  1. Congrats everybody. Whenever I get too pleased about the current Covid situation in Texas I remind myself the numbers could be even better if not for that dirty Governor.
  2. The dopamine hits of social media interactions have definitively moved the needle with that guy.
  3. This is not that surprising to me. Most of these soldiers are young and in peak physical condition. They probably see no reason for themselves to get it, right or wrong.
  4. Is this like the Kappa weekend? I never actually stayed in Galveston for that one. Almost all the locals leave town.
  5. Not everyone can be an alpha like kyle. I got laid before I could finish this post.
  6. I know. We just saw CBS willfully misrepresent the story around Florida vaccines and DeSantis. Anyone have any idea why they might’ve done that? Maybe because he’s the highest profile Republican nationally as of this moment? Do you think? The vast majority of mainstream media journalists are political activists at this point. I mean that list included NPR which is literally supported financially by one party at this point. What a fucking clown.
  7. The beginning highlights why this issue is so fascinating to me. Typically progressive people want free market. Typically conservative want regulation. To bring it back to COVID, it’s like all the millennials that are scared to death and the boomers that are more willing to take on the risk.
  8. It’s a tough argument. As Sacks makes his case, I can hear the retort I’ve heard others make so many times: If you hate a platform so much, nothing’s stopping you from making a new one. That argument feels flimsier than ever these days. When Trump got banned from Twitter, the argument was: So what? It’s Twitter. And Twitter is a private company. Jack Dorsey can boot whoever he wants. And anyway, Trump can go to Parler. But then Parler got kicked out of the Apple and Google app stores, so the argument became: well, you can still create a website. But then AWS stopped hosting Parler. As Sacks put it: “You shouldn’t have to build a new Internet to post a tweet.”
  9. So 45% of the unvaccinated are dumb. 86% of the vaccinated are pussies. Take what you want from that.
  10. One step closer to obsolescing public schooling. You can do virtual learning/home schooling through anywhere.
  11. The CR is less contentious? Well, duh. Everyone is pretty much on the same page.
  12. Looks like this is TBD. I’m not a lawyer, but this doesn’t seem black and white and it’s going to be litigated. Moving on, I posted that to show the ridiculous lengths the authorities are now going to squash dissent on Covid policy.
  13. Silencing professors from let me check my notes here, Harvard, Oxford, and Stanford. That includes a couple epidemiologists. These aren’t the Houston voodoo doc.
  14. Here’s some other pretty big news from yesterday. NYDIG is devoting whole division of their company to onboarding insurance companies. These companies don’t take capital allocation lightly. Mass Mutual, New York Life, Liberty Mutual, and Starr all publicly on board. New York Life CEO now has seat on board of NYDIG. It’s all becoming more entrenched every day.
  15. Here’s the Q1 numbers. Pretty impressive. The rare company nowadays coming public as a profitable enterprise. $122B held on the platform by institutions is pretty incredible. Have to figure that’s mostly BTC. As more big players hold large amounts it becomes harder and harder to “outlaw” Bitcoin. As far as valuation goes, idk. Crypto is obviously cyclical but looking at those growth numbers and net income of 750M per Q currently. It’s pretty fucking impressive.
  16. This isn’t like that baker in Denver I think that people keep trying to make bake big gay cakes, but you knew that.
  17. He’s obsessed with jail rape and Q Anon
  18. That’s why we need China’s rapid anal swab test. You’ll find out within 30-45 minutes if it’s safe to proceed. She can just wait there.
