Every lifelong Catholic I've ever met is like "I think we're supposed to give this food to poor people" and every adult convert is like "the Archon of Constantinople's epistle on the Pentacostine rites of the eucharist clearly states women shouldn't have driver's licenses."

I was born an underdog. 21 surgeries by the age of 12 for spina bifida. A kid wearing goodwill hand-me-downs. I knew nothing would come easy, but I never doubted my right to the American dream.

Now, I'm running for the U.S. Senate to make sure all Iowans have a shot at theirs.

@VinnyLingham potential egg man situation though? https://t.co/SAxbWCPFXt

[Peter Schiff @PeterSchiff]

Michael Saylor is the Egg Man. His latest announcement is that $MSTR will spend another $42 billion to buy #Bitcoin, funded by issuing $21 billion in debt and $21 billion in equity over the next three years. This reminds me of a joke I heard a long time ago.

A client calls his broker inquiring about egg futures and is quoted a price of 25 cents per contract. Having a hunch about the egg market, he buys 100 contracts. A week later, he calls his broker to get a quote. Pleased to learn that the price per contract has risen to 35 cents, he decides to buy another 1,000 contracts. A few days later, eager to check on the progress of his investment, he is amazed to learn that the price has now risen to 50 cents per contract, twice the price he paid for his original 100 contracts. Sensing a trend, he steps it up, this time buying 100,000 contracts. The next day, ecstatic to learn that the price per contract has now risen to 65 cents, he gets even more aggressive, buying 1,000,000 contracts. Sure enough, the following day, the price per contract rises to 95 cents, prompting him to order an additional million contracts. The day after that, as rising prices further validate his intuition, he buys yet another million contracts, this time paying $1.25.

The next day, with egg contracts trading at $1.75, he senses that the market has risen too far too fast, and places an order to sell 2,000,000 contracts. After a pregnant pause, his broker replies, "Sell to whom, you're the egg man!"

I think this is true of the 99.9%, not the 0.1%.

The ultimate luxury now is living in a reality so good it beats the digital simulacrum, and your livelihood isn't tied up with sharing that fact.

The wealthiest people I know engage with online maybe as a forum of ideas, but otherwise it absolutely does not supplant their 'real' lives (in which many rare, exclusive, non-digital things are very much happening).

Digital is for the proles: an analog world around you so good it's better than IG slop is the real luxury.

The ultimate privilege is 'reality privilege'. Everyone else gets the pixels.

What should be an excellent opportunity to coalition build will be totally missed because conservative environmentalists wouldn't be caught DEAD being mistaken for liberal environmentalists. This semantic nit-picking might cost us our public lands.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

I'm very opposed to the plan. The biggest "environmentalists" in the country are, and have always been, conservatives who like to hunt and fish. We just don't call ourselves environmentalist because the label has too much baggage and in practice always just means communist.

Really we are naturalists in the tradition of Teddy Roosevelt. And that's why most of us hate the idea of selling off federal lands to build "affordable housing" or whatever. Preserving nature is important. It's a shame that we've allowed conservation to become so left wing coded. It never was, historically.
