They’re prompting it “where do we go from here?”

iirc their new installations in 2023 exceeded the rest of the world’s installed capacity. They’ve gotten that much solar only in the last few years whereas all other countries lag very far behind in new projects

With credit cards you can just not pay them. They’re unsecured so there is no asset that a lender can take from you. My SIL did this with 10k of debt. Never declared bankruptcy either. Just defaults. Debt collectors call periodically but if you don’t answer or give them anything then they can’t actually come after you. Really weird debt system we’ve got here

This is supposedly true. I read it somewhere last year long before his most recent health problems

He didn’t say thank you

Interesting. I just started looking around and most advice says a little goes a long way or just use a pinch and adjust from there. I also saw that combining guar gum with xanthan gum makes both work more effectively together so you can you use less in total.

I know a cop wife who dropped her revolver out of her pocket when she went to pick up her dog’s poop. White Americans are deranged

I can’t imagine the intent behind it was to be “competent”; it’s all hack and slash. From a different perspective they’re perfectly competent because they’re destroying undesired things and they provide a lightning rod for public ire.

Holy shit that’s expensive

China being trump’s actual constituency is so funny

A Bloomberg gauge of the greenback tumbled to a six-month low Friday as part of a broader exodus from US assets after trade tensions between the world’s two largest economies continued to intensify. Havens such as the yen, Swiss franc and gold benefited from the outflows.

“Unless you think some resolution is imminent, then the market is likely stay on the current path of least resistance — a dollar exit,” said Rodrigo Catril, strategist at National Australia Bank Ltd. in Sydney. “The narrative of exiting US assets and selling the dollar is likely to persist as long as trade tensions remain elevated.”
