This kinda thing used to be big news when I was younger: Not very sure it matters now, because Bitcoin: https://www.barrons.com/advisor/articles/weeks-best-fidelity-sweep-account-options-8ce52818?siteid=yhoof2

“Shipping group A.P. Moller-Maersk (MAERSKb.CO), reported a steep drop in third-quarter profit and revenue on Friday and said it would cut at least 10,000 jobs in the face of overcapacity, rising costs and weaker prices, sending its shares tumbling. Maersk, which controls about one-sixth of global container trade, transporting goods for a host of major retailers and consumer goods companies such as Walmart and Nike, flagged a steeper downturn in demand than analysts and investors had expected.” https://www.reuters.com/business/shipping-giant-maersk-q3-above-expectation-sees-fy-lower-end-range-2023-11-03/

This took me a few minutes, ngl. And then I remembered - fuckin’ Ordinals…

I don’t do Technical Analysis, but I used to. Probably the only thing I’ll offer in this regard is that THIS is a sucker’s bet on the bearish side.

Feeling vulnerable posting this, but I’m going to take the risk: What’s a respectable dating site for people who don’t live in a major city-center in the US? Like useful for people who need to search a 40 or 60 mile radius to find someone who draws them into their planet? I mean, I’m normal, successful, well-liked and regarded, in good shape, and don’t identify as anything in particular. I like women who are authentic in who they are. Yet that said, I’m very discerning, hence this request. But the thing is, I live in an amazingly wonderful small town in Wisconsin that I love, yet for years now I haven’t found any women available I’m interested in. I’m very much independent, not an addict, enjoy people just being themselves. But in the place I love to live in, I can’t find a woman I’m drawn to be with, so looking to branch out. But that’s really impossible to do without a dating site. And I don’t want to fuck around and find out which is best. So hoping someone has some user-experience insight to offer. Thx in advance!

Let’s be clear, you cannot - CANNOT - defend the state of Israel without invoking ‘anti-Semitism’ or leaning into the bs argument that “they’re the whitest country in the middle-east”. And also yes, I have vast, vast criticisms of middle-east governments and Islamic popular religious interpretation.

“Blank Space” is a perfect pop song, and frankly doesn’t get any better when Johnny Cash covers it. But maybe you differ to agree:

Bitcoin is the future of performance art. Because in the Fiat world performance art is dead. Inarguably dead. Artists are the lowest feeders on the Fiat chain. Always were, always are. (asterisk the handful of graphic artists intimately involved in money laundering and child trafficking, but that’s another…) In the coming transformation to the Bitcoin standard, real Artists can position themselves as front-runners. So its Simple. Start with your Art. Ask to integrate Lightning/Bitcoin payments into your art. You get this right? Just ask for Bitcoin. The asking itself is what matters. Forget Fiat begging, make your begging for QR code Bitcoin as part of the performance.

It’s fascinating. I didn’t care about Twitter, until Bitcoin. Then didn’t care about Twitter because of Bitcoin. Then didn’t care about Twitter because of Bitcoin. I didn’t care about Twitter, after Bitcoin. It’s fascinating.

This is impossible to argue, unless the argument is “No, we fucking OWN you”” which seems to be their argument right now, actually. #MoneyIsHope View quoted note →

If you still love independent, garage band rock, check out @chowcollection who offers a continual stream of Amazing suggestions for Japanese artists who have taken the mantle of accomplished musicianship and are pushing it forward. chowcollection has single handedly helped me realize that the future of Independent music has long fled the UK and America, where it was bred when I was born.
