@tonyposnanski @EricTaylor415 Also, that’s an Old Testament verse…savior?

@hausofdecline @Daramgaria Exactly this! Influence and help or aid or succor are two different categories of things and you bring your maturity and lessons learned to these situations

OK, there were two potentially rational strategies (with proponents of both in violent disagreement)

1) Don’t start a war at all

2) Start and continue a war until you clearly win

I’m not arguing for either here.

But starting a war, reducing a cancer but not killing it always being the worst idea possible, and then stopping by doing your best Obama-deal imitation, seems to be the worst possible strategy. If Dr. Strange went through millions of scenarios he’d say “this is the only one we lose in.”

Oh, and while the agreement is to stop fighting, there is nothing close to an agreement on Iran’s nuclear program which, uh, WAS THE WHOLE FREAKING POINT. Trump actually says something like “they don’t even want a nuclear weapon anymore.” If anyone believes that they aren’t merely dumb they are “call the Guinness people (the world record ones not the brown ale ones though they might be useful too) we have found the dumbest person” dumb. Trump doesn’t believe that. Yes the Iranian terrorists wouldn’t take a nuke if we built it for them now. Right.

Why is this happening? Hard to be precise.

Doing this to appease the woke right whose ire you underestimated is just disgusting cowardice.

Doing it to drive oil prices down before the midterms is grossly incompetent as you really didn’t know oil prices would soar? Really? Nobody in war planning knew that? That’s new information to you? And if you care about the midterms so much why’d you endorse the disgusting “disqualified in any rational world” (yes, along with Platner) Paxton in Texas putting it play?

None of this makes any sense at all. Horrible. Just horrible.

@calvinfroedge Because you don’t need them. Not hard to find white people on any genetic app, after all.

You might find something like this in places w a big ex pat community, though, but it would likely be under that guise…

@TheFlowHorse @TradingStable Ruthlessly prioritizing family time is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

[David Dubbert @ddubbert]

Ah yes, the leftist internet, where providing a good life for your kids makes you a bootlicker. Really winning the hearts and minds, there…

Are you telling me my tax dollars are being sent to rebuild all the shit that Pete Hegseth blew up also with my tax dollars

@JeromeTheHero1 @MidwestHedgie @charloofers What the fuck are you on about?

[David Dubbert @ddubbert]

@CliffordAsness The public perception of this guy has swung so dramatically and it’s so well deserved.

[Claire, aka Midwestern Hedgie 🏳️‍⚧️ 🇱🇧 @MidwestHedgie]

People often ask me for advice about getting started in finance and "The road to snatched is long and full of ouchies" is about the best advice i can offer for that or anything else in life. That, and go where you are valued.

Truly wild that this weekend we have a UFC white on the south lawn for Trump's birthday

Things most Americans agree on:

Groceries cost too much.

Tariffs suck and make no sense.

Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.

The debt is a mess.

The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.

Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.

Americans are exhausted.

AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.

Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.

Canadians are super fucking cool.

Mexicans are chill.

Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.

Good neighbors are a blessing.

Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.

We all question, are we alone in the universe?

We all fuck up along the way.

Epstein didn’t hang himself.

The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.

The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!

Things we’re told to fight about:

Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.

That’s the joke.

@HunterBiden @chiky_handlr Don’t knock yourself for clearing a low bar! Imagine if you didn’t clear it

[David Dubbert @ddubbert]

You could end up with another Trump

do not ever wish for your opponents to be shitty because they might just win
