    Bitcoin remains stuck in a sideways trend

    β€œI think the reality here is that when you take a look at the Bitcoin market, we are largely doing nothing. All coins are highly correlated in their nothingness. And no surprises there. For now, though, I think we can largely expect it to stay sideways.”

    Government job reports are unreliable and frequently revised

    β€œEvery single year or we get a massive revision down in all of the job numbers that we saw for the entire year before, it was like 800,000 years ago, over a million jobs this year. So we look at these job reports, we get really excited and oh my god, it's so bullish, people have jobs. And then while you're not looking, they rug pull you and change the job numbers entirely.”

    Elephants recover from trauma in social refuges

    β€œThey feel all the vibration and energy that comes into their area, which is one of the reasons we're not open to the public, because I can't control people's energy.

    Far-right rebellion destabilized the House speakership

    β€œThe dominant political story of the year has been the 270-day-long speakership of Representative Kevin McCarthy, whose slim majority in the House of Representatives has enabled a far-right rebellion to exert more weight over the lower chamber.
