The New Joe Montgomery Birther Pit / Re: Mainstream Economics Thread

I am and have always been anti-manufacturing jobs. They did a great job of building this country's economy but that phase of America is behind us.

Like you don't want humans specifically building crap? I'm hoping that doesn't mean you want no production regardless of automation, that seems stupid as eff.

I think he's saying that growing the manufacturing sector in today's US economy might not be the best goal for us given our current level of wealth. Which isn't crazy

Ah yes, the all encompassing "he lies about everything"

cRusty - why are you such a simpleton that you believe that what was disclosed isn't possible?

We found out during President Robo Pen's administration the US was still funneling millions upon millions of dollars to the Taliban.

in all seriousness I think there are elements of most Doge things that are feasible. But they are so intentionally misleading - inflated numbers, exaggerated narratives, lack of real receipts, vague details outside of the most outlandish, etc., that it's impossible for me to take anything they say at face value.

Do you really take everything Elon Musk says at face value? I don't understand how anyone can still do that. He lies about everything

Surprised MetallicA played in that venue at that time

within a one year span, Metallica played in KC three times in three different venues

July 19, 1988 Arrowhead Stadium (monsters of rock tour with Van Halen & Scorpions)
Nov 29, 1988 Municipal Stadium (damaged justice tour with Queensryche)
June 21, 1989 Sandstone Amphitheater (damaged justice tour with The Cult)

Not to be that guy but Municipal stadium was torn down in like 1976.

Sorry I meant Municipal Auditorium, good catch!

i've lived in kc my whole life and i don't think i've ever stepped foot in municipal auditorium. that can't be true right? what goes on in there besides NAIA

in like 2004 or 2005 I saw a Tubby-Smith coached Kentucky team play a preseason tournament there.

I forgot - they had Rajon Rondo on that team!

« on: March 26, 2025, 02:57:13 PM »

my daughter watched the F1 series and got super into it, so I started watching races and listened to some podcasts on roadtrips with her and kind of got hooked. It's such a silly sport! There are 10 teams of 2! Same 20 drivers every race! (more or less) They all do goofy promos for crap but all are ultra rich and live in monaco! The rules are stupid and arbirtrary! Max easily wins every race!

seriously it's very fun

Listen, I am self aware enough to say that my love of the premier league despite me playing soccer is at least a good bit determined by my social status and politics.  You should just realize that you don’t just like F1 because your daughter, it is an aspirational hobby buddy and you will go to Monaco in the next 10 years.

Congrats! You made it!

update: going to Monaco GP practice and quali in May. Surprisingly cheap!

lmao good work kk

Here is the cost breakdown:

airfare: $220 because I'll already be in Europe for work
Airbnb: $375 for 4 nights in Nice
Tickets: $160 for Friday, $270 for Saturday

Not bad! plus the race in Monaco sucks, quali is where the real action is there.

also Liam Lawson getting crap on at Red Bull is great. Love Lewis at Ferrari and getting pissed at his engineers. McLaren might make this a boring season at the top. Ollie Bearman saying "Ciao" on the radio to go from 16th to 15th was elite.

What a sport!

So one of the largest mutual fund providers in the world (one example here) is the largest institutional share holder of Tesla and being a smart person I know their funds are widely available across a broad cross section of 401K programs.

But . . . people just don't understand?   

Another entity also holds hundreds of millions of shares of Tesla stock almost exclusively on behalf of 3rd party investors . . . but people just don't understand?   

exactly, and that mutual fund provider funds my 401k
