People in rich countries are unhappy. In the US they're truly miserable.
Sentiment fell more in the US since 2019 than any other country.
US sentiment at the 0th percentile of pre-COVID history, others generally around 25th percentile.
And our economy doing better than most!
i see why i identify as an independent
honesty, personal responsibility and integrity are in short supply presently in the USA
New Gallup poll asks "which values the country most needs today?"
Out of a list of 12 values, Republicans put "patriotism" #1, for Dems it ranks dead last - by a lot.
Dems say "equality" is most needed, Republicans rank it 11th out of 12.

В октябре к югу от резиденции Путина на Валдае, в радиусе 50 км от нее, построили еще 16 башен ПВО: всего их уже около 50.
Новые постройки формируют дополнительное кольцо обороны. Радиус кольца составляет 55 км, а среднее расстояние между позициями – около 15 км.

There is an exodus of vacation homes within the US housing market right now.
For the last 5 months, for every vacation home purchased, 2 are being sold.
These units are transitioning from vacation assets into primary residence or long term rentals.
The bigger question is what is causing Americans to unload vacation properties at such a high rate?

AirBNB had its place and time, but it’s over. Had a lovely stay at a Hyatt last night, left trash in the can, towels on the ground, and am confident my corporate overlord isn’t going to light me up with a guest review video. A professional exchange of goods for money. The AirBNB hosts did this to themselves and the platform lost control long ago.
its just bonkers the new policy @airbnb is trying to put in place. Putting the dishes in the dishwasher, taking out the trash, pulling the sheets off the bed....they are just standard things any normal person would do when staying at a house. Why wouldn't a host be allowed to say that?

BREAKING: Iran has cut off LPG exports to Pakistan after Islamabad's border closure with Iran under US pressure, making Pakistan lose more than half its LPG supply, with the price of a 12 kg cooking gas cylinder now up 56% in just days, from 4,500 to 7,000 rupees, and expected to climb further, per Reuters.
Pakistan imported about 7,000 tonnes a day from Iran. Hundreds of LPG tankers are stranded at the Gabd-Rimdan and Taftan crossings, and the Quetta Chamber of Commerce has told members to stop placing new orders with Iran.
"We did not expect this from our Pakistani friends, and did not expect them to come under the influence of American pressure," said an Iranian MP.
Bessent said he is working with Pakistan and Turkey to cut off Iran's land routes. Sealing Iran off is now cutting household fuel to its neighbours.

It's much easier to talk about wins than losses.
But you learn a lot more from your losses.
nah
"rules" change
the state can take anything of "yours" it wants
oh, and it can kill you anytime it wants, too
but, you can [almost] always flee, so you retain some amount of agency
which many CA billionaires are exercising
if @jaredkushner gate turns out to be another Russiagate I will be very disappointed.
Just because someone is corrupt doesn't mean you can make up stories about their corruption.
Looking forward to the Congressional investigations in 2027 and the presidential pardon before Trump leaves office.
