    The Boz: Parlay with that record?

    I did a series of fun LOSING live half inning total over props early on. Then the starters began to get shuffled out and the second tier “All Stars” got shuffled in so they could get time in front of fans. I smashed the game total over with wanton disregard for the consequences of my actions.

    Game was total o3.5 -129 at one point and I could not believe my eyes

    Faded “All Stars” like Kershaw (he did fine) … you get the idea

    Basically betting an exhibition game like a degen

    its more TACO.


    in the evening when hes sundowning he starts sharpening his knives and looking for pots to stir. the rumors hit the wire and then someone convinces him to sleep on it and now hes rolling it all back, saying its 'highly unlikely' that powell gets fired.


    a few days ago btw there were rumors powell was over the drama and looking to quit, theres that to consider as well.

    Not ideal, but still better than the President being run by unelected shadow figures with an autopen during 2023 and 2024.

    lol. Wall Street won’t allow it, even though they want lower interest rates.

    Wall Street is about to host a melt up of assets during low interest rates and easing. Wall Street’s toke box will be overflowing

    Long term importance of separation of powers and Fed independence extend beyond one quarter. Wall Street can’t think that far ahead

    All hail the American Caesar. Just as Thiel and Yarvin envisioned. It’s incredible how it has come to pass

    We live in an era of fraud in America. Not just in banking, but in government, education, religion, food, even baseball... What bothers me ins't that fraud is not nice. Or that fraud is mean. For fifteen thousand years, fraud and short sighted thinking have never, ever worked. Not once. Eventually you get caught, things go south. When the hell did we forget all that? I thought we were better than this, I really did.

    i feel like im growing out of baum's worldview. fraud is a very specific thing and no one went to jail over the GFE. whats more you can point at something and say 'this is a ponzi' and even the people who agree are going to go balls deep into it if they think they are early enough to turn a profit.

    the solution is nationalized banks but no ones ready for that convo. yet.

    ask again when powell gets replaced with mike the pillow guy and no one can move to take a new job and everyones children has to sleep in the same room.

    You know just how to jab my tender spots. I respect that. I heart Baum. He is a very odd human. People who worked for him adored him and his quirks.

    “Things go south”.

    They did. People lost their asses. Their jobs. Their homes. Lives were ruined. Populism resulted. We still suffer the consequences

    Baum is not making an argument for the American judicial or political system. That kind of justice exists elsewhere - perhaps on a planet in our own galaxy.

    We are talking about the markets. Markets punish and correct…

    Oh, and yes regarding knowingly playing a ponzi going in. Yes, I’m personally betting a melt up. Despite still EoT fundamentally

    i consider myself 100% morally aligned with baum, and i believe you do as well. but yeah id like to see him point at the real issues with a sharper stick i suppose.

    This is why I’m not worried about Trump. He hires incompetent people to work for him. Intelligent people won’t, because they know the second things go south, Trump will trash their reputations. He’s done that like 50 times.

    you can literally see the exact point where someone realized he was serious and the exact point someone explained to him what would happen if he didnt immediately claim it was all just a big misunderstanding.
