So they’re effectively naked on these trades?
How is it legal to “sell” something you don’t have? Bank to bank I get it - they understand the risk and can make that decision if they want - but to pass that risk onto an unwitting 3rd party who is expecting to receive gold and is now in a position where they believe they own it but instead have nothing but an unbacked and unfulfillable IOU seems unscrupulous if not outright illegal.
What happens when those IOU holders come to claim their gold and there’s none to give them?

Why would a defendant be compelled to reveal their strategy in a court case?
Could they not just say “my strategy is to prove my innocence” and be done with it?
Eli Lilly’s rebranding of itself as “Lilly - A medicine company” is one of the most insidious and laughably inauthentic pivots I’ve seen in some time.
It is the big pharmaceutical equivalent of the Steve Buscemi “how do you do fellow kids” meme.
“Hey drug cattle, we’re not like those ‘other’ poison peddlers. We’re just a humble apothecary making natural remedies for the good people out there. Plz check out our Etsy shop where you can get a fresh batch of our hand-poured Ozempic and locally-sources PReP pills in hand-blown glass jars.”
It’s should be obvious to everyone what they’re trying to do, but there are going to be swaths of people who eat this up as if they were selling cave salt lamps and palo santo sticks and not actively working to keep you sick, stupid, and dependent.
DATA: over a long enough timeline you will die from malnutrition or health problems. You can speed up this process by replacing more, or ideally *all* of your caloric intake with chocolate. This won’t make you skinny in life, and, in fact, will do the opposite along with imparting a host of acute and chronic health issues. However, once death has been achieved, you will be the skinniest you’ve ever been - including rapid onset weight loss over the first months of this second and most critical phase - you will be the skinniest you have ever been. What’s more is this will be a permanent state, you svelte little thing. Use coupon code THXNESTLE at checkout to get a jump start on this revolutionary, and fast diet brought to you by Pfizer.
I love stumbling across a an older band and immediately digging their stuff. It imparts a special “how did I not know about them?” rush that’s equal parts ecstasy over knowing there’s likely a whole catalog of their stuff to dive into and agony over having gone so long without enjoying their music.
It’s not just exploring their music either. It’s the addition of exploring their history that makes these discoveries a joy.
Today that band is: Big Audio Dynamite
Who are they?
Formed in 1984 by Mick Jones, the former guitarist and co-lead songwriter of The Clash. The group blended punk rock with an eclectic mix of reggae, hip-hop, funk, dance, and electronic music, making them one of the pioneers of alternative dance and electronic rock.
After being fired from The Clash in 1983, Jones formed B.A.D. and took a more experimental approach to music, incorporating sampling and electronic beats—elements that were ahead of their time.
Enjoy

Holy shit. Don Lapre. Those infomercials were a fount of hilarity. “I STARTED MY MULTIMILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS OUT IF THIS TINY, ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT…”
Oh no. Did you have a predation issue recently?
