Gavin Newsom can go fuck himself

@yogthos

There is a respectable chance that they are simply trolling for more money in at this time building those sweet suite government subsidies, they’re angling for

@CinnasVerses

When I see the individuals who present themselves of spiritual leaders or leads of some sort, I come pre-trained with with some understanding that people like that are chameleons.

@CinnasVerses

Is no limit to the number of grifters that emerge from the woodwork.

An education at UC Berkeley in the late 80s was A perfect education for exactly this phenomena because you could see them peddling their wares everywhere in the center quad, trying to convince people to hand over their wallets and critical faculties

@HotWheelsVroom

Yeah, you wanna bet it was vibe coated recently.

I think I will keep the transcription error from Apple translation because vibe coated sounds about right

@jankforlife

Priceless!

@Powderhorn

The real poison is politicizing monetary policy, but I will be very blunt about this manipulating interest rates only preserves the purchasing power of creditors, interest income.

Using interest rates to shape economic activity is like feeding horses, oats to guide the direction of a carriage.

@tacoplease

I’m curious if that includes all the fire services… God it would be that stupid too

@geneva_convenience

It’s so rich because private equity is the most opaque financial sector in a modern economy. Many of the people who are buying into their investment schemes are contractually obligated to keep it in them or suffer a penalty they have no idea how their money is being utilized many years now PE has not performed well

@Powderhorn

It seems like restaurants should put sedatives into the food they serve these people and claim self-defense

@yogthos

You’ll have to watch carefully the number to look at is total energy consumption.

Feel free to explain why people’s energy bills and my energy demand from data centers slated grow exponentially

@yogthos

The rate they are in increasing energy demand might have the planet boiling within 10 years.

@swlabr yup

@gerikson @BlueMonday1984

A16z, like everything big tech, is AI.

It is wretched bullshit.

@CharlesDarwin

I don’t think they care so much. They are talking about this stuff now or are very close to it.

JD Vance and Mike Johnson changing the narrative simply by trivializing it so the news completely ignores it, which they’re mostly doing already

@givesomefucks @ExtremeDullard

Consider that it was enough when people canceled their streaming service subscription in droves to tumble Disney stock market valuation

Companies that lose their customers don’t have a good time

@RememberTheApollo_

OMG I think this is an opening for an absolutely different kind of green new deal. Wait till I find out how the weather is being modified.

And I’m going to have to ask now that the Republicans are in charge of everything with the next big disaster occurs. What is she gonna do?

@MicroWave

Fuck, they are going ahead and normalizing this. The coup continues to consolidate its grip.

This is death by strangulation

@yogthos

The people’s tariff 100%, tariff imposed by not buying shit from big box store.

Consider it a 100% wealth tax by taking money before they ever get it.
