  • Emotionally estranged offspring of farming folk here: yeah I would not be shocked if some decide to quit while they’re ahead and don’t even bother putting seed in because there are enough cracks in the story to question whether they’ll get their usual bailout in time or with enough cash to make up for shit yields.

    Maybe some small-timers call it quits. Maybe they rent the land to someone else to farm it, maybe for real cheap. Maybe it’s a real great time for some of them there South African immigrants (white farmers) to “pick up the slack” and farm it. And heck, maybe they won’t even need the help of SA “visitors” who have been year for 15+ years already, traversing the countryside custom harvesting. Or maybe they will, and it’ll be one more way for a Big, Beautiful Partnership™ to emerge from this totally unmanufactured crisis!

    But Trump wouldn’t have done (and most definitely isn’t doing) any favors for his frenemy Musk and his poor disparaged countrymen, right?

  • He and his henchmen are probably just being literal here about the gold standard.

    “Yep so we are doing science that all but guarantees the outcome of some researched thing (of some value perceived to be stable or at least predictable, might as well be gold) is predicted to be exploitable explorable further in some way, preferably fiscally.”

    Scientific integrity, psh, it all about that dolla dolla bill y’all










  • Somewhat related note / PSA to all:

    When typing on Android 16 using Gboard (with permissions and custom dictionary turned off), the words “pedophile,” “pedophilia,” and “pedophilic” do not show up in the suggested set of words or autocorrections. It doesn’t say these are spelled wrong after you complete the word though. It simply offers no suggestions after “pedoph-” is typed and shows literally nothing when you put the cursor on the completed word, unlike any other word.

    Out of curiosity, I tried a bunch of swear words and slurs. Gboard will gladly show the N word if typed correctly for example, but not pedophile. (“Cocksucker” is the only other word I can find that has this seeming lack of dictionary presence.)

    The fuck?
