guess I’m never going to Arctic Antarctica!

FTFY.

Sorry it’s the inner nerd in me!

It’s scary and yet many people refuse to believe in climate change. I’ve had argument with a denier on social media. I can tell that the person is not being deliberately malicious, because he did let up on some points, but he’s the type to kick the can down the road and hopelessly hoping to deal with the problem later on. I think a lot of people who handwaves the seriousness of climate change prefer to look the other way. I know far too many people who are like this even if it’s not about climate change.

Healthcare, consumer staples and utilities are considered to be defensive stocks because they are always needed regardless of economic situation.

I am minimising my exposure to US stock market as well. There is the perception that the European stock market doesn’t have the explosive growth the way that US stocks does but it is at least safer.

Japan could also be considered safe and their stock market have been on the rise after 30 years of stagnation.

I have not watched TV in years. Is there anything specific you are talking about?

I heard there is resurgence of religion but it looks like it’s not enough.

Do people actually flex how much of less sleep they got? I never met anyone who do this.

Are there open source TVs?

Yeah, I only go out on occasions.

A lot of folks don’t really think about it. A man could be gone, but his ideas and legacy will live on. We are short term thinking and instinctive animals prone to collective suicide.

Scammers in general, not just hackers, get hired by the government for countermeasures. Jordan Belfort, the real guy whose life was depicted in The Wolf of Wall Street, was hired by the government to identify frauds.

If it makes you feel better, in Sweden, the average age of students is 25. Why? A lot of them do what they want and figure things out first before deciding. A lot travel, work, or save money before going to college. It’s the norm for them.

Meanwhile for the rest of the world, we’re pressured to figure things out as soon as we leave high school. Looking back, it’s mainly because we are pressured by our parents to go to college. It became a status symbol and bragging rights for them if their kids went to college.

People ask why there aren’t many wealthy donating to the left, here is one of the reasons why. Soros gets shit upon for doing this. There is a British billionaire who did the same and got mobbed for it. Any rich folks donating to progressive causes gets character assassination from the right. Meanwhile, right wing billionaires gets a free pass because they have taken control of the media and brainwashed the masses to vote against their own interest.

Supporting Palestine is actually a far more popular sentiment than what the rich care to realise. They just don’t want to lose the wallets of tiny minority of 20% of bigots as potential customers. It’s like with many businesses complying with conservative backlash but end up losing more customers and revenue for bending over. Target complied with anti-DEI measures from Trump, while Costco didn’t. Guess which of the two got more customers. That’s why the accusations of “go woke, go broke” does not hold water at all.

Look like Trump is in dire straits.

All of them I think? The Anglo Saxon culture still dominates and founded the basis of American culture itself.

What I like about Talarico is that he and I think alike when he said the only bad minorities are billionaires.

Because private companies be doing private things as usual. The only corporation who stood up to Trump is the BBC because A) they’re foreign entity and do not answer to Trump and B) they are a public broadcasting company who answer to the public.
