I'd like to see it dip below -100.

I know things were different way back then, but I still find it surprising that Will was able to go sit back down in his seat.

Read, learn, create, and explore.

This is presumably part of the problem here in America, and why it took as long as it did to get this many people activated and mobilized. Either way, organizers have been organizing. The movement is growing across this very large country of ours.

I love it. Have watched it three times. Cried during the last episode the first time I saw it. The book was pretty good, but I agree on the show being better.

Scavengers Reign is great.

I hope you have watched Common Side Effects. Joseph Bennett (co-creator) is also the co-creator of Scavengers Reign. It's excellent. Mike Judge is also EP and voices some roles. It was renewed for a second season last week in advance of the season finale, which aired Sunday night.

I'm in season 2 of Pantheon. It's quite good.

I'm sure they still have plenty of liquid assets to scoop up discounted stocks. Tax cuts will save conglomerates money, which they'll use for stock buybacks to inflate the worth of their stocks, which had already been picked up by the billionaires. This will reinflate their net worth.

Plus, and I don't know how or when this would be involved in the calculation of their net worth, but they're probably shorting stocks with insider info passed around Mar-a-Lago. Just a guess.

They'll be fine. The rest of us will continue to be screwed even harder. Fuck them billionaires.

With that amount of money she could not stop working now and live comfortably off of her funds for the rest of her life in the US. She is not rich.
