Trump / Musk (other than DOGE)

“Iron Dome” sounds tough.

That has always been my position as well, but nycfan was differentiating meme coins from “legitimate” cryptocurrency like bitcoin. I know nycfan is not a crypto bro so I wanted to hear her basis for differentiation. I personally see no underlying value with any crypto. At least with tulip bulbs you got a flower.

I'm suddenly having a vision of nycfan being a crypto bro like the finance bro mom from the PNC Bank ads.

This is way, way too funny to me.

Lol

I love when the kid is like "Dad, is mommy a finance bro?"

There is no underlying value in any of it. Most people "invest" in it on the Bigger Fool theory (i.e. someone will pay me even more for this stupid thing). The best theory of its value going around is that it's like baseball cards. Expensive, environment-destroying, landfill-clogging baseball cards.

What did baseball cards ever do to you?

Yeah, they're funny ads. i will say that I think they play them primarily during sports so I've seen them too much at this point.

I also like the one where something goes right for the mom and she's like, "Let's do shots!" Her husband, "Shots?" FBM, "Of milk!" I'm not sure why that makes me laugh, but it does.

I’m getting up early tomorrow am to drive home from the beach so I can watch the ceremony and soak in all the festivities. It’s, once again, Morning in America!

Wishing everyone a Happy MLK Day tomorrow - as well as Inauguration Day.

And college football championship day

the bigger fool theory is the american greed way and more prevalent now than ever. its built into every business so why is crypto any different? i bought an old farm and farmhouse last year and slowly upgrading it and have had several contractors out to get estimates. its sickening how everyone of them are raping people. heat pump was low on freon and hvac co wanted $75 a lb to replace it on top of labor. the shit costs them about $5 a lb.

america is all about taking advantage of the moment and crypto is no different. doesnt matter if its manual labor or floating currency somewhere out there in the universe you cant touch.

Still holding on to my stockpile of Gregg Jefferies cards. What is it the crypto bros say? TO THE MOON!!!!

I want to see what happens with churches. If undocumented people take refuge in churches to avoid the raids, will ICE or other law enforcement go in to get them?

We have been quietly exploring that option for some of our students.

Wouldn't shock me one bit. They always had their little secret. And the Elon stuff was just too convenient

I mean it could be the MAGA God-Emperor just trolling us butt hurt libs. I could see a scenario where Elon is telling him to say these things which will just drive the libtards mad. I do not want to be like those poor diluted bastards that screamed TRUMP WON! THE ELECTION WAS STOLEN! I mean there was nothing more pathetic than those hapless rubes over the last 4 years screaming nonsense into the void. I don't want to be like those sad sacks of shit. But then Co-President Trump goes and says some crazy shit like that and I find myself fighting the urge to want to believe him.

 

[nycfan]

A lot of opinions about what $Trump (and Trump’s likely Wild West view of eliminating the pretense of government oversight of crypto generally) means for crypto’s future.

i see that we've got some meme coin discussion going on in here...

i bought 2730 shares of DOGE back in early 2021 for $60.01 and it's now worth about $1,100.....should i keep holding onto it?

 

[dukeman92]

So DOGE was created for Vivek and Elon to cut government waste, and the first cut… was Vivek.
