gm, oil watchers

don't call it a comeback, just enjoy the ride

@kbessey Oh, thank God. I was questioning myself.

[Jeffrey Lerman @JeffreyLerman]

As a homeowner and small-time real estate investor who has paid dearly into these development fees, and whose own self-interest would arguably favour lower property taxes, I still believe shifting the burden from development charges to higher property taxes make sense.

[Keaton Bessey @kbessey]

Make it $0

Increase property taxes

"Jesta went on to say that its buying strategy marks 'one of the largest single-firm' bulk residential acquisition the Toronto market has ever seen."

Poor countries will do without, while rich countries will pay more.

As predictable as it was frustrating.

Not always, apparently.

e.g. means for example. It is always followed by a comma.
i.e. is the abbreviation for the Latin "id est" or that is (to say). It is always followed by a comma, as well.

@harleyf @talkradiotommy Hits home. 🥹

My old man opened up and ran a business under the Algo umbrella for a brief period. Both him and my Zaide spent their entire working lives in the shmatta trade. Looking forward to watching.

How refreshing it is to watch the Artemis II press conference where the astronauts listen to each question, contemplate it for a moment, align as a team on who should answer, and then respond directly, respectfully – and sincerely.

This favorably compares with too many gonzo press conferences on Earth today, where the aim is not communicating but grandstanding with shameless self-promotion: talking over reporters, recycling mindless messaging, delivering disinformation, replacing content with clichés.

The difference is not just style. It’s also standards. Civility over chaos, brains trumping bullshit, information instead of idiocy.

It’s almost like the exceptional price volatility is driven by emotions or feelings.

Feels like the world is getting used to wars and “peace deals” being announced via tweets…like it’s all just a click of a button. That’s not how reality works. On the ground, this ongoing war is still disrupting energy flows and has shut in around 11.5M bpd of production. Yes, oil prices are down, but let’s be clear, nothing fundamental has actually changed. #OOTT

Social media would be so much easier without the media and, at times, the social.

93 years & 231 days old Ann Esselstyn dead hangs for 2 min 52 seconds! To set new WR. (Maybe we call it live hangs instead now?) Distal strength reflects many things.

@warren_weeks Unhinged.

The energy sector is up about 27% YTD while the s&p 500 is down about 1.5%. This gap will get bigger this week.

If your pension was divested from fossil fuels you would literally be working years longer to reach the same retirement financial goals.

@myownadvisor I would have taken out $120 to make the fee worth it.

Coffee shops should have a separate line for those of us who just want black coffee.
