Javier Milei defies all expectations again as Argentina witnesses a real economic turnaround. For those who doubted @JMilei, the results speak louder than words.
Lock up the “doctors” who did this to our children. Here are leaked Kaiser Permanente slides from the "Transgender Health Care and Policy" residency training in 2018 by Erica M. Metz, MD, Director, Gender Pathways KP San Francisco. Be prepared to be shocked. 🧵 @aboutKP @FTC…
Next week’s headline: UBER pays female drivers less than their male counterparts. Leaving out the fact women opt to limit their customer pool, of course.
Uber will let women drivers and riders request to avoid being paired with men starting next month in the US
Hahahaha this is an incredible tweet
Waymo is a godsend for working parents. Need to hand off the baby between meetings? Put them in a Waymo and send them to your partner across town. Impossible before now. Really grateful we have this technology 🙏
Dramatically overused. In most cases you should be limited to structures not districts. Its main de facto purpose is as a tool of NIMBYism. Need an alternate approach to defangs the historic preservation commission type commisariates.
What do you think of historic protection in general? Or Savannah, GA in particular?
If I had 37 acres of land that wasn’t visible from the road and I was planning to build a “family compound” that I had no intention of selling anytime soon, I’d probably just build the damn thing without telling anybody.
Chicago taxpayers getting hosed at the water department. How does one have a $67,000 salary but $230,000 in overtime.
I'm visiting one of those small, elite towns full of wealthy people. The town looks the same as it did 20 years ago when I first visited. No new buildings. Same tired, boring businesses. Unsurprisingly, young people are a rare sight. The older I get, the less I value…
When a concert purports to raise funds to help Palisades fire victims but instead funnels the $100m raised to Democratic NGOs at what point does this constitute fraud?

Yes, I used to talk people who told me they'd already rebooted through the reboot process one step at a time so they didn't realize where this was going until we got to the final step. Because usually, they hadn't rebooted and wanted to "speed things up" by getting me to their…
This is what real resistance looks like. Not protests or petitions, but building alternatives that prove government systems are unnecessary. Spooner didn't ask permission. He didn't wait for reform. He simply demonstrated that private enterprise could deliver superior service…
If you find yourself declaring "animals do it" as a justification for any kind of human choice or behavior, that's a very good indication that you're on the wrong side of the argument. Animals cannibalize each other. They eat their own shit. They kill and abandon their young.…
Monogamy is a man-made illusion sold as morality. Polygamy is nature. Animals do it. Ancient kings institutionalized it. Entire cultures built legacies on it. But now we shame it while secretly cheating, lying and juggling side pieces,pretending monogamy makes us evolved.
For a country that prides itself on freedom, America certainly isn't free to build places like these.
It's surprising, how many people are suprised by Milei's economic success. Free-market economics has always worked, when given a chance. I agree that the surprise is how politically savy he has been and how receptive the Argentinian people are to him reforms. Lots more work to…

New apartments in Valley Park are good. The constant use of tax subsidies is bad. bizjournals.com/stlouis/news/2… @ShowMe
The Mayor’s CFO said WHAT to reporters?!?! The Mayor tried passing a property tax hike last year and got no/zero/nada/zip (ie not a single fucking one) yes votes for that property tax hike. I was there. You remember the first time a Chicago Mayor’s proposal goes down 50-0.
Chicago CFO Jill Jaworski yesterday told Bloomberg News that the city "will likely seek to raise property taxes" in next year’s budget to address a looming deficit and help close the gap in the 2026 budget package. Raising property taxes before the mayor election?! Yikes
Democrats and the news media have denied that illegal aliens are getting government paid for benefits. Well, apparently there are Democrats in 20 states who not only believe they are getting these benefits paid for by the federal gov, but they want these benefits to continue.
JUST IN: 20 states are suing the Trump admin to KEEP taxpayer-funded benefits for illegals They want illegals to get Head Start, healthcare, tuition, & more But Democrats just spent months insisting illegals weren’t getting taxpayer funded benefits…
Was online sports betting a mistake? I think we all know the answer to that question!
Just a few years ago, placing a (legal) bet on sports typically meant booking a flight to Vegas. Today, it’s often as easy as picking up your phone. Business is booming … but at what cost? Our new video considers the arguments.
George Steinbrenner would fire everyone at this point, including the batboys and ticket-takers. But that’s the difference between seven World Series championships and coasting on two from a long-ago era. Pride and fire versus clock-watching apathy. #STLCards #ForTheLou
