[00:06]	IsambardPrince	Tesla is a meme stock. With no regulators allowed to do anything, they openly admit that Elon Musk's younger brother is insider trading and always knows when to buy and sell it.
[00:06]	IsambardPrince	How can something be worth double and then half in the span of 4 months? Maybe Chainsaw Man should get off the stage and apologize for the Nazism and see if the stock goes up again.
[00:08]	IsambardPrince	Narcissists can't cope with anything but constant praise. When he got booed, he locked himself in a room at Twitter and cried so hard that employees considered a wellness check.

[00:15]	IsambardPrince	There's Alexandria.
[00:15]	IsambardPrince	They have a library.
[00:16]	IsambardPrince	It's not impressive, but it hasn't burned down. The Republicans are trying though.

[01:48]	IsambardPrince	President Trump is his name, and if you are a US citizen, he is your president too. He is doing a great job so far trying to close our very porous border, deport criminal aliens and begin to find fraud, waste and abuse in our government. So sorry you don't see how important these actions are to our nation that is $36+ TRILLION dollars in debt!
[01:48]	IsambardPrince	I replied,
[01:49]	IsambardPrince	"I didn't vote for him. I don't respect him. I won't cooperate with anything he tries to do.
[01:49]	IsambardPrince	He's a pants crapping old man who got pwned by Elon Musk's five year old. Normally I'd say to turn a kid over the knee, but in a meritocracy you have to listen to the person in the room that has the best position, and when he said Trump should shush his mouth and go away because he's not the real president, and wiped boogers on his desk, that made the kid the smartest person in the Oval Office.
[01:49]	IsambardPrince	At least Musk didn't let this one die fatherless in the care of a nanny I guess."

[02:34]	IsambardPrince	I replied,
[02:34]	IsambardPrince	"Yes, you must be like my parents, panicking and sending me "straws for when the world breaks down and we have to drink out of rivers" and "tents" for when nobody was going to have a house while Biden was President, then voting to put someone as incompetent and as racist as yourself in office who may even gut Social Security, so they can relax now apparently.
[02:34]	IsambardPrince	It's just as well, I was getting tired of throwing out garbage sent to me by people who have never been worthy of having a son as intelligent and as normal as me.
[02:34]	IsambardPrince	Garbage and trash they were mailing to me because Fox News scared them every day of black people and immigrants.
[02:34]	IsambardPrince	Republicans hoard guns compulsively. Then the gun is like 100 times more likely to go off when they commit suicide with it or have a "cleaning accident", or they panic and shoot their own family member in the middle of the night.

[02:36]	IsambardPrince	"My mother has 72 cents in the bank, fills her house with guns and crap from Amazon, voted for Trump, hauled my disabled brother to vote for a guy who mocks people with disabilities, and gives her entire pension check to the local con artists at her church.

[04:17]	MinceR	allegedly it's highly lethal
[04:17]	MinceR	here's hoping that at least a tiny bit of natural selection can still happen to the dumbest of all lifeforms
[04:18]	MinceR	it's ironic how billions of these beings feed such a large blob of tissue with so much glucose and it's still all for nothing
[04:18]	IsambardPrince	What, you mean the stupid parents that have lots of children because they're either so mindless that they don't use birth control or so mindless they think God commands it will lose some.
[04:18]	IsambardPrince	Those would be the ones that aren't vaccinating.

[21:43]	MinceR	"Show him your junk! ...Warrior!"
[21:43]	IsambardPrince	If that was 63 cents a point and I could earn 5 points per dollar at the grocery store, they would be paying me $3.15 per $1 spent at the grocery store.
[21:43]	IsambardPrince	I'd go buy the whole store.
[21:44]	IsambardPrince	Donate it all to charity or something and keep sliding the card as much as you can.
[21:45]	IsambardPrince	American Express has really stepped it up since Trump shut down the food bank.
[21:45]	IsambardPrince	;)
[21:47]	IsambardPrince	"It's very easy to break the law while protesting. States can't make protesting itself illegal, so they'll break out the disorderly conduct, trespassing, etc. laws and use those.
[21:47]	IsambardPrince	I don't recommend going to protests, ever, if you're not a US citizen. There are also dangers to protesting for Americans getting Social Security benefits, because if you get reported as booked into a jail, even for a day, Social Security shuts down your payments and you have to go apply in person to restart them, as Musk shuts down all the offices and the phone lines."
[21:51]	IsambardPrince	"This country wants you to be quiet, let rich criminals and parasites suck the taxpayer dry, and stay out of the way or they'll hurt you even if what they do to that end, is very unlawful. Their idea is this, it doesn't matter if what they do to you is illegal, they just do it and by the time you get done fighting about it, the damage to you is done. So what do they care?
[21:51]	IsambardPrince	"
[21:51]	IsambardPrince	"I remember Social Security taking payments away from the elderly for protesting oil companies. They got reported as "in jail" even though the police should not have done that only for booking, because they were never sentenced to jail."
[21:52]	IsambardPrince	"They keep "shitlists" and put citizens and non-citizens on these, and if they don't like you, they start doing things to screw around with you, even if they don't take you to any court."
● Mar 09
[22:19]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, This local election is pretty horrible. I get so much junk mail.
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	The guy that gave us five tax hikes and decimated the rainy day fund without fixing anything at all including a single pothole, is back.
[22:20]	IsambardPrince	And many of the black voters will certainly vote for him because he's black.
[22:21]	IsambardPrince	Then the Republican guy who likes to complain about Mexicans and loud mufflers is back, in a city that's like half Mexican.
[22:21]	IsambardPrince	The current mayor has been hammering her balanced budget (that's not really balanced, but it's not a total shitshow either), and lack of tax hikes.
[22:21]	IsambardPrince	So probably stay with that.
[22:22]	IsambardPrince	Tax increases are not acceptable. The city should be retiring debt if it has no other use for the money.
[22:23]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz-pi, John asked me how to get his debt down. Turns out he financed that Prius at 12% APR for 7 years.
[22:23]	IsambardPrince	He managed to get his credit cleaned up to where he can refi at 6% and save about $7,000 in interest, and get the remaining payments down by 9 at the same time.
[22:23]	IsambardPrince	I said given where he's at it's not a terrible idea, but don't ever sign a car loan like this again.
[22:24]	IsambardPrince	It's existing debt. Once you're in the mess, anything that helps you get out of it is better than where you're at now.
[22:24]	IsambardPrince	I noticed Dave Ramsey partnered with a student loan refinance company.
[22:25]	IsambardPrince	If they can shave off even a bit of interest, that can get your payments down, but I wouldn't shift anything other than private student loans to a refi.
[22:25]	IsambardPrince	If they're federal, you still have Income Based Repayment and you don't get that with private loans.
[22:26]	IsambardPrince	Trump and the courts have gotten rid of Biden's SAVE plan, but if you're on IBR, then at 20 years the rest of the loan is forgiven and that's the law.
[22:26]	IsambardPrince	It's going to be a painful 20 years, but you may end up with some of it going away.
