This would be very amusing if it weren’t for the higher tax bills from higher interest costs bc there weren’t any surprises or news. The rate decision was expected (even w/ 3 dissents) & the presser was just 45 min of obfuscation w/ some word salad thrown in. This shouldn’t have been a result.

Again his ideological preoccupation about the size of the balance sheet having undue influence on the price level. If the his task force dedicated to this ? comes back and tells him that his theory has no empirical evidence & little theoretical coherence will he drop it?

This nonsense about rising yields having anything to do with removing forward guidance & ‘the markets playing the referee rather than the ball’ is astoundingly stupid.

This is probably as close as I'll get to a perfect score. It helps having rounds 3, 4, & 5 located in SA & round 2 near where I had just traveled. www.maptap.gg July 28 100🎯 99🎯 98🔥 100🎯 99🎯 Final score: 992

If the ‘Public’s Guess’ is taken from survey(s) with identical questions & assuming Catholicism, Atheism, Judaism, & Islam are mutually exclusive w/ say Protestantism… than the participants in aggregate believe that there are < 0 Protestants in the entire country. A negative number of Protestants.

Bret’s entire rant is spot-on but this really is the crux of it.

That one felt inevitable

Both the President of the United States & the Secretary of Defense - the two people in command of the most dangerous arsenal in the history of mankind - subscribe to a worldview & possess an attitude virtually indistinguishable from the immature 5 year old that is starting fights on the playground.

I’ve spent a silly amount of time on this app the past couple weeks. I’m going to laugh when I get that notification on Sunday morning about my iPhone usage. www.82-0.com/share?id=760...

! A fun claim to (not really) fame & something I like to use in 2 truths 1 lie is that I once struck out 4 batters in an inning 2x in a game in high school.

1) There has been irreparable damage. There’s no going back to Jan ‘17. Or even Jan ‘25. 2) It is a rational coping mechanism. And yet my wife and I are making plans to leave. 3) This might be myopia as an American - but it really is to all of our detriment. 4) The world will mostly muddle through.

This one better count

I was remembering that 12 years ago that a weaker than present US squad put up a more competitive fight against a stronger than present Belgian squad…but to this team’s defense I could say it was largely bc Tim Howard played like the best goalie in the world on that day.

Andreas Cantor on the decision to bench Doku: ‘loko’ ‘loko’

I do miss living in Montrose. But the trade off is at the end of my street I can go to a bar packed w/ Mexican fans

I’ve seen that goal dozens of times. Quick outlet to Rice who brings it up the field and distributes it to Saka who fires a dangerous cross that, hopefully (when it’s Ars) eventually finds its way in the back or the net. I yelled out shit as Rice was making his run.

Same captains as Champions League Final from just a few weeks ago. The fact that both players are not the best player on their respective club & national teams yet are the captains of both probably says something about their character & the respect they hold among their teammates.

The Adelsons influence on political culture in the USA has been awful. We are all suffering bc of it. However there are no words in the English language that that do justice to the malevolent influence they have imparted on Isr/Pal & the entire region.

I, erm, am happy to admit I was wrong. It was an atrocious use of judgment on what was indeed a judgment call. I’m happy for Flo he won’t be unjustly suspended. I’m happy for Team USA that we’ll be at our full strength. We should never underestimate FIFA’s ability to just act w/out any scruples.

Lol. I don’t hate the player(s). I’m just trying to figure out what this means for all of us that all of our actions - and even our curiosities/thoughts as expressed by web searches - are constantly being monitored & harvested.
