Market will not crash until after April, so insiders who bought in a year earlier when Trump manipulated the market can exit with cap gains taxes just in time. Funny thing, Warsh is due to take over as Fed chair in May and spike the rates then. My guess is that's when it happens

@DudeWhoInvests Oil shitco's and Venture Global

What stocks did you buy this past week?

@eigenrobot @kenthecowboy_ Well, here goes nothin'...

@kenthecowboy_ brute force and amphetamines

SO has anyone been someone who didn't have their shit together, and then become someone who consistently has their shit together? If so, how did you do it?

I've always wondered this. Like do western business executives look down on someone for being a post-soviet oligarch? I could see arguments for either way. One way to look at it is you're just playing *the game,* wherever you happen to be; and if it involves lethal polonium doses to your rival rather than beating their quarterly earnings in that part of the world, are you no better or worse, as far as skill is concerned?

New York did this! If you became a millionaire by building railroads you were new money and beneath the old millionaires that got rich by skinning a bajillion beavers.

@theepicmap Fascinated as to why there is *nothing at all* on this coast above Vancouver. Becomes completely empty immediately north of that city

Why do I never hear about the Coast Mountains of Canada?

@n3inri @Radical_Rebel07 Should have had Taimanov, Larsen, Petrosian, and Spassky as the people he mogged but I'll take it. This is amazing

@Concubinist Ngl this goes hard because there are no women. He really about that shii fr

Performative talibro flexing Bell Hooks and Sylvia Plath but failing to impress the cute foid from his village because she can’t read

@Concubinist Indie, sensitive, Soft Boy

@ad0rnai I don't think of anybody from high school more than once every 6 months; this mindset seems so alien

there certain type of person whose life never panned out like they hope it would so they seethe at people from high school

@mil000 It'd work on me ngl

A16Z spent like $800 per person to bring them out to Napa and now they have like 500 A16Z propaganda bots that will defend or just not comment on future A16Z controversies because of the good experience they had up in Napa. Classic wine and dine.

@DarthVulpine @SCHIZO_FREQ Nope

@Wockcrafter @SCHIZO_FREQ My aura grows with every sent text. You need to up your text game, boy.

When you saw people posting their conversations with the opposite sex online it used to be like "Hey" "hey" "Whats up" "nm u" "Thinking about going to bed" "lol r u sleepy?" "No but got work" "oh lmao you should sleep" "Can't get off my phone haha" Now they're all some form of bizarre psychological combat, wherein the participants try and "own" each other to the imaginary audiences they're about to post this for

@ShaleTier7 @atelicinvest Never deleting this app lmfao this is incredible hahahahahahahaha

Look, I'm a boomer, and every bone in my body is screaming that this is a bubble, ppl are just using it for performative work, etc., but talking to people with real jobs. I'm fairly certain that we're still going to ramp on token demand by a few orders of magnitude from here. We are nowhere near the peak of deployment. The tricky part is that, even at current subsidised rates, this demand is uneconomical to serve. There's still a lot of disruption to happen below the line in how we go about serving this demand

@goodalexander @tszzl Same thing that came before it: Feudalism

@tszzl what comes after capitalism?

it does seem that this time, unlike others, it is fair to characterize it all as ‘late stage capitalism’

@DeepDishEnjoyer Final submission, exit-level emo about 10 years early: youtube.com/watch?v=rHcimo…

shill me your favorite 20th century albums that predicted musical trends a decade or two in advance

@ViolenceIsMe @DeepDishEnjoyer Priceless lmao

@DeepDishEnjoyer @vanillager Last 5 years a bunch of bands have ripped this album off (non-deragatory); "Black Country, New Road" being the most prominent one

@vanillager great album but what is it anticipating?

@DeepDishEnjoyer Early Grunge (about 10 years early, á la Wipers): youtube.com/watch?v=oP38Ye…

@DeepDishEnjoyer Early Ambient: youtube.com/watch?v=sDfcp4…

@DeepDishEnjoyer A bit yeah, it still seems so out of place though; this came out in Cleveland at the time. Totally out of the blue

@Wockcrafter oh for sure it's still impressive, but just "most ahead-of-its-time song ever" is definitely exaggerating, even for the 70s

@DeepDishEnjoyer May I submit, the most ahead-of-its-time song ever (standalone single though, not an LP): youtube.com/watch?v=PFbLZX…

@BuschPhysics @DeepDishEnjoyer Was thinking of posting this album here, surreal how new it sounds

@DeepDishEnjoyer This is legitimately a Tame Impala song 40 years prior

@DeepDishEnjoyer Being 5 years ahead of your time in the 60s-70s is a lot! This and "30 Seconds Over Tokyo/Heart Of Darkness" were utterly groundbreaking

@Wockcrafter this is definitely ahead of its time but not by *that* much, prolly like half a decade or so
