i have only ever been in SYP index funds, but I guess these days that’s essentially like being market weight a significant portion to the Mag Seven with all the “it’s definitely a bubble!” risk that comes with that. I presume at some point that means I will “own” SpaceX (and probably OpenAI and / or Anthropic). Always find it surreal people get off on the gambling aspect of putting it *all* on 7, 12, and 33 on the roulette wheel
@mattyglesias@JeremiahDJohns@MariGO2thepolls perhaps they would have *had* Trump won in 2020 and the vaccine become known as “Trump’s vaccine”…. wasn’t that long ago that all the Whole Foods moms were anti-vaccine and RFK was getting applause on Real Time
I have an irrational dislike for Timothee but the dude literally grew up blocks from MSG. It’s not a stretch to think he’s always been a rabid Knicks fan
sunk costs… Jim Farley is a believer in EVs and is *trying*, but it’s sad go read the press and see this is *basically* just them trying to do a v1 Model 3 but with a small truck…and I just don’t see how this is gonna be a big seller or how they can get costs low enough. Problem is a TON of people love the idea of a small truck, but only as a low cost *3rd* car
as for the NHL, I was introduced to hockey upon moving to upstate NY in the summer of 1994 right as the Rangers won the Cup. I guess it was a sign of my early stage contrarianism that this allowed me to basically pick my own favorite team and I settled on the Red Wings (probably because of their ratings in NHL ‘94)
as a small market lifer (Saints / Pelicans), i have complicated relationships with the NBA and what the inherent enable…sure, it’s not impossible to overcome (just look at the Spurs), but still you got people like Chuck crackin on your city calling your women portly, etc and to some degree it sets you up more times than not to basically be the Washington Generals to a handful of coastal team’s Globetrotters
@Philip_DT that said, there are TikTok’s about folks in the NBA who were told they were injured because they wore the wrong size shoes, half of their careers
@FreddyLA7 one time there was a football game between LSU & Auburn and a building behind the place where you just walked up caught fire and the visuals were INSANE
