👋 there.

I sue (1) debt collectors (2) banks (3) credit repair companies (4) credit bureaus and (4) employers for screwing people over. I’ve been called the “boogeyman” by numerous clients. I seek blood between periods of playing possum.

BTC Maximalist + Consumer Protection + Free Speech is my DNA.

There are no laws to stop this from happening again with the next "pandemic."

[Dr Jordan B Peterson @jordanbpeterson]

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

Can’t believe we fell for this. The “virus” was from a US lab, treatments were intentionally hidden and thousands died because of our “leaders” deceit. We were conned by both sides and it continues today; different weapons, same agenda - all in the name of profit and control.

Reminder that if you are fully vaccinated and up to date on boosters, you are allowed to celebrate the Fourth of July.

Those vaccinated are even permitted to have a very small backyard barbecue. Five person maximum.

WHAT THE FUCK

This is real

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

WARNING: Longer post (but worth reading or bookmarking for later).

Your life has seasons.

Each one is unique. Characterized by its own distinct desires, struggles, opportunities, and identity.

But one reflection I've had recently is just how easy it is to completely disassociate with the present season.

To give all your time and energy toward a longing for some nostalgic memory of a prior season or an anticipation for some beautiful state of a future season.

You look back at the past and all you see is sunshine. Because it all worked out. You forget (or glaze over) the struggle you endured. You're here today. You made it. You're alive. You're doing fine.

You look forward at the future and dream on what could be. You'll have so much more. More freedom. More purpose. More health. More deep connection. More everything.

The past is beautiful and the future feels limitless. So, logically, you slowly start to treat everything about the present as the bridge. A dash connecting your past and your future. A gap to be crossed as quickly as possible.

Everything you do today is in anticipation of some eventual end state.

I'm doing this now, so that I can have that later.

Unfortunately, the danger of that dissociation with the present is significant. You may spend your entire life living for a future that has a decidedly mirage-like property. You inch closer, but when it's right in front of you, it disappears and reappears on the horizon.

You may spend your entire life skipping through the present, deferring your presence, your joy, and your very humanity to a future that never comes.

In a classic French fable, a young boy is gifted with a magic ball of golden thread. He's told that if he simply pulls on the thread, time will leap forward. The catch, of course, is that once it's pulled, it can never be put back.

The young boy takes advantage of the newfound powers. Each time he's faced with a boring day at school, a frustrating set of chores, or a scolding from his parents, he pulls the thread, skipping through to the good parts.

As an adult, he continues, leaping through mundane struggles in his marriage, the friction of having a newborn, and the boredom at work. He finds himself pulling on the thread more and more, avoiding even the most minor inconveniences of his life.

But when he wakes up one day and sees an old man looking back at him in the mirror, he's filled with regret. He realizes in that moment that as he chose to skip through the boredom, struggles, and friction, so too did he miss the real texture of being alive.

How often do we all do the same? How easily do we default into this disassociation? Disconnecting from the present in anticipation of some future.

A mentor recently asked me this:

"Where are you going and why are you in such a rush?"

It hit me hard.

And to be honest, I haven't stopped replaying those words since he said them.

Why are you in such a rush?

The world wants you to rush into everything. Rushed decisions. Rushed conversations. Rushed relationships. Rushed timelines.

In doing so, you slowly relinquish your agency. You give up your claim on your own life. Surrender authorship to a pen that was never even yours.

In a world that wants you to rush, the ultimate act of rebellion is presence.

Be in the season you're in. Don't romanticize the past, don't fantasize the future. Be here. Be now. Be in this. All of its texture, depth, and struggle. All of its joy, tension, and pain. Sit with the uncertainty. Become friends with it. Fall in love with it.

Because every single thing you do today is something your younger self dreamed of and something your older self will wish they could go back and do.

The good old days are happening, right now.

And the next time you find yourself skipping through the present, remember these words:

Where are you going and why are you in such a rush?

[Eric Weinstein @ericweinstein]

Fair point. I worry about this too.

First: our model of “The Elite” is just wrong. There are totally different circles that barely touch each other. So no one I know knows what “The Elite” are doing.

Seattle has Tech Billionaires that Barely know of the NYC financial Billionaires, let alone know them personally. Even Seattle Tech Billionaires don’t know Silicon Valley Billionaires all that well. They are mostly minding their own shops.

The Scientific Elite in Cambridge Massachusetts don’t know the Science Policy Elite representing them in Washington DC/N. Virginia AT ALL and are always shocked when I tell them what is being done in their name.

The Scientific Elite in Biology don’t know the Scientific Elite in Physics.

The retail elite don’t hang out with the pharma elite or big food elite except by accident or some bottleneck like fundraising, vacationing, schools, collecting, etc.

So there is no “The Elite”.

—————-

Next once you understand that there is no “The Elite”, the next thing you learn is that Elite Circles worry about each other a lot. I know a lot of wealthy/powerful people terrified of Bill Gates. “What is he doing with global health and vaccines?? Why is he buying farmland?? What is he plotting??” So that’s definitely a thing. The Elite circles fear each other because they compete mostly with each other. Not you or me.

—————

Next: Are the elite circles preparing for doomsday?

Some are. Some aren’t. Most that I know, aren’t prepping.

Most who are have very silly plans. 6 months of canned goods, a few deisel generators and 2 Ex-special forces guys in a luxury bunker on 7500 acres in Wyoming that you brag about, are not going to get you far in a post apocalyptic world. Call it a hunch.

A small number have rather more serious plans. But it cuts into their usable wealth and time. So it’s not a slam dunk that it is a good idea to try to outlive a major pandemic or nuclear war.

——

Last: the Elite don’t always know they are the Elite. I have been at tables with several Billionaires where they complain about the Rich and Powerful.

No one feels all that powerful at the moment. Everyone I know is subject to being sued, blindsided, betrayed, ignored, sidelined, outplayed, divorced, humiliated, smeared in the press or made the target of an online lynch mob.

——-

So, to sum it up. There is no widespread doomsday event known generally to “The Elite” but not the public of which I am aware. Believe me. You’d know. Many of them would have told you…and they are worried just as you are.

I didn’t know all that many powerful people for most of my life.

What I have learned in the last 20 years of having met a few:

Wealth and Success changes a lot, but much much much less than you’d think. No one feels all that powerful. We are still all just slobs with family issues trying to get from A to B and have a few laughs with our loved ones before it’s all over.

Sorry. Maybe there is a level above this, but I sure haven’t seen it.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Republicans are in charge because we promised:

to Make America Healthy Again.
to start No New Wars,
to put people above corporations,
to put America above foreign countries,
to release the Epstein files,
to not spy on citizens,
to eliminate fraud,

what the hell happened?!

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

Just in the week leading up to the election, AIPAC has purchased over $1.5 million of anti-Massie advertising and Miriam Adelson’s superPAC has purchased $1 million of anti-Massie advertising.

FCRA attorney here. I sue for inaccurate credit report harm. LMK if you need help. Search dispute letter online. Ai is actually decent too. Send CM to all 3 bureaus. Show evidence. Long letter. Make it impossible a reasonable person would disagree with you. If not removed you sue. They pay your lawyer. You get it fixed. Maybe some cash and a free lawyer. Dispute has to go to credit bureaus. That’s what triggers the cause of action if they fail to remove.

[Robert W Malone, MD @RWMaloneMD]

A virus or some other pathogen emerges somewhere in the world.
The media shifts into apocalyptic mode.
"Experts" appear to be predicting catastrophe.
Computer models project millions dead, if the right circumstances coalesce.
Politicians declare emergencies.
Pharmaceutical companies announce new products.
Social media turns into a digital panic attack.
And ordinary people, who just wanted to buy eggs and walk the dog, suddenly feel like civilization is one cough away from collapse.
Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
This is how psychological bioterrorism works.
The pathogen itself matters less than the emotional payload attached to it.

[Rep. Anna Paulina Luna @RepLuna]

My amendment passed! Pesticide liability protections have been stripped from the farm bill. 🔥⚔️🔥

[KingSlipper @fdcpaguy]

Americans - Starting in 2027 AI will determine if our cars start - NOT US. Eventually, if we’re stressed our cars will have the ability to refuse to start. This is not okay. Our leaders hate us.

[Robert W Malone, MD @RWMaloneMD]

And yet here we are...
Thanks to the RINO Congress critters that sided with the Demoncrats, this is coming our way in 2027.
Used cars are going to sky rocket in value...

FOUR independent datasets from THREE countries have now confirmed that COVID shots induced a CANCER EPIDEMIC

1. U.S. government SEER cancer data (+6.4% surge in early-onset cancers since 2021)

2. CDC WONDER mortality data (138,000 excess cancer deaths since 2021)

3. South Korean study of 8.4 MILLION (increased risk of SIX major cancers)

4. Italian study of 300,000 (increased risk of THREE major cancers)

WHY ISN’T THIS FRONT PAGE NEWS?

[Resist CBDC 🏁 @Resist_CBDC]

So Congress, including Republicans, passed laws allowing your car to spy on you, which is hugely unpopular, but can’t pass voter ID, which is hugely popular.

[Brian Roemmele @BrianRoemmele]

I don’t work in AI every day since 1979, no, I work in AI every minute of each day.

I am robustly in opposition to AI lock-outs for any reason.

You should be too.

It is not nuanced. It is the minimum contract an automaker has with the purchaser.

You can stop this.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Don’t forget what they did to us. I stood alone in the House of Representatives against this.

[Brian Roemmele @BrianRoemmele]

Now at number 9.

Hi @Grok, is Israel spraying chemical agents over green areas in Lebanon and Syria to eradicate plant life? Be concise.

saying "hello" to Claude on the Pro plan now costs 2% of your entire session usage

one message. "hello, how are you?" that's it.

this is why people are mass migrating to Codex right now because its literally impossible to reach limits

anthropic needs to fix this before they lose the crazy amount of developers they just gained

[Bruce Fenton @brucefenton]

I’m a Republican. I supported Trump. I raised money for him, I voted for him. I donated $60,000 to his campaign.

Trump lied. He rugpulled us all. I didn’t vote for Lindsey Graham / America Second policies.

You can disagree with me if you want. It’s your right to be fooled. But if you say I have “TDS” or am a “liberal” you need a new argument. There are millions of conservatives and members of the now torched “broad coalition” just like me.

The only ones left supporting him are MAGA always Trumpers who place the man above the policies and our country.
