Weak men do create hard times. Weak men let their insecurity and greed make their decisions.
Conservatives are weak. The generation that empowered Reagan, Trump, and every red tie inbetween was weak.

lol theyre not worried like that. for them, the racism and homophobia and all is all worth it.
shit, they even learned to romantize that struggle and hard times as something virtuous, for a bigger purpose.
they will think nothing of it if the people they hate are getting fucked. they won't regret this and will blame you for trying to fix it, unless it really affects them personally.
Even then it'll still be someone else's fault. It must be antifa or mole people or something, it couldn't possibly be their own fault or that of Glorious Leader.
Not to mention shut down everything the US has relied on for order. Bro is actually thinking of shutting down FEMA. wtf
What's FEMA?
Federal Emergency Management Agency
Read about it here if you want to know more because I can't be bothered to learn about it
fema nuts lmao gottem
FEMA balls ayy lmaoo
They help regular people when there are natural disasters. Can't have that now, can we? Where's the rugged individualism in that?
Thatβs the organization that helps with domestic disasters, usually hurricanes/earthquakes/floods and the like. So kill that org and people will be on their own when disasters happen.
Headed by a guy who he didn't know there was a hurricane season.

Itβs all the other men. Always.
"Right now is the easy times that strong men like me made" says the man who grew up in the easy times
Broke: This is fine, everything is fine
Woke: Weak men will create hard times
Bespoke: Let's get this over with already
Guess I've lived long enough to become bespoke.
They'll rationalize it, because at the end of the day, they're all about feelings rather than facts
Also sunk cost and all that. After all if they admit they are wrong on this what else could they be wrong about? Nope better to just keep "winning"
Good times create weak men who think those good times came out of nothing and want an easy excuse on why they are being deprived of something they thing they are naturally entitled to. This excuse usually ends up being believing those who the good men who created those good times fought against.
Glazing?
Gen z slang meaning "adulation."
It means you jizzed all over them, i.e glazed them.
Aaaand I don't want to hear about how Millennials text ever again from Gen Z.
Idk I think it's pretty cool that glazing isn't seem as a negative anymore. The bukkake shaming is over!
I think people also use it in a "sugar glaze" sense like donuts or whatever, but this is the internet. Ain't no way that's thr actual origin.

I thought that could be the meaning.. Wonder if Sam Altman knew that when he described ChatGPTβs recent extreme fawning in reply to every message as βtoo much glazingβ. Jesus Christ. Edit: as if any metaphorical amount is desirable, btw. Just our leaders, thatβs all.
The jizz part was a joke.
"glazing" is a sexual term?
Im reading conflicting things about it honestly. I learned it as being related to "dickriding", but it looks like people also mean it in a "sugar glazed" context, like donuts.
Both work out to the same thing in the end.

Nope. They got exactly what they voted for.
Iβm 42 and I own nothing of value, might as well just keep the good times rolling.
38, just lost the 12 year old 267k miles car to an idiot my age in a brand new muscle car who was immediately on the phone to Daddy. It was one of the few things of value I had to my name. Was hoping to get 400k out of it. Instead I get a new car payment that I have no idea how I'm going to cover.
The times are rolling, I'm not sure they're good.
30 years old, and well on my way to be a part of that esteemed club.
Just wait for it to hit really hard
Actual fucking moron pictured who doesn't understand the current position of anyone "not mormal" in today's society...
pathetic.
Tbh I wanna know why people keep saying this. The NASDAQ is almost back up to its YTD high.
I know the NASDAQ doesn't mean much to the normal folks but to the people in charge that is "the economy"
because things havent been good outside of the line go up pretend world.

Dollar hasn't recovered value tho
SPY is up 3% YTD while DXY (which measures the value of a dollar) is down 9% YTD. If you own shares of SPY, then you hold them in dollars, so the real change in value of your stock is [share price] x 1.03 x 0.91, which translates to being down over 6%.
BUT not only is your investment value down, if you live in the US you presumably get paid in dollars as well. Which means youβve gotten a 9% pay cut since the start of the year.
Does DXY have inflation included in its calculation?
DXY measures the US dollar against every other currency. So if the US dollar in isolation had a bunch of inflation (e.g. because the US government printed a ton of money), then that would be reflected in DXY.
But if every major currency printed a ton of money at the same time, then DXY would not change because itβs only relative to other currencies.
So it doesnβt calculate inflation directly, but itβs generally correlated with it.
I hate that we don't have a unique term for inflation due to increasing prices versus printing a shit ton of money.
That was informative. Thank you!

Half-joking. The technical data suggests there is a possible change in trend coming up. No guarantees. This is not trading advice.
