Stolen from a friend: "That train scene at the end of Back to the Future 3 feels like a good visual analogy of the US dollar / national debt. The train is the dollar. They hijack the train and get rid of the original operators, and then inject 3 logs into the furnace. The logs are like quantitative easing. Log 1 was 2008, log 2 was 2020, and we’re talking about putting log 3 in there where it starts going above the red line. There was a point of no return, which the debt train has already passed, so it’s impossible to stop the train now before it flies off the default cliff. Now everything is riding on transitioning into another system before the end of the track is reached."

We are entering an age where if you write things often enough it will become truth as AI will train on it and blind trusting dimwits will ask that AI for answers. Whoever repeats themselves the most wins.

If a foot is 12 inches, why don't we measure our shoe size by how many inches long our feet are? #asknostr
