Have a great trip. I would like to go back to London some day. Very cool city.

@taiwan_girl said in Go Magat, Go Broke - Mike Lindell edition: @Horace said in Go Magat, Go Broke - Mike Lindell edition: It seems unlikely that he knew he was wrong. If you tell a lie long enough (to yourself), it will be believed (by yourself). That’s true. And controversial subjects are only rarely provable with pure logic and evidence. One can honestly develop high conviction beliefs, but pure undoubted beliefs are just a figment of human psychology that shouldn’t be taken as seriously as the believer takes them. Humans are not truth finding machines, but they are believing machines.

@Axtremus said in Economy expands 3.8% second quarter, higher than expected: https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/01/economy/adp-private-jobs-report-september US private-sector businesses lost 32,000 jobs in September, according to the report. August’s previously estimated 54,000 payroll gains were downwardly revised to negative 3,000. According to ADP. Biden never had a negative month of private sector non-farm employment. Trump has had two in a row.

Join Kalshi and place your bet, I assume.

No.

What are they thinking? ARE they thinking?

Great, now some idjit’s going to have sex with it and wham, bam, thank you, m’am, it’s COVID II Electric Boogaloo…

Because there’s nothing to read of any substance on any of the pages between the book’s front cover and back cover.

https://fortune.com/2025/09/30/what-happened-soybean-farmers-argentina-china-scott-bessent-phone-texts/ According to a photo of a private text on the phone of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Argentina responded to the treasury secretary’s $20 billion bailout by turning around and removing its export taxes on soybeans and striking a huge new deal with China. That diminished the price of U.S. soybeans and weakened U.S. trade leverage with China, which immediately pulled out of its existing arrangements with soybean farmers in America’s heartland. The photo taken by Angelina Katsanis for the Associated Press last week shows Bessent reading a text that appears to be from Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins. “Finally—just a heads up, I’m getting more intel, but this is highly unfortunate,” the text said. “We bailed out Argentina yesterday and in return, the Argentine’s [sic] are removing their export tariffs on grains, reducing their price, and sold a bunch of soybeans to China, at a time when we would normally be selling to China. Soy prices are dropping further because of it. This gives China more leverage on us.” [image: AP25268801206056-e1759238604667.jpg?w=1440&q=90]

Aikman thinks the over-officiating made the product garbage. Maybe he was upset that it made it impossible for him to be an entertaining color guy. But at least this complaint was interesting. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/troy-aikman-slams-officiating-during-broncos-penalty-flag-filled-rout-bengals

Totally AI.

@Horace said in Woke right vs woke left: "Both sides are equal" is a hobby horse of one of our remaining posters, and has been for many years. LOL (but I guess this shows that I do read teh posts and do not have anyone on "block"!) 555

14m is too long for me but I saw a video clip that showed this mayor chastising a citizen who was complaining about naming a street after a terrorist. I had a similar reaction to Horace, it seemed really bad but I couldn’t tell how much selective editing had happened. It cut between multiple cameras.

Amazing what it can do.
