It’s hard at first. Then it gets ok. Then it gets comfortable. Then it gets desirable. There is power in being alone and choosing whether to participate or not.

This might be the wildest minimum wage statistic I've ever seen.
In 1971, the federal minimum wage was $1.60 per hour. Gold averaged $40.92 per ounce.
It took 26 hours of minimum-wage labor to earn an ounce of gold.
In 2025, the federal minimum wage was $7.25. Gold averaged $3,432 per ounce.
It took 473 hours of labor to earn that same ounce.
Your hourly wage increased 4.5× in dollars.
The amount of labor required to acquire gold increased 18.5×.
Measured in gold, the federal minimum wage lost approximately 95% of its value.
Fifty-four years of nominal wage increases, and one hour of work buys a fraction of the monetary asset it once did.

My parents paid $16,000 for the house I grew up in. It’s now worth $783,000 on Zillow.
Sounds like they made a fortune, right?
In gold terms, that house cost 450 ounces in 1962. At today’s gold price, it’s worth 250 ounces.
The house actually lost value.
Politicians get away with robbing working class people blind because most people don’t realize their nominal gains aren’t real gains.
They think they’re inflation-adjusted rich, but they’re not.
I’d bet that over 95% of people don’t understand this.
Want to have your mind blown?
In 1971, the median household income was $9,030, or 220 ounces of gold.
In 2025, it was $87,460, or just 25 ounces of gold.
Your paycheck went up 10x.
Measured in gold, it fell 88%.
To earn what the median household earned in 1971, you’d need about $890,000 per year today.
That’s what fiat debasement looks like.
Another bullshit story from Nigeria.
My father mowed our property line every Saturday for thirty years. He stopped at the same spot in the brush every time, a foot short of a half-buried concrete block. Once, when I was twelve, I stepped past it to chase a ball. He grabbed my collar so hard it left a mark. "Never past the stone," he said.
He died in May. In July, the new neighbor, a polite man in his sixties, said our gravel driveway crossed three feet onto his wooded parcel. I hired a surveyor to settle it.
The surveyor swept his metal detector along the boundary pins, then stopped at the concrete block. He dug twelve inches with a trowel, wire-brushed the metal cap, and started packing up his tripod.
"I'm voiding this boundary report. Your pins are there. But this marker wasn't poured for a property line. It's an exclusion marker, placed by federal marshals in 1986."
I stopped asking who was right about the driveway. I started asking why the neighbor needed three feet moved.
The cap read *U.S. MARSHALS SERVICE — PROTECTED PARCEL. NO ENTRY. NO EXCAVATION.* Below it was a case number and, in smaller stamping, a surname I'd never heard.
The neighbor's name was Dale Pruitt. He answered his door before I knocked, as if he'd been expecting me for years.
"I wasn't trying to take your land," he said. "I was trying to take the marker off it. My father was the deputy marshal assigned to your family. He made me promise to make sure nobody ever dug there."
"My family?"
"Your father testified in 1986. Against people who don't forget." Dale's voice was gentle. "They gave him a new name and this house. He asked for one thing in return. The marshals fenced three feet around that stone and promised to keep it quiet."
"What's under it?"...

In the meantime, I will planning and recruiting for my door to door gun confiscation unit, which will hopefully be up and running by next year.
IMHO NATO instigated the war by breaking their agreement to NOT advance closer to the Russian border which was happening by trying to bring Ukraine into nato
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump FIRES BACK at the "Putin started it!" line after he calls for Zelensky's ouster
REPORTER: Did you forget Putin started the war?
TRUMP: I don't CARE anything except for one — I want that war ENDED...I want that war to end. That's ALL I care about!
Zelensky is NOT that man for peace.
Trump is. Putin might.
Zelensky REFUSES and continues attacking refineries against 47's wishes! 😡
Zelensky is asking for €70 BILLION more for 2027 and says the war will cost €155 billion. That's on top of the €90 billion EU loan agreed last December
He just wants power. Let's be real!
Was it Bill Gates (or some early tech bro) who said computers would never need more than 64k of memory? Before that it was no need for trains to go over 30mph because people would die at that speed.

Definitely no use for flying cars, absolutely zero, there's no reason anyone ever and especially not the military would ever want a car that can jump over obstacles. Utter madness wanting to be able to drive up walls. Definitely no military applications for this.
Toyota 4Runner quote to change 6 spark plugs from local shop $750. I said no. They called next day offered to do it for $525. Told them I found another shop for $325.
Depends on the skills you bring to the table. If you can build, repair, maintain something necessary then work is easy to find. Particularly if the elites of the world want it.
Thoughts and prayers
It is with the saddest heart that I pass on the following news. Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community.
The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection, and complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough, two children, John Dough, Jane Dough, Dill Dough, and one in the oven.
He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.
Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, The California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies and Captain Crunch.
The grave site was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy, and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded.
Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart "cookie", wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes.
Despite being a little flaky at times, he still, as a crusty old man, was considered a roll model for millions.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
This brought back a bad memory. A crazed girlfriend found a note my girl cousin left at my door. GF broke a big plate glass window to get in, turned over a fish tank, got a kitchen knife and came at me. I did a foot sweep and held her down until the cops arrived.
She was married to Gavin Newsome so not the sharpest pencil in the box.
🚨 UPDATE: President Trump and Marco Rubio consider FIRING US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle
TRUMP: "We're not happy."
Trump and Rubio are reportedly "extremely pissed off" at Guilfoyle's conduct — she's accused of asking a Trump donor to pay off a $100,000 credit card bill right before her confirmation hearing, promising him access to administration officials in return
It was this afternoon when 47 publicly told the press he's not happy.
If Trump is upset, do not be surprised if she's out soon.
He gives me Dan Crenshaw vibes. I’ve asked him 3 times if he supports flock cameras and mass surveillance with no response.
