They were critical for Obama wearing a tan suit. Biden for checking his watch. Trump could wipe away billions and trillions and he's treated like a sitcom character. "Oh that Donald. What a little scamp. What's he gonna do next? Open a portal to hell? Haha, pass the salt."

In other news: Did anyone else know Fyre Festival II is happening? Well, let me rephrase that. Fyre Festival II might be happening.

The state of the US Presidency is: Option A) Trump is a delusional moron that doesn't understand how tariffs work. Option B) Trump is a delusional moron that is conducting market manipulation. I don't know which I want. Stupid or Evil.

Hmmm... According to DOGE, they have saved $140B (though the real number is likely far less than that). The Pentagon had a budget of $824.3B for 2024 (an increase of $26.8 Billion from 2023) Trump and Hegseth announced a $1 Trillion budget for the Pentagon. DOGE is short $35B to break even.

in case you're wondering, "what's the harm in claiming an extinct species has been brought back from the dead" when it most certainly has not, our interior secretary is already using it to justify taking animals off the endangered species list

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

@atriocreal.bsky.social put it best: If a $100 stock drops 90% and then increases by 90%, you have a $19 stock.

China tweeting a clip of Reagan discussing why Tariffs are bad is, I'll admit, a very funny thing to witness.

Yes it is. //YES IT IS.// He has spent all this time saying he would do this, economists on both side said it was a bad idea, and he moved ahead anyway. You didn't vote for the outcome, but you 100% voted for the actions. I don't buy lotto tickets and say "I didn't pay to lose the super lotto!"

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

"The Flu kills more people, and we don't do this for that." We missed our chance. We now have an opportunity to not add to those numbers, but being inconvenienced is unacceptable. Hank Green called it "Skeptical Hedonism" the other day, and I think that's fairly spot on.

There is a talking point that crashing the market will allow low income earners entry into the stock market. This is kind of like saying Disneyland made their tickets slightly cheaper to make it available for everyone. However, I still have to pay rent and a plane ticket alone isn't in the cards.

I invented a game. It’s called 4 x 3. It’s like connections except that there are three words in each category, there are four categories, and one word is in all four categories. Easy mode is when you know the special word. Hard is when you don’t.

Here is the top comment on this article: “You are advising responsible honest people who have worked hard, saved all their lives… to scale down their retirement dreams because a one person has decided to destroy the US economy. Why not write an article about how to get rid of the real problem?”

I haven't read it yet, but every description of the The Fourth Turning by Strauss & Howe basically describes this. A cycle where the 4th generation after a crisis have no memory of the crisis and begin to act in a way that will lead to a new crisis. The last crisis was approx 4 generations ago.
