Somehow I managed to wipe out the original article link in this post. Sorry! Here it is: Our tools shape our selves - Aeon

Weird assumption. I though I had included the URL, guess I made a mistake posting. Here it is. Thanks for the unneccisary hostility!

I was curious, so I did the (lazy) math.

1 USD is going for about 90 Rubles currently.

Assuming a Ruble is roughly the size of a USD…

A $1M USD stack made of 100 x $10,000, or 10 x 10 stacks measures 12" across x 13" front to back x approx. 5" tall. That is 780 cubic feet or a bit more than 22 cubic meters.

At $464 USD, assuming 90 Ruples per USD and that Rubles are roughly the same dimension as a USD (464 x 90 x 780 or 22) we get 32,572,800 cubic feet or 918,720 cubic meters.

Cargo ship size is usually measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), based on the volume of a 20-foot-long (6.1 m) intermodal container. The internal volume of one of these containers is 1,172 cubic feet or 33.2 cubic meters.

Assuming a standard container size, it would take 28,710 TEUs to move the entire Trump bond via ship. The maximum TEU of the largest container ship listed on Wikipedia is 24,232, leaving Trump 4478 TEUs, 5,248,216 cubic feet or 143,296 cubic meters, and $72M short.

TL;DR: Even with the biggest boatload of Rubles, Trump would still come up short on the bond.

The Canadian government just poured $40b into buying its own mortgage backed securities. Compre this to $150B in March 2020, and $68B from 2006-2009.

Sure looks like a liquidity crisis to me. Buckle up, buckaroo.

IMO, there have been some pretty robust (comparatively) wage gains in America since 2020, relatively few layoffs until recently, a lot of savings from a bunch of places (deferred travel, a break from commuting and childcare costs), some other benefits (mortgage deferrals, locking in low mortgage rates, initially paying down debt, inheritances from dead relatives), and some really strong equities performance. Added together there are a lot of folks with sufficient resources to handle high interest rates so far when otherwise they wouldn’t have.

Of course, this is also why consumer spending and inflation have also been so resilient in the face of higher interest rates.

How connected is the new fiancée to the FSB?

What is a gender neutral replacement for man, guys, buddy, etc?

So I’ve realized that in conversations I’ll use traditional terms for men as general terms for all genders, both singularly and for groups. I always mean it well, but I’ve been thinking that it’s not as inclusive to women/trans people....

Danger if you are white and speaking to folks who are not. Lots of history in that word, use carefully.

I heard cigarette taxes are the preferred form of sin tax because typically smokers pay more in taxes than they use in healthcare etc on the way out. Nicotine addicts die fast and are tax efficient, unlike alcohol or gambling addicts.

Only federal employees take it because only federal employees pay into it from their salary, and have negotiated contributions from their employer.

Make all employees and employers pay into it, and then everyone can participate.
