We're already seeing Trump prep for a Stimmy cycle cloaking it as a "Tariff Refund". Question being what excuse they will use to pump money after that, as I don't know of any other real levers they can pull. QE Forever? Big interest drop? That would require a Fed that didn't want to...

Interesting analysis of the AI Capital Investment Circle Jerk... The actual Substack article if you want to go straight to the real deal. https://substack.com/inbox/post/179453867

My company is having it's worst single day performance in over a year and a half today. Someone has most definitely stuck their dick in the mashed potatoes.. I'm thinking NVDA didn't outperform ENOUGH to keep that particular hype train rolling full steam and the result is Bears stepping...

A number of the properties outside town I've been looking at fall in the line of "10-30 acres, existing double wide on property that needs work" type scenarios. Or a few with a pre-existing small Barndominuim. Perfect scenario would be we buy one of those, I spend a some time fixing up the...

All those Ancient inventions? They were really invented by the Unas and the Ancients STOLE THEM ALL, then introduced Gou'ald to colonize the Unas to keep them down.

The offers I have gotten on the house so far are all sight unseen specifically saying they don't care about the house. Although they're also all what I assume to be low balls, they're still something like 3.5-4x what I paid for the house in 2001. I'm leaning towards the less expensive fix...

Anybody else think something like this might be why the market didn't go nuts on the NVDA double beat? I'm trying to figure out if it really matters.

I have a wife who has been wanting something like this... hurm.... And they don't look all that hideously expensive to boot. We have a 15x30 enclosed patio room on the back side of our house that would give a good place for this I think. Of course, then we have the problem I actually came...

In the video up there they do specifically call out to it being an "accessible" Stargate story/world for people unfamiliar with the franchise and possibly even not big SciFi people. The more I think about this the more this indicates to me it will need to be an Earth based show to be more...

I'll admit to still thinking this is awfully bubbly. Although the tempering to that thought is that unlike the dotcom era these companies do at least have real revenue streams and cash flows. And my stock angst today has almost nothing to do with NVDA and more to do with other investments I'm...

I just wonder how much NVDA earnings are going to swing every other stock that's releasing earnings after them. It feels AWFULLY .com bubbly to me right now, and I say that as someone who had stock options at the company I was with at the time go to essentially zero worth during the dotcom...

Yeah, that seems to be my take on it too, that it will be a "new chapter" of an SG-1 style story based on Earth. When I told @Mrs. Haus about this her first question was "But who will be the bad guys since they destroyed the Gou'ald, Replicators, and Ori?" But I figure they'll come up with...

I'll start off with a rating of "Tentative optimistic" since they have Wright and Malozzi involved. Calling it a "unique chapter" in the same universe, I wonder if they're going to tell the pre-SG1 universe of Goa'uld v. Ancient, etc....

I saw this ad and had to rewatch it a couple times as I SWORE it had to be some kind of satire, but nope... real ad... real law firm... Best line : Call your favorite attorney now! He'd call you, but HE DOESN'T HAVE YOUR NUMBER!

Closest I can find right this second.. (but now it will bug me until my 'tism finds it...) is... Re-racked to start with a baseline of the end of the 2008 crash (in may 2009). Seems a very modest growth in household income compared to rent overtaking it and really never looking back except a...

The names of the data sets are... Real Median Household Income in the United States, 2024 C-CPI-U Dollars, Not Seasonally Adjusted (MEHOINUSA672N) Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: Rent of Primary Residence in U.S. City Average, Index 1982-1984=100, Not Seasonally Adjusted...

My chart shows it as percentage increase, his shows it on three different axes/scales which allows it to line up the trends in a different way : FRED only goes back to the early 80's for it's median household income trend. This chart shows the percentage change, not the absolute number changes...

I'm more worried that since his wife just got those new up tops she might figure "D cups are for winners!" and dump him to have her new BFF TayTay write a horrible song about him for her next album.

It's not. But the degree to which rent is outpacing median household income tells the better story IMHO... (Can't believe I'm reusing variants of this FRED chat twice in one day) https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1NVkw In roughly the last quarter century rent prices have gone up 140%...

So... had a medical procedure today which involved being fully sedated. Which always screws up my sleeping schedule (which is usually like a damn well build clock). So I find myself up essentially all night (managed to sleep from around 2-3:15) And this floats across my X feed.

Get your ass ready for proper Wintertime Soup!

I little something for my Cybersecurity frens out there...

https://www.thestranger.com/blogs/2013/03/08/16197936/at-some-point-in-life-everyone-has-gambled-on-a-fart-and-lost I'm just waiting to see how far the fall from grace is for Mahomes if the chiefs don't make the playoffs.

NGL, I'm pleasantly surprised with the Stars so far this season... Unrelated :

The worst is seeing the types of people who buy these solely for "big ass truck!"... You see them fretting over a scratch and refusing to even drive over a curb and can only think to yourself... "Damn Pavement Princess"

OK... Today I had to have oral surgery. It was actually step 2 of getting a dental implant for a long damaged molar. First step was a bone graft to build something to anchor a post, and today was the post. The rustling happened before the procedure. Nurse one : Starts looking for where to...

Bitcoin Per Se doesn't need to be money. But in general many people believe (and I am one of them) that some form of currency which is outside the ability of any government to manipulate/debase it is needed. Also a non-governmental controlled money would give many people more financial...

Jimmy Rustling update... Drain replacement to fix the issue will cost around 150% what I had budgeted for the initial paining project. Jimmies officially re-rustled.

Cheap work trucks should hit the used car market around when Trump gets to 25-30m aggressively deported mark.

He lost his mom earlier this year as well, so I think there's a whole stack of things at play here. Not to mention realizing he made the most notable defensive play of the year for the Cowboys, but somehow that still didn't get him promoted to a better team. (He was the one who ran in that...

So I've been starting to worry we're really looking into the abyss of a serious and painful correction/recession, but then.... Looks like WAGMI
