@Fox3forDale Mostly stocks sir. They move way more than crypto. Many move like 21 shitcoins. Until that stops I prob won’t be trading crypto much.

Creatine sales are down 97% globally as people have replaced it with peptides. Am I biased as one of the largest creatine dealers in the world. Yes. Not a huge fan. But idk Bros. In your 20’s you can get in peak. Elite shape and maintain low body fat without any of that stuff with some hard work, discipline and a great diet. A lot of these peptides have no quality control and many have a total lack of research. Buying from some factory in Bangladesh is probably not the best idea. But if you’re going to do it. At least find the best proven quality stuff you can. Don’t be cheap when it comes to your long term health. Not in all, but I think eventually in many cases the potential side effects are going to be pretty regrettable. I guess time will tell.

"Not too long ago, two friends of mine were talking to a Cuban refugee, a businessman who had escaped from Castro, and in the midst of his story one of my friends turned to the other and said, "We don't know how lucky we are." And the Cuban stopped and said, "How lucky you are? I had someplace to escape to." And in that sentence he told us the entire story. If we lose freedom here, there's no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth." - Ronald Reagan, A Time for Choosing youtube.com/watch?v=_VBtCM…

@BitPaine He clearly explains it: “We need 2.05% ARR to fund the dividend” ($54.5B x 2.05% = $1.1B) Literal troglodytes: “WhErE dOes ThE MonEy CoMe FroM?”

Bit Paine ⚡️@BitPaine·
Do people really have this much trouble understanding basic arbitrage math? $MSTR equity holders capture $BTC price appreciation plus new $BTC acquired. The premium to NAV is justified because $MSTR is acquiring new $BTC and $BTC per share is increasing. This ensures that new equity can be sold at a premium to pay dividends to pref holders. The prefs fund new $BTC acquisition without diluting common equity holders. In exchange, common equity holders fund the dividend through share dilution. The equity structure strips the volatility from the underlying and accrues it all to the common equity holders. As long as $BTC appreciates faster than the APY of the dividends over the long term, this is accretive and profitable to common equity, with massive, intermittent volatility. Like - which part of this is hard? Are these people just low IQ and bad at math? Like I get that this is an unconventional use of these equities, but it’s not conceptually that hard to understand unless you are really, really low IQ.

Saylor has lost it with this logic. He has now issued $10b+ of preferred stock at 10-11.5% and has capacity to issue $25b more. That means a dividend bill of $1-4b EVERY YEAR on a software business that makes no cash. He has pre-funded some of this bill for the next year by issuing common stock - but with the amount of preferred shares printed each week this is going to run out. The only option for this capital structure long term is either issuing $1-4b of common stock every year, turning off the dividend or selling BTC. This is now a timebomb.

@rektmando @AdamBLiv The dividend comes from the ATM. Do you know what 2.05% of $54.5B is? This isn’t that hard.

@AdamBLiv Where does the dividend come from? The ONLY cashflow of this business is selling more stock And he is a about to put the yearly cash need at $4b

Our BTC Breakeven ARR is ~2.05%. If Bitcoin grows faster than that over time, we can cover our dividends indefinitely without issuing new $MSTR shares. Track it in real time on our site. $STRC

Iran has mostly blocked the Strait of Hormuz, preventing ships from entering or leaving without their approval. So Trump threatens a naval blockade if Iran doesn't agree to stop blocking Hormuz during the current negotiations. Ummmm..... What exactly will *2* blockades solve??

@maria_drutska Iran has a huge coastline. A blockage means nothing without shops near the coast. This far the US navy has say 1,000 km off the coast to avoid attack.

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers." - Socrates, ~450 BC

Did you know that prior to World War II the “Greatest Generation” were viewed as lazy, and entitled, and that they spent too much time at music clubs? Every time someone makes comments about the next generation in the military, I think about that. I mean, we have Cadets saving lives before they’ve even commissioned. I’ve seen the new generation step up time and time again.

@mat97siv @Lmachain1 @KasperStats True, but if someone doesn’t understand how it works that helps them visualize. And baseline distance helps with accuracy.

I think you’re underestimating how triangulation works. Week 1: Get distance, draw arc on map. Week 2: Fly across the country and repeat. The arcs intersect at 2 points. Week 3: Don’t be the same distance from each of those two points and your new arc will intersect just one of them. That’s your location. Go there and spend the next few weeks repeating this process locally if you have to but it’s not going to be hard to pinpoint.

@KasperStats I think you’re underestimating how difficult this would be. The fact that you are only told once a week how far you are means you only really got 52 tries and a lot of dead time where you can’t really do much.

TFW the Pope has apparently read neither Augustine nor the Bible. To wit: “When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you—then when the Lord your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy.” - Deuteronomy 7:1-2 "But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer." - Romans 13:4 "Peace is not sought in order to the kindling of war, but war is waged in order that peace may be obtained.” - St. Augustine

God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.

Of course he’s a fucking ADA officer…… this is the kind of crybaby baby back bullshit I dealt with for years. Originally shared by @usawtfm . Hey @SecWar you want to improve morale? Remove senior leaders in units (especially those whose job is to shoot down planes and missiles) who think that this political correctness makes us a better fighting force. This dude gotta go.

You believe that post is trying to invoke article V? Seriously? I am at a loss for what you people aren't understanding here. Do you also believe the EU invoked article V when they asked us to help with Ukraine? Since apparently you're all extremely slow and need things explicitly spelled out for you: It's not unreasonable to expect NATO countries to allow over flight and use of bases for the war against Iran. That doesn't mean anyone is trying to say that they are obligated to do anything under the treaty. The fact that they have been so unhelpful while we pay for a huge portion of their defense is a great indicator that maybe we should no longer contribute to their defense.

Just a quick heads up for people complaining (I'm not saying NATO is amazing) about the lack of support from NATO in Iran, perhaps read the charter: Defensive Only: Article 5 is invoked only when a member is the victim of an armed attack. If a NATO member initiates an attack, other members are not treaty-bound to help.
