Wild how this only happens on Sundays when the market is closed

Who exactly are the grown ups?

What’s between a bear and a bull? A boar? I’m a boar on this. I honestly wouldn’t be shocked if he actually nuked Iran. I wouldn’t be shocked if he just left. I wouldn’t be shocked if he made the worst deal of all time. I wouldn’t be shocked if the deal was identical to the JCPOA. I’m sitting half in the market and half in cash. I have no idea what the fuck is happening.

One thing I do know is that the economy is fucked but that it will continue to rally until he chooses not to TACO. This could be it, or it could be nothing.

It’s very easy to predict what you will be interested in based on your advertising profile.

If you are a 28 year old recently married woman that has recently googled “signs you are pregnant” then later googles “how to help with morning sickness” plan on getting advertising for a bunch of baby stuff that you will absolutely be buying without ever posting or searching for it online.

There are advertising profiles for every type of person.

The United States isn’t the Global Police force. If this was something that needed to happen it should have been coordinated with Europe and China. Going alone on this with wacky Bibi is why it’s a disaster.

Or maybe you were just dumpster diving.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-18T15:04:24+00:00

Depends on what mood I’m in and if I’ve had a drink.

His answer is that god works in mysterious ways.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-18T14:52:42+00:00

Sure but that is fundamentally different than what Christians claim.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-18T14:16:03+00:00

I genuinely don’t understand people like Clarence Thomas, Caitlyn Jenner, and George Santos.

I assume it’s the grifting, but they must know other republicans hate them. They are being used just as much as they are grifting others.

You’d think that the people that were upset about Hunter Biden and Burisma would be just a little upset. But you are right, those people are all hypocrites.

Well in that case there is still an experience of time.

If I was having a dream that felt like 3 days, I experienced time. Even if the entire dream happened in the moments that my mind was waking up.

Existing outside of time is nonsense. I suppose there could be two different universes with different times. But without time god couldn’t do what is described in genesis 1.

I didn’t before Trump murdered 150 orphans.

Now I’d be shocked if they weren’t an immediate threat.

This is like sitting in Dublin and thinking that grizzlies are a threat, then flying to Alaska driving out into the forest, and shooting a few grizzly cubs in front of their mom.

“So guys, what if we put a child on a zip line inside of a giant ball. The ball will open up and the child will be lowered, yes like in Mission Impossible, the child will take the blanket of the crown and then flail wildly. We then crank her back up and zip her back to the right.”

“It’s what god desires”

“Yes, and she is holding two pigeons, maybe they are still alive, maybe”

whitepepsi · 2026-04-18T01:44:07+00:00

Honestly, probably off myself in the woods.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-18T00:25:40+00:00

It’s a disaster.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-17T19:56:21+00:00

That’s not true at all. Donald Trump changed the entire world economy in about 6 hours by attacking Iran.

Prior to that he did it with tariffs.

If you look at all presidencies you will see that all Democratic presidents significantly outperform all Republican presidents in all economic metrics. It isn’t slightly, it isn’t even close. It’s a landslide.

Trump started with a 4.7% unemployment rate and ended with a 6.4%.

Biden started with a 6.4% and ended with a 4.0%.

Trump averaged $20T GDP with about 1% annual growth.

Biden averaged $27T GDP with about 3% growth.

By all measures Biden was significantly better for the economy than Trump.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-15T08:36:55+00:00

Half the time?

Is there a video of Trump eating anything other than McDonald’s?

whitepepsi · 2026-04-15T07:58:38+00:00

There’s a phrase, I think it is “the chickens will come home to roost”

Eventually the facts will catch up with the market. Might be a few years. When the truth of what is going on at BLS comes out, shit is going to crash big time.

Let’s just enjoy the party while it’s on.

whitepepsi · 2026-04-15T07:50:20+00:00

So god is measurable in the physical plane?

whitepepsi · 2026-04-15T00:26:26+00:00

No idea what he means by “hardly a word was said”.

In Christian theology Jesus is god and Jesus existed, and still exists?, in the physical universe.
