Ate dinner in an inadequately cooled restaurant.
Mistake.

From a buddy:
SSPX: how come you never excommunicate heretics?
Rome: *excommunicates heretics*
SSPX: not like that!

But that’s essentially it. No milquetoast tendencies in the modern Church justify the open rebellion of SSPX.
I really do think paid relays are the way to go around here. Nobody's getting rich off of this whole Nostr thing, but we need it.

I do have to hand it to the SSPX bozo show, though: all they’ve done since 1988 is managed to get even more people excommunicated.
There is no true path to improvement in the Church involving a path outside of the Church. These poor souls have the script flipped, and will not be a part of the solution.
FAFO. They get what they deserve.
That's because my family's native country, good sir, is a [crappier] version of Germany and France.

The heat index is 108. I am staying out of peoples' way today.
Speaking of baseball: Happy Bobby Bonilla Day to those who celebrate.
I'll never forget stepping in to a scorching hot Target after an Anaheim Angels game and seeing people standing in freezers. I couldn't stop laughing. This is the US, and supposedly one of our prime states, not the developing world. It was surreal.
Good work, everyone.

The heat deaths in Europe -- the majority of them -- are morally reprehensible, The money is there to generate the energy to cool dwellings en masse, even if those funds are now being wasted on low-yield renewables.
Do it, hippies.
Build the nukes. Admit defeat, and...
My father must be so proud: 10 years of higher education, and I mostly just use it to hustle bar trivia with my team.
But we did it in the heat, friends. So at least there's that.

No one should ever make a dumb "dry heat" joke. Yes, truly, at least it's a dry heat. 110 in Death Valley is much easier than 90 with a dew point of 78. Cherish your humidity-free region if you live in one.

Illinois humidity is its own kind of misery.
Somehow, the world survived OpenAI's 2019 release.
Somehow.
Poor Charlie.
If you sincerely believe that one man tanked your portfolio, he may or may not be a bad man, but you are most certainly a terrible investor.
Folks talk about the AI bubble, and it exists. But it won't burst until after the IPOs, even as we see anecdotal things like this.
Pump and dumps take many forms, and we're seeing a wild one unfold before us.

Good afternoon.
Tomorrow is, after all, a new day. GN.
I love this guy, and he's a good reminder of why it's never a bright idea to piss off a country boy.
