Would you please link the cholesterol scam article he describes?
I don't have Twitter and don't think I can view the comments without an account
My main investment thesis is "nothing ever happens"
I don't speculate that uranium is going to take off
I do speculate that US devaluation will continue unabated, so I have a variety of positions based around inflation & global diversification

I speculate that certain companies which are priced for catastrophe (ie very low P/E despite a strong balance sheet) will not experience that catastrophe (or will encounter it later than price reflects)
What supplemental fats have you tried and how did it go?
It looks like you have some sort of butter or cheese there
I'm partial to the "two conspiracies" theory in which the US planned to blow a hole in the Pentagon and Israelis heard about this and decided to destroy the twin towers also
Trying to find a date via app in the West and it's like... fat, black, fat & black, single mother, polyamorous, pro-choice...
It seems like the only reasonable women are Christian and I don't believe in ghosts
A lot of my favorite fiction is written by men.
The female works I've most enjoyed are probably somewhat unusual in their intensity of focus on ideas, things & obstacles rather than feelings, people and relationships.
eg. Ayn Rand, Andre Norton and JK Rowling
So far as I can tell, Harry Potter undergoes no real character development and his only real virtue is bravery. I stopped reading somewhere in the 5th book so maybe I missed out but that was my impression, anyway.
Yes, see the "meteorites" as well as testimony of firefighters who say that for many days afterwards there was "molten steel, like in a foundry"
Both the ballot box and jury box require one man to defend the rights of another, and thus in a society of indoctrination and propaganda some third alternative must be sought (sooner or later)
The reserves are already gone - Social Security lent the money to the rest of the Feds who spent it
The Social Security "trust fund" is US Treasuries
To raise money, SSA sells Treasuries
If they didn't have those Treasuries and needed to raise money, the Treasury department would sell Treasuries
It's just a paper game
It depends how you feel about people sending you very small amounts of bitcoins
Welcome!
I eat a species-appropriate diet
This actually explains why the dollar appreciation of Bitcoins is not a strong argument in their favor - nobody bought the bottom and sold the top.
I recently have become more optimistic that national divorce can be avoided.
Specifically, I think we are seeing a political re-alignment of neocons to the Dems and liberals to the Reps.
The consequence of this (if true and it continues) will be a Republican "new right" which is a coalition of patriots, (constitutional) conservatives and libertarians. This would be extremely liberal (as in liberty).
The Democrats would become an openly big-government if not totalitarian party. I very much doubt that such a party can maintain political power at the federal level, despite the institutional support it now enjoys.
Perhaps a few of the more... adventurous states would prefer to split off from the Union to pursue a communist or fascist (although they wouldn't call it fascist) mode of government. In that sense perhaps even a reunification of liberals and constitutionalists would fail to forestall a national divorce. However, I suspect that even these states rely on the goodwill and ignorance of large numbers of liberals. Without that goodwill, it's not clear to me that the commies can maintain control of California, New York, etc.
