until they reach already decided answer of the central planning commission.

[@levelsio @levelsio]

And after voting that out too...

🇪🇺 ChatControl is back with a vengeance

The Conservatives (EPP) are attempting to force a new vote TODAY (March 26) seeking to reverse the European Parliament's NO on indiscriminate scanning of ALL your private messages, emails and photos

This is a direct attack on democracy and blatant disregard for your right to privacy

If you're European contact your representatives now, with this handy form:
https://t.co/Zypz9GS9hB

If not, please share this tweet so more people see it and we can block the vote

It's crazy they keep just bringing back whatever they want until it's passed!

Obviously now we see the European Commission is controlled by powerful evil lobbying groups 👺

@garrytan First, they take your liquid assets, potentially bankrupting you.

If the paper valuation never materializes, you’re still on the hook.

No discounts allowed for illiquidity or minority stake.

If your appraiser gets it wrong they’re personally penalized!

Higher taxes, digital ID, and digital currency are back on the table. Publicly dismissed before, quietly approved later. The EU vote says everything.
