I’m done pretending this shit is normal.
No city should have a "fentanyl alley". I’ll clear it all up by the end of 2027.

The only thing one can really tell from Anthropic's S-1 is that no one really knows (including Anthropic) what the true cost of running AI is yet.
Yeah why would a sovereign nation ever need to produce any real things when it can rely on communist slave labor?
Physical work is for chumps and losers...
The bipartisan obsession with creating factory jobs is harmful to both the US worker and the US economy, says @scottlincicome (via @opinion) bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
I believe Chris is Mormon and lives in Utah.
This advice probably is quite good for that audience.
For others, probably not so good
Attention Young Men:
I am surrounded by 20 year old girls in my life that are smart, capable, hard working and cute. Nobody is dating them. Not sure what the deal is, but I don’t get it.
Step 1: Stop playing video games
Step 2: Head to great clips and get that lettuce cleaned up
Step 3: Hit a shower (when dating hygiene is critical)
Step 4: Go clean your car
Step 5: Sign up for a yoga class
Step 6: Go to the yoga class
Step 7: Ask a cute for her phone number at yoga class (yes you can meet girls IRL and not just on the apps - 10/10 the Dirt Dog highly recommends)
Step 8: Follow up within 2 days with a phone call and ask them out for this coming weekend Friday or Saturday night.
Step 9: IMPORTANT - come up with a good game plane for date night. Get a dinner reservation, get an activity planned. Let them know in advance what you are doing so they can dress appropriately. I know you are gunna roll off the couch and head to date night, but they are not. They are going to stress about what to wear and call at least 6 different people on FaceTime to ask their opinion.
Step 10: I highly recommend you bring flowers to the door step. I’m not covering that you go to the doorstep, because if you don’t do that you have no hope here. Women want men to date them. You don’t need to break the bank on flowers. Head to Trader Joe’s. Grab 2 different kinds of flowers. If you don’t know what matches find the closest looking lady to your mom at TJ’s and ask her. Wrap the 2 flowers into 1 bouquet with paper. Bonus Points you can cut open a TJ bag and use that as the paper.
Step 11: Be a gentleman on the date. She isn’t there to hear your life story. Ask her about her. For every 1 question you answer, ask her 3. Open Doors, pay for the meal, be polite.
Provided you follow most of this guideline you are highly likely to get yourself an opportunity for date number 2.
Keep going until you find someone that you can’t imagine not being around all the time. That’s when you have found a good one for you.
My life is complete with my wife as my companion. I wish you the same fortune in life. Happy Hunting.

More charts in State of Markets II: a16z.news/p/state-of-markets…
Real personal income from the private sector is basically flatlined.
This isn’t the foundation of a strong economy.
Has only slowed down more this year.
The Fed say this labor market remains robust?
Zero job growth YOY?
They're blinder than a bad baseball umpire.
Anyone who kills their own children should receive the death penalty
Crazy or not
Murdering your own children is pure evil
Our society is declining at an appalling rate
The only employment sectors with gains in last year were healthcare (gov spending) and construction (data centers).
This is not a broad healthy job market

this is the kind of stuff i wish trump would do 20X more of.
the US economy has become moribund beneath regulation and monopoly/oligopoly around SO many core industries.
free commerce and watch the economy soar. this sort of crap is costing us 200bp of GDP growth a year.
that extra 2% annually results in an economy 150% the size over 50 years. this is the way forward.

Another really amazing pandemic clip.
October, 2021. CNN sends a reporter to Miami to investigate a school that is considered "anti-vax."
While there the reporter runs into a parent who says that he is not going to have his children get the Covid vaccine.
While being harassed by the CNN lackey, the parent says that fully vaccinated people are still dying from Covid and that Fauci is not the best scientist in the world. The CNN clown scoffs at him and tells him he is wrong.
This exact same week the former head of the CDC Robert Redfield said that more than 40% of people who died from Covid over the past 6-8 weeks in Maryland were fully vaccinated. Soon after, the CEO of Pfizer said publicly that two doses of the vaccine offered almost no protection at all against Covid.
The parent was right. The arrogant CNN reporter was wrong.
If inflation were transitory this is exactly what you would expect the chart to look like.
Or maybe it is.

The core CPI is running at the grand total of a +1.6% annual rate over the three months to July. The comparable this time last year was +2.7%. Inflation did show up last month in computers (thanks Apple!), airfares, toys, appliances, and used cars. But it didn’t show up anywhere else. The inflation-phobes will have to change their story at some point, and the three Fed dissenters will be pivoting before long.
What is a woman???
These discussions would be comedy gold
After two former first round NBA draft picks declared for @wnba draft, the WNBA’s commissioner says the league will be meeting to review what a woman is for purposes of league eligibility. These meetings need to be streamed live. That’s must see TV. espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/495…
There has been essentially zero job growth and zero real personal income Ex transfer payments in the last year.
So who is missing the economic forest for the trees??
