@WallStreetApes Geez. Did you ever have fun or were you always a loser that found X so you can btch about life that you’re missing?

This is the LIV Beach pool area at Fontainebleau Hotel in Las Vegas Look how many people are packed into this pool and day club area If you didn’t know what you were looking at you might think this was a Petri dish I looked up the capacity and this area can have 2,000 people. I put the photo into AI and it says there are way more than 2,000 people in this area This isn’t just gross it’s dangerous - People likely wouldn’t notice someone drowning - Everyone would stampede in an emergency - It’s wet people could slip and get trampled - Most importantly, again it’s gross

@FreeFannie That's why I don't understand why F2 can't have the "steal" returned. Was there any court ruling that revealed this robbery? SCOTUS only ruled on some FHFA ruling but not on the robbery.

@NancySinatra When you get sick, I will offer to fly you to Mexico City to be treated? Deal?

So the country of Mexico can afford to do this great thing for its people but the USA, the richest country in the world can't? Ot maybe the bum in the White House refuses to help We the People. WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIM?

@budybet So then why point out the negative? Give him his dues. Smh

Guys, please stop with the hate. I just shared a video. This video wasn't meant to insult Juan. Of course, I know about the severe injuries he went through, and I'm genuinely happy that he can even stand on a court right now and bring joy to the fans. Obviously, he’s been retired for a few years now, and we can’t compare him to active pros, but anyone can see that his body is in a really tough shape. I didn't want to disrespect him, nor was I pointing out that he traveled all the way to Moldova just for a paycheck. I'm just glad he’s out there, and on top of that, he's the one who was helping young tennis players at junior tournaments and creating fun content with them. Juan is a great person. @jmgmoron @BastienFachan

Ignorant Arnaud, have you been and lived in the Philippines and seen how this govt works? It doesn't. It is now a laggard in the Southeast Asia. Why? Corruption and lack of enforcing laws. Maybe try growing this country in an administrative area where there's accountability, no corruption, etc? Ooh..someone might murder with a computer chip and it would be under American law. Idiot.

This is pretty insane: the U.S. just tried to literally re-colonize part of the Philippines. They did so under the so-called "Pax Silica" initiative, the brainchild of - surprise, surprise - an ex-Palantir guy named Jacob Helberg who now runs U.S. economic "diplomacy" from the State Department. It's causing a big outcry in the Philippines, which is quite a feat given this is by far the most US-friendly country in Southeast Asia. If you're the US and you're getting the Marcos administration - of all governments - to push back on sovereignty, you've really overplayed your hand. What is the "Pax Silica" initiative? In a nutshell it's about the US getting other countries to commit to restructuring their AI tech infrastructure around a US-led stack. It's basically vendor lock-in: you hand over your critical minerals, align your export controls with Washington's, regulate AI the way America wants, and in return you get to be a US "trusted partner," whatever that means these days. In essence, let's not kid ourselves, it's all about China: this is the US's initiative to "win the AI race" by getting other countries to contractually commit to keeping China out of their tech supply chains. When you can't preserve your lead through innovation, you seek to lock countries in contractually. For instance as a country, this would mean telling Huawei they can't sell you AI chips, and telling Chinese firms they can't invest in your data centers - even if they're better and cheaper. It's not about choosing the best technology, it's about choosing the right flag. But in this instance, the US went much further still: they literally tried to carve out 4,000 acres of Philippine territory (in New Clark City, 60 miles north of Manila) to be governed under US common law with diplomatic immunity - the first arrangement of its kind anywhere in the modern world. This is according to the WSJ who ran the story last month (wsj.com/world/asia/u-s…) as if it was a done deal (it wasn't). Heard about the "French concession" or "British concession" in China during the century of humiliation? Same thing: the US basically asked for an "American concession" in the Philippines. Unsurprisingly, there was quite a bit of backlash in the country with for instance the Peasant Movement of the Philippines (KMP) calling it a “massive sellout” of the country’s land, minerals, and sovereignty (punto.com.ph/us-led-pax-sil…). So much so that the Philippines' government - namely Joshua Bingcang, president and chief executive of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) - issued a statement saying that the Philippines had rejected US proposals that would place the project beyond local jurisdiction (asianews.network/philippines-re…). Note, by the way, this delicious irony: the BCDA is the government agency that was created in 1992 specifically to convert former US military bases at Clark and Subic Bay after the Philippines spent decades negotiating their closure. New Clark City - where the Pax Silica's hub would go - is built on the old Clark Air Base. So the agency whose entire reason for existing is to turn former American colonial territory (i.e. US military bases) into sovereign Philippine land is the one now being asked to hand part of that very same land back under US jurisdiction (and, apparently, declined). Of course though, blocking this specific jurisdiction grab doesn't change the bigger picture. The Philippines is still a Pax Silica signatory, and Pax Silica itself is structurally neocolonial: you supply the cheap labor and raw materials, align your export controls and regulations with Washington's, cut yourself off from the world's rising technological powerhouse - and in exchange you get assembly jobs and the privilege of getting a pat on the head and being called a "trusted partner." They dropped the most cartoonishly colonial demand - governing Philippine soil under US law - but the underlying architecture is the same: you serve America's supply chain, on America's terms, and you relinquish your sovereign right to trade with whoever offers the best deal.

@JaimeCarreno2 @JonOksenholt @pulte @realDonaldTrump the dk riding on useless midget is insane. Both F2 were making billions way before his big forehead went on Fox Business.

@JonOksenholt @pulte @realDonaldTrump Once again what has he done to turn the businesses around??? They have been on a clear path every year slowly improving... And as to what type of poster I am.. I have positions from 0.60 and I call out BS when I see it is all.

Freddie & Fannie $fmcc / $fmna are being run very well & the idea that I’m “sucking up” to @pulte @realDonaldTrump or anyone is ludicrous & contrary to my personality I say what I think! When I see inefficient management, I call it out. I did it with City Office REIT, where I challenged a Canadian based mgmt team overseeing a U.S. REIT & argued against Elliot Capital’s take private bid. When someone like Bill “turnaround king”Pulte is doing a great job while being unfairly attacked, I’ll probably compliment them even more!! Ps- Neither Bill “turnaround king” Pulte nor President Donald J. Trump are changing their views because of anyone’s posts…👇

@lMThomasWilson @MilestoneCapitl maybe you should stop hanging out at middle schools?

@MilestoneCapitl The comments on here about her looks are crazy. Personality critique and overall assessment are likely correct, but she’s cute as hell. Is there something wrong with me that I like girls who look like this?

Ain’t no fuckin way. I went on a date with this girl and she was utterly insufferable. Just kept taking pics with flash on at the dim restaurant we were in which was fine but she was also loud af. She’s also like 4 foot tall and completely flat so it felt like I was a pedo next to her. Utterly insufferable and kept comparing about finance bros while flexing her fake ass rich lifestyle. Oh and her apartment was filthy too. Girl had nothing going for her and yet claims she has “high ambitions” 💀. I blocked her immediately after the “date”. And she’s out here complaining about the men she dates. Talk about a roach calling the kettle black

@ColinNienaber You’re going to be working at 7-11 next.

We want Massie. Not JD. Not Rubio.

@mrnastynodrama Upset that 200 employees can lose $40 million a year on a $100 million budget. Do you get mad when your wife spends $5K a week when your salary is only $2K a week? Cuck.

A lot of people who have no idea how TV works are upset about the number of people in this photo

@realEstateTrent Telling us you’re white living in a white bubble without telling us. Nice I am white flex.

Been living in New York City for around five years now. Yes, it’s expensive, taxes are high, and there are some interesting characters walking around. Those are some of the costs. Here’s what we get: Access to the best restaurants in America, no matter what type of food you’re in the mood for. Everything our family needs is just a short walk away. You constantly get to see friends in person, as they’re always passing through. Some of the best public and private schools in America. The network you build here, just by going about your day-to-day life, is incredible. You run into some of the most interesting people doing the most amazing things at the highest level. Access to the best doctors in the world. The career opportunities here are immense, no matter what you do. Central Park – my go-to spot – never gets old. If you’re a shopper, there’s nowhere better in America. If you’re an entrepreneur, this city forces you to think bigger on a daily basis. Broadway, sports, concerts, comedy – the highest level of entertainment, right in your backyard. The subway. Yes, the subway – and yes, millions of normal people take it every day – gets you around this place like a time machine. It’s a wonderful place to raise kids. Every kids' activity you can think of is just blocks away. Our son loves the Natural History Museum, and endless playdates are available either in our building or within a three-minute walk. Maybe all those folks who can afford to live anywhere in the world but choose to raise their families here aren’t so crazy after all.

@j_fishback Closet homo say what?

I met her last week, got engaged on Wednesday, completed all of Catholic marriage prep on Thursday, found a venue Friday, and got married yesterday. Now hire me as Governor so I can deliver this level of speed and efficiency for Florida.

@Wommandrs Right. I am sure the black community would welcome a lesbian. Not.

I’d rather be a multi-time Women’s World Cup champion and Olympic gold medalist than a shit NFL quarterback

@NancySinatra You’re delusional

'For the first time in American history, an African American became president.' What a great day it was. What a great president he was.

@JOKAQARMY1 Stop the fake outrage. Move ok. Also get rid of the pony tail.

The baby groupie 🤔

@TheTennisLetter Naomi always playing the victim

Naomi Osaka on why she chose to host a party for the black tennis players: “You know I'm seeing a little bit of- ‘Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?’ and ‘what if someone had an all white party?! First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race + ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them. Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, ‘What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?’ I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks. Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come 🖤” (via Naomi on Threads)

@KenHeLive He's just a bathhouse guy.

Probably because Obama isn’t a racist sex offender.

@DRTnky Half of downtown Seattle is deserted with homeless people. Why are you being dishonest with your post?

@cmclymer Don’t be so gay dramatic

This is the first day in a world without CBS News Radio, which had been broadcasting since 1927. Through eighteen presidential administrations, nine popes, five British monarchs, and numerous wars. Nearly 100 years of journalism, gone like that. Bari Weiss killed it.

@sukh_saroy But doesn’t the parent have influence on their self control since they are young? Parenting would be a bigger factor.

A team of researchers in New Zealand followed 1,037 babies from the day they were born for the next 45 years to find out what actually determines a successful adult life, and the strongest predictor they found had almost nothing to do with intelligence or family wealth. The findings have been published in the most prestigious scientific journals in the world. Almost no parent has heard of them. His name is Avshalom Caspi. Her name is Terrie Moffitt. They are a husband and wife research team based at Duke University and King's College London, and the study they have spent their careers running is called the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study. It started in 1972 in a single hospital in Dunedin, New Zealand. Every baby born there in a 12-month window was enrolled. 1,037 of them. The study is still running today. The retention rate is the part that should astonish anyone familiar with how research usually works. After more than 45 years, over 90 percent of the original participants are still being tracked. Most longitudinal studies lose half their sample inside ten years. The Dunedin team has lost almost nobody. They measured everything. Blood. DNA. Brain scans. Income. Criminal records. Romantic relationships. Drug use. Dental health. Sleep. Mental health. Lung function. They flew participants who had moved abroad back to Dunedin every few years for a full day of assessments. Some of those people now live in seven different countries. They still show up. For the first decade of life, the team did something nobody else was doing systematically. They measured each child's self-control. Not IQ. Not family income. Not parenting style. Self-control. They watched 3-year-olds in a research lab and rated their ability to wait, regulate frustration, follow instructions, and resist impulsive reactions. They added teacher ratings. They added parent ratings. They added the children's own self-reports as they grew older. They combined all of it into a single highly reliable score. Then they did the thing nobody else had the patience to do. They waited. When the data came in at age 32, the result was so consistent it should be illegal to teach a child without it. The children who scored lowest on self-control at age 3 grew into adults with worse physical health, more substance dependence, lower incomes, more credit card debt, higher rates of single parenthood, more criminal convictions, and worse mental health than the children who scored highest. The pattern was not subtle. It was a clean gradient. Every step up in childhood self-control produced a measurable step up in adult outcomes across every domain the team could measure. The detail that should disturb every parent reading this is what happened when the researchers controlled for the obvious objections. When they controlled for IQ, the effect held. When they controlled for family income and social class, the effect held. When they compared siblings inside the same family, the sibling with lower self-control still had worse adult outcomes than the sibling with higher self-control. Same parents. Same house. Same dinner table. The trait was running independently of everything researchers expected to explain it. The paper landed in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2011. The title was as plain as it gets. "A gradient of childhood self-control predicts health, wealth, and public safety." It has been cited thousands of times since. Almost no policy maker has acted on it. The reason most people resist this finding is that it sounds like a sentence handed down before the child could speak. If the trait that determines your adult life is locked in by age 3, the rest of your life is a formality. The Dunedin researchers say that is the wrong way to read the data. They found something else in the same paper that almost nobody quotes. Some of the children whose self-control scores improved between childhood and adolescence ended up with adult outcomes far better than their early scores predicted. The trait is not destiny. It is a muscle. Children who learned to wait, regulate, and resist between ages 5 and 15 caught up with kids who started ahead. Self-control is the one childhood trait nobody seems to teach on purpose anymore. Schools focus on test scores. Parents focus on activities. Coaches focus on performance. The part of the brain that decides between five seconds from now and five years from now is left to develop on its own, and the data shows it usually does not. The most uncomfortable part of the research is the cost calculation Moffitt and Caspi ran. They estimated that if a country could move the bottom 20 percent of children up one rung on the self-control ladder, it would measurably reduce healthcare spending, welfare dependency, and incarceration costs at the national level. The intervention is cheaper than almost any other public health investment available. Almost no country has tried it at scale. The reason adults struggle with money, weight, addiction, and relationships is rarely intelligence. It is the gap between what you want right now and what you want in ten years, and which side of that gap your nervous system is built to listen to. Most people lost that fight at age 4 and never went back to learn the technique. You were not behind because life dealt you a bad hand. You were behind because the part of you that decides between right now and the rest of your life was never taught how to choose. The good news is the muscle is still there. Almost nobody trains it after age 10. You can be the one who does.
