From Housingwire:
Pace of home-price appreciation falls for the second month in a row
Home-price appreciation continues to grow in 2025 and another report confirms that.
The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Index for March rose 3.37% year over year. That pace is a decrease from a 3.9% annual gain in February and 4.1% in January. Buyers and sellers in March were benefiting from falling interest rates and rapidly rising inventory.
While inventory continues to show large year-over-year gains, President Donald Trump’s tariff announcement in April pushed mortgage rates back up to 7%, which has the potential to negatively impact sales.
“It is likely that home prices will not grow as fast this year as they have over the past couple of years,” said Bright MLS Chief Economist Lisa Sturtevant in a statement. “More inventory has been coming onto the market, which gives buyers more leverage and room for negotiation.”
Home prices in major cities continue to drive the national increase in the index. The 10-city composite index is up by 4.76% annually and the 20-city index is up 4.07%. Those are both monthly gains of more than 1%.
Three of the four cities with the highest annual gain are in the Midwest, with Chicago (6.5%), Cleveland (5.9%) and Detroit (5.77%) leading the way. New York posted the largest year-over-year increase in home prices by far at 7.96%.
Florida remains the state with the most sluggish price growth. Miami has posted two consecutive month-over-month drops but is up 1.78% annually. Tampa, which is still recovering from Hurricane Milton in October, has also dropped two months in a row and is down by 2.16% compared to last year.

As for the French and Macron. The relationship between Macron and his now wife , even raised eyebrows in France at the time. He was 15, and she 25. Her oldest daughter at the time and Macron were classmates.
Tariff refunds anyone? Hearing that it’s the topic du jour. Paid back … with interest.

A panel of federal judges on Wednesday blocked President Trump from imposing some of his steepest tariffs on China and other U.S. trading partners, finding that federal law did not grant him “unbounded authority” to tax imports from nearly every country around the world.
The ruling, by the U.S. Court of International Trade, delivered an early yet significant setback to Mr. Trump, undercutting his primary leverage as he looks to pressure other nations into striking trade deals more beneficial to the United States.
Pretty sure no other nation is going to bother to negotiate now.
Well mabye she can talk some of her princess friends into becoming electricians and plumbers.

In the United States, more women than men enroll in and graduate from college. In fall 2022, about 8.3 million women were undergraduate college students, compared to 6.1 million men. Women also tend to have higher graduation rates than men.
Raised eyebrows.

Dark: My typo, Macron was 15 , and his now wife was 40 at the time their relationship started. Her oldest child was the same age.
Fast forward to the present, and Macron s wife looks like she is anorexic. There were rumors at one point, that Macron is actually gay, and the marriage is a front.
At least he wasn’t texting. 😂

Harvard was paying this fraudster 1 million a year for meaningless fabricated work on social sciences. This is possible when they were siphoning off 70% of the money from their scientific grants that were supposed to go to actual research.
that’s all fine and well, just don’t complain when the plumber hands you a bill for $800 for 15 minutes of work that you couldn’t figure out how to do with your fancy degree.
Article in Axios this morning about AI, replacing entry level college grad jobs. Just noting the article, nothing more.
BRT: Maybe going forward, there won’t be all that much need for plumbers and electricians etc, because AI will replace a lot of white collar jobs, and no one will have jobs or money to pay the plumbers and electricians etc. It is all connected.
I am so disappointed by the adults running this country. Get your chit together. At this point, let Trump try to do something with the tariffs. Instead, you f/ing babies block him and now create a total mess. What a f/ing joke. This is supposed to be prime investing time before AI takes over. This is your last f’ing chance to move up through investment before the labor market is destroyed. Yet, it’s being destroyed at the moment with instability.
If you hate Trump, just let him do his thing….let him f’ing try. It’s only 3 more years. We are obviously getting f/ed with trade deals and it’s not sustainable. Some manufacturing has to come home. China needs to be checked. So let’s see what he can do, but nope,f’ing babies won’t let the status quo change.
I don’t see any “adults”.
9:21 – Yep, the market does not like uncertainty. Given how litigious Trump is, he should have known better that this was coming. Why is it a surprise?
If he had strategic skills, he would be playing 4D chess instead of whatever dimension this is.
He’s playing dictator. But once his stupid antics hit Americans wallets….
Initial euphoria in the markets will fade as this tariff ruling plays out in the courts over the next 2 months or so. Other countries in the meantime will slow down or stop any efforts to negotiate new trade deals with the U. S. This may all bring even more uncertainty to the markets going forward. Just an observation.
Agreed. But the strategy is flawed from the start. We don’t have cheap labor and what little we did is in fear of being deported. Would be nice if the Patriot King tried following the laws instead of exploiting them for a change.
Does this mean TACO is over?
Guess I need to get my money out of TACO trader cause that strategy is over.
Too bad my last name wasn’t Pelosi.
Too bad I didn’t have Pegasus on the right phones.
Too bad I wasn’t in the chat group
Oh well.
Lib: We have plenty of cheap labor, they did not all come during the 4 years of Biden. Even if Trump was able to deport every illegal migrant that entered under Biden s presidency, I think we would still have enough at least cheaper labor. We also have a lot of lazy white boys sitting on their asses every day doing nothing. Some of them spending their entire adult lives unemployed. I know a couple of them. And, they pack an attitude too! Their lazy asses should be put to work.
I agree. But until a party cares more about efficiency and efficacy, than personal enrichment, those lazy white men aren’t getting off the couch. Trump, in theory, has quite a few right ideas, but not for the right reasons. For Trump, it’s all a show and he does not give two shits about anyone but himself. It continues to be a show. Gotta keep his billions in meme coins and DJT shares high so he will minimally triple his net worth. I get it. He is greedy, like most. He is no different than that lazy white guy who is happier living on the dole than working.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if our leaders focused on eliminating waste? Oh the tax savings would be tremendous. And they could, without any interference from the courts. But getting rich through the corporate pay for favor gravy train is so much better. Which is why I always have said it’s only going to get worse if campaign finance and the lobbies continue as is.
I honestly don’t know how people do not work….like what is your purpose? That’s depressing. Sit around and wait for handouts. I will never do that unless I am physically unable to. Even then, I would still feel like a pos for living off other’s labor.
Could you imagine living your whole life as a taker, and never giving back? That goes for the rich too, not just the people on handouts, but the rich that were born into it, and never did a damn thing in their entire life….just taking and never giving back.
John Lennon style…..Imagine if all the people.
Imagine if people were honest and did the right thing. Imagine if everyone worked hard. You would barely have a tax bill. Everyone would be a net positive. You wouldn’t even have to pay for police. Products would be cheap.
It’s all a dream. For every 10 guys busting their ass, you have a sucker who destroys it all for the 10 guys busting their ass. We are our own worst enemy. I don’t make the rules.
Lib: Both parties care only about personal enrichment. Of course I don’t disagree that Trump has taken it to new unseen levels. Trump is however a reaction to all the dysfunction in our political system over the decades. Whatever good ideas Trump has, will never be recognized by the Democrats, and Trump can’t execute his ideas in any coherent function. I don’t know how the Democrats can be outraged over reasonable work requirements for able bodied people in order to be eligible to obtain Medicaid benefits. I would think all would be on board for that, but not the case. Going forward it won’t be sustainable. I believe 43 percent of California s population is on Medicaid.
Op
Amazing that we have poor neighborhoods living off handouts filled with trash and destruction. Want to receive handouts to survive? How about you demonstrate evidence of helping your neighborhood stay clean. How about your apartment must be inspected for being clean before you receive your monthly check. Do something to earn it.
How about we tie handouts to their child’s performance in school? God forbid we hold them accountable for their kids. Can’t do that, blame teachers instead.
I mean, do Democrats not see what they have created? Neighborhoods that look like a war zone because the adults living there simply do nothing….they can’t even put garbage where it belongs.
We make too many excuses for people. It’s not too much to ask to take care of your kids and your neighborhood. Yet, here we are.
We also have a lot of lazy white boys sitting on their asses every day doing nothing.

Why don’t you mock the people driving up your taxes because they have done nothing with their lives, but take. If they contributed to taxes instead of taking, we would all be better off. Do you know how much I have paid in taxes in my life already?

The tarrifs on Chinese made electric cars are not coming off anytime soon. Trump has the power given to him by congress to implement tariffs, he just cannot do his back of a McDonald’s napkin calculations, and shoot from the hip at the podium with magical tariff percentages and call it some kind of emergency under that IEEPA law that was challenged in court. The speed of any new tariff rollout will be months rather than immediately as he did with the IEEPA law.
For example they must follow the red tape procedures as outlined in the various laws. Commerce Secretary has to write a report and recommend them, section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, and sections 301 and 338 of the Trade Act of 1930.

The phrase “your ass handed to you” is a vulgar slang expression meaning to suffer a devastating defeat.
In essence, it signifies a complete and humiliating loss, often in a contest, competition, or confrontation.
Think of it as someone being so thoroughly beaten that they might as well have their rear end figuratively detached and handed to them as a symbol of their utter failure.
Here’s a breakdown:
Devastating defeat: It’s not just a loss, but a crushing one.
Humiliation: The phrase implies that the defeat was not only decisive but also embarrassing or shameful.
Informal and vulgar: This is a very informal expression, considered vulgar and not suitable for polite conversation.
Examples of Usage:
“The team got their asses handed to them in the final game.” (meaning: the team lost badly in the final game).
“He tried to argue with the judge and got his ass handed to him.” (meaning: he lost the argument with the judge decisively).
“Don’t go challenging him, he’ll hand your ass to you.” (meaning: don’t challenge him, he’s likely to beat you).

Great geo political analysis with the main actors being Trump, Xi Jinping and Apple, China and India.
SAN FRANCISCO/NEW YORK/BENGALURU, May 29 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s trade war has cost companies more than $34 billion in lost sales and higher costs, according to a Reuters analysis of corporate disclosures, a toll that is expected to rise as ongoing uncertainty over tariffs paralyzes decision making at some of the world’s largest companies.
Across the United States, Asia and Europe, companies including Apple (AAPL.O), opens new tab, Ford (F.N), opens new tab, Porsche and Sony (6758.T), opens new tab have pulled or slashed their profit forecasts, and an overwhelming majority say the erratic nature of Trump’s trade policies has made it impossible to accurately estimate costs. Reuters reviewed company statements, regulatory filings, conference and media call transcripts to pull together for the first time a snapshot of the tariff cost so far for global businesses.
Now do the math on the tariff revenues. Try not to laugh to hard when you see the measly totals. It’s all for show.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly demanding the FBI compile a list of everyone who uses the #TACO hashtag referencing “Trump Always Chickens Out.”
Democrats at a crossroads
It is not a great time to be a Democratic politician in the United States. The party is out of power. Elected officials cannot agree on a course of action to counter Trump’s agenda. No clear leader has emerged to unify the unwieldy coalition. Various ideological and generational factions are warring against each other and nobody seems to be winning.
“I understand that they don’t have the power to, like, change like things drastically, but they do have the power to slow down like things even a little bit,” said rally attendee Juan Dominguez, 26. “It honestly feels like I’m not seeing any of that.”
The anger extends beyond the rally-goers.
Fifty-two percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents said their party’s leadership is moving in the wrong direction, according to a CNN/SSRS poll conducted in mid-March, as opposed to 48% who said it is moving in the right direction.
That same survey suggested a desire for strong opposition: 57% wanted Democrats in Congress to try and stop the Republican party’s agenda. It’s a complete reversal of a poll in 2017, the year after Trump first won the presidency, that suggested 74% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents wanted leaders to work with Republicans following a divisive election.
“What they’re pressing for is not just Democratic leaders to lash out because that’s going to make their followers feel good,” said former Pennsylvania congressman Conor Lamb, who held a town hall-style event in Pittsburgh last week.
Though Lamb said he is not currently running for office, he felt a hunger within the Democratic base.
“I think they feel like the survival of the system we have all counted on is itself on the line, and they want us to act with that level of urgency,” Lamb told the BBC. “I think it’s important for us not to forget just to be advocates for things that are specific and concrete, and really affecting people.”
Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez’s tour is just one attempt to solve that. It stops in conservative-dominated areas and remains laser-focused on the economy, citing cost of living grievances that propelled Trump to a second term, while framing him and his billionaire supporters like Musk as the culprits.

Eight years ago, when Donald Trump addressed the nation for the first time as president, he did so as the revolutionary leader of a massive populist movement. The government he had just been tasked with leading, he argued in his inaugural address, was corrupt, its economic system rigged. The people surrounding him on stage—the country’s political and business elite—had spent decades lining their pockets and growing more powerful as much of the country went to hell. America’s cities, in his telling, had become wastelands, riven by gang violence, drug abuse, and unemployment—problems that could be traced back to the free-trade deals and lax immigration policies pushed by members of both parties.
“Today we are not transferring power not from one administration to another, or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from Washington, D.C., and giving it back to you, the people,” Trump said, minutes after becoming the forty-fifth president. “This American carnage stops right here and stops right now.”
Ka$h patel will oblige
For most presidents, the inaugural address is an opportunity to mark their transition from the leader of a party to the head of a nation. The fractious rhetoric of campaigning is set aside in favor of paeans to unity, bipartisanship, and a brighter tomorrow. Having just won an election practically everyone thought he would lose by running as a different kind of candidate, Trump delivered a different kind of inaugural address. Trump was president, but he was still the head of a movement that was fundamentally at odds with most of the nation’s elite. His speech was not just dystopian, it was a declaration of war against the government he was now tasked with leading.
In one sense, this was nothing new for Trump, who had won the Republican nomination and then the presidency in 2016 by seeing off two dynastic members of the political establishment—he humiliated Jeb Bush in the Republican primary before upsetting Hillary Clinton in the general election. For the last decade, Trump has been telling voters that they had been abandoned by a political establishment he would systematically destroy.
In 2016, he really did run a populist campaign, when he argued that the nation’s leaders were screwing over the country everywhere, spending billions on alliances and wars abroad while they abandoned its workers at home via free-trade agreements that moved factories overseas and left entire cities decimated. Casting himself as a different breed of Republican, he broke from long-standing orthodoxy not just on trade. He also broke away from opposition to entitlement programs, a stance that had defined the Republican Party for nearly a century: His promise to protect Social Security and Medicare—both signature Democratic programs—was crucial to his success.
Trump’s brand of populism has always been intertwined with the extreme, xenophobic immigration policy that has been the centerpiece of his political project from its inception. In 2016, his campaign’s central promise was the construction of 2,000-mile wall on the country’s southern border. It was a costly, stupid idea—hundreds of miles of fencing already existed and most undocumented immigrants arrive through legal points of entry, like airports—but a potent metaphor for his larger project, which was built around the return of protectionism and isolationism. By closing off the country, he would free up billions of dollars that were being spent on foreigners or in foreign wars, rebuild the country’s manufacturing sector, and lift up its struggling workers. At the same time, he would crack down on rapacious drug companies, protect clean air and water, and spend a trillion dollars rebuilding the nation’s crumbling infrastructure. Trump took over the Republican Party by promising to reorient it completely away from the business and elite interests that had dominated for decades and toward the workers he said had been abandoned by the leaders of both parties.
One of the most compelling explanations, widely accepted on both the left and right, for Trump’s improbable return to power four years later is that Democrats, the mainstream media, and other “establishment” figures—eager to turn the page on the Trump era—overlooked the continued appeal of Trump’s populism. When Trump ran in 2020, his share of the working class held steady, even though he lost. In the 2024 election, it not only spiked again, but it did so thanks to huge gains made with Black and Latino voters—groups long seen as out of reach for any Republican, let alone one with Trump’s long history of racism.
As he declared victory early on the morning of November 6, Trump argued that he was now leading a multiracial working-class movement. “This campaign has been so historic in so many ways. We’ve built the biggest, the broadest, the most unified coalition,” Trump said, before listing a host of racial and demographic groups who had backed his candidacy. “We had everybody and it was beautiful,” he concluded. “It was a historic realignment….”
“The difference, of course, is that President Trump does everything out in the open. He’s not trying to hide anything. There’s no shell companies or fake LLCs or fake family businesses. He’s putting it out there so everybody can evaluate for themselves,” Johnson said Sunday.
Scott Jennings, a CNN analyst who frequently defends the White House, offered a similar defense of Trump pardoning political allies, saying Thursday, “It’s being done out in the open. It’s being done in the light of day.”
It’s a variation of the frequent White House boast that Trump, by virtue of his frequent interactions with reporters, is the most transparent president in history, and especially so compared to the reclusive Biden.
According to Dario Amodei. CEO of Anthropic one of the biggest creators of AI intelligence, AI will wipe out thousands of white collar jobs, particularly entry level jobs. He goes on to say unemployment could spike to 10 to 20 percent. He goes on to say, that AI will be an issue in the 2028 presidential election. He goes on to state that corporate leaders are afraid, to admit it, and government officials don’t understand it. People in general just don’t believe it. He closes by saying he is issuing this warning to try and save America. The article appears in Axios for those who want to read it.

This is who Trump’s flying monkeys support with their “PACs.”
Presidential candidate Karol Nawrocki is finding it’s politically dangerous to get tangled up in Poland’s red-hot property market.
Nawrocki, backed by the nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party, is under fire over allegations that he didn’t come clean about how many apartments he owns, and that he may have acquired one in return for taking care of a disabled pensioner — who was later found to be living in a retirement home.
After days of negative coverage, Nawrocki held a news conference Wednesday where he insisted he had bought the apartment legally but that he and his wife would donate it to charity. However, his campaign, which had been gaining momentum in recent weeks, is now in serious disarray.

He was sentenced to four years in prison, exceeding federal sentencing guidelines. The judge, Stephen C. Robinson, asserted that Mr. Kerik had used the aftermath of 9/11 for personal gain and later made “a conscious decision to essentially lie to the President of the United States to get a cabinet position.”

Trump’s brand of populism has always been intertwined with the extreme, xenophobic immigration policy that has been the centerpiece of his political project from its inception. In 2016, his campaign’s central promise was the construction of 2,000-mile wall on the country’s southern border. It was a costly, stupid idea—hundreds of miles of fencing already existed and most undocumented immigrants arrive through legal points of entry, like airports—but a potent metaphor for his larger project, which was built around the return of protectionism and isolationism. By closing off the country, he would free up billions of dollars that were being spent on foreigners or in foreign wars, rebuild the country’s manufacturing sector, and lift up its struggling workers. At the same time, he would crack down on rapacious drug companies, protect clean air and water, and spend a trillion dollars rebuilding the nation’s crumbling infrastructure. Trump took over the Republican Party by promising to reorient it completely away from the business and elite interests that had dominated for decades and toward the workers he said had been abandoned by the leaders of both parties.
One of the most compelling explanations, widely accepted on both the left and right, for Trump’s improbable return to power four years later is that Democrats, the mainstream media, and other “establishment” figures—eager to turn the page on the Trump era—overlooked the continued appeal of Trump’s populism. When Trump ran in 2020, his share of the working class held steady, even though he lost. In the 2024 election, it not only spiked again, but it did so thanks to huge gains made with Black and Latino voters—groups long seen as out of reach for any Republican, let alone one with Trump’s long history of racism.
As he declared victory early on the morning of November 6, Trump argued that he was now leading a multiracial working-class movement. “This campaign has been so historic in so many ways. We’ve built the biggest, the broadest, the most unified coalition,” Trump said, before listing a host of racial and demographic groups who had backed his candidacy. “We had everybody and it was beautiful,” he concluded. “It was a historic realignment….”

Just a few years ago, almost no one drove electric vehicles up here. In this remote region north of the Arctic Circle — where reindeer outnumber people, avalanches can bury roads in winter and sunlight disappears for weeks — “range anxiety” takes on a new meaning.
Today, however, nearly all new car sales in Norway are electric. That’s true even in Finnmark, the northernmost region in Europe’s northernmost country.
Norway has worked to ensure that drivers are never far from a charging point. Most people charge their EVs at home, and a legal “right to charge” guarantees access for apartment dwellers. The country also has an extensive charging network — powered almost entirely by renewables — with 9,771 fast chargers in 1,684 locations, according to Lars Lund Godbolt, who maintains the government’s database.
Godbolt said the longest distance between two fast-charging stations in Finnmark is about 80 miles, and officials say Norway easily bests the European Union target of 60 km (37 miles) between fast chargers on major roads.
I’ve had to use it. I was minding my own business at a stoplight when some kid with only $6000 worth of coverage plowed into my car totalling it.
My insurance paid…minus my deductible. They then sued him and his family for the damages and got my deductible refunded too.

“In 2019, New Jersey had the lowest uninsured rate in the country at just 3.1%, but now the percentage is much higher at 14.1%, though still lower than the national average of 15.4%, La Spisa added.”

As I said , that’s why I don’t engage with you. You are argumentative, just to be argumentative. Not a good look.

8:56 – My relatively new minivan got t-boned by a 19yo when I was making a turn. I didn’t see him at all.. and I think his brakes failed in the 35 mph zone that he was probably going at 60+.
The problem is I could prove none of it, and the cops deemed it my fault. I tried getting any camera footage and there was none. Did you know that intersection cameras – if they exist, belong to DOT and not the local county? The lawyer said it’s not worth it going after the kid because it will be difficult to prove he was at fault (or even partially at fault).
Due to some technical reason, my 2022 honda odyssey (paid in full) did not have collisson. I had it fixed out of pocket at a nearby shop for $13K – it was assumed totalled by other shops.
Luckily, my 10yo kid and wife who were with me all got out unscathed. The car took all the brunt and the airbags deployed.
This is the first time I’m even able to talk about this without getting raged or emotional about this incident.
By the way this happened in Feb… but still hits a nerve.
The honda is as good as new now. The small scratch on the side is also gone thanks to a brand new sliding door. But I feel there is more road noise now.. and that’s one thing I hate about it. I’m considering a new car.. maybe an X7 – I hear it’s the quietest. But my wife hates all brands that give the appearance of “show off”… so it will be tough convincing her – even though she is the primary driver of the minivan. She loves it, as she drives a lot of (college) kids around as part of her work.
There are other states that rival Florida for having a high rate of uninsured drivers on their roads. The national average for uninsured drivers is 13%, and Florida exceeds that, coming in at 26.7%. While Florida has the highest rate, the following states are seeing alarmingly high rates of uninsured drivers:
Mississippi: 23.7%
New Mexico: 20.8%
Michigan: 20.3%
Tennessee: 20%
Alabama: 18.4%
Regardless of the exact number, it’s the uninsured that usually drive like morons.

In 2009, Mr. Kerik pleaded guilty to eight felonies, including two counts of tax fraud and lying to White House officials while being considered to lead the Department of Homeland Security.
He was sentenced to four years in prison, exceeding federal sentencing guidelines. The judge, Stephen C. Robinson, asserted that Mr. Kerik had used the aftermath of 9/11 for personal gain and later made “a conscious decision to essentially lie to the President of the United States to get a cabinet position.”
President Donald Trump pardoned him in 2020.

3b,
I don’t know that you can blame recessions solely on the POTUS, though, I do think their economic policies can contribute to one. I believe there is an economic cycle, from recession to prosperous periods and back that will occur regardless. As for the the AI view. I don’t doubt a lot of white collar SME type jobs are going to be eliminated. But like with automated cars, it’s much further away than estimated. Certainly the call center is over.

If AI does start to eliminate white collar jobs, get ready to see housing take a bat to the head. Not saying it’s going to happen, govt will try to step in, but it’s a risk with owning now.
Truth is, based on what I see, this entire move up in housing from 70s on is from the boomer effect. Demographics went to work on housing throughout their life. When they were young, their parents had to start getting bigger houses to make up for all the kids…this started the 70s move. Then they all started buying houses of their own in the 80s. Then 2000s they all started buying move up houses and second homes (vacation properties). They then crashed the market with over speculation. Then, in 2020’s they started buying again, competing with millennials that wanted to now buy. In fact, they were providing the ammo for their millennial kids to buy….giving them cash to compete.
That’s all I have ever seen with housing….this is how I was able to make my calls 10 years out. It is what it is.

Stable,
I am calling for a risk I see…..nothing more, nothing less. Is it guaranteed, no….but it is a major risk forming that you have to acknowledge as an individual and homeowner.
We are at a time of major change. I don’t even know if capitalism will survive AI or what will evolve from it. All I know is that major change is upon us….like the fasting most explosive change in human history.
I think housing is already slowing bigly.
Trump will cost everybody bigly. Stay tuned.
Lib: I meant Trunmp’s economic policies. As for your comment on AI, and it being far away. That was one of the CEO’s points in the article, that It is not far away, it is here and now. He also noted that people just are not taking it seriously.
To see what the future holds, just walk into any amazon mega warehouse where almost everything is automated. Reddit columns are filled with horror stories of amazon employees being replaced by automation.
AI will do for offices what amazon did for warehouses.
This is where govt needs to step in with responsible ai policies- not remiving regulation.

AI has less regulation than the regulations around what I can do in my own yard or home. If nuclear technology was invented today, CEOs would have no problem rolling out mini nuclear reactors to every residence with no oversight or regulation. All you need is a few lobbyists.

In addition to scaling back on coverage areas and “traffic-sensitive business,” Business Insider plans to exit most of its Commerce verticals, which have long been a major revenue driver through affiliate links and search engine traffic.

They held on to the will of God so we are told
He wouldn’t bow
They would not bow their knees to Idols made of gold
He wouldn’t burn
He wouldn’t bend
He wouldn’t bow,
He wouldn’t burn.
Diddy pardon teased by the head idiot / rapist in charge
Boomer didn’t like this. Boomer hated taxes, but you had a middle class. Boomer wanted it all for himself/herself. Boomer kept crying until boomer didn’t have to pay.
Boomer wanted a pension. Boomer wanted social security. Boomer got it all. And boomer is leaving a massive deficit for everyone after them to pay.
During John F. Kennedy’s presidency (1961-1963), the top individual marginal tax rate was a high 91%. However, the Revenue Act of 1964, signed into law by Lyndon B. Johnson after Kennedy’s assassination, reduced this rate to 70%. According to the Library of Congress, Kennedy’s administration also proposed a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 52% to 47%, which was also included in the Revenue Act of 1964.
So many reasons to kill Kennedy if you are rich.
Oswald was a patsy.
Dark: I don’t know the details, they were not disclosed as far as the reasons why. I do note she was married I believe less than 10 years, so she might not have been able to claim half pension if the requirement for vesting at least in NYPD is 10 years.
I just noted the article as millennial divorce is not something I have seen discussed before. These divorce articles are usually about Boomers, or over 50, gray divorce.
She has got kids from him.
He will get azz raped.
One of the smartest guys who ever graced this forum, Leftwing, took a beating in divorce as well. They HATE men.
The end.
Dark: Re Leftwing, yes smart, smart guy. I did not agree with all of his posts, but they were thoughtful and rational. The blog is less since he left. As for divorce my brother is a very smart man, and he got slaughtered in his divorce as well. Made it all back and much more. He is thankful however, that he did not live in NJ at the time when his spouse served him with divorce papers. It would have been even worse.
Divorce unfortunately is men taking it on the chin. I am sure that will change, as the courts haven’t caught up to modern women who overpower men. This isn’t the 1950s, but courts treat divorce like it is.
Modern example…saw a video of some hs fight with a female beating the chit out of a male. You would never see that in 1950. Courts will catch up as women are no longer victims.
Courts will catch up as women are no longer victims.
Don’t hold your breath.
Just ask Mr Macron. F’n turd.
Should have had her arrested. Instead he covers for her, and blames of all people, Russia and Putin.
Like WTF. Ok you might hate Russia, and that is fine, but that bitch put her hands around him and violently pushed him.
Where is the outrage from the men? Women will get together and support a woman in this situation. Instead they blame Russia.
Hey Turd, people aren’t that stupid. You got beat up by your wife.
Guess you were smart to do nothing. Or else gotten your ass beaten by other men like the Why She Slap guy:

Lmfao…great example. World leader getting beat up by his wife. Enough said. This is getting out of control.
Just being blunt, based on teaching experience. Angry black female. Stay out of their way, esp when you can’t defend yourself when they blackout on you. Hands down, most difficult students to handle. I don’t make the rules.
Had two sisters 10 years ago that would require security every single day as they would flip out and try to jump this boy. It was like Groundhog Day over and over. It just never ended.
Have to clarify….they were biological sisters. One got left back.
WW3 already started…the race for AI says so. Both sides know the winner makes the rules.

China is basically a degenerate gambler right now…going all in to try to save their ass.
At this point its almost like this administration writes a whole bunch of things down that they wanna say but wait until markets close for the weekend then just releasing them all at once and unfortunately crypto is the only way for any kind market response until monday
F’ing truth. Got damn honest truth. Reminds me of 2019 and begging anyone that would listen to buy the “last good deals in north jersey.” Yes, wayne and Fairfield at 400k or less.
“America now has two classes:
1. Those that owned a home prior to 2021
2. Those who didn’t and are falling further behind by the day
The despondency, resentment and rage that #2 has for #1 really cannot be understated
It’s just bubbling under the surface… for now. Worries me.”
3b,
Remember, you used to accuse me of being biased because i owned. No. I was being dead serious based on my personal analysis of the market. No one on this blog has come close to my analysis. Hell, 99% of the public has not come close to my analysis. Esp the people underwater now buying the hot spots like Texas, Florida, and Nashville.
