Finding value amid volatility.

Worst-case Ontario.

I put some fun stuff out on Reddit too fyi. Still figuring all this out.

Twitter was easier, but the Stasi there don’t like me. I saw they just banned that Wittgenstein account for literally nothing. That was a good account. I think maybe some woke Twitter employees might be on a bit of a vendetta there. I can’t prove it, but I can’t prove Twitter throttled me either.

SO HAWKISH!!

The Fed has your back.

Esther George was far from the worst, but 40 years of service(?) at the Kansas City Fed in April?? These unelected, unaccountable, apparatchik arsonist fire-marshals should have no influence over our lives.

Just start using a private lender!

So I see this…

The US State Department has raised deep concerns about reports of a planned Turkish military offensive in northern Syria, saying they worry about the civilian population, and that more fighting would put the US troops there at risk.

…and the first thing I think is ‘why are US troops in northern Syria?’
