After the 1st meeting with Pretty Impala (gf) but before our 2nd meeting she told me that she'd be running short for #rent money. Her mother was no help. So I agreed to lend her the #money. It wasn't a small sum. I wrote a promissory note for it. I lent her the money. No #interest. I just did not want this to become "next week... next week... next week..."
Today she got paid at work and repaid me. She had until Monday to do it.
Good girl! Yes, this is #BDSM too. 😉

A quotation from Kerr, Jean:
«««««
You don’t seem to realize that a poor person who is unhappy is in a better position than a rich person who is unhappy. Because the poor person has hope. He thinks money would help. I tell you there is no despair like the despair of the man who has everything.

This week I get to itch a scratch from one of my neurodivergent interests: coin collecting!
I just ordered several books for pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters so I can finally sort through some of the stuff I've had sitting in a drawer for a long time. Been needing to get books covering the 1990s onwards and going through all my quarters is gonna be a nightmare given all the special releases that have been happening since 1999
It's something that mom got me into when I was a kid since she did it for a very long time as well. Now I have coins older than my 1890s baritone horn lmao
That's a whole other story in itself I'll probably talk about some day on reels or tiktok or the podcast when I get back to recording that

Desantis funnels cash to Vertol Systems, then Vertol contracted Ultimate Air to make these flights. Payments to this vendor now total $1.565 million.
Desantis (FL) is paying for the operation, the aircraft needs to touch down within the state, ie: or Desantis will be fraudulently using the funds if that use was unrelated to the state.
Did you know that the people of Florida have paid one of DeSantis' buddy's law firms $1.55 MILLION to lose a case about "social media censorship?"

33 arrested as #global #money #laundering #service is shut down | Europol
In order to launder drug profits generated in Europe, the arrested criminals offered a service of trade-based money laundering known as the “#Black #Market #Pesos #Exchange”. 🤣
This process reduces the risk of losing money through seizures and allows for faster access to the funds.
The drug producers would provide drugs to the Italian buyers as a form of credit.
The profits generated from the sale of the drugs in Europe were then picked up by brokers, introduced into companies, and used for ordering goods such as mobile phones from China, to state just one example.
These goods were then shipped to the United States and further transported to Colombia, where they were offered on the market.
Upon being sold, the cartels such as the Grupo Armado Organizado received the cash and thus their veiled payment for the drugs provided to European sellers.

Chris Jankowski, CEO of the pro-#DeSantis group Never Back Down, documented as the “settlor” — effectively, the creator — of the #Marble #Freedom #Trust, a massive pool of cash #Leonard #Leo is using to finance conservative advocacy groups.
In 2021, the trust received $1.6 #billion from the sale of Chicago businessman #Barre #Seid’s surge-protector empire, constituting the largest known #dark #money donation in history and leaving Leo in control of an unprecedented political advocacy fund.
The role Jankowski played in developing the Marble Freedom Trust has not previously been reported, though he has for years served as a consultant for Leo’s dark money #network, which played a central role in flipping control of the #Supreme #Court and building its 6–3 conservative supermajority.

The objectives of the tax are as follows:
- It would in theory raise $3.5b in revenue over 10 years
- It would get miners to “pay their fair share” of costs imposed on local communities and the #environment
But the #tax would actually do the following:
- It would directly increase the emissions associated with #Bitcoin mining, by pushing miners out of the (relatively low-carbon intensity) U.S., into dirtier jurisdictions
- It wouldn’t raise #money, as mining in the U.S. would be uneconomical, and miners would simply choose to leave
- It would directly empower #America’s adversaries, like #Russia, #China, #Venezuela, and #Iran – by making (state-sanctioned) mining operations more profitable there
- It would eliminate the ability of Bitcoin miners to help monetize the renewable buildout in the U.S., and rule them out from assisting with grid stabilization programs that they actively participate in.

An economist wanted to see what it was like to pay his #taxes in cash - as the 6 million US households having no connection to the formal banking system might do.
The IRS certainly doesn’t make it easy and pushes people without bank accounts to ultimately pay fees to credit card processors or retailers – which is disappointing, especially since these taxpayers are likely among the poorest.

People have no idea how much they overpay for “schnitzel” at the meat shop.
After an hour’s effort, I have turned half the pork tenderloin I got on sale for $21 into schnitzel.
So, this is $11 of meat, and 3 eggs, whey leftover from making ricotta, a cup of flour, & breadcrumbs made from all my stale, frozen chunks of homemade sourdough.
This amount of schnitzel would retail for $65+.

Science has no goal. It isn't some kind of sentient being.
Science is a tool created by humans. Who have various purposes in pursuing it...
Career. Prestige. Academic power. Research money...
Oh. And externally viable truth about the world around us.
Scientists are humans. With the usual human goals.
As you might imagine their goals using science as a tool are about as twisted as the average human population.
