The other assholes not being quite big enough assholes to suit

On the off chance that you have a drop ceiling or some other means of doing some light wiring, I recently installed these and the feature makes for a lovely ambience. https://a.co/d/cBrNSwU

If linky no worky, search Amico 6 Pack Black 4 Inch 5CCT LED Recessed Ceiling Light with Night Light

Bonus feature: it comes with The Big Light^tm^ too. Install is 3/10 for simplicity.

Now that shit is funny. Nearly every item a zinger.

The portrait from the painter in Colorado that old Drumphy is supposedly infuriated about, replete with puffy, shiny orange cheeks and all, that’s the real coup de grace.

Insufferable tool

Executive orders’ been doing some heavy lifting of late.

We all played Risk. And what’s the rule? Never, no wait, always fight a land war in Asia.

After all, it went so well for the British. And the French. And the Germans. And the USSR. And the US…

Thoughtful and thought-provoking response.

I think we agree that the process will be a gradual one rather than a series of lightning strikes (although the rapid erosion of both hard and soft power, economic and otherwise, over the last few months is discouraging), and certainly as you point out, of the value of the dollar may not correlate with its supremacy as a reserve. Furthermore, precedent, most notably with the British pound’s dethroning as the world’s reserve currency, and subsequent resilience in spite of same, reinforces your point.

I would happily research any further specific suggestions you might have as far as hedging and diversification.

I don’t know why the downvote; I found your answer to be worthy of further study. On a very brief first encounter, Monero seems dauntingly complicated for a typical non-technically-oriented investor. Certainly seems to have its merits for those that do understand the finer points, but one of the oldest maxims of investing is have a full understanding of how the sausage is made.

Incidentally, for those whose assets are already well known to those in power, I think more transparent solutions might be the logical course of action.

Gold is certainly on my radar. Currently pondering the best possible avenue e.g. physical, GLD, miners, etc. and will certainly explore goldbacks. I imagine that could be a thread of its own.

Thanks for your response.

I never pass on the opportunity to say fuck Wells Fargo.

Thus, fuck Wells Fargo.

Furthermore, to echo a comment further down, up against the wall with those shitcunts.

Dunno if age appropriate but I like to give knives when possible.

These are the most absurdly competent $10 tool you can buy if you can stomach the source (wally world):

I have a drawer-full and they make a great (cheap) “I was thinking of you” token.

A night of listening to me snore causes folks to be charmingly receptive to those conversations. Uncanny, really.

…it’s a real PICNIC
