The AI bubble is a bubble, aka not tangible or sustainable gains. The AI bubble also inflates the value of the dollar. When the AI bubble pops the value of the dollar goes down, likely by a lot. These are all fairly safe assumptions so I fail to see how it wouldn't follow that the the AI bubble is propping up the dollar.

The AI bubble propping up the dollar is why a lot of people still feel secure. Once that pops and everyones retirement looks bleak from the market crash and the value of the dollar slips further making things like food even more expensive things will get more interesting. Many people stopped buying many of their non essential goods because they knew Trump is bad for the economy too, so those people are probably still treding water financially for now.

The MLS exploded in popularity lately and still stays below the NHL, the smallest of the big four leagues, and they jusssst passed NASCAR. Football is ubiquitous here, baseball and basketball are popular, hockey can be pretty niche, and NASCAR relies on certain regions and is basically dead in others. Compared to them, I think its still fair to call it not popular. When people think pro sports here they think Football, Baseball, Basketball. Thats the bar.

Perfect response to the Trump endorsement, the rest is on him and his ground team for a hectic election day for that final push.

Every single institution that was supposed to protect the US, without exception, failed miserably in the name of profit seeking.

Im guessing he's trying to pay himself out and hide what money he can before declaring Tesla insolvent.

I don't exactly have the polling data but I wonder what the expedected shift is from that. I assume the Republicans want to push Sliwas voters to Cuomo, but a Trump endorsement can also scare off democrats that may have been on the fence about Cuomo at a time when his approval is at it's lowest.

This is an explicit admission that the law is powerless against at least the president, but also likely many many more people in power. Freedom cannot exist if some people have cart blanche to trample other peoples freedoms, so now by the US's own word, they are no longer a free country.

Or the 'lone wolf' shooters who all happen to listen to the same podcasters, and hang out in the same online spaces and repeat the same dogma, and always seem to explicitly target their percieved enemies but are somehow written of as if they were just one time random acts of violence.

Feel like it should be required in High School to learn enough psychology to understand how your brain works. No one is gonna be immune to the peculiarities of the human brain, like the proclivity to narratives you mentioned, or how flalliable memory can be, but being aware those things exist helps so much. You can at lest start to identify patterns.

Democrats kept voting for cloture to prevent their own from filibustering Trumps nominations. It's not as if the filibuster has been a problem for Republicans, there's almost always enough dems crossing over for them to get their way.
