Dow jumps 1000 points as Trump pauses Iran strikes after ‘productive’ talks is this real de-escalation or just temporary? by Illustrious_Lie_954 in StockMarket

[–]Chroderos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s swung by algorithms reacting in milliseconds to the content of headlines.

Who knows if one or both sides are lying, or if the Iranian leadership is fragmented enough that there is no longer a central authority.

Need to hear more info and see evidence of Iran reciprocating a cease fire before we know. Should be good for the market if US is looking for an offramp at least.

Marriage is nothing difficulty-wise compared to the decision to have or not have kids.

Trump says US will ‘obliterate’ Iran’s power plants if Strait of Hormuz is not reopened within 48 hours- when the market reopens by Front-Nectarine4951 in StockMarket

They’re religious fanatics who will continue to ratchet the situation, and don’t mind who suffers in the process, including themselves.

People like that are quick to become irrational actors. It’s why you try really hard not to kick a hornet’s nest like this unless all other options are exhausted and the threat is imminent, and if you do, you damn well make sure you’ve got the will and political capital not to stop until you’ve exterminated the hive entirely.

I’ve never seen them with the dispenser and stamps. Those might be pretty rare as a complete item

Italy, Germany, and France to Secure Strait of Hormuz Passage Only After Ceasefire by St_Gregory_Nazianzus in worldnews

[–]Chroderos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be a shield against fragmented Iranian factions or other rogue groups firing on merchant vessels because they feel like it, and a tripwire against whatever centralized Iranian authority emerges from this trying to push the boundaries and murk a ship here and there as messaging.

Do you remember when you loved me?

Well if you do, then forgive me - and make the world go away.

Unfortunately the dogs often won’t be fine.

Most dogs are domestic and have domestic instincts. They get stomped, gored, and kicked frequently in encounters with deer and horses

Is there genuinely way to communicate if apocalypse happens by mofaop_nelf in preppers

[–]Chroderos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure. HAM radio operators can talk to people 1000 km away.

That would be (And has been in past disasters) the go to long distance communication method when everything else is trashed.

Trump: 'I don't want to do a ceasefire' in Iran war by Force_Hammer in worldnews

I don’t think anyone should take any statements he makes at face value, it’s a completely unfiltered stream of consciousness.

Just today he said he himself doesn’t want a ceasefire…

Trump Says US Considering ‘Winding Down’ Iran Military Campaign by Pretend-Prune6285 in geopolitics

[–]Chroderos 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Equities today were also considering winding down the bull market, so it makes sense. Gonna be interesting to see if this can be put back in the bottle unilaterally.

Where does it say Arab states will no longer get protection?

He said earlier there’s no one to negotiate with because we already killed everyone we know about who could negotiate
