@SpartacusNole56 BRB, getting in my Time Machine and going to 2008 for those prices!

Don’t know what child needs to hear this but if you can’t buy a $220k starter home and a $5-7k used car and maintain both that’s your problem not mine. Acquire some skills and a spine instead of crying on social fucking media.

@eclps3aura Brazil has entered the chat. This is Abacaxis!

@jimmyribz2 We need to get those numbers up Jimmy. Let’s go. Keep stacking.

This is a 25 year prison sentence in France

I left for Brazil Sunday morning and had a 16 hour delay and now a diversion to another airport. Looks like I’ll arrive in time for Christmas (Tuesday I hope?). All humor aside, the crew has been exceptional on flight AA929 @AmericanAir

Glad to know where France draws the line.

@AmericanAir Flagship lounge rainbow

@FindlingMary Hope you have a wonderful flight. That rainbow definitely adds a little extra magic to the journey.

@AmericanAir Heading to São Paulo soon

@bethanyjbabcock They have these things called washing machines. As a mom of six kids, I highly recommend them. Light colored car seats are less hot so there is less screaming. Everyone wins!

White interior car seats…. I’m assuming only first time moms are buying them. The esthetic is lovely… very instagram worthy. 10/10 As a mom of soon to be 4 I think I’m allowed to share some unsolicited advice because surely it’s only first time moms buying these. Ladies, Think of that squishy little newborn as a pile of sweet Hershey’s kisses in a hot car. Now picture that car seat in a month. That is all.

@megha_lilly Sylvia Long butterflies are dull looking. They might be scientifically more accurate, but not everything needs to look like a textbook. Claude Monet painted a feeling rather than reality. Eric Carle is embellishing reality. It’s not wrong, just different. Whimsy is ok.

Butterflies are BEAUTIFUL. Don’t let leftist art pollute your taste because you’re afraid to look “unsophisticated”. Sylvia Long >>>> Eric Carle. No they’re not “different styles”. One respects the beauty of nature and one defiles it.

@stopachka The US is not an economic zone. It’s a culturally unique country which should cater to its native born citizens over foreigners who take their jobs.

This hurts the United Sates. We want the best and brightest here. This kind of policy incentives the most exceptional people to choose an alternative country.

@varunsrin Ok. There are over a billion Indians. Should we just let everyone in without some kind of quota system? Just ok, 1.4 billion Indians come over to the US which has a population of 350 million?

@Patrickwebb Why is a NIH monkey flying commercial?

BREAKING: An Ebola-infected monkey recently bit an NIH lab researcher at Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Montana and then was allowed on a plane without being quarantined, according to HHS Secretary Kennedy, per Laura Loomer.

@Alonso_GD You’re born in the US, go to high school, college, graduate with honors. You can’t get an interview anywhere because the hiring managers are all Indian and he only hire Indians. Ridiculous policy. Unfortunately awful situation for all parties, but this is what we have now.

You study in the US, get an OPT, fall in love and get married, find a job, maybe even have a kid And then to be a permanent resident you need to quit your job, move away from your family and somehow survive 6 months in a country you left 4 years ago Ridiculous policy

@ShadowyZephyr This is completely untrue. I have lived in different countries, far less developed than the US and dining out is common and done daily. It’s a lot cheaper these places but still it’s done every day.

Many Gen Z Americans think they should get to go for lunch and dinner at a restaurant *every day*, something no generation in any country has ever done, and if they can't afford it it's politicians' fault for crashing the economy somehow. Social media standards cooked us.

@CongressmanRaja My country is not an economic zone. It’s not everyone’s right to come here for a better life, especially when that seems to mean hiring only people from your home country.

My parents brought me to this country as an infant in search of a better life. That’s what America is all about. Rep. Nancy Mace’s proposed constitutional amendment to bar naturalized citizens from serving in Congress, on the federal bench, and in Senate-confirmed positions is morally wrong. We must stand shoulder-to-shoulder against the bigotry and hate behind it.

@the_satellite23 Too much carbs in that. Almost no protein.

Loaf of bread = $5 Peanut butter = $4 Jelly = $4 18 pack of chips = $12 Bag of apples = $5 Total = $30 And you'll have lunch for an entire week or two. $2-4 average per day. Inflation isn't the problem. Your spending habits are.

@Painefulfacts @Bobbythirdway 17K went a lot further. Inflation has eroded today’s purchasing power significantly.

@Bobbythirdway Are you willing to make 17000 a year like them?

My grandpa bought a used Chevy Nova for my dad in high school for $1500 in 1978. I am willing to live like boomers in their 20s — I am willing to have affordable muscle cars and pay $300 for university tuition.

Out of touch boomer who hasn’t raised wages in over a decade doesn’t want young people to enjoy an occasional lunch out of their cubicle.

@DagnyTaggartUSA You bought 5 bottles of Gerolsteiner? And everything is organic? 🙄

One week of groceries for a family. Nothing extravagant. Just the bare bones in a blue state. I stay home. My husband only leaves the house to work. We have cancelled vacations. Taken our children out of extracurricular activities. Cancelled our gym membership’s. We do not go out to restaurants frequently. I’m wearing the same old clothes that I have for years and I need socks and underwear, but that will have to, I guess, never happen. @RFKJr_Official @POTUS @JDVance HELP!

@abacalo @brivael Thomas Sowell absolutely needs to be on this list. In Vision of the Anointed, he showcases the mindset of the political class and their sense of moral superiority in solving the problems of the people they claim to represent. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

@brivael Don’t forget Sowell

Voilà ce que je te conseille, dans l'ordre. Philosophie / Sociologie : – Naval Ravikant pour la clarté mentale et le rapport au travail/leverage. Si tu ne dois regarder qu'un podcast, c'est le sien chez Joe Rogan. – René Girard (Le bouc émissaire, La violence et le sacré) pour comprendre le désir mimétique — une fois que tu l'as lu, tu vois la société différemment. – Nassim Taleb (Antifragile, Skin in the Game) pour penser le risque, l'incertitude et l'asymétrie. – Daniel Kahneman (Système 1 / Système 2) pour comprendre comment ton cerveau fonctionne vraiment : l'intuition rapide vs le raisonnement lent, et tous les biais qui en découlent. Indispensable. C'est ton socle : individu, désir, risque, cognition. Économie : 1. Commence soft avec le @lexfridman x @JMilei — c'est la porte d'entrée la plus accessible aux idées libérales contemporaines. 2. Puis le livre indispensable : La Route de la servitude (Hayek). Si tu ne dois en lire qu'un seul pour comprendre pourquoi le socialisme ne marche pas et pourquoi il faut se méfier de quiconque veut « contrôler le marché », c'est celui-là. 3. Ensuite, fais toute la track de Marx aux Autrichiens : Marx (Le Capital, au moins les extraits clés) → Keynes pour le compromis d'après-guerre → puis Mises (L'Action humaine), Hayek, Rothbard. Tu comprendras la généalogie complète et pourquoi, malgré l'histoire, il reste encore des gens qui pensent sérieusement que le communisme peut marcher. Classique ET contemporain, bon ET mauvais — c'est en lisant les deux côtés que tu te forges un vrai jugement.
