@jon-nyc said in Buffett retiring: Ok now I’ve seen it all. A fucking crypto boi accusing Buffett of not adding any real value to the real economy. A cryptofuck. https://x.com/cameron/status/1918870264068166008?s=46 What a maroon.

Duck eggs. Yum.

@NobodySock .. I won’t even start, but there’s no amount of cannabis that could kill the pain of envy I have for you now. I’ll have to wait for death and hope for Heaven.

@jon-nyc said in Gen Z? More like Gen Trump.: @Horace said in Gen Z? More like Gen Trump.: The "master of practical wisdom" framing is your own, or, more accurately, the story you tell yourself a direct quote of Horace 1.0. If you say so.

Tugboats are like everything else in life--the wheels go round and round and it chugs down the track.

Wow!! I guess he had nothing to lose. What are they going to do? Put him in prison for life? :eek

Jokes about the priesthood aside, the hardest one to deal with would probably be ongoing child abuse. We have a friend in the UK who's a GP, and she said it's surprising how many people seem to think that a doctor is bound by the same rules as a priest. Needless to say, she reported the bastard immediately.

We’ve become myopically focused on government as the driver of prosperity. I’ve always seen the right’s role as expanding the pie and the left’s role as distributing it. Now both are focused on distributing it - and no one is paying attention to fostering the pipeline of talented citizens to actually do the work. I think it’s a cultural problem as well. We take it for granted that our elite institutions will remain elite.

Invite them both to your house for a beer. And livestream it to TNCR.

Rick Beato is definitely one of the internet's high points.

If you're going to be on national TV why would you place your primary light source under your face like you're doing a dracula impression?

NIL, baby! Can't compete without make-up!

Yeah and “that FuCa” would drown anyone in a spoonful of water if he thought it would gain him more attention. He’s a nickel harlot.

@Mik said in Mayor Pete continuing to lay some groundwork: Coherence Not smelling like Francis boxed wine is kind of a low bar. FIFY

@Copper said in Quietest Black History Month ever?: The public grade school children are learning all about skin color, good and bad. FIFY.

Nobody is supposed to notice how thrilled the Democrats and Trump haters in general were, when they watched the eminently preventable January 6 riots. We're supposed to live in the narrative that it's a solemn and tragic moment in American history, that just happens to look a lot like a rhetorical bonanza for the Democrats.
