Pending final market close, the year-over-year returns are still 8% or more for the major market indices. Bitcoin is still up over 14%. Can the market sustain itself, or will the true cost of Trump’s tariffs, layoffs, and spending cuts drive further decline once they are reported?

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Happy 2025 = 45², the first “square” year since 1936, the next being 2116. Its digit sum is also a square: 2+0+2+5 = 9 = 3². This last happened in 1681 and next occurs in 2304. And not since 900 has the year divided by the digit sum been a square too: 900/9=100 = 10² & 2025/9=225 = 15² QED. 👀🎉😁
