Think if the positive side, the USA gotta be the best at everything. It’s time for us to one up the Soviet Union.

Maybe there were people expecting him to come out and say inflation is defeated and we can start cutting rates soon.

This season has been okay. It's not offensively bad yet, but I'm also not super entertained. This is like the opposite of the boba episodes where mando was the star. I need more mando in my mando.

Got some of that bluebell oatmeal pie icecream. Not much of an icecream person, but it was different and delicious for icecream. I could definitely see how an icecream person would be all in on it.

1694 and pretty much everything has been colonized. Time to start integrating Portugal. Surprisingly it will only take 5 years? I figured it'd be closer to 30 like Castile. Gonna integrate my other colonizer, Tidor while I'm at it. They get a mission tree colonist, so whenever I see them...

As a federal employee, I am no longer able to decipher your alien speech patterns.

I was of the thinking that SVB was a sign of the underlying weakness the banking system has with there being just so fucking much US debt out there at super low rates, but with proper management it should have been containable. I'm starting to think that this is not being properly managed. The...

I angrily googled it right after to confirm my suspicions, and they had shrunk by like 25% or so.

Went to grab my yearly cadbury eggs so I could justify another visit to the dentist, and the heft was all fucking wrong when I picked them up. They done shrank the eggs down, bad enough that they were leaving them partially hollow already. Fuck you Cadbury, I don't buy your eggs cause I want a...

Yea, I’ve been thinking of playing a game where I just chill and play super tall and do nothing but dev and fight defensive wars only til the 1700s on speed 5 and then try to explode outward, just to see how viable it is. Somewhere rich like the holland area or perhaps Italy with a custom nation.

In my chill kilwa game, Spain has turned into one of the most grotesque monsters of a nation I’ve ever seen. They got a PU over England now, and allied Portugal and ottomans again. If I were to attack them I’d be facing an army of almost 2 million soldiers in the early half of the 1600s. It’s...

Glad I was too lazy to plant my shit in late February like I normally do. Every four or five years we get a nasty frost late like this, and when it happens I gotta buy all the veggies again.

gdamn why do they run so slow.

?

Of course. What sort of coward sends someone else’s dick. That’s like peeing in a stall.

I worked with a guy that would pull up his bank account on the phone and go around showing women it and asking for a date. It eventually worked even. There’s all sorts out there.

Interrogation techniques is an interesting thing to learn, I’ve done it as part of my job, and I’m sure lawyers get plenty of education on the subject. Summed up very simplicity, being direct is an awful way to speak to someone you don’t have an established relationship with. People generally...

I eat my pimento cheese like a dip. I used to like Stacy’s pita chips with them, but apparently they think a bag is worth 11$ now, so haven’t done it in a while.

It was invented in Texas at a minimum more than a decade before, but probably a lot earlier than that.

That's the one thing I dislike most about where this series is going, they're trying incorporate everything else in to legitimize it or something. I like mando for being mando. The less bullshit interfering with that the better. I get that they're setting things up, but there was just a lot...

What I learned about Coruscant is that it has fucking terrible CGI. This shit is last decade. Get out of here. Yet it looked so good in andor.

@Foler what’s your team?

I’m not a pats fan. I’m an insufferable cowboys fan.

My family are all patriots fans, I was born pretty close to the stadium. Last decade the family super bowl gatherings have largely been insufferable.

Zesty Italian dressing packet into a 16oz sour cream is pretty legit.

The biggest difference between svb and the other American banks vs CS, is that CS has been a garbage fire for over a year. That they are having issues isn’t exactly breaking news, and I assume would fuck with the euros a lot more than the US.

I’ve been looking for a good excuse to go after them, but have been pushing into Italy to follow my mission tree, and going after them would have made the coalitions big enough that it would have attacked I think. I’m actually surprised it didn’t. I think it’s now the appropriate time to go...

I'm kinda skeptical of the FDIC's plan to contain the contagion that is this by hefting the costs onto other banks. While it might ease the public fears that would lead to wider spread bank runs in the short term, and the government is obviously very scared of a panic, I think it's contradictory...

It's just proof sanctions are hurting russia. Think of the big picture.

That coalition was gigantic, so I just chilled in europe the last almost 30 years, spending 25 or so of it integrating Castile. It completely fell apart just before castile integrated. Mostly been waging war in africa, indonesia, India and the new world. I think it's going to take me 20 minutes...

Absolution is a big deal because it raises administrative efficiency, which has a lot of really, really powerful bonuses. It's one of the most important numbers to get high in EU4. Time to tackle this monster France today. Do I feel bad for doing that to england? Not one bit. It's weird...

I think there's about 100b total in the fund that they are pulling from. After that we'd be in economic fairy land, not that I'm denying we might end up there.

Went to Arby's today. Reuben sandwich was alright. Was going for the ribeye sammie but they were out of so many things, reuben was like my 6th choice. Gdamn the curly fries were extra crispy and just fucking amazing. Apparently 7-11 is doing 3.14$ whole pizzas tomorrow to celebrate pi day. The...

It's capped at 25Billion, so there's gonna be a lot of banks that go home sad after trying.

Okay, I honestly never expected people to be talking about how great the interest on their CDs is in this thread.

Nobody in line and got my money no problem. Better rush to the banks while all the normies are sleeping on this. They did have a security guard, which they’ve never had before.

Headed to the bank to withdraw all my cash. Planned to do this today for like two months, so feels like a weird coincidence.

This handyman saito episode. I didn't expect an animation flex like this. Bravo series, that was a fucking fun episode.

Guess we’ll just need a transitory decade of inflation so banks can prepare.

Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that people in the know will have a special hotline to get their money out, so once lawsuits come to shut this down they can screw over everyone else.
