Wage suppression occurred when the US adopted supply side economics and quarterly results focus. Hmmm…

Reciprocal, mindless tariffs are about punishing people that run and work in businesses which provide valuable goods that people overseas want to buy. It’s profoundly anti business.

Somehow, the US has enough citizens that think everything they hear on the news is real. They feel this is a heroic struggle against chaos. They haven’t stopped to think how easy it is to think this and how much time and resources they have available to fight ghosts.

Blue Devils have the Deacon Blues. #NCAATournament

Trump’s new tariff math looks a lot like an AI chatbot recommendation. So we decided to ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok and Claude. Read more here: bit.ly/4ldxJ77

The US enters the Fool’s Golden Age.

It’s well past time for Congress to yank back the power to impose tariffs from the Executive back to where it belongs.

If people are wondering why I’m aiming tariff discussions towards small town America, it’s because that’s where elections have been won and lost over the last couple of decades. They are the ones that have the power to change their choices.

Suddenly, everything in Walmart will be more expensive. Everything will become too expensive. The small towns in rural America have no leverage around this. They gave up their downtowns for cheap imports. These impacts are the direct result of their political and economic choices.

When you hire a clown, expect a circus. When you hire the biggest clown, expect a catastrophe.

Today’s discourse on any social media.

Capturing and controlling the will of the people is the long way of saying targeted advertising.

Fascinating video from Patrick Boyle about the current baby bust around the world. There is a massive drop in birth rates and coupling around the world. It’s not just the wealthy and overworked countries. youtu.be/ispyUPqqL1c?...

Hamilton is back! Tempo di martello! #F1

I stand 100% with Jack Schlossberg and his Grandfather.

Imagine calling yourself the master race and have to resort to erasing the achievements of minorities to make yourself feel better.

Championship week is showing there is no clear favorite for the NCAA Tournament. #NCAA

Tesla will become an interesting Harvard Business Review case study of how long a company can survive when its brand is hated by the vast majority of the market. It will also be interesting to see what happens to the company after the collapse.

Seeing Yuki destroy Red Bull this year will be delightful. #F1

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

The stock market is acting like a Bear Market. As it’s searching for a new stable bottom, there will be burst of buying. The sawtooth pattern will continue on a downward slope until the market determines what the economic conditions are.

I wonder if Williams is the Aston Martin of this season? They might pick off a lot of top 10 finishes. So far, Williams and RB appear to be the best of the rest. #F1

The Warriors started the season 12-3. They lost their inside, in the paint player, and fell below .500. They got a superstar inside player in a February trade and have gone 14-2. Obviously, that was the missing piece.

I just saw a Cybertruck with a "Baby on Board" sticker and thought that was very self-aware of the owner.

Those who are cutting organizations & people that heal and help you while growing those that hurt you aren’t focused on government efficiency. They’re focused on control by force and intimidation.

I find it ironic for someone that works in gaming to see a player that hires better players to play for him and then pretend he’s the best player. Then to see the player’s performance and ego become exposed as he is flailing and failing in the game.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Hopefully, useful science like this can continue in the US. Cutting off federal research funding imperils the ability to find cures for diseases.
