Lemmy be like:

“gossip site, Radar, that validates my bias?! Hell yah.

Snopes, The Guardian or other reputable sources? nah fuck off, I can’t be bothered to read more than a headline”

I’m not saying this is true or isn’t true.

But the article does credit Katie Johnson as the source and there is reasonable doubt as to whether she even exists. The only person who claims to have spoken to her is a Jerry Springer Story Producer.

What We Know About Origins of Trump Child Rape Allegations

The reason why I say this is I think it’s important to be factual even when making allegations against scum like Trump. Any false rumor we spread is another victory for MAGA and the right. It’s a way for them to convince more people that the left is evil.

This is also why I don’t trust Brave either. Any company that profits off an ad network and can change the rules whenever they want is dangerous. Even if Brave doesn’t do it now, doesn’t mean they won’t.

How can you be in talks to merge with yourself?

(I’m referring to Elon not the company. I know they have their own president and board)

In old days, but there are so many random retail investors in the market now keeping garbage stocks afloat. Same reason why Tesla is so over valued and why GameStop won’t die.

Nowadays, stocks are made of fairy dust and wishes. It’s all nonsense when fanboys get involved.

Idk if that will happen or not, all I can say is the portfolios are evenly balanced so that if one property fails, it doesn’t tank the whole investment.

I can’t advise on other assets. I can only speak to commercial real estate securitizations, which is what the article is referring to.

In commercial real estate, they mix lots of different types of properties up into portfolios and they try to balance it out so if an office building fails, it won’t bankrupt investors.

These types of portfolios are safe because they invoke less risk overall. It’s the same reason why your 401k portfolio has a bunch of different companies and not just Apple or Tesla stock.

It won’t gain value as fast as a single stock, but it is less likely to lose value overall and is a safer risk.

Actually, I tell people to watch the Big Short because they explain the securitization process really well.

But hopefully rating agencies aren’t lying about the quality of loans and intentionally underwriting bad debt like they did in 2008 but I don’t originate the loans so idk.

I work in commercial real estate. This is a normal common practice in commercial real estate. They honestly do this for pretty much every type of real estate and for as many as they can.

They securitize it in portfolios and sell off interest in those payments to others. They intentionally mix and match properties in portfolios so if one fails, there is less risk to the whole thing.

I’ve seen fast food restaurants, malls, airports, billboards, cell towers, hollywood studios, aerospace firms, law firms, hotels, apartments, everything. And yes, also data centers

This shit is bananas because I never hear the left say anything anti-Semitic.

But, i just saw a Trump supporter who was mad about Flock blame Jews for Flock.

Soooooooo yeah. The call is coming from inside the house.

Tech isn’t the problem. It’s teaching kids to think critically. It’s hard to do regardless of what device you are using and it’s next to impossible with large class sizes.

Writing things out by hand does give kids time to think in larger classes where they can’t help guide their own lesson, though.
