It’s funny and kind of incongruous hearing Michael Malice read an ad for refinancing your home to pay off credit card debt

Yo @Mullvad VPN ! I was peeing on a bush overlooking the highway in my town and saw a bus go by with a “Stop Mass Surveillance and Control of the Internet” ad on the side. Very cool to see in the wild

If nothing else, these thoughts will remain

Fractals are cool, man

Man, Sinners was so bad. People are really hot to trot about this movie?

It’s funny to check the 10-year yield multiple times per morning while working a job that’s not pertinent to finance at all

Joe Biden’s life arc is both sad and dangerous

I think it’s rare statistically speaking, but if an addict quits their habit and replaces it with exercise they become an absolute psychopath in the gym. I’ve met three, all of them dudes from 40-60 years old. Maniacs about cardio and strength both

I’m a all set cobra jet a creepin thru the nighttime

On one end of the spectrum there’s MSTR True North and at the other there’s Nostr. I haven’t seen a lot of overlap
