Is It AI Or Is It Real?
I noticed that we don’t see Garcia’s face clearly. All the images are from the side. There are some perspective issues when they are shaking hands. Finally, they went from, “No, you can’t see him.” With the Senator getting stopped by the military 2 miles from the prison, to sitting and having drinks in a…

The Sky Should Be Falling!
Just a short follow up. In one day the portfolio I am following recovered about 530%. That is to say, the reported loss over the last 6 days has gone from 3.58% yesterday to 0.19% today. Just stay the course and things will get better. If you are invested in the market, don’t panic. As…

The Zelenskyy Drama (ripped off)
I’m tired, I’m stealing this from Miguel. Old readers from the blog know that I view the conflict between Ukraine and Russia as a large version of a war between the Barzinis and the Corleones. For some reason, Ukraine went from being a cesspool of corruption and international crime to an innocent country bullied by…
