I've always been taught that riches decay. But it's very interesting to see that billionaires actually believe it and live in constant fear that they can lose everything in a moment.
If only we believed that about them too, instead of thinking they are invincible.

Part of Trump's shilling for Putin & his "peace" (surrender) plan is repeatedly saying Ukraine is losing. 1 example has been key city of Kupyansk where Russia advanced 3 miles in 4 mo. Ukrainia just pushed them back _twice_ that distance in 1 week & now encircles them. They ain't going anywhere.

ok so the reason money makes you stupid is that once you have so much of it, you don't have to solve problems anymore. you can pay others to take care of everything and you still get more money but you never have to think. much like a muscle, the brain gets weak when you don't use it.

I've reported on trans legislation and anti-trans actions in states across the United States for five years, including in blue states.
I distinctly remember some people getting upset at me for reporting blue-state anti-trans actions, saying that it could never happen there.
Sadly, it can.
