He has NO IDEA how much this post just pissed Xi off. This is why you don’t conduct diplomacy via Temu Twitter

Hey, will you look at that? If you don't do fine-grained age breakdowns for every demographic except Gen X, then it turns out we're not big outliers. It's just under-45 vs over-45:

How much of that is actually from Texans

I was reliably told this was government price controls

Sir we have been over this. Fortune cookie slips are not letters from Xi.

Americans are, of course, historically excellent at making short term sacrifices

Dems, this is close but not going to cut it. Take a page from his book. Demand a cognate test, demand it in front of people. Demand the long form cognitive test. Send “your people” to investigate the doctors. His cognitive test is totally fake. Many people are saying it’s a fake test.

If you imagine this as a talking heads cover band rework it’s petty hilarious. And you may ask yourself, what if it resolves itself? And you may ask yourself what if inflation is zero. And you may question, this is not my beautiful house, that is not my beautiful wife.

It’s infuriating when a woman comes forward about a man raping her in his hotel room after drinking and the response is “Why would she go to his room?” “Why would she drink with him?” This is Mike Pence logic. Women should be allowed to hang out with men without expecting they will be raped.

There are several species of fungus with better economic understanding than Hassett

The kind of commitment to self worth that ensures a 5th place finish.

This chart is a data visualization crime! First cohort: 4 years Second cohort: 6 years Third cohort: 4 years Fourth cohort: 11 years Fifth cohort: 19 years This is gerrymandering data

There’s good odds they will be worse

This is a lie, it’s not a falsehood or an exaggeration, it’s a full on lie. The actual number is 4

If 78% of Americans voted we’d solve a lot of our problems too.

The man is the Jim Cramer of politics.

Resolution to only bring knifes to impending gun fight.

Today in, least surprising tariff news ever.

Leeeeeets get ready to TACO!!

We boomers were a civilized generation. Instead of Stephen Miller, we had affable racists like Pat Buchanan and William F. Buckley. And rather than be so rude as to say, “White Supremacy,” we had a much friendlier term for it, “Supply Side Economics.”

This is 1000% correct

I think Fertilizer, Plastics, and Oil experts are pretty unequivocally in the "its already fucked" camp. And we are just choosing different degrees

My rates are reasonable! 5% of CEO compensation

@sky.skymarchini.net take a nice long slip of water, then read this

Check on your economist friends. They are not ok

Do the drinks come pre-covered or is a bring your own kind of deal?

That’s 1 week of US oil consumption for those playing the home game.

I’m reminded that Rex Tillerson once said: “The President of the United States, is a moron.” After serving in his cabinet. He was under selling it. Like on top of everything else, the grifting, the racism, the sexism, the whole Epstein everything, he’s really just breathtakingly fucking stupid.

Someone please explain to this decaying brain addled dipshit how global commodities trade works.

Monday - Send more troops Tuesday - Say we’re ending war Wednesday - Send more troops Thursday - Say ending war Friday - Send more troops Saturday - Golf Sunday - Golf

@sky.skymarchini.net you know what to do

You all do get that Iran LIES as a matter of practice right? Don’t get me wrong, they can and will fuck with energy prices but they can’t credibly mate actual market claims.

At some point the market needs to stop falling for this nonsense

stock market looks like a win probability chart for a baseball game where a team's bullpen blew a big lead

He really is just an incredibly stupid human being

The ghoulish content notwithstanding this is, objectively, some of the worst writing I’ve ever forced through my higher reasoning center.

Now watch this drive

Trumps Katrina is of course, completely self inflicted and entirely domestically economic (for now)

More of this please. (Unless it’s from Newsom and then just…don’t)

The word “can” is doing an incredible amount of lifting here.

Underrated point in the SCOTUS decision: They flatly agree that tariffs are taxes. Given this clarification, and spending recently rammed through with the BBB, Trump seems more like a tax happy Chavista than anything else in recent history.

The really interesting thing about Trumps reaction to the tariff decision is how he’s still all over the Epstine Files.

The new Rent Remake looks like shit

This is the kind of thing, that when it fails to generate a meaningful ROI and they pull the plug will be the harbinger of a large scale AI sell off.

It's sort of endearing when these guys pretend they can read.

On top of maga true believers bowing out it looks like the Vichy Dems are looking for lifeboats

I am no less queer because I'm an economist, we've been doing this discourse for a week now and i'm getting piss fucking tired of it. I don't have to hand in my queer card because i don't fit your particular flavor of leftism. bsky.app/profile/sky....

It turns out turning the presidents pet eunuch and his band of unbathed virgin dorks lose on every system of the US government was a huge waste of time, money and human capital, to say nothing of the privacy sand security risk.

Your periodic reminder that David (ball)Sacks is one of the dumbest people alive and should almost never be listened to. the current administration has basically put the entire economy all in on AI. So when, not if, it deflates just remember it’s dorks like David that get to take the blame.
