Gold bug / silver bug / numismatic / metals thread
I was poking around on Provident metals, and they have various foreign mints at premiums under 10%, a few of them at barely 2%. The Britannias offer 1/10 oz. I don't know if they do 1/4 oz. Just browsing I saw the 2% mark up on Swiss 20 Francs, .1867 oz but well-known everywhere. Random-date Mexican coins can be found at reasonable mark ups. The old ones have odd weights but they are close to being 2 pesos = 1 US dollar pre-1933 gold.

Gotdammit I Just Got Scammed
Blessing in disguise. I quit using the original checking account so it's like I have two savings accounts. Collect money in Square, Venmo, and cash, pay for things mostly with cash like it's 1993 in Mexico, "Hell No I'm not busting a $20 bill for that" x several times a day.

She seems too dumb to realize that there is a wheelchair ramp off the sidewalk and that she is blocking it.

2026 Surly 10,000 Pushup Challenge
Instead of strings of artificial exercises, why not measure progress by real-life situations, eg, by fights? In a good-sized town you could have one fight a day in a different bar before you double up in any of them. And by "bar" I'd include "Parking lot of Applebee's." No Waffle Houses because we're not looking to get killed. Seems like the perfect place to fight would be in a Chinese restaurant with a vestigial bar, y'know, two never-used chairs in front of a tiny rack of dusty liquor bottles. The cooks and waitstaff would circle you, posing and gesticulating as they attack one at a time. Whole code of silence thing so no cop trouble, plus it'd count as a week's worth of fights in one evening.

I caught the cancer
The other morning I did my routine blood pressure check, it was a bit low, 90-something over 60, I knew the cardiology nurses would call. Phone rings, I answer "Hi, I knew you would call once you saw that it was only 90 over 60." I'm laughin at the routine. Turns out it's the pharmacist, calling about something else. She'd freakin out like I'm gonna die, but I've had way worse than this, I'll just slam some water and eat something salty. I tell her it's alright, then we talk about my cancer drugs, no big deal, all friendly and stuff. Not long after, I get a message on the UAB portal from the oncology nurse who is worried about me because the pharmacist says she recommended I go to the clinic and I refused treatment. I got no memory of this. I suspect the pharmacist is a person that if you make a declarative sentence, it's assault. And by the way, by some quirk of the portal, I can't reply to the oncology nurse. I need to go to Mexico City.

Yep I'd be a cat on a dinosaur man myself. Did a whole series of Ape cowboys on dinosaurs, will see if I can scare up a link. Meanwhile Mrs. Canecutter bought me a half-dozen batique Hawaian shirts that I could wear every day and sometimes do. No images printed on them, but the "Fuck your TPS reports" is understood. https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Cowboy-Ape-Tames-Pterodactyl-by-WalterMoore/72979877.1YYVU?asc=u- Karen of the Year
She's got potential. Imagine feeding her a bottle of vodka then turning her loose on the SGA bastards at your high school reunion.- Karen of the Year

Might be time to go old-school and talk on a phone. PS: I bought bullets for all the mighty hunters in my family, who if not MAGA are certainly not Liberal. Kinda like arming my own Varangian Guard.- Comic Relief: Satirical Tweets and Memes
I dunno-- put them in an enclosed area, and the Neanderthal wins 9 out of 10. For AOC or any other gracile Homo Sapiens Sapiens to shine, you need to give them more room, chances to innovate, missile weapons, and possibly a chance for better language skills to come into play. Most likely scenario is a stalemate lasting some 50,000 years, with the AOCs dominating coastal lands, and MTGs holed up in hilly terrain.- Mr. Tuberville goads to Washington
Late-Stage Wallace was better than Tubbs would be. Not crazy drama Schoolhouse-door Early Wallace, that guy had to have been paid by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.- Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
Few years back we were playing with an antenna to look at broadcast TV. There were all sorts of stations that would come and go over the course of a few months. I found one that was 24 hours of Blacksploitation movies. Beautiful photography, fine music, they were mostly just regular detective movies except a couple of the cast were Black and got front billing. I felt like I was back in Westside Jr. High for a few weeks, then poof, another "live" costume jewelry sale.- Shooting at Brown University

No thanks. In 2003 I was standing in an English class in Mexico trying to teach them words by charades. "Break" came up, and I hit my neck with one hand and the side of my head with the other. A little too hard. There was a pop. For a few seconds I and the class looked at each other, as I waited for my body to collapse under me. Thoughts like "what a stupid way to go out" flashed through my mind. Pencils are cheap. Snap a pencil in two if you're teaching English.- I caught the cancer
