All other storms bow before El Niño

It’s money in the bank. In a suit case The money is. It’s dangling from the ceiling. You gotta climb a ladder to get the money in the bank. It’s a green suitcase There is no money in the suitcase. There is no bank.

So the market just doesn’t care at all that big tech has 1.6 trillion in off the books debt? All time highs across the board? Even tho there is 1.6 trillion dollars missing? 1.6 trillion dollars worth of value that everyone thought existed last week but is not actually there? What is investing?

There are 3 types of American YouTube woodworkers: The Twink: serious about the craft, amazing production value. The Goofy oaf: tells jokes but knows their stuff. The old man: a wise old man that you assume just knows everything but you really hope they never talk politics.

Another example of the problem with the fixation with Trump’s putative emotions: here a story about the Trump administration’s corruption, incompetence, and venality is framed as one about Trump’s “wrath.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/01/u...

So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.
