DJT and EM, blink twice if you need Hormone Replacement Therapy. It's the 21st century and you don't have to do menopause med free.

DJT, your travel ban is weak. Why don't you just ban all foreigners? We could use the travel advisory. Are people from the named countries even traveling to the US? Is this a stunt to get Americans to learn geography? Where is Burundi and will I have to ride a tuktuk from Tanzania to get there?

Oligarchs in brawls. We’re all going to die—but first, this dumb reality show. [With discredit to Joni Ernst]

Going after international students at Harvard is so dumb. He who declares war on the future leaders of the world must not plan on sticking around for long.

Am I the last human to play a perfect game against Google's AI?

One of my oldest memories as a child in Hanoi, was this one time a beggar asked us for food and cursed us when he saw what we were eating. Took 20 years for it to dawn on me that we were surviving on government rations. It's so weird that the US is now transitioning to a centrally planned economy.

It's a sobering thought that every time it looked like women could break through the glass ceiling, it set off enough fear to launch the human race into another dark age. Last time, a Christian mob murdered Hypatia of Alexandria. Just what about us having equal rights / accomplishments is so scary?

The best way to describe this stock market is that it's boosted by cycles of fake news, straight out of the WH. E.g. Good luck getting China to agree to 80% tariff. And what does having a "deal" even mean if tariffs are still so high? Yesterday's trade deal with the UK was completely nonsensical.

Keir Starmer is so going to get burned for this trade "deal," going first and capitulating to the 10% tariff even though his country runs a trade surplus with the US. Kinda weird that financial markets crashed on "Liberation Day" and rallied today even though the details under the hood are the same.

Jay Powell is my Ken doll. He did say his job was beach.

But I NEED 133 dolls to enact a Papal conclave. 12 for a jury. 7 for a surgery. 2-3 dolls is like A Streetcar Named Desire. Nothing good happens in a scene with 2-3 dolls.

100 days into the regime and even my breakfast looks 😱.

The Secretary of Defense wearing face paint may be about the only thing he's doing right. Going back to our roots, yay? www.nga.gov/collection/a...

My thoughts on Tesla: Going into the earning call, we knew company performance was going to be awful so there were shorts and puts on the company. As EM announced that he was going to spend more time at Tesla, share price shot up and traders had to cover their positions, which fed on itself. 1/

DJT live just now: "The cost of eggs has gone down 94% since we took office." So let's say eggs were $9 a dozen in CA in Jan. Are they $0.50 now?

Easter is a holiday in commemoration a feat, of that one time some guy pulled off the excuse that he was dead for three days.

Ah, how I miss normal life this time last year.

I'm in London, making Easter lunch for 12 people for under $100. This country is a giant farm. Sheep and veg grow themselves. This chlorinated chicken trade deal isn't going to go well.

Financial markets were antigravitational last week in the face of the biggest trade war in human history. And up again today as DJT threatens to fire Powell, because "he won't do it" or "Fed will still be independent under another chairman." This market is not digesting information. I'm scared.

It's so weird to hear concentration camps framed in the context of American citizenship. Liberty and due process are not unique American rights. They are rights enjoyed by people across the world. Liberté, egalité, fraternité ou la mort. As the French speaking world have been saying since 1793.

I find solace in the fact that gender and racial equity is so scary that some people will set themselves on fire to escape it.

LOL, the US is using trade negotiations to push its fascist agenda to the rest of the world. It's asking the UK to allow hate speech for a deal. The US ran a trade surplus with the UK before this. Still hit the UK with 10% tariffs. What's British for fuck off? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
