@rohindhar Both people overpaid.

@ThrillaRilla369 It made 70 yr old white liberal people feel like they accomplished something. They know every other day they accomplish nothing.

Do you think the left’s “No Kings” protest accomplished anything?

@CryptoCoffee369 Bro. Peptides are a total cheat code to anatomy. Its insane so few have done deep research into them.

So the guy famous for big pharma price gouging and going to jail for securities fraud says peptides bad and we don’t need to research them anymore? And ignores anecdotal evidence and foreign science based evidence and unrecognized US based evidence and relies on appeals to authority or “absence of evidence means evidence of absence” which is a false dichotomy and also an argument from ignorance? Cool

@a16z Ive seen retardmaxxing in action. it works!

Marc Andreessen on introspection and the benefits of retardmaxxing: "There's this guy on YouTube who has basically a hundred videos on retardmaxxing." "He's like my new life coach. I haven't met him, but from a distance." "It's basically just—retardmaxx. Go to work, do a good job, come home, it's fine. Start a company, it succeeds, it fails, it's fine. Have too much to eat one night at dinner, it's fine. Go to the gym, don't count your reps, it's fine. Ask a girl if she wants to go out with you, if she says no, it's fine." "It's like 100 30-minute videos about retardmaxxing. And you would think that after the first two minutes, he kind of covered it. But no." "And by the way, they're all hysterical. They're all absolutely fantastic. It's literally him on his porch in the middle of nowhere with a cigar, and it's like a half hour." "It's just absolutely spectacular." @pmarca with @HarryStebbings

@ukhomeoffice When making a pronunciation that is out of character. Maybe dont do it on April 1. Just a bit of advice.

The grooming gangs scandal is one of the darkest moments in our country’s history - where the most vulnerable were abused and exploited by evil child rapists. The independent national Inquiry will now begin its work to uncover how these crimes were allowed to happen and root out failure wherever it occurred. The Inquiry will be laser‑focused on grooming gangs and will explicitly examine the role of ethnicity, religion and culture - including how institutions responded. There will be no hiding place for the predatory monsters who committed these vile crimes.

@elonmusk Thank you. For my custom 2022X plaid and 2024 CT foundation, Beast! I love them both.

Custom orders of the Tesla Model S & X have come to an end. All that’s left are some in inventory. We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars. This was me at production launch 14 years ago:

@1s3xnk You might be a little too legal minded to be a landlord in NYC. Just sayin’

#NYC #LandlordRights #HousingCrisis #SquatterCrisis I’m a NYC landlord. A tenant used fake financial documents and a bounced check to get into my property. He has now lived there for 8 months — without paying a single dollar. My losses are over $50,000 and still growing. Police won’t act. DA won’t act. The system tells me: go to housing court and wait. I followed the law. I hired a lawyer. I even gave him extra time to leave. He’s still there. Let me ask a simple question: When someone uses fraud to take your property, why is it treated like a normal tenant dispute? This system doesn’t protect honest people. It punishes them. NYC talks about a “housing crisis.” But who would rent out their property under these conditions? This is not just my story. This is happening to small landlords across New York. And nobody is fixing it.

@AIDRIVR @battleangelviv Ive taken my CT down unmarked country roads, countless times, easy breezy.

@battleangelviv I was using FSD leaving San Francisco when the power outage froze the Waymos my family was with me telling me the navigation was wrong and made no sense, turns out it was avoiding all the blocked intersections

Tesla FSD doesn’t require internet or cell service, all inference runs locally on the vehicle

@IGGYAZALEA @gamdomsport @gamdom I did something similar on a tennis match once. My guy was loosing badly, and his opponent pulled his hamstring, so I won. I quit those bets that day.

I know it's unhinged I bet 40k just to make $1600 but I was 100% sure sinner would win 🤷‍♀️😂 I figured: free money, why not?

@Keir_Starmer April fools is tomorrow.

I will always make decisions that are in the national interest. It’s why we aren’t getting dragged into the Middle East conflict, and why we are fighting to protect your living standards. And while opposition parties have responded by dividing communities, we respond with hope and pride. Pride in our communities, and the hope of a country that’s better for our children. That’s what we’re fighting for. Vote Labour on Thursday 7 May.

@DrDiGiorgio Its called slavery. We have allowed our government to think they own us and our output.

Finished our taxes and came to a realization: In a two-physician household, one spouse's income is entirely confiscated by the government.

@thfcroki Everyone that is properly hydrated.

Who the fuck pees 6 times a day

The planning on staying for 5 years is the catch. You dont know for sure, what the housing market looks like in 5 years. You might be stuck there, you might have doubled. Interest rates can and will change possibly dramatically in those 5 years, Anyone planning on living somewhere for 5 years should just rent. So they will have the freedom to leave in 5. Buy a house when you want to plant roots.

I'm doing some back of the envelope math on buying vs renting. Say you buy a $1M house with 20% down at about 6% mortgage rate and plan to stay there for five years. Your principal paydown in the first five years is about $57,000, but you've paid about $230,000 in interest. You've also paid roughly $100,000 in property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Say the house appreciated 2.5% every year — so when you sell it's worth about $1.13 million. Your all-in costs to sell are about 7.5% — brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, attorney fees, title insurance, and the inevitable post-inspection negotiation. On a $1.13M sale that's about $85K in fees. So you net about $1.046M. You still owe $743K on the mortgage. You walk away with about $303K in cash — your $200K down payment back, your $57K in principal, and about $46K in net profit from appreciation. Your non-recoverable costs — interest, property tax, insurance, maintenance — were about $330K over five years, or about $5,500/month. That's your effective rent. But you "made" $46K selling, or about $770/month — so your effective rent was about $4,700/month. Not bad, but you tied up $200K for five years to get there. And if appreciation was 1.5% instead of 2.5%, that net gain basically disappears and you're paying $5,400+/month in effective rent. And this assumes there's appreciation at all — and that something doesn't go wrong with your house that needs a major remodel or repair. On a five-year horizon at 6% rates, you need everything to go right on appreciation just to make ownership competitive with renting. The transaction costs eat most of your upside. What am I missing? Anything?

@EmilySm43 15-18 depending on if Im paying cash or card.

Be honest

@Hex_Turbo @Tobiwan_Hexobi Feels very bottomish. But calling the bottom usually means we still need more pain. I hope not.

Fuck it, I'm calling the bottom on this cunt. You heard it here first, PulseChain has officially bottomed. Up only from here. Send it. This is 100% financial advice. Now fuck off! Twat.

Proof of stake solves this. If quantum computing breaks everyone’s seed phrases, than every account that uses a password is broken everywhere in the world anyways. All militaries, and governments will be broken and every camera in the world could be viewed by anyone with that technology.

Google's new quantum computer could kill crypto by 2029. This is coming from Google itself, not a fringe prediction. They've already updated their internal deadline after a breakthrough that made cracking crypto encryption 20x more efficient than previously thought. I'll be live with @Mysten_Labs co-founder and chief cryptographer @kostascrypto to break down what this actually means for your bags. LIVE in 90 MINUTES. [link in comments]

@BernieSanders Lets just vote to take your money Bernie. That seems more fair to me.

Ok, Jamie: Let me clear things up for you. If my 5% wealth tax on billionaires was enacted you’d owe $135 million more in taxes & a family of 4 making $150,000 or less would receive a $12,000 payment. Oh, and you’d still be worth more than $2.5 billion. Seems pretty fair to me.

@PramilaJayapal Taking away the one incentive to move to Washington is a Mistake. But enjoy the consequences.

Washington State keeps showing up for working people!! The Millionaires' Tax is now law in my home state – making the ultra-wealthy finally pay their fair share while delivering free school meals for every kid, affordable child care, tax relief for small businesses, and direct checks to nearly 500,000 working families. While Trump and Republicans gut programs working people depend on, my home state is proving that a different path is possible. This is what it looks like when we come together and deliver! 💜

@MarioNawfal Half of America would voluntarily spend 1 yr in prison for 2 million dollars. And that’s guaranteed getting caught and paying the year penalty, how many dont get caught or pay any penalty at all.

🇺🇸Abdul Abubakar Ali stole millions, faked 1.3M meals, and got 1 single year in prison This is the fraud that embarrassed Minnesota nationally The fraud Walz let happen And the punishment is basically a timeout Deport him and everyone else involved
