The money that was delivered to banks to prop up the banking system in 2009 was all paid back, so liquidity rose, but then dropped again. The 2020 sti...

But social security got a bump up recently didn't it?

It's the entitlement thing, yes.

Great post. I agree with all your points. I believe the success of women's rights and the movement of women into central roles in society has put stre...

It's not two entities. It's two different vocalizations of the Tetragrammaton.

I agree. Why do you think the availability of prostitution does not meet the needs of incels?

There are two meanings of "incel.". One is a derogatory term for a guy who can't get laid. The other is a self-applied term for guys who think there's...

We don't have temple prostitutes. Prostitution is dishonorable in our world (for the most part). This makes that path problematic for some. Maybe, but...

I think marriage is more about identifying patriarchal lineage. The temple prostitutes have a civilizing effect on the population, according to the ep...

I think this needs to be in Wikipedia. After all, life is precious.

Discourse with AI is death.

Or maybe Trump as candidate and DeSantis as vice president. I'm so proud.

Will relations between Europe/US and Russia ever be normalized while Putin is in control?

You need a metaphorical GPS.

This is an interesting paper about how banks create liquidity.

I don't think so. I think it's from Seinfeld.

When I was studying Spanish, the r's weren't hard for me. I'm a native English speaker, but I have a natural tendency to roll r's. So when I was a chi...

Except the KBG is after you. You forgot about that.

What is fact smashing?

Trains are freaking awesome. I've never been on one, but they look like you might be Cary Grant running from the KBG. Extra sharp.

I put peanuts out for crows. It's my favorite bird.

Maybe you could vacation in the mountains and get it back. Upper NY is magic.

I wonder what emotions you have about that summer.
