Had a moment to read Tether's 6/30/26 Assurance Report from audit firm BDO, and it really does look bad. US Dollar Token (USDT), the largest USD stablecoin with an issuance of $183 Billion, lost over half its capital in the second quarter of 2026. A repeat would mean they're insolvent. Thread 1/9

Man, Tether’s USDT 6/30/26 reserve report looks very bad to me. Their current leverage capital ratio is 2.18%. To put that in perspective, if they were an insured bank, we’d almost certainly be conducting a failed bank auction at this point. They’re just 19 basis points from when resolution would…

Trying my hand at hollow forms again. The hollowing process is much more tedious than for a bowl. Bigleaf maple, about 3.5" in diameter and a little over 1.5 ounces, with one coat of boiled linseed oil so far.

oh yeah he put me on a blocklist claiming I was MAGA because I pointed out both this and also that he ran for political office in Arizona as a Republican and it caused a scandal because he got caught sending racist messages to a campaign vendor who turned him down.

This man is known for his bigotry and his misuse of peoples information for his own financial gain. He is not left leaning whatsoever and not a good person at all. He is most likely behind the massive amount of Blue Maga accounts.

My mom was already pretty deep into aphasia when my daughter came out as trans. I won’t say my mom was especially enlightened about LGBTQ issues — she only really came around on marriage equality because GOP opposed it and she *hates* Republicans — but she just said “I always knew she was a girl.”

I’ll share something my mom created. She’s in memory care with advanced dementia, close to non-verbal. She used to be very proud of her photography, but can’t use even a point-and-shoot now because she forgets which button to press. But she painted these pictures in her art class recently.
