@dapppunk@paulg@AsyncCollab@eigenrobot I buy into companies because I’ve bought into how they’re changing the world…
Probably why I avoid crypto - not interested in parking my money in something that’s only about appreciation.
I trade derivatives to take advantage of price movement…

For decades, America has been the world's medicine chest. More than 70% of new medicines launched over the last decade debuted here first. Policymakers should think twice before importing the price-control policies that leave patients overseas waiting for treatment.

Occasionally, I see posts from other people who wonder why California doesn’t pave over its incredibly productive farmland.
This area in particular produces ~$5 billion per year, and without it, salad greens would become a scarce commodity in the US.
@HillaryClinton
Ma’am, I was the Air Force Lt. Colonel who carried the nuclear football for your husband inside that “people’s house” you’re suddenly so precious about. I saw it all up close for two years.
While Bill was getting blow jobs in the Oval Office from an intern and groping female Air Force enlisted crew on Air Force One, you and your staff treated the military with open disdain, like we were the help, not the men and women sworn to protect this nation. The disrespect for anything non-Clinton was palpable.
You lecture about “respect for the institution” while your husband lost the nuclear codes and shrugged it off.
And when you finally slinked out in 2001? You and your crew trashed the place—vandalism, theft, glue in drawers, obscene messages, stolen property, and filth left behind for the next administration. The GAO confirmed it. Classy exit from the “people’s house.”
The White House belongs to the American people, not your grifting dynasty. They just elected a fighter who actually respects the military and the office. Keep ripping off poor kids in Haiti, selling your merch and clutching pearls.
Sit down, bitch. The adults are back in charge.
@bscholl@StephenFleming But lithium batteries can’t be checked…
Under seat space has random limitations. And some airlines like @SouthwestAir can’t tell what’s a small bag… 🤡
@sfchronicle There are lots of gay people that just want to enjoy the game in peace and not force people to wear a hat. And they really don’t want some kind of witch hunt on some dudes who didn’t want to wear the hat. Let it be.
The biolab story have always been a great tell for who is actually against the deep state and who isn't
Notice the exact same people who were behind the Wuhan lab coverup are attacking anyone who discusses the biolabs
Great litmus test
DERNIÈRE MINUTE : La chaîne publique australienne ABC News vient d’accuser @elonmusk d’« incitation aux tensions raciales » à Belfast pour ne pas avoir censuré les images montrant un réfugié soudanais tentant de décapiter quelqu’un.
La colère monte davantage contre Elon que contre l’agresseur.

my voice d3adpan. "I paid for your exclusive time for this route. If you’re taking another passenger, you're violating the terms. Pull over and let me out."
"Bro, it's just one guy," he muttered, sounding annoyed.
"Pull over," I repeated, louder this time. "Right now."
He saw me pulling out my phone to take a screenshot of his dual-phone setup. He aggressively cursed under his breath, swerved back toward the main road, and canceled the other ride on his second screen.
He didn't say another word the entire trip, driving like he was in a Fast and Furious movie just to get me out of his car.
@Andercot@bscholl@aphysicist Found website in your profile but registration isn’t working. Google version gives a security violation and link request has yet to send an email.
@FloppingAces@mandylorianm You might be interested to know that the FBI did nothing for 15 months after several Olympic gymnasts filed a report about Larry Nassar. None of them give two shits about the girls, the athletes. They protect policies, reputations and their cronies.
USA. A gas station register. I was three cents short, and what happened next has quietly ruined my life.
The cashier did not sigh. She did not wait. She reached into a small dish beside the register, took three pennies, and paid my debt with them. "There you go, hon."
I asked whose coins those were.
"Take a penny, leave a penny," she said, pointing at a sign, as if those six words explained the dish, the store, and the entire country.
A tiny treasury. Open. Unguarded. By the door. Fed by anyone, for anyone. No ledger. No guard. No interest.
Let me be clear about what occurred: I, the head of an eight-hundred-year house, was bailed out at a gas station by an anonymous dish.
I could not sleep that night. A debt is a debt. The dish had stood for me. I would stand for the dish.
I returned the next morning with three pennies, plus one for honor. The cashier said I didn't have to do that. I returned the day after with five more. She said, "Sir, it's a penny dish." By Friday she had stopped explaining and simply waved when I came in.
A man does not ask three cents to be nothing. He returns four, and keeps returning.
The dish is now full. She says it has never been so full. Other customers have started adding to it — possibly out of confusion, possibly because a full dish invites fullness. Yesterday a man took two pennies and left a quarter. The economy of the doorway is booming.
I borrowed three cents. The debt was small.
The honor was not.
The cashier calls me "the penny guy" now. I came to this country with one name, eight hundred years old. I have since been Banana, and now the penny guy. I answer to all of them. Of course I answer to all of them.
