I have no caption for this.
“Just get the printers going.”
“MultiVersus Details Rifts, Its New Single-Player Mode”
“It’s the Year of Shadow the Hedgehog, so show him to me, please”
“EA’s college football video game returns in July after an 11-year hiatus”
“Just get the printers going.”
Between this video and the interview he had with Cavuto about inflation, I get the feeling that Jared Bernstein doesn’t know much about finance and economics.
I’m sure he fucking loves modern atonal music, however.
Bernstein stated he grew up in a “musical family” and aspired to be a professional musician as a young person.[9] Bernstein graduated with a bachelor’s degree in music from the Manhattan School of Music where he studied double bass with Orin O’Brien. Throughout the ’80s, Bernstein was a mainstay on the jazz scene in NYC.[citation needed] He is of Jewish descent.[10]
He also earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College as well as a Doctor of Social Work in social welfare from Columbia University’s school of social work in 1994.[11][12] At Columbia, his dissertation advisor was Irwin Garfinkel.[13]
I’m careful about credentialism. I’ve met plenty of people on Wall St with quite eclectic backgrounds that were quite skilled and that I learned from.
OTH, it’s definitely a sign to pay attention before giving he or she any credibility.
Fair point. I mean, Jeffrey Epstein didn’t even finish college.
I worked with a banking analyst that had BA in English from Brown and was amazingly bright.
He had to pass all the same fucking financial exams that I did and he did so with no issues and completely by self study. I also self studied for them as well, but had previously studied lots of the material both undergraduate and graduate. I had quite a bit of respect for him.
Also – Evan Greenberg.
He got the job 100% by nepotism, but he 100% understands the industry.
What, exactly, did this “doctor” of social work add to the human canon of knowledge?
Something similar to Dr. Jill?
“I have no caption for this.”
Looks like 4 play.
Berenstein thinks the same way,
That TikTok girl reminds me of an in-law I have. Early 20’s, went to art school, is working at an animal shelter. Loved that her student loans were forgiven. Recently she was on Facebook lamenting that you can’t afford to go out to dinner anymore. Mrs. TOK is not a big follower of politics, but she did respond with something like, “Then vote for someone different.”
In my early 20’s I was making $20k and splurging on the $10 early bird 3-course special with my two roommates.
Pity we can’t import Javier Milei and run him for president. I’d happily settle for Thomas Sowell, if he weren’t retired, or Don Boudreaux.On the other hand, why would they want the aggravation of dealing with Congress and the alphabet agencies?
Vivek was about the closest this last time around. Rand Paul learned quickly a while back
Rand seems to have settled for the role of gadfly. doG knows we need more of that sort in Congress.
Yeah when even normies (who should not be thinking about politics) are noticing something’s up, something’s up.
I wish whoever owns the IP would just admit that Reed Richards’ power is stupid, doesn’t film well, and retcon a new set.
Marvel?
At least they only have the one guy who can stretch. DC seems to use that as a B-list power set. Off the top of my head: Plastic Man, Martian Manhunter, Elongating Man (and his wife), Metemorpho, AMAZO, and I’m sure I’m missing a couple.
NERD!
*clears throat*
Geek.
To be fair — AMAZO has (or can have) every power of everyone in the DCU, after all. I think Justice League Animated was probably the one people who actually thought about that…. typically the writers nerf him by making him use only one at a time with the weakness of the source hero at the same time.
True, but I was going for quantity here. Funnily enough, I was rewatching the DCAU Justice League when the realization of how many shapeshifters DC has with that power set. The Marvel shapeshifters are usually able to change into objects/people.
And as for it not working on film, Mr. Impossible worked quite well in Venture Bros. But that was animated instead of live action.
How many Firsters are there in Marvel or DC canon?
That’s what I thought.
Elastigirl for the win!
What an incredible thing to say!
1. Buick driver
2. Handicapped plates – do they assign them automatically when you register a Buick?
3. Turn signals are for other people
Idiot drove through parking spaces and cuts me off, proceeds to not signal and cause an accident
Mentally handicapped? Then he may an ‘economist’. DC qualified.
Said by a teammate: Not all disabilities are visible.
One of my favorite sight gags in a movie is in the original Road House when the owner of the bar sees “for a good fuck call 555-5555” He changes the F to a B and then adds an i between the u and c so it now says “for a good Buick call 555-5555”
Great flick that.
Did you know that 555 prefix is often used in movies for phone numbers? They were reserved for phone company use when they switched over from letters and numbers. They’ve been used in tv and movies since the 60’s so some random person doesn’t have to deal with thousands of idiots calling them up.
867-5309…
Fool me once…
If you ever need a phone number to get a discount in some store just use your local area code and those digits and you will be guaranteed that someone has registered with that number.
It’s Friday and I’m still dateless, so I’m-a just drink

“USA is in debt. Everybody’s in debt. Why don’t we just print more money?” she asked. “Just get the printers going.”
Janet Yellin, is that you?
I wish she was in transit or transitory.
Even her voice is cringhatory
Obligatory.
Necessary.
It’s shocking that Bernstein couldn’t simply explain that printing money doesn’t solve the reality of scarcity, the economic idea that there is never enough stuff — commodities, products, services, etc. — to satisfy our infinite desires.
When do e get to artificial scarcity, intentionally created by the government? Is that Econ 201? 301?

Saved this for today. Ubisoft finally makes an assassin creed game in Japan only to make the playable male protagonist an African. While the character, Yasuke, is based on a real person that was bought to Japan by a Jesuit, he was not a samurai and was a court novelty of the samurai Nobunaga
The female protagonist, Naoe, likewise is based on a real person, the daughter of famous shinobi, Fujibayashi Nagato, but she like Yasuke was not a ninja
A noble wiki editor also edited Yasuke’s wiki entry to remove the statement that there is no proof that he was a samurai
I am actually finishing AC Odyssey and was certain before all this came out that it would be the last entry in the series that I would play.
But I’m sure they’ll have their little DIE notice come up before the game.
Maybe they can have it written in Japanese to really rub salt in the wound
この物語はフィクションです。。。
Wait until tomorrow!
Shogun, err I mean Shōgun is hot historical mess with lots of modern PC shit, but people love it.
How many ingame Ads will it feature?
But the fact that Bernstein has a degree in music instead of economics isn’t the problem.
You can never run out of notes. They learned him that in music school.
EMPEROR: Exactly. Very well put. Too many notes
Well! There it is.
“When do we get to artificial scarcity, intentionally created by the government?”
Can you say import duties?
Why should we import duties? The duty to pay taxes and the duty to obey the government are all that any red-blooded American needs!

I think that is called ‘Price Controls’.
The dinner is too damn high! We need price controls on food ASAP.
I just got my tickets for a White House tour next month. I hope we get to see the Presidential Shitter.

Keeping them happy down on the plantation
President Biden is engaged in a flurry of events this week centered around the 70th anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court case that ended racial segregation in public schools, part of an intensified push to court Black voters crucial to his reelection bid.
On Sunday, he will give a closely watched commencement speech to Morehouse College, a historically Black university in Georgia.
Biden held a private meeting with plaintiffs and family members of plaintiffs from the Brown case on Thursday at the White House, and on Friday, he gave remarks at an NAACP event marking the Brown anniversary at the National Museum of African American History and Culture. On the weekend, he heads to the swing state of Michigan, where he’ll address an NAACP dinner in Detroit.
I hope he tells them some good stories about when he and Uncle Remus were growing up.
I hope he tries to show them his hairy legs.
It is always
19551954 with the left.I hope they accidentally let too much slack in his chain and gets on a roll and makes another remark around “if you don’t support me, you ain’t black”, or makes up some wild-ass story or drops the n-word or something.
The you aint black thing didn’t hurt him last time. Why would it matter if he did it again?
That was, by far, the most racist thing I’ve heard a politician say in my lifetime. And it pretty much didn’t matter. Of course the upper class media helped that by not pushing it.
It was far more offensive on every level than grab them by the pussy.
I am firmly in the camp that Biden stole that election and will do it again. I guess I’m black pilled. But a whole lot of people take their marching orders from the media and the media shrugged and said no big deal. So went the left leaning public.
While I can easily believe that Dems were able to mess with votes in some key locations in some key states, I’m not sure how much more they were able to do than usual. Maybe a bit, with the Vid hysteria and changed rules. But Biden still may have won as people somehow though he represented a return to normal that Trump didnt, especially after the Summer of Floyd and the year of tumult. Trump was down considerably in every poll taken in the months before. Unless they manage to toss him in jail or get their weak ass feliny charges to stick, I think he manages to get well beyond the margin of cheat. What happens after that will be interesting to say the least.
The Biden campaign said the engagement was a signal of how the administration has prioritized issues important to Black voters — and how it is working to earn their support.
They’re all the same.
Listen Jack, you ain’t black!
Wait a minute, why are they important only to black people? Why do black people get favors? I want favors, too.
How about something for old left handed people in Flyover Country? As Reagan said, “I’m paying for that shit”
Rifts launch players into gameplay scenarios with twists to keep you on your toes. Each Rift has Nodes that range from a standard battle to a mini-game challenge. One example of the many shown in the trailer sees Bugs Bunny attacking targets while collecting stars. Nodes also have unique mutators, which can add additional challenge or even story elements into the mix.
This sounds like it isn’t based on Rifts.
It’s probably been posted here, I haven’t been around much.
Dave Smith and Tucker Carlson. I’m about 40 minutes in. It’s a good interview.
Amoskeag Auction posted their timed auction catalog today. I browsed it, and saw this. I said, “Huh.” Then I read the description. I still say, “Huh.”
That’s a lot of extra weight to add to al already heavy ‘pistol’
