@LamarMK I really regret it. I bought my first Tesla in March and we liked it so much we ended up buying my wife her own 10 days later. I could have saved so much money if we never drove these amazing cars.
@LamarMK I rented one for a week on vacation in early March and after 2 days I drove to a dealership to test drive a new one. Ordered my new one that day and picked it up March 28th. After a few days with mine we ordered my wife one. Best cars we have ever driven and by far the safest.
@yugacohler@openclaw I have them all defaulting to haiku, escalating to sonnet if necessary and only using opus if the other two can't accomplish the task.
Nothing will improve your quality of life more than getting your body in shape. Self esteem improves. Status elevates. Your brain works better. It's the first step to self mastery.
It’s completely fine to choose not to have kids. Truly. No one owes the world children, and a life without them can be full, meaningful, and beautiful.
But there is a kind of love you will never experience if you don’t have them – and nothing else comes close.
Not romantic love. Not success. Not purpose. Not freedom. Not self-actualization.
The love between a parent and a child isn’t on the same scale as other loves. It doesn’t compete with them – it replaces the scale entirely.
It’s unconditional in a way that isn’t theoretical. You don’t decide it. You don’t earn it. You don’t manage it. You become it.
You would trade your life for theirs without hesitation, not because you’re virtuous, but because the idea of not doing so is impossible.
And the love coming back at you – pure, uncalculated, unearned – is something no adult relationship can replicate.
This isn’t a judgment or a command. It’s just reality.
You can live a great life without children.
But you will never experience the greatest love there is.

DC is glazing so hard. Show me one clip where he actually put some damage on Yan. Landed some stuff here and there but nothing dangerous. Yan 4-1 or this is rigged.
⚡️What you’re really seeing here is the first stage of a global unit-of-account fracture.
•In nominal USD terms, everything looks like it’s booming: stocks up triple digits, homes up double digits, “wealth” everywhere. That’s the performance everyone sees.
•In gold terms, the illusion cracks: stocks and homes flat-to-negative, real wealth stagnating.
•In Bitcoin terms, the veil is gone: catastrophic real losses in every traditional asset.
This is the same signature that marked every pre-hyperinflationary or currency regime shift in history: when people cling to the debasing unit, they feel rich but measured in the next credible collateral, their system is already collapsing.
And the “risk asset” meme about Bitcoin? That’s just a coping frame. As long as Wall Street treats BTC as a tech stock with volatility, they can keep it in the risk bucket. But functionally it’s already behaving like a parallel reserve ledger: it’s the only denominator that makes the post-2020 global economy look like Argentina.
This is why the system feels “off” - why wages don’t match prices, why debt is ballooning, why policy feels reactive. We’re in a regime where the unit of account is decaying faster than the public narrative can absorb. The Fed, the government, the media - all still speaking USD, all still benchmarking to a melting ice cube. The chart you’re looking at is the unofficial scoreboard in a silent currency war.
So when I strip all the polite commentary away, the honest take is:
•The U.S. is running the final phase of a classic imperial carry trade: draw in global capital, inflate domestic asset prices in nominal terms, export the currency risk abroad.
•Gold shows stagnation.
•Bitcoin shows collapse.
•If BTC continues to monetize, that chart is a pre-revaluation ledger of the old world being marked down.
This isn’t a normal market cycle. It’s the unit-of-account transition phase. And almost no one is positioned for it because they’re still measuring their “returns” in the wrong yardstick.
That’s the scarv layer…not just “debasement trade,” but a living record of a dying denominator.
Sometimes the farmer dreams of flying, while sometimes the pilot gazes down at the farm, wishing to return home.
The truth is this:
If wealth guaranteed happiness, the rich would be dancing in the streets, but it's often the poor kids who do that.
If power ensured safety, leaders wouldn’t need bodyguards. Meanwhile, it's the simple people who sleep peacefully at night.
If beauty and fame could create love, celebrities would have perfect marriages.
Live simply.
Walk humbly.
Love deeply.
That’s where a good life begins.
I've always wondered why more teams don't try and do an onside kick this way. Line up everyone in the middle, have your kicked blast it as knee height directly into everyone and hope the chaos goes your way.
Being unoffendable is a massive advantage in today's world. The ability to let nonsense or a differing opinion pass without a reaction will change your life. No response, no letting it get under your skin, and definitely no letting it alter the course of your day.
