@paperstreetsoup @florida_grand And our Cape is just a little ways past Apalach. Worth the extra few miles.

Despite the massive influx of people and new developments happening to Florida, the Sunshine State still has miles upon miles of old country. You can find it on roads like 301 and 41. #silverlinings

Wait a darn minute. My sister in law just told me to make sure I take all my mosquito shots before I go to Costa Rica in a few weeks.
Um...say what? I am vaccine hesitant after covid vaccines and the mrna bs.
Please tell me she was joking because I am definitely not taking anything. I will however take mosquito spray. As in OFF.
ADVICE?!

If I’m a black athlete I am reconsidering my commitment to UF right now. A school that very publicly takes its queue from its rich landowning alumni as I’ve talked about in the past and plays the race card for political reasons is not a place for elite African-American athletes.
Jason Garcia@Jason_Garcia
I think this is getting very close to becoming true. Over the last few years, Florida's elected leaders have made it clear that they see UF as just another political tool to be used like any other state college or university.

@Joe_knows_ball That’s a tough one. I feel like skynyrd is an easier listen, but on the right day and at the right time, ABB is 👌

@gbstone2 @Rick_Ferri Take a look at target date funds. They allocate on glide-paths, reducing equity as you near retirement
English
@paperstreetsoup @Rick_Ferri Thats interesting I'm going to see what the average allocation is.
English
Another flawed theory about how index funds will crash the stock market comes from the false assumption that 1) boomers will soon sell stocks to fund retirement, and 2) boomers own most of their stock in index funds. Both of these assumptions are flawed.
English
@DoDataThings @KobeissiLetter 62% of the general population owns equities directly, or in their retirement accounts. And the u mish sentiment survey has TDS
English
Top 10% of households own 87% of equities, so the $SPX line and the UMich line aren't measuring the same population. Sentiment captures the median paycheck (savings rate just fell from 6.2% to 4%), the index captures the owner class. The 44.8 print is below every recessionary read on record while the asset side is still compounding.
English
Absolutely incredible:
Over the last 6 years, the S&P 500 has risen +130% while US Consumer Sentiment has collapsed by -55%, to its lowest since data began in 1952.
We are witnessing the formation of the biggest wealth divide in modern history.
The Kobeissi Letter@KobeissiLetter
BREAKING: US Consumer Sentiment officially falls to its lowest level on record in data going back to 1952, down another -10% last month. Consumers now see inflation rising to 4.8% over the next 12 months. This puts the Consumer Sentiment index down -21% since February 2026, before the Iran War. Not even the 1980s saw Consumer Sentiment this low.

@FredtheGerman 2 of 3 degrees were from UF, so yes.
But just because you’re an immigrant, doesn’t make your struggles more compelling, or worthy, of mine.
English
@paperstreetsoup You do realize that that’s how college essays work right?
English
I’m so tired of my alma mater sucking at football, failing to hire competent leadership, and parroting inflammatory MAGA propaganda. 15 years ago I got into UF on an appeal by describing the challenges I overcame as an immigrant. Today they’d throw my letter right into the trash.

.@EDSecMcMahon is correct. DEI is discriminatory by design, antithetical to the purpose of a university, and incompatible with the pursuit of truth. The University of Florida has already acted on that conviction. In December 2025, our Board of Trustees adopted institutional neutrality and embedded an anti-DEI mandate within the presidential contract itself, ensuring that no university funds, public or private, will underwrite DEI at this institution. Dr. Stuart Bell stands with Secretary McMahon, the Board, and the people of Florida on this. He is ready to lead UF forward as a university defined by merit, rigor, and the pursuit of truth.

@PartyPolitical7 @JohnJHarwood Put the phone down and take those meds, ok?

@JohnJHarwood Dart stands with a goddamn traitor and pedophile. These should be a dealbreaker 100% of the time for 100% of the people.
English
that's because Jaxson Dart was speaking up for an immoral sociopathic criminal who is severely damaging America
Steve Kerr has been speaking up for morality and decency and genuine American values
Pro-America | Politics & Markets@Pro__Trading
Democrats are crying over Jaxson Dart, but had no problem with Steve Kerr going on political diatribes for the last 5 years after the games.
English
@pupperstate @Sherlock_Phox Actually, the statement was issued because the incoming president led DEI efforts at the University of Alabama.
English
@Sherlock_Phox Likely dictated straight from the new president, and the parallel with the disgusting shit coming from official fed govt accounts is not lost on me
English
Considering the anti DEI crusade is about rolling back the civil rights movement, pretty ugly moment for UF to so gleefully jump on board

@CarolWi77447719 @Annette_Taddeo Yes. You should definitely stay far, far away from Florida

@Annette_Taddeo I am praying Floridians are finally getting tired of decades of Republican, lies, corruption, fascism and fleecing the taxpayers dry. Florida is a failed and fascist state.

Florida homeowners insurance increased 75% in 4 years- double the national rate!

It's just embarrassing for an official university account to be posting this MAGA propaganda slop. UF has seen better days

@RealAbs1776 @mommynahndbaskt Kyle Busch was publicly anti-vax. Just before we start with that BS.
English
Kyle Busch died of sepsis caused by pneumonia.
I’m sorry, but this makes little to no sense.
With the money and access to treatment he had - someone either missed something or misdiagnosed something.
How was he so sick with pneumonia that it became sepsis, yet 2 days prior he was kart racing with his kid?
If his pneumonia were that far along, would he not have been damn near bed ridden?
And what was his team doing letting him race while being that sick to begin with?

@RealAbs1776 @mommynahndbaskt 146 IQ here and I was smart enough to look at your other posts and see that you are indeed an idiot.
English
@mommynahndbaskt Yes. I’m an idiot with an IQ over 140. Good call, chief. 👍🏻
I’d say the “idiot” is the one who drinks the kool-aid of every narrative thrown at us while refusing to ask questions.
I bet you think the vax was safe and effective too, huh?

@UF @EDSecMcMahon I’m literally ashamed and embarrassed for family members that graduated from UF. What a travesty! And entire state being formed that is ignorant and racist. DEI is literally about simply trying to provide a level playing field. You inbreds are too dumb to understand it.

Secretary Linda McMahon@EDSecMcMahon
We need bold leaders to reorient higher education toward merit, truth-seeking, and academic rigor. Florida has led the fight to get discriminatory DEI out of our schools and universities. UF deserves a president who will continue to drive those reforms.
English
@Jdp227 @UF @EDSecMcMahon Well if you are against DEI. Then what would you call it!
You cannot say you are for diversity then say it’s bad to make sure that every American has the same opportunities!
