Maybe a silly question but the Congress of Vienna was quite thoughtful in how it dealt with France in 1815 by not trying to completely humiliate it, which averted major war for a long time Why wasn't this same thoughtfulness extended for Germany at the Treaty of Versailles?

Visited the Golden Gate Cemetery today, where Admiral Nimitz - allied commander in the Pacific in WW2 - is buried My grandpa and his truck ran supplies for the Americans in Burma during the Pacific War, so this was a special visit for me. Kind of a wild full circle moment

I might kms. Institutional investors have been net home sellers for years and this is fundamentally a non issue. All this will accomplish is further strangle supply elasticity, pushing up prices when we experience another demand shock.

2025 was the year I fully fell in love with the kettlebell. I just wish these tools and this knowledge was available when I was in high school (same with calisthenics).
