I took a bit of screw around money and dumped it all into a gold ETF when the tariffs were announced. Has made 20% so far.

In this research, I take a look at the Qilin RaaS in-depth, which has emerged as one of the leading and most innovative ransomware gangs following the takedown of LockBit, the exit scam by ALPHV/BlackCat, and the shutdown of RansomHub.

The current data center “boom” reminds me of the warehouse/distribution center “boom” in 00’s - lots of hype to replace manufacturing jobs lost to PRC but ultimately little impact beyond initial construction beyond paving over more farmland and prairie

More data-center pushback— on Page One in Ohio:

“.. I don't see this as a valid investment .. ," he said. "Frankly, I think there's a growing number of members on my side of the aisle that are like, 'This is ridiculous.'"

I'm gonna go on record and say that the Jester Race through Clayman sequence is one of (if not the best) sequences of album releases in metal, rivaling Ride the Lightning through ...And Justice For All

I'm going to have to start stocking up on whatever will become the Saint Javelin equivalent for Taiwan at this rate, I fear.

Trump trying to shakedown Taiwan to steal their industry…
if Taiwan somehow transfers its industry to the US, he’ll 100% support the One China Policy as a deal for soy bean imports that never happen

Taiwan pressured to move 50% of chip production to US or lose protection

Trump official plots “impossible” deal moving Taiwan’s chip supply chain into US.

There are a lot of election ads on and Democrats still don’t know how to talk to voters. They’re still using big words and rising number graphics and all that 90s shit. You gotta talk to people like they’re fucking cavemen. HIM AN ASSHOLE. IS HORNY FOR CHILDREN. Shit like that

Oh. Oh no. No, no, no. This isn’t grabbing the third rail, it’s sticking your tongue on the third rail while dressed up as Reddy Kilowatt and playing “Thunderstruck” by AC/DC. Do not mess with the commissary.

The core of US culture is "adversarial."

Legal representation? Adversarial.
Health insurance and coverage? Adversarial.
Government representation? Increasingly adversarial.

Prove you need/are entitled to something or FUCK YOU, signed, USofA.
