Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)
I keep thinking of the French Revolution, and how surprised King Louis XVI must have been to realize that he was quite touchable, after all.
What if US gave Iran’s frozen assets back, and guaranteed not to blow their country back to the stone ages?In return, 🇮🇷 can reopen the Straight without tolls and continue to build nuclear power reactors, like everyone else is doing, agreeing to limit uranium enrichment to 3.5%, with inspections. 🫰
Oil is on its way up. Way up. Hope you bought the dip and shook out your shorts like our mystery whale did. It was a feeding frenzy today. 🦈
According to Hobbes, civilization is a contract. It is a compact of shared truths founded on agreement. We leveraged our cooperation into a collective safety from the robbers and rapists. When the shared truth compact breaks, the contract breaks, and the American Empire returns to a state of war.
Market movers are supply and demand. Will the loss of 20% of global oil cause a huge spike in US gas prices in a month? Only if demand on domestic oil is high, and supply is insufficient to meet the demand. Tankers from Hormuz are in the Gulf of Mexico draining domestic supply as I type this.
A reasonable person might assume the first missile that hit Shajareh Tayyebeh school, killing over 100 children, may have been a miscalculation, but that subsequent strikes were deliberate. Serious violations of the laws of war carried out by individuals deliberately, or recklessly, are war crimes.
Consumer confusion looks like this graph.The goalposts keep moving so that now if bombs aren’t dropping everything is mostly normal. Quietly they are moving their investments into what appears to be safer havens, which mostly looks like Bitcoin today.
It is remarkable how thoroughly Donald and his minions have corrupted the Administration.
Erdoğan has intensified his attack on Israel after atrocities in 🇱🇧 and 🇵🇸, warning that Ankara could take military action if necessary. That could look like GAZAP, a 2000lb thermobaric bunker buster bomb that can generate temps of 3000°C at the point of impact. “Wrath” will detonate the air itself.
A great revolution is never the fault of the people, but of the government. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
NFLD has its own…ways. I thought about calling in an anonymous tip lol One of the owners had a couple of coins from the “site” that looked really old and worn thin. Reminded me of these:
Vo is the word the Text Command Replace thought I was reaching for, and it’s not even an English word. I cannot remember another time where I used Replace before. It was not entirely an unhelpful experience. Vo.
Strange how only pics 🤖 can’t scrub or pass the keyword scrub are allowed through
