@ELMAGAIN Not this again. Use a map. The lithium deposits are down the hill in the piedmont just outside the majorly affected areas of Helene. Look up kings mountain NC.

That explains hurricane Helene

There’s also an exit tax so good luck with that. If you are smart and wealthy enough to afford the chance to leave you should be smart enough to figure out how to use the tax loopholes to mitigate your tax liabilities. Expatriating is not the best tax strategy. America still has some of the best tax laws for small businesses and obv there are plenty of ways to offset most of your taxes when you are wealthy enough to have to worry about it.

The US is the only country in the world that taxes its citizens no matter where they live. Read that again. You can move to Portugal. Learn the language. Pay rent there. Build a business there. Never step foot in America again. And the IRS will still send you a bill. Every. Single. Year. Americans don't have a tax residency. They have a tax prison. There's a reason 6,000+ people renounce US citizenship every year. And that number is about to explode.

@Rawmilkchad Everyone must go and experience it for themselves. I’ve been 15x and it only gets worse every time

I went to Africa on a "mission trip" in my teenage years and it was the most blackpilling thing imaginable. The IQ chart floating around showing that the average African IQ is "mentally retarded" is completely true. It's not a problem of education, it's a problem of capability. Most of these people can't think 15 seconds beyond the present. They struggle to understand basic concepts, even those involving safety and self-preservation. They often can't understand simple mathematical or scientific concepts. Modern science may as well be witchcraft to them. They constantly misallocate resources -- after being gifted something like a tractor, and taught for months on how it works, they will simply strip it for parts the minute you leave and starve at harvest season. They have fantastical ideas about the power of witchcraft and some enduring folk superstition, believing things like bald men have gold in their heads. They think putting a condom on a stick in their house will magically protect them from getting AIDS, and they think having sex with a child will cure them. They constantly steal from each other, even those closest to them. I think it would be cheaper to send all libtards to some impoverished part of Africa and have them learn this the hard way than it would be to continue sending African countries aid. It's untenable. We have thrown money at them and babysat them for a century and they are no better off than a hundred years ago. It would be best to simply pack up and leave them to their own devices.

I live here and am in the mineral industry and this is still so wrong just like it was when the storm happened. The lithium deposit is in kings mountain NC and it was just outside the devastating storm area. Yes it was affected but NOT like everywhere just west and north of the storm. The storm did not cross any lithium deposits.

scientists just found 2.3 million metric tons of lithium in Appalachia.. enough to replace 328 years of US imports funny how Hurricane Helene devastated the exact same region in 2024.. displacing thousands of families.. destroying homes that were never rebuilt.. while FEMA offered $750 checks and told people to apply online with no power or internet in 1830 Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act and marched 60,000 Native Americans off their land because they were sitting on gold in Georgia.. called it "relocation".. history books call it the Trail of Tears in the 1960s the government flooded entire towns across Appalachia to build dams.. families who'd been there for generations got letters telling them their land was now a reservoir every time America finds something valuable under poor people's homes.. the homes disappear first and the discovery gets announced second 328 years of lithium supply sitting under the poorest communities in America.. and you think the timing of this announcement is a coincidence

@Bird_XRPL That NO amount of money will change the fact that spiritual evolution starts w being in service to others.

What’s the one thing new XRP holders need to understand first?

@HansAmato Vital farms eggs are like drinking soy oil. Worst eggs on the market. Research it and choose better.

The most fucked up thing about American food is that you have to be a paranoid lunatic just to feed yourself something that won't kill you in 30 years. You're paying $400 a month at Whole Foods to avoid $200,000 in medical bills the food industry will hand you at 60. The default snack is a chemical no European country lets in. The default cooking oil was invented in 1911 in a soap factory by Procter and Gamble. The default protein bar is sugar wrapped in marketing. The default "healthy" yogurt has more sugar than ice cream. The default breakfast cereal was invented by a guy who wanted to make people less horny. That's not a joke btw. John Harvey Kellogg literally believed corn flakes would reduce masturbation. The cereal aisle is downstream of his crusade. You have to FIGHT to find real bread. FIGHT to find a chicken that wasn't raised in a steroid bath. FIGHT to find olive oil that hasn't been cut with canola in a warehouse in Spain. FIGHT to find a restaurant that doesn't cook everything in soybean oil. FIGHT to read every label like it's evidence at a murder trial. Your great-grandfather ate what was on his farm and he lived to 89. You eat 87 ingredients you can't pronounce per meal and you'll be on a statin at 52. Somehow this is "progress." The American food industry is a $1.5 trillion machine and the medical industry is a $4.5 trillion machine. Different shareholders, same business model: make you sick, then sell you the management. Doritos in your kid's lunchbox. Lipitor in his lunchbox 30 years later. Same parent companies sometimes. PepsiCo owns Quaker. Quaker pushed oatmeal as "heart healthy" while loading it with sugar. Mondelez owns Cadbury, Oreo, Ritz, Triscuit, Wheat Thins. Kraft Heinz owns Kraft Mac and Cheese, Velveeta, Capri Sun, Lunchables. The 7 companies that make 87% of what's on a typical American grocery shelf all have pharma stock holdings 2 to 3 layers deep. The grocery walkthrough that actually keeps you alive: > Outer aisles only. Produce, meat, dairy, eggs. Inner aisles are 90% chemistry experiments. > Meat: pasture-raised, grass-fed, no antibiotics. Costco has decent options. Local farmers are better. Skip "natural" labels (means nothing). > Eggs: pasture-raised, NOT cage-free (means nothing), NOT free-range (means almost nothing). Vital Farms is the easiest find. > Butter: Kerrygold or any grass-fed brand. The yellow color is beta-carotene from grass. Pale butter = grain fed. > Olive oil: California Olive Ranch, Kirkland's California, or single-estate Italian. Most "Italian" olive oil at Costco is Spanish-Tunisian blends cut with sunflower oil. Litigation pending. > Bread: sourdough from a local bakery or Ezekiel-style sprouted. Avoid anything with "vegetable oil" or "soybean oil" in the ingredients. What to delete from the cart entirely: > Anything in a bag that didn't exist in 1950 (chips, crackers, cereal in a box, pre-mixed dressings) > Vegetable oil, canola, soybean, corn, sunflower, safflower > Anything with HFCS, "natural flavors," carrageenan, soy lecithin, BHT, BHA > Sweetened yogurt (buy plain, sweeten with honey or fruit) > Pre-packaged "healthy" snacks (granola bars, RX bars, protein cookies) The 4-step kitchen audit that actually works: > Cook 6 nights a week. No restaurants on weeknights. The exposure compounds when families eat out 4 times a week. > Buy meat from one farmer for the year. Costs the same per pound, eat better cuts. > Eggs and rice are superfoods. Stop chasing trendy ones. The basics still print. > Skip protein bars. A boiled egg + an apple beats every $4 bar on the shelf and costs $0.80. The system is engineered to keep you a customer. Opt out. DM me "REPORT" for the custom health report here's what you get: - full symptom and history mapping specific to you - the most likely biological root causes behind what you're feeling - exact labs to order and how to read the results yourself - a prioritized protocol: what to fix, in what order, built around your body not a generic PDF. not a supplement list. a personalized breakdown of what's actually wrong and how to fix it the report your doctor would give you if he had 4 hours instead of 13 minutes

@GoodLionTV Sooo. …..It was your mom ?

Who wired money to Jeffrey Epstein 4,700 times? You guessed it…

@yoyonofukuoka We live in many parallel timelines and death seems to be us bouncing between them. Until we figure out how to go home. Perhaps the timeline your dad went to was also cluttered like he likes it. And you saw him there in your dream.

また去年死んだ父親が夢に現れた。 夢の中の父は、自分の死後に復活する形で現れた。 父の死後、僕達兄弟は父が住んでいた家を整理して、空っぽの状態にしたのだが、何故か夢の中の父の家は、父が生きてる時のままの雑然とした状態に戻っていた。 夢の中の僕はその変化をとても奇妙に感じており、ある日突然家の中の物が全て消えてしまうかもしれない、と不安に思った。

@CleansedTweets I’ve been to China almost 30x and i concur that they can be quite hospitable.

Back in Guangzhou, China 🇨🇳 after 8 days away & it's such a lovely home, albeit temporary. Just walking to breakfast this morning, random strangers were smiling, saying hello, & treating me with such warmth. After all these years & even speaking Mandarin, I know I’ll never be seen as “one of them” & that’s okay. It's as it should be. What blows me away is how genuinely kind & welcoming people are here anyway. China really is special. Who else has experienced this incredible hospitality? [Photo from 2020 - they just wanted a photo - which is very common here]

@NFAdotcrypto @KuwlShow The riddles just magnify the conviction

We don’t hold XRP because of riddles. We hold for a million reasons based on research we never stopped doing for years while the SEC and MSM relentlessly lied to us about it. While everyone told us we were fools for believing in XRP, we built a bulletproof thesis on facts and experience (that had nothing to do with riddles) and it only got stronger as the future continued playing out in XRP’s favor. HOWEVER, in addition to our fact-based research, riddles began providing another angle of speculation, mystery and fun… An escape from the noise and monotony of crypto news cycles and a way to keep learning. And for that—I continue to be thankful. 🙏

@goneers Dun muted yins Fer that crime ya dun spoke thar!

At the risk of losing my credibility as a Southerner, I must make a confession- I think boiled peanuts are gross. Don’t judge me.

@TonyVaI76476318 @StephanieStarrC Just waiting for one of them to post about a beer tonight

GET. READY.

@thealepalombo I love your content. Thank you.

Most Japan relocation advice still points to the same four cities: Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and maybe Sapporo. But that's not where the Japanese are going at least. Japanese professionals are relocating 70 Shinkansen minutes outside Tokyo. A Kyushu prefecture most people outside Japan can't place on a map has the fastest foreign resident growth in the region, and Kyushu itself is the fastest-growing region in Japan. For each one: who's moving there right now, property dynamics, connectivity to a major hub, cost of living, and the honest trade-offs. 7 cities. Data on every single one:

My post on Japan's 9 million abandoned houses blew up last week. Right after, my Japanese friend called me. "Now write about hidden locations where people are moving in Japan, like you did for Italy and France." He pulled in his family and contacts across Kyushu, Kanto, and Okinawa. I ran the data: foreign resident growth, rental yields, Shinkansen times, the honest downsides. 27 cities made the initial research list. 7 made the cut. Not Tokyo or Kyoto. These are 7 Japanese cities where people are moving to but few talk about them outside Japan. 🧵

@martingeddes So you wanna leave the front lines for a desk job

I am seriously considering ending my participation in this platform and moving my energies to Truth Social or Gab where the algorithm hasn’t displaced the core social media dynamic of following. If that choice of free association isn’t respected at all, it is just neo propaganda.

@0xleegenz Not sure what you taking about. I paid 1 extra per year and cut 11 years

Realizing a 30 year mortgage doesn’t actually mean 30 years: - 1 extra monthly payment per year can cut 5 years off - 2 extra payments per year can cut about 8 years off - 3 extra payments per year can cut about 11 years off Bank won't tell you this

@SMQKEDQG @DCENTWALLETS Have you done any research on $CC you can share ?

Great sale on the cold wallet that I personally trust.🤝💰 Biometric protection for your crypto assets. 🫆 Less than $100 for one more week.⏰ @DCENTWALLETS 🤝💨

@vandell33 How you feel about $CC ?

The $3 trillion private credit market has heavy exposure to AI software and growing bets on data centers. A meaningful portion of that exposure sits in areas being disrupted by AI, while defaults are already rising. At its core, private credit is effectively funding the AI buildout while holding the loans most vulnerable to it. Any slowdown in real returns will trigger tighter lending and force the AI hype to unwind. I'd take undervalued digital assets over this AI leverage setup any day.

HK is great except the disparity between what a house will cost you in HK vs 20 mins across the border is like 10x and absolutely crazy ! My friend bought a house $1m, had to renovate it to add enough space for family of 3 to live. It’s in an industrial area and maybe a total of 120sqm. Biggest ripoff for property in the history of the world.

What does Hong Kong mean to you? To me it’s one of Britain’s greatest triumphs. East and West at its finest.
