@MalcolmNance @lalalitalive My nephew just joined the 75th Rangers. I’m worried about him.

It’s official. They’re fucking winging this. Yes this MEU was scheduled for an April deployment to INDOPACOM but it will take: - 22 days to get to the PG at max speed sustained (which means no port visits or stops) - 30 days to get there at average cruising speed. So clean up or backup for an unplanned amphibious campaign? No one knows. They’re winging it. At this point prepare for mobilization of the 82nd airborne, 75th Rangers, 10th Mountain and all the SOF in the world. Trump needs and offramp or this war will go on for the next year after he declares victory.

@dom_lucre I see it as the 1% flaunting their wealth communicating that they can drop $2000 on a plastic bag that resembles what too many use to hold what belongings they have left.

@gothburz @investingLive_ I was amazed at people paying teal money for digital clothes. I thought that was silly. I refused and just used what was free. This giy is on another level. I heard about the VR real estate but didn’t think much of it. Wow!

My net worth peaked at $1.2 million. None of it was real. I don't mean that philosophically. I mean it was located on servers that have since been turned off. I own eleven properties in the metaverse. Three in Decentraland. Four in The Sandbox. Two in Voxels. One in Otherside. And a beachfront villa in Horizon Worlds that I bought for $214,000 because Mark Zuckerberg called it "the next frontier." The frontier closed last week. It's a mobile app now. Last year I mass DM'd 340 people the phrase "you don't understand how early we are." I have since stopped doing that. Not because I was wrong. Because most of them blocked me. I got into metaverse real estate in November 2021. Everyone was buying. Someone paid $450,000 to be Snoop Dogg's neighbor. In a video game. With no legs. The avatars didn't have legs. I thought that was bullish. "The legs are coming," I told my Discord. "Legs are a roadmap item." Three hundred people reacted with rocket emojis. I called myself a "digital land baron." I put it in my Twitter bio. I put it in my LinkedIn headline. I said it on a podcast that had eleven listeners. Three of them were bots. The rest were my alts. My virtual property has more square footage than my actual apartment. My actual apartment has furniture. Location, location, location. My most valuable asset was a plot next to a virtual Gucci store. Gucci left in 2023. The store is still there. Nobody's in it. It's like a mall in Ohio but with worse graphics and no food court. I held. Diamond hands. That's what we said. "Diamond hands." It means refusing to sell while your investment loses 94% of its value. We turned financial paralysis into a personality trait. A guy in my Discord paid $2.4 million for a 618-parcel estate in Decentraland. Prime district. High foot traffic. I asked him what "foot traffic" meant when the platform had 38 daily active users. He said I didn't understand the technology. I didn't. I still bought more. We had a DAO. A decentralized autonomous organization. That means we voted on decisions. There were nine of us. Three never showed up. Two voted on everything without reading it. The other four were me and my alts. We voted to "acquire strategic parcels." The vote passed unanimously. I voted four times. My portfolio peaked at $1.2 million. I told everyone. I made a spreadsheet. I projected 40x returns by 2025. I made a pitch deck. The pitch deck had a slide that said "WE ARE BUILDING THE DIGITAL ECONOMY." The slide had a rocket emoji. That was my entire financial model. In 2023 I bought a Bored Ape for $189,000. It's worth $14,000 now. I don't talk about the Ape. I still use it as my profile picture. People ask me about it. I say "I'm long-term bullish." Long-term bullish means I can't sell it without crying in a Panera. My mom asked me what a Bored Ape was. I said "digital art on the blockchain." She asked why it cost more than her car. I said "you don't understand Web3." She said "I understand you live in a studio apartment." She's not in my Discord. Justin Bieber bought one for $1.3 million. It's worth about $90,000 now. I felt better about mine after I heard that. That's community. WAGMI. We're All Gonna Make It. We said that every day. In the group chat. While the floor dropped. While the volume dried up. While 95% of all NFT collections went to zero. We're all gonna make it. None of us made it. But we said it with conviction and a laser-eye profile picture. That counts for something. It doesn't. But we said it did. That's decentralized consensus. Meta spent $84 billion on the metaverse. I need to say that again. $84 billion. More than the GDP of Luxembourg. More than the GDP of Iceland, Luxembourg, and Malta combined. They spent it on a platform where the avatars had no legs, the graphics looked like a 2006 Wii game, and the peak user count was lower than the lunch rush at a Chipotle in Des Moines. They just pulled Horizon Worlds from VR headsets. It lives on as a mobile app. My beachfront villa is now a mobile app. Location, location, location. Zuckerberg renamed the entire company for this. Facebook became Meta. A $900 billion company changed its legal name because the CEO watched Ready Player One and said "I want that." Reality Labs lost $10 billion in 2021. $14 billion in 2022. $16 billion in 2023. $18 billion in 2024. $19 billion in 2025. That's not a strategy. That's a speedrun. They laid off 1,500 Reality Labs employees this year. Shut down three VR studios. Killed Supernatural. Put the entire VR social vision in a casket and said "we're pivoting to AI and wearables." The pivot took four years and $84 billion. I pivoted too. I'm an AI real estate investor now. I bought a virtual plot in an AI-generated world that doesn't exist yet. The founder said it was "the intersection of spatial computing and large language models." I don't know what that means. I gave him $40,000. He has a whitepaper. It's 47 pages. I read the title and the tokenomics section. The tokenomics section is a pie chart. I love pie charts. They make everything look like a plan. The project has a roadmap. Q1: "Build community." Q2: "Launch beta." Q3: "Scale ecosystem." Q4 is blank. Q4 is always blank. That's where the exit scam goes. My accountant asked me to value my metaverse portfolio for tax purposes. I said $1.2 million. He said "current market value." I said $6,400. He stared at me for eleven seconds. I know because I counted. He asked if I had any other investments. I showed him my NFTs. He stared for longer. I told him they were "cultural artifacts with long-term provenance." He asked if I'd considered a 401k. I told him a 401k was "legacy finance." He told me to leave his office. The metaverse is dead. I don't accept that. I am a digital land baron. I own eleven properties across four platforms. I have a beachfront villa in a mobile app, a plot next to an empty Gucci store, and a cartoon monkey that cost me more than my actual car. Location, location, location. The location is nowhere. But I'm early. I'm always early. That's the same as being wrong except you get to say it with confidence.

@DhruTech @kshvbgde That's average. You're not considering golden parachutes by any director/VP level layoffs. I can guarantee the average worked got like 4 weeks pay. Some go as low as 2 weeks pay. The hope is they let you know 30-90 days in advance to give you time to find other employment.

@kshvbgde That’s an average of $54k/person, they think they’re gonna save that much?

DELL just laid off 11,000 jobs and spent $569M on their severance.

@queenie4rmnola So much energy to tear things down and destroy them than to build them up. There is enough wealth and resources on this earth for everyone. Just because one person needs a hand doesn't mean those that can provide will lack.

Louisiana owes much it's wealth to New Orleans but refuses to properly invest in New Orleans.

WHAT’S HAPPENING TO THE GRID RIGHT NOW? This isn’t just one location. New Jersey — freeway lights started flickering all at once. A full stretch… moving together. On. Off. On. Off. That’s not random. And here’s what makes this different… I’ve received hundreds of reports like this from around the world. 👇 Is this just a glitch… or something affecting the grid? #MrMBB333 #PowerGrid #NewJersey

@JORNXN @BRICSinfo Wealthy people have ruled this world since Jesus was alive. There have been no casting down. As a matter of fact, those evil wealthy people are still thriving. Their children are thriving. Their children's children are thriving. Still waiting on the casting down part.

Psalm 73:3–12 hits hard: ‘For I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked… they have no struggles; their bodies are healthy and strong… Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure…’ But then the truth hits in verse 17–19: ‘You place them on slippery ground; you cast them down to ruin. How suddenly they are destroyed…’

It’s called buyer’s remorse. Very frequent in ultra pretend to be capitalists nations.

Since 1989, more than 1,471 exonerated Black people have lost over 15,000 years of freedom due to false convictions. Of course, this is only an estimate innocenceproject.org/news/facts-rac….

@queenie4rmnola That translates to lost wealth generating potential for their families. People judge black people on the surface without any concern for looking underneath to see the actual systemic issues that plague the black community. False narratives remove the feared guilt of the complicit

@best_cryptobest @unusual_whales Always follow the money.

@unusual_whales If the US actually unsanctions Iranian oil mid-war to cap prices, that's a massive signal energy costs are forcing policy faster than battlefield gains. Thoughts on where Brent heads next?

US may ‘unsanction’ Iranian oil to ease pressure from US-Israeli war, per Aljazeera

@Tiffany23_SA @BRICSinfo Oil conglomerates. They rise the price of oil when it becomes scarce. Then when this is over, they can lower the prices slowly taking profit. Oil companies always benefit from war. War requires tons of fuel on both sides.

@BRICSinfo Who's benefiting financially from all these destructions? Because there's someone definitely benefiting
