Have you read the monopoly rules though?

Von wem hast du zum ersten Mal von #Bitcoin gehört?

Look, I love buying the dip as much as the next guy... It gives me the feels.

But I'm out of cash and the dips keep getting lower. Not cool BTC... Not cool.

#TodayILearned that when the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, Ukraine inherited the world's third largest nuclear arsenal with some 1,700 warheads.

In 1994, #Ukraine gave up its nukes, transferring them to #Russia, in exchange for security guarantees from the US, UK, and Russia.

With Russia's recent invasion of Ukraine, Russia is considered to be in violation of this agreement, and some think it was a mistake for Ukraine to give up it's nukes.

I grew up in a socialist country. Therefore, my parents couldn't teach me much; they didn't know any better.

My son just turned 17 and got a #Coldcard for his birthday with 0.05 #Bitcoin on it. We talk about BTC and money every day.

Fuck the government, son! Let them tax some other idiot

German Banks Buckle Under Mounting Credit Stress

Germany's financial sector is grappling with intensifying credit risks as the country's major banks face growing pressure. The demand for lower interest rates across the Eurozone echoes louder, fueled by a brewing crisis that has infiltrated the banking system. The ripple effects of misguided overregulation, an obsession with climate policies, and soaring public debt are now coming to a head.

In just the first half of the year, risk provisions by Germany's top lenders skyrocketed nearly 50%. Banks are grappling with troubled loans from struggling companies and consumers, with some warning that the worst may still be ahead.

DZ Bank AG, the nation's second-largest lender, dramatically increased its risk provisions, citing ongoing geopolitical tensions as a significant economic drag. The combination of rising borrowing costs and the end of an era of cheap energy has left Germany's economy stagnating with little hope of a quick recovery.

The German welfare state: attractor of the invasion

If an immigrant is granted the right to stay in the European Union, he has the right to asylum in the country in which he first arrived. Nevertheless, Germany serves as the absorbent sponge for the invasion of young men on the continent, which has been running hot for years. Around half of those who have immigrated since 2013 end up stranded in Germany at some point, the majority of whom are not gainfully employed even after years of residence in Germany.

The generous German social system, which has become the social welfare office of the world as a product of German moralism, will present German society with a problem that it will initially solve through higher taxes, hidden inflation and extensive expropriation which will destroy the rest of potential productivity growth. Sooner or later, German society will have to face a bitter truth and an open debate about illegal immigration. It is cowardly and stupid to femoralize this debate as right-wing extremist in view of the fact that, in the wake of euro-bureaucratism and our own demographic catastrophe, we will no longer be able to generate the productivity and growth to carry a growing number of cost-recipients.

That's the truth! You either have a welfare state with border control or You are an open society without. You cannot have both without colliding with reality.

Welcome to the #nostr

No chance of that here

Ukraine invading Russia is kind of mad really, I don't know what it can achieve other than accelerating the loss of human life.

Perhaps a slight moral boost, and renewed enthusiasm from Western supporters, but that is going to be short lived, and the cost is frightening.

Erfreulich deutliche Kritik, u.a. durch Clemens Fuest, an den angekündigten Preiskontrollen und Steuererhöhungen aus Harris' Wahlkampfreden.

Ob das auch so deutlich im kommenden Bundestagswahlkampf 2025 geäußert werden wird? Man kann es nur hoffen.
