**TLDR: Aug 15'25 $TUR $30 Put Market to Open tomorrow morning if trading allowed and here's why:**
* Political unrest amid jailing political opponents
* Just today opposing party leaders announced widespread boycotts - 50m+ people total cohort size
* Turkey's current financial system is flawed, they rely on high interest government bond sales to finance USD-TRY imbalance
1. **Analysis of Current Reserves:**
* As of March 2025, Turkey’s total (gross) foreign exchange reserves are approximately **$85 billion**.
* However, most of these reserves consist of swap agreements and external debts; the actual (net) reserves are likely close to zero or even negative.
* The truly available (liquid) reserves for rapid intervention are, at best, around **$20–40 billion**.
2. **Activities That Could Rapidly Erode Reserves and Their Effects (Data Supported):**
The following scenarios could rapidly deplete the reserves in the short term:
**Mass Bond Sales and Foreign Exchange Purchases**
* If 30 million people convert an average of **$500** per person from TRY to USD, it would result in a reserve loss of **$15 billion** in a short time.
* *(30 million people × $500 = $15 billion)*
• **Mass Withdrawal of Deposits from Banks (Bank Panic)**
* The total deposits in the Turkish banking system amount to approximately **$450 billion**.
* Even if only **5%** of these deposits are withdrawn in a panic (about **$22.5 billion**), it could deplete more than half of the reserves in one go.
**Tax Payment Refusals and Consumer Boycotts**
* Turkey’s annual tax revenue is approximately **$150 billion** (2024 budget).
* Even a short-term **20%** tax boycott (a loss of about **$2.5 billion per month**) would create a serious budget deficit within a few months.
**Boycotts of Critical Sectors such as Energy and Transportation**
* Turkey’s monthly energy imports average about **$5 billion**.
* Even an extra crisis cost of **20%** in this area could result in an additional monthly reserve loss of **$1 billion**.
**Widespread Labor Strikes**
* A general strike lasting just one week in Turkey would cost approximately **$4–5 billion**.
* Strikes lasting several weeks could rapidly deplete the reserves.
👉 **Total estimated short-term reserve loss (within one month):**
It could be around **$20–40 billion**, which is nearly equivalent to all of Turkey’s actual liquid reserves.
3. **Timeline Scenarios for Collapse (Supported by Figures):**
🔴 **Aggressive Scenario (Full Bank Attack and Demand for Foreign Exchange):**
* If **10%** of bank deposits are withdrawn, it would create a cash need of about **$45 billion**.
* The current liquid reserves (assumed to be around **$30 billion**) would not be able to meet this demand.
* The economy and banking sector could collapse within **7–14 days**.
🟠 **Moderate Scenario (Partial Capital Outflow and Consumer Boycotts):**
* Demand for foreign exchange, tax losses, and reduced consumption would push the monthly reserve loss to around **$5–10 billion**.
* The existing reserves could be depleted in about **2–3 months**, bringing the economic crisis to a critical point.
🟡 **Controlled Scenario (Strict Capital Controls and External Financial Support):**
* Capital outflows could be limited to **$1–2 billion per month**.
* With IMF or external support (for example, **$10–15 billion**), the endurance of reserves could be extended to **6–12 months**.
I think this will lead to a government shutdown or change of power in the end. I don't see a humane way current government regaining back control without going bankrupt. If they do, it will be through terrorizing their own people and hijacking their bank accounts and other assets. If you make money out of this, I will suggest you sell when you see decent profits and buy yourself something nice. Be quick to exit this one.
EDIT: Turkey just BANNED short selling on the Istanbul Stock Exchange for one month.
When short selling is banned, you know that BIG TROUBLES are always right around the corner.
Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Turkey used a stunning $27BN in reserves to stabilize FX. Given recent reserve losses (USD 27bn), there is already large-scale short-term damage. I would sell TRY fiat for BTC now... | r/wallstreetbets | post | r/wallstreetbets | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2TmxOYTFoRVdCdmJNQjFUMWNRTTZvUVpRbV9ydXBvWGhnMi15SnotZmctSlUtbGNwN0pVb3RtZjVubGJwYUdoY0ZFZmQ4NVdRTmpVa1hPSHRCZjUwWmdBXzVkZEJFUVVJWm9DSFpzZmFVTlU9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FERFRoZXUwVVNabWUxV2s1NTUwVlJsbmcxSVBDOHlVbFVPRWZEc3ROVnZLaWFZRjBPUGpvVkNVUkdzSXdPY3RLd0p1TGc4MkcybU1OdWxaQjFocjBuQ1hVT1pQZ2ZNdDZ6d092OGhpaFlKSmEwVWN1LVh5dTVpblVTUGpBc2VEcWIyN0cyLTdDa2tpREJ0cVZUelJ3bjZKNjZ4RjRpU0EwMkRjY2stRkwyTy1FaEs1bjRab2xCTFFNb0ZJMFRidElf |
Warhorse did black magic to get these kinda graphics, I'm guessing.
I'd love to see their take on a fantasy setting.
With how addictive blacksmithing + alchemy is, I wonder what kind of magic system they'd craft.

Trading without understanding indicators is like sailing without a compass. You might get lucky, but chances are—you’ll end up soaked anyway. Pick 2–3 indicators, master them inside out, and trade long.

I was convinced to try Nutella on my toast one morning. I figured "what's the harm in giving it a go? I like Nutella on its own so this should taste good, yeah?" Well, I hated it. The taste, the texture. It doesn't belong.
But apparently everyone I have said this to disagrees with me??
Don't get me wrong - Nutella on its own is great! I love the Nutella snacks you can buy at the store.
But on bread or toast??

I see so many posts here that are related to BDSM or other sort of dom sub kinks and I feel like we need to bring old school sex back. What do i mean by old school sex?
I am talking about a man and woman in bed with her legs wrapped around him and both of them being a moaning mess. Just pure intimacy passion, a dick sliding through the soft wet grippy walls of a pussy. Holding each other's hands and kissing each other as he keeps driving in and out. Using her shoulder to grab onto and give him more leverage to drive into her as they get closer and closer to orgasm. and when they do hit orgasm the girl wraps her legs even tighter around him as she lets out her orgasmic moan while the guy slides in as deep as he can and releases everything in his balls and grunts and groans as his cock twitches in her grip and warmth.
This is the kind of sex that I want again. A man that would rather clasp his fingers with me rather than choke me. A man that would rather wrap his hands around me to get me to glue with him than pull my hair.If you are the kind of man who would rather have old school sex then do text me.... Lets talk about what we would enjoy together and more. Please do write a little bit about yourself.

Given the success of the previous MAAMs ([see here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/search?q=maam&sort=new&restrict_sr=on)), let's keep this rolling.
The principle is simple: ask anything you'd like to know about Monero, especially the dumb questions that you've been keeping for you every other days, may the community clarify it all!

1. XRP acts as a bridge currency between banks and financial institutions, crypto aims to replace the very thing!
2. XRP does not use POW or POS so nothing in it for community, so everyone who praises are like cult followers similar to that of shitcoin.
3. Transaction speed is faster for XRP(since centralised) so does solana and dozens of eth L2's.
4. XRP has 100B pre-mined, 47% circulating/ dumped on retail owns 53% in escrow accounts, which is worse than shitcoins! | r/solana | post | r/solana | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2SEhYR0hQRWE2NDRhUWRQOFlPNExMUmdVRTRJUzJiWGFiSC0xMXNsRFJXR2dmbE5zUk9ieDJGNzcxbEhSU25zNHZGNWp4d3Eya2F1MTQySFVZVUVkNHc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEclo2aEJpVnBlTlBuT2lxam1xMXdJUjZma294RWdQQlgzeFF1VjRHWUlRRnBwREVrZmVVUUF3R3JjNFJ0YjNUc3dWVmNTQ3VsdTZqUHVPLVo5UnotNTdmRDh4OFpXTEVDOUNNV0lycEw4VncxaUZEcWZIR2tlbWlRc3FZWEZLU0xiQjZjRlo1d0tuZGMwc01lQUtockQ2NWJ3TXVfY3FmQmxHRkN3ZGtFaERsRG9UUXllTXAyZnlqa1dEWkYtRkJH |

This is neither a rant nor a doomsday post! I love the UK with all my heart and find a spiritual connection to this place. I visited it first in 2019 and have been living here since 2021. I have seen a huge surge in the cost of living since then. The once affordable, efficient trains are exorbitant now. They seem to be a luxury and most of the time run empty. The National Express has pumped their prices too. The council taxes are increasing every year by a huge margin and the taxes are not easier too. What do you think is the future if the current trends continue? Will it be alright??
Edit 1: a lot of people seem to agree with the emotion. Thanks for the updates and sharing your thoughts. I seriously hope it gets better for us and completely agree that this is a common phenomenon across most of the developed nations. | r/askuk | post | r/AskUK | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2b2hNdFhONm10d2JNeFdCZC1tQUltZUNkbEJTT3k4cTdzSXRzNnVaNGFCMUlHWGw4Z1k5V2NaYmFyYVBzd3ZNeVJFSmJsR0FiNElMUDItR1I2b1NqWlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEQUt1XzRQTzVydFlVMEh3MkhSMm0xd2czQ3MzSzBYVkg1eFd0MUI1aDNaeHo2eEpTUWg4WFFjeGI2V2ROT1QyUUFOdHJUUU1QSGtwRFVyTU5BN0ZuaEMwdXRCc3BPM2pZOG9FS0J0WVJBckwyWkFkUWR1a1FxSGJDdXZGNDlzdFJpMy1DUVo4RDQxcXJGd0dnTTN2Wk14b0VaXzdHYjFkV2E1cFo5eEc1TGp4Z3BCTFF1THpfWDFpN0had1FodVda |

I am a world traveler. I have lived in countries for months and years. I have been in many airports and many different kinds of streets. A duffel bag is a superior travel bag, here's why:
A roller suitcase is only convenient when you're pulling it in an airport. Lifting it anywhere else is cumbersome and awkward. The wheels also announce to anyone listening that a tourist is in the area.
A duffel bag forces you to balance your luggage. You can walk silently through the streets. You have 2 end pockets to use for dirty clothes. It looks less enticing to thieves.

It's no secret that BlackRock has been expanding into crypto since 2020. BlackRock is a huge asset manager and they've always been interested in Ethereum, that's the truth. ETH has been facing criticism from all sides, and the price dropped 40% this year. Coincidence? I think not.
Robbie Mitchnick worked at Ripple and joined BlackRock in 2018. Since he joined, he has played a major role in BlackRock’s expansion into crypto. A few days ago, Mitchnick said that the negativity surrounding ETH is exaggerated, and spoke about Ethereum’s potential in tokenization, stablecoins, and of course DeFi.
BlackRock always had ETH bulls, and they are deeply invested in Ethereum ETFs. Robbie Mitchnick suggested that adding staking could really increase the appeal of Ethereum ETFs.
Here's the reality: institutions and corporations are accumulating ETH while the media is shitting on its performance. Everything we see about Ethereum in the articles is mostly lies and usually it's the exact opposite. That's why we should always do the opposite of what the media says and that's why I'm bullish on Ethereum. But be warned!! As soon as we start seeing positive sentiment around Ethereum, that's when we should start to worry.. because that means rich ETH holders will start the dumping phase.

So I've been doing some reading, and after asking in this sub yesterday I realized that monero suffers from inherent scalability issues due to too large block size, however Grin solves this because it has more compact blocks and is overall more efficient due to the cut through feature, while maintaining privacy and fungibility due to the mimblewimble protocol. Grin has also potentially infinite supply which is another advantage of Monero, but its supply model is different. at least, this is what chatgpt tells me (https://chatgpt.com/share/67e16c02-eb48-8000-820f-0971849ef5dc).
Could Grin do what Monero can't and be a widely used privacy coin? What do you guys think?
Personally I think Monero is a step in the journey towards ending fiat but clearly not the final destination. A better alternative is needed and Grin might be the next step in the journey, and perhaps even the final. Let's hope. | r/monero | post | r/Monero | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2WFFlenpkbmtRR3NsZ0xzTTB2RG43aHdNZXdvc3M3ejA2YWlwOVphaWU0LXJVS3BSaG1YaHBBVDRaS3pFajY1RDc1dHBPSkVfSVZlUGdGZ1EzUHJiZmpheHRfaXRvMUhCWlVqZ1M1ZVRPbE09 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEeWhVXzJaeDZUeDNzaXJ5RGZzOUc5M1dPRHQtdzlxZWpFODNEMnV6MXdsMFN4bW5DRmljZ20zTTVVRUFGdzlxclJpYU1rdm9jUnpVajdfWXJvTkhUbmlOUFdsZWlpUGNnQU5mSjRUQlZaRUtjaVNzN3FuNndFaHo3cU1zWURDM21fcnFJLVdJaDdOeDhfdGh1N0N2NUhjT0RGZFc5eV9zSV9FU0xnZGZWekFqc1F5NWNrTmZhMHVsbUhIbDVsQlBYOVlGckZsM3g0NVQyZDFCMm4yZFdhdz09 |
Idk why people were so mad about the VIPs in Squid Game. Like yeah, their acting was kinda weird, but honestly? That’s exactly how I imagine billionaires acting in private—awkward as hell, cringey, and completely out of touch. People expect them to be these super-slick evil masterminds, but nah, most of them are just weird rich dudes who have no clue how normal people talk.
They’re sitting around, making shitty jokes, betting on people like they’re nothing, just vibing in their little bubble of power and degeneracy. Squid Game was mostly about Korea’s messed-up system, but the VIPs? They felt way too real.
So yeah, people can roast the acting all they want, but I think it was actually perfect.

Yeah so this is going to get me many comments, but I’m still going to try.
I believe that, despite Trump being a total idiot and alienating our allies, the U.S will remain a dominant global power in the next decade or so and will likely not be replaced by BRICS or any other major player. I will go down and describe why.
Internal issues: The U.S does have a problem of democratic institutions being worn away, however these are mostly short term issues that can be fixed or majorly adjusted by a more democratic administration post Trump, especially since Trump himself won’t be in office forever and republicans have no real replacement post-Trump. America falling into civil war is also (IMO) nonsense due to how comfortable most people’s lives are.
Lack of replacements: Let’s face it, this is the main crux of my argument. There is no real replacement for the U.S even if it gets weaker, even ignoring its sheer number of alliances and its overwhelming cultural influence (only matched by Japan, an American ally)
1. Europe is far too divided and too buerecratic to pose a reasonable economic challenge to the U.S, and militarily it has decades before it can catch up, also has very poor demographics and immigration.
2. China’s demographics are extremely bad due to the one child policy and they are already depopulating.
Not only this, but de-dollarization is incredibly unlikely. China’s currency is too weak to replace the dollar, the USD being the worlds reserve currency is held up by its navy, and Europe has all these issues with the added fact they have no willingness to replace the dollar
To CMV, I would like a fairly realistic way that America would be dethroned from the world stage as a major global power. | r/changemyview | post | r/changemyview | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2ZjVwMnRScUxlZkNOR25melhMaFJ2dDZhUE90QjJ0TTNlVkdsZ21MVWVhNjJiNzVPVnEtZHRQZGVZaEowQ1k3NTZVMHZOOUJ3N1dTUU9UcExRNGU2TGswaE9od080ckt4RTZkV2FYUGc2R2s9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEM0hJSEN0WW5ENmNxZS1qbGljdGQwa1Vwa2pJenBhWU1lMWg2cHM0d19tWDRRbTRoVFFVWjAtbzhteUxQZUUybkRsejFEYktlTXNiOHYxTEg2SnJKc2dLMzUtM2tWdnVFZlYxVktiaElQSGI4TV9zS25QN042UEx2SGlQT0hXbXJnRUdHeG9fbURWa0tSMUNHeTJmZFZXS1BEZ01pSWRnTGNJTk9GQWhiZ3VtMnRNOHJhb09UWkJHTGFDOEw0S2JmY29MWk1EMGVHOGNYTldTdTIyU0RDUT09 |

Even though im a sub and kinky, i am not into CNC. I am very much willing and wanting🫶
Not into married/taken guys, even if you’re in an open relationship.
Show a pic of yourself if you want to chat 💕 and if you plan to send a dickpic, at least tease me with a bulge first 😇 I have pics and can ofc verify. Love receiving voice notes and such as well, we can exchange those or call once we’ve chatted a bit?

I’ve enjoyed sleeping on the floor since I was young. The ground will always have a consistent texture to it and the mattresses even couches sort of degrade in comfortability. A few months ago my mom bought me a new mattress for my apartment, but I haven’t used it at all. Obviously not every floor but most carpet and wood is preferable to the memory foam mattress she bought me. It’s one of my pet peeves when people buy expensive stuff for me that I can’t do anything with. | r/unpopularopinion | post | r/unpopularopinion | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2RlRuVGtBaHdJRmNqT3RNQTU3STBYMkgzUVhBOW11VmlUdFhBSTg1dlNRb2M0MUpnSU1MTk9mWXFQeUUzdnoxYXloWExHWlk2Q3U5TW5GWUJNSF9OX0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEZThDSWlGZmFGU3c3cmtycnZNdV9Bdk8xYVZPbmR5NjM2QTB0ZzFuZ0VyWll6UkU3LWtud0RkUzc4Q1dfd3dGMFlmVmp1RHE3Z0FXb2JMSFROU2g4N1g3UDk5YnFveUh1Z3pFQUJJaHVtWGl0QTR4dHNwSzhKLVpZWVJBRmYwb2lLY3FVYXNtZ21HUkRhNzBobGpTQnVUaVIzelZSZDVlcHhNVGRBZDZtNEd1MGlBRG4wUmhWVlBiU3M0ai1selo2bUJhcm9LcjZaZy0wME5pVENNWEZLQT09 |
Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton shared her surprise Monday about a report from The Atlantic’s editor, who said he was swept up in a text message chain with top Trump administration officials on plans for an attack on Houthi rebels.
“You have got to be kidding me,” Clinton said on X, sharing the eyes emoji along with The Atlantic article.
Clinton’s use of a private server for classified emails while she was President Obama’s secretary of State was a major issue in the 2016 campaign. She was criticized by Trump and his supporters consistently on it.
Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, wrote Monday that he was invited to a group chat on Signal in which top officials debated and then discussed details of attacks in Yemen earlier this month.
Trump said he knew nothing on the report after Brian Hughes, the spokesman for the National Security Council, confirmed the message chain was authentic. | r/neoliberal | post | r/neoliberal | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2MGw3ZlY4SWZKejdEYUFMY1V5anpyd1U1WTdyaTVyREFqdlliaGQ2VC1DbGxNV0hobnNQMlJXRjdMTE1JZ3pNdVFBS3NFVFU0Y0p0Z3BabGZydnZOMXc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEZm0zdFVzcFpGX0ZnUEhfcUE0TUFGME5SeDEzZENkN1ktR1dWSS1Cbzh0LWdIelFFSXIzZnlxX2s4MDVVUmpQaUVTX21CVGdJSTg3WDlLbEZhekJBRVpvazNlQ2RBc3R2MlN5NVFrb2MtdFhTYjZHVlVpeDBmODM3d05iOTlZdUk0b3VqWmF5TTRfd201VlNzUUt3TUh6LVVpdUwwczFRX3dOYTJDMmcxbnZCajJORDAwZXVtMy0zWUlxNlU2X0hrd0lVMF8wNXJYTDdCQjNWM1lZSm5Rdz09 |
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Monday dismissed any potential disciplinary action for national security adviser Mike Waltz and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after news broke that the pair and other Trump administration officials discussed plans for an attack against Houthi rebels in Yemen on a text chain that mistakenly included the editor-in-chief for The Atlantic.
Asked by The Hill if Waltz, who apparently added The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg to the group chat on Signal, and Hegseth, who Goldberg reported shared the sensitive details ahead of the offensive, should be disciplined, Johnson responded “no, no of course not.”
“The administration, as I understand, I just was with the president in the Oval Office, just now, the administration is addressing what happened,” Johnson said when asked if he was concerned about the report. “Apparently an inadvertent phone number made it onto that thread. They’re gonna track that down and make sure that doesn’t happen again.”
Pressed on whether it was irresponsible of the top-level national security officials to talk on a text chain and not in a facility designed to safeguard sensitive information, Johnson responded: “I’m not gonna characterize what happened.”
“Clearly, I think the administration has acknowledged it was a mistake and they’ll tighten up and make sure it doesn’t happen again,” he added.
The White House has sounded a similar note when it comes to their confidence in Waltz and Hegseth, saying the president still has faith in their pair’s ability to carry out their roles. | r/neoliberal | post | r/neoliberal | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2VXZGM0RJbkJxUTNPN1dFWnI5YVVhSEVRX0I4S2R0ODdBd1FlbWhGMFlrd0pCckdsUjBPRjRicnMwUGI5WmVMU29HS3poQWFuUmpKa3VtZTA5WTF3cnc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FESkZoVG9mak4tNjhnYWtiRU5XUjZiRHdvU1g0d0VWalNRSnRWNTFZS2lYWVMwM2JoOWtTWHhYemQxbjc5RXRjcXhJeElWd294NXNUVW5IcVg3WjEzaHo4OW10T1dWSDZWQTdBY2hiU2otd1RjbjhxdEJ1bm44LV9QOUhPNlVmUHJzV0Q1V2pzY1dkaHl1cWJ2UzlfVWVUeFVyS0p0ektYdmlwcEU3UzNGSlR4ejNwWHdhZU9wQVgyUlBGeUZQSWgy |

As has been [recently](https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/) [reported](https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03/24/us/trump-news#hegseth-classified-war-plans-group-chat), Pete Hegseth recently texted the plans for an American strike in Yemen to a Signal group-chat that somehow included the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg. Doing his part for information security, Goldberg did not disclose that this had happened until after the strike had been carried out, and when he did, did not share the details of the plans.
Using a commercial messaging up to share sensitive information about American military operations is an enormous breach of information security, and, as many in the linked articles have opined, this kind of breach could have harmed the lives of American intelligence and military personnel.
Given the current state of the government, I imagine that Hegseth will walk away from this with little more than a slap on the wrist. But he should be investigated, and, if found in violation of the law, tried and sentenced for what is, at best, egregious carelessness toward those Americans whose lives depend on his leadership.

I knew that when you take custody of your keys you need to be as careful as you could possibly be. Only now did I understand why you need to be careful.
I recently moved by BTC from an exchange to a hardware wallet. I bought a metal plate from a company that provides private key storage products. You are meant to punch a sequence of 4 numbers for each of your 24 words according to the BIP 39 wordlist.
I had done so but I didn't realise I made errors on 2 of the 24 words. I had previously written down the words on a paper provided by the company. The company also provided matches which are intended to burn your paper with after you are done transferring your private keys to the metal plate.
Last night I was going to burn the paper but instead scribbled out my 24 words and ripped the paper into pieces before throwing it into the trash. Today I wanted to test my wallet by reseting it and accessing it with my 24 words which I was sure were correct.
I was in complete horror when I saw that my 24 words were wrong. I ended up digging through my trash and spent around 5 hours trying to place the barely legible scraps in in order to read and access my wallet with.
I knew the risks but I was still careless to record my keys properly and had I burned the paper I would have lost all my bitcoin forever. Please don't make the mistakes I made and be extra careful with self custody. | r/bitcoin | post | r/Bitcoin | 2025-03-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2eGFuWGFUYXdlVlNEX0EtNlhHcG9MWVRZTS0xaVhnY1dOUzltS3Nac0NwTUxVT0ZDRDRvMTBpejJnRVlkRGdjNVRHV0hwWnNzMlIzSldvNV81YzFJSmc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEWVhUYWVnWFZBbFJvaVpNUnZaQU0yYzFNQ2I0dC12anhFVEYyS0N4WUZzTXd4Q0RjMHZHV0luRTcyVFctWFAwa3JQMzBEaWxaYmJBRnZkZ2FHQ2FWR0VFcHZyTGF4MW1VdGNiMjItUGVTalRxblhvNnpxQ2Fyd0pvaHE4VFcyelJkVzNCNV9Pb1dJRGU1bXRUQm16cGJkcGFaU3RQb1k1MFFDQzY2YUkydDRvPQ== |

Today around 5pm I got text messages from our great nextdoor neighbor who said that a trampoline came flying in a storm and damaged our fence/barn behind our house.
I accessed our security system via my cell phone and found out the trampoline came from the neighbors across the street (NAS). We are not friends with NAS but up to this point have had no problems with them.
I inspected the damage, our fence was destroyed, almost knocked flat. The trampoline hit the barn so hard it dented the metal walls and broke two panels on the garage door. There were all sorts of other minor scraping along the sides of the barn.
As I was surveiling the damage, the husband NAS came walking up the driveway. He did not appear concerned and more annoyed than anything. I held our broken gate open for him to enter the yard and look at the damage with me.
After reviewing the damage together he asked me what I wanted to do about the damages. I was still a little shocked and said well your trampoline caused the damages, you are responsible.
I'm guessing the damages between 5-10 thousand dollars. The fence was decorative aluminum to appear like wrought iron and the damaged section was 4-5 panels and cost us approximately 4 grand three years ago. The garage door was insulated was around 3 grand two years ago. I have no idea how to estimate the cost to repair the dented, scraped, and damage metal walls of the barn which again is only 2 years old.
NAS said well it's all damage to your property you should put all the damage through your insurance. I was again shocked and incredulous at the audacity of this person.
I told him, I'm an attorney (I actually am in my state). Your failure to secure the trampoline caused it to fly into my yard and destroy my fence and damage my barn. I'm not putting a claim on my insurance (I don't want my premius to increase). I have great insurance and an umbrella due to the ponds on the property, and have a separate rider for the barn just to be safe. Due to my profession I made sure I have great insurance.
I told him I can either get quotes to fix the damage that you can pay or you can make a claim against your homeowners insurance.
He said "Well I'm not paying cash and not making a claim against my insurance. This was an act of God."
I said to him, ok, I'm sorry you see it that way. My firm sues around 200 cases per week (not a brag, a fact). Suing one more next week will not be difficult.
That is when NAS finally agreed to put his homeowners on notice and exchanged his phone number with me. Several colleges and my mentor said he probably never put the trampoline on his insurance and an unreported trampoline can lead to cancelation of NAS homeowners insurance.
AITA for insisting NAS pay for the damage caused by their trampoline flying onto my property, one way or the other? | r/amitheasshole | post | r/AmItheAsshole | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2U0d2MXI0bkVDN3dRcndpVVh5a0FCRm9ObnFVZWFMVU40c0ROZDNlSXdtRmFPYjBfbXNBQlhMeUpQamRGVm8zNEFnVVVfV2FuajZyTzFUTHNKd0VBeFE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FETXRHVWp5Zm0tM1NDRHl5MlFuTURyMFZKR1hrUnVYVldPU3Qza3JyQkx2blYzNkZwNm9FQlRmaFNvSk1HdkxhQTFrV1plQTY3UEpDYmRnSEN0aXJlaEx4ZzJJSXp3OWpUSHBVX0JqYmF0MkFVaDJZR2VQc1dmNUtkeDhScVROc2xIMmRVOURoR1l4Wkl3Zmt0MXBibDFJQmFLSWdYUS1kdmlXOWRCQ290WjFCcGpZU3ZRZE51NXZIZXliTEY5aHhkYVJwMWdKMTBxaW8zaXQ1ME5FT1R1UT09 |

I’ve been hearing a lot about this show so decided to watch the first season with my wife, then a few episodes of the second. My wife loves it. She was hooked from the very beginning. But for me? Feels like I’m watching paint dry.
The characters lack any depth, but sure a couple are a bit quirky. There’s some mystery they’re trying to solve in the undercurrent, but you give me blue balls for long enough eventually I’ll just lose my boner.
I’m not saying the show sucks. I’m just saying it’s boring. And sure, there are relatable parts and it gives a unique spin on what life feels like for a ton of us. So many wise words that could be used to describe the art form that is Severence. But at the end of the day all I hear is Charlie browns teacher but stuck in a loop. | r/unpopularopinion | post | r/unpopularopinion | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2Q1dVNGxwbkU4NVZQb2VjSW5BUWRZUnpmTWs3aUVRTnpuY2YwQXotakNWdHRBdTNfcFNQa2RTUURkY0VIb1pnOUZVWjRGWjd2N2xHVGd3a1AxVjhLYWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEcmpwRGtFVUtpdlNCNmJUYjNtOHpab2Zod2dGa0x0X25ud1IyRGNJcDV1X3lxU2dKSG00WDZ0RlVuMnk5MmtGeUN4X29hN3pvcHA0RjFUM1FVajl1QlZLTllxQVQxUnc5TmxoTVRCZVdiQmxLTkNDOWpaR2hPNmFyR0FHb1VWOEJ6dDB6LU1NN0l5MGhxSnQ4Q0Q3a20tNktycHVtLWVZSGlsdTJhS09ZMjBNb0NSQUhGcmZZZ0FwSnVvZWtnQ0Vr |
Does anyone else from a regular working background get sick of the question “are you looking for a house yet”
I have been nonstop saving for 4 years and I am not close to a deposit. 10% of an average house is a crazy amount of money to save when chicken breast in Asda is now £6 and butter is almost £4
I used to laugh and say “should have started that ISA when I was 5 right?”

I was raised in a family oriented household so I grew up close with my cousins and other extended family members my age.
After the following years, we grew, had our own lives but the bond was still the same if not stronger.
Some of these members settled down and had a family of their own. While I am close with their kids, having my own I feel is not for me. I don't think that I want to have that responsibility, or atleast not yet.
Since I am single, have a low maintenance lifestlyle, childfree, have a stable job, some passive income and extra money I try my best to be share my blessings to everyone including to the younger generations of the family
Fast forward to last weekend, we celebrated my grandmother's birthday so it was kinda a big deal and nearly every family member's gonna be there. With that in mind I prepped some goodiebags filled with chocolate, candy, and some cookies. I also baked some extra just incase more kids attended the reunion than planned (family friends) as a separate set of goodiebags, which includes 3 assorted cookies.
After the day ended I handed every kid a goodiebag to take back home. Every one was happy and appreciative with the gift, so I thought. My cousin's stepdaughter, 10, approached me complaining that why is her goodiebag smaller than her younger sister. Luckily there were 2 extra cookie bags. But she complained that she wanted chocolate and candies too like everyone. But I said if she had more cookies than anyone with 12, and if she want she can trade some of her cookies with her sister or ask to share. She said she didn't want to and said since she's older she deserves the extra cookies as well as the other goodies.
I said and couldn't do that, and I promise her that I would give her some next time. She started crying and my cousin, her stepdad, came to try to quell her. I explained the situation and apologized. He understood and took the kid away as well as the extra packs of cookies I planned to give her.
That evening, my cousin's wife called me and told me that I was dick and accused me of mistreating her daughter just because we aren't blood related. And said that wasn't the only time I treated her differently. Called me some profanities, cursed me and hanged up before I can speak for myself.
Admittedly, I DO treat her differently, Initially, yes, it was because we weren't related but after a few years it was because of her attitude and personality. She's super spoiled, entitled, rowdy, nosy, and just plainly misbehaved.
BUT what happened on grandma's birthday was an honest mistake, with her personality, had I known my cousin planned to bring her which he normally doesn't do, I would have given exactly like her sisters and the other kids to avoid the drama.

Spent the last few weeks testing Solana RPCs for NFT stuff, bots, dashboards, etc. Here's my personal breakdown of Helius, InstantNodes, QuickNode, Ligma, and Triton:
**🥇 Helius – The all-in-one Solana dev toolbox**
If you’re building anything on Solana and want prebuilt tools like NFT APIs, token portfolio data, or real-time webhooks — Helius makes life so much easier. It basically gives you indexing and infra in one. Their DAS API is 🔥 and webhook system is a game changer for reacting to mints, transfers, etc. Performance is solid and scales well.
**🥈 InstantNodes – Fastest for heavy data & smart routing**
This one surprised me. InstantNodes uses a hybrid setup where light RPC calls go to shared nodes, and heavy ones (like big account scans or getProgramAccounts) get routed to beefier backend nodes. It means everything stays snappy even under load. Great for dashboards, bots, or any app hammering the RPC. Support is via Telegram, and while it’s helpful, it doesn’t feel very “enterprise” — there’s not much in terms of dashboards or monitoring tools. Also, no free tier — plans start around $499/month.
**🥉 QuickNode — reliable, polished, and great for multi-chain apps**
QuickNode’s biggest win is how easy it is to get started — the dashboard is clean, you get 10M free credits monthly, and it supports multiple chains out of the box. Perfect for MVPs or wallets that touch more than just Solana. Performance is solid, though if you're doing anything latency-sensitive or Solana-specific (like racing mints), you’ll probably want to upgrade — the free tier isn’t super snappy, and some Solana features (like Streams) require writing JS filters or paying for add-ons. Still, it's very dev-friendly and scalable if you're not doing ultra low-latency stuff.
**⚡ Ligma — built for degen botters and mint snipers**
This one’s designed for raw transaction speed. They claim up to 6,000+ TPS, and they partner with validators to help your TXs land faster. In testing, it absolutely gives bots an edge in congested moments like mints. You get gRPC support, direct IP access (which cuts latency even more), and high TX throughput even on shared plans. But it’s definitely not polished — docs are barebones, support is all Telegram/Discord, and there’s no real dashboard. If you’re cool with that and just want raw power for bots or sniping, it does the job really well.
**💰 Triton — premium option for mission-critical infra**
Triton feels like the most "serious" option out there. Their infra is built to never go down — they use multiple regions and providers, so even if a datacenter dies, your app stays up. You can get dedicated nodes with super low latency (\~400ms or better), which is great for exchanges, market makers, or liquidation bots. But this comes at a cost: you’re looking at $500/month minimum, and they don’t offer fancy APIs or a free tier — it’s pure RPC. If you’re running something that absolutely can’t fail, it’s worth every dollar. But for smaller apps or solo devs, it’s likely overkill. | r/solana | post | r/solana | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2NXZtakpfeWJsYUVQa2hGbXJRMjJYTnJVdTY4dXpqa0ZWcmlHRGtnd0xaTEkwWlB2RzA0dVZySHZ2Qm5RdEppYW1nR3NRT0xLNFloYUxEYmdQVlBwWUE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEWFZTUGJIUEdLSW8zRTJHdUxvdUlqN0NJbXg4NkROamlXRm1rcVd2Skh6ckpjeXBySDVUamY5NVZzUXYzaS1ycl9sZ3Z0MXN6amtuS2xnZGhGRjB0UFBNNGVXQXhLdWdBZDVOczJkTHRuRDAxc044NmR6Z2dqR1RxSjBoUWszYWRudDdQSDdrTWp5dE5FNHNJUXU3Y2t2cFhhSjlGOGxTZU1kRE4zWTVBRUt6ZHVtWE94OWt0SG1UNDktQlZjSHRXNnVPRWpGYnlsSGZqb3U2V0E1c1JDQT09 |
TL;DR:
These scammers trap victims by giving away a "seed phrase" tied to a wallet that has valuable-looking tokens. But any gas you send to try to extract the value gets stolen by their bots.
If you're seeing more of these, you're not alone—it's a growing scam trend. Stay away from any seed phrase shared publicly. Every. Single. Time. It's a trap.
How the scam works?
I'm recently seeing a lot of comments sharing seed phrase on YouTube, X and Reddit. Let's see:
1. Bait with a seed phrase (like in the image): The scammer publicly shares a valid-looking 12-word seed phrase and claims there’s USDT or other tokens in the wallet, trying to lure people into thinking they can “steal” or “recover” the funds.
2. You import the wallet: If someone imports that wallet into MetaMask or another wallet app, they will see USDT or another token in the balance.
3. You try to transfer it out: The tokens may be on a chain like Tron, BSC, or Ethereum, and to move them, you need a small amount of the native token (TRX, BNB, ETH, etc.) to pay for gas.
4. You send gas to the wallet: Here’s the trap. Once you send any gas (BNB, ETH, etc.) to that wallet so you can make the transfer, a bot controlled by the scammer instantly sweeps the wallet, stealing the gas before you can initiate the transaction.
The real trick:
The wallet isn't yours. Even though you have the seed phrase, a bot is already watching that address 24/7. It's likely the scammer pre-funded it with fake or even real tokens to bait you into sending real gas funds.
Why it works:
It plays on greed: people think they’ve found free money.
It looks semi-legit and low-risk: you’re not giving your seed phrase, just using one “shared” by someone else.
Learn, share and stop those mfers

My dad is the type of person to schedule travel at the most inconvenient times to save the couple extra bucks you get from flying early or ungodly late. I appreciate his thriftiness (and apply some of it myself) but often he asks favors of others to support him in meeting these crazy times.
Last week he asked his partner’s father to bring him to the airport for a 6am flight. He knew he’d be back at 1am the following week and asked if I’d pick him up. He lives an hour away from the airport and his house is an hour from mine - so I’d be home around 3am if I obliged. I told him I work at 8am so to schedule himself an Uber and I’d just pay for it as a gift.
Well he landed, he had trouble with the Uber app and ended up having to book himself a more expensive last minute ride. Today he told me it was a nightmare when he landed and he would have just asked a friend to pick him up and that he was frustrated with me for not “being conventional” by picking him up.

*Edge of Tomorrow* (2014)

Crypto.com’s 70B Token Reversal: A Massive Betrayal
Crypto.com has quietly reversed the burning of 70 billion CRO tokens, misleading investors who believed the total supply was permanently reduced to 30 billion. This move is a blatant betrayal of trust, as the company previously claimed these tokens were burned forever in 2021.
By reissuing 70% of the total supply, Crypto.com has effectively manipulated market expectations,
This isn’t just unethical—it’s borderline fraud. Reversing a burn and reintroducing tokens after investors made decisions based on a supposed fixed supply is an outright violation of trust | r/cryptocurrency | post | r/CryptoCurrency | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2WlpRX01lcWt1RzJsZm1iYVAtV01rN1d5TkU1Tk4xQmVZaVRrNUhZUmh1NlpIMk9uY05UT2NrNUlCN19DSnp2aXhzbVQwVDd5QUtvNngzSkp1UHBTWkhQbXg0aURIVy1LTW8yODBoZ3o2MlU9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEMFZmU29iYzdTb1R5TllaN2VINmxDWjZYMDBma1A0eWlMR3BZVnRHMUFpbWs2WEtGRlN5WkROdUpRMDlkVkNQbUEtNW5NRFYwT0plZTFMcjdjcDFBcVNTZ0F5d2dhTU44MUNZMm1NekRZUEROZ2VzbUF1NkNJd2lTWkllVURfektqZlpqS1hQRkVCbEFoYloybEhxSy0wcHdHRTJmczQ1ZS15VlZhZE1hTXg0Vlc1UGIzVGdtdVhjcW03cXJGTnlrYlpCcF9LaEpTMHEtcWRWaDF5dTlHQT09 |
Hey, good evening, I'm posting here because it turns me on reading what complete strangers think about me, particularly the completely unfiltered thoughts of what they want to do to my body. Especially if it's someone thinking about something completely inappropriate...on the milder side, something like slipping the condom off during sex to fill me up after I've told them not to, or on the more extreme side forcing himself into my rear against my will. Forced breeding is also high up there on my kink list. As you can probably tell, I'm really into the CNC side of things. I'd love to hear which fantasies you'd prefer and any other naughty thoughts you have about using me.
I really just want to be used! Preferably by older guys or men twice my size. Share me with your friends, fuck me in front of my boyfriend, creampie me in your wife’s clothes, use me in public, force me on the street hehe. Literally down for any scenario. Only looking for online rn but open to meet up tomorrow or sometime next week if we mesh well!
I’m submissive but still exploring my bratty side as well btw. I’m down to chat here on reddit, and if we click we can move to another place. 😜😈

I personally lost my 8k position. It was all the crypto allocated funds in my budget.
I'm not sure I'll put money on crypto again I understand a bit more people saying that the environment is too scam friendly right now.
There seems to be no repercussions on anyone but SBF and CZ.
If you have anymore information or suggestion on how to stop them from scamming more people please share here.

I made the attached post few hours ago and seems lot of XRP fanboys are furious, so lets double down!
\*\*1. XRP acts as a bridge currency between banks and financial institutions, crypto aims to replace the very thing!
a. the main counterpoint here was XRP is fast & cost effective compared to SWIFT and would be a great idea to replace the existing tech with XRPL sure not a bad idea lets assume XRP somehow manages to replace SWIFT their only competitor and lately there have been some partnership rumours (ironic), but yeah lets calculate the valuation of SWIFT if it were publicly listed company...
SWIFT generates revenue by charging fees for its services, primarily per-message fees which is somewhere around 0.2$, SWIFT processed 44 million messages daily, totalling approximately 16 billion messages annually.
16 billion messages × $0.20/message = $3.2 billion in revenue.
Valuation Calculation:
Revenue: $3.2 billion.
P/S Range: 10 to 15 (industry avg.)
Lower end: $3.2 billion × 10 = $32 billion.
Upper end: $3.2 billion × 15 = $48 billion.
so hypothetically XRP should be worth 48B in mcap, but taking over a existing industry monopoly is highly unlikely.
\*\*2. XRP does not use POW or POS so nothing in it for community, so everyone who praises are like cult followers similar to that of shitcoin.
a. Validator nodes on the XRP Ledger have earned 0 XRP from the network since launch, as transaction fees are burned with no direct rewards.
b. XRPL selects who can run a node on the network.
\*\*3. Transaction speed is faster for XRP(since centralised) so does solana and dozens of eth L2's.
a. Solana and Polygon each processes 65,000tx/s which is faster than that of XRP's 1500tx/s.
b. XRPL selects who can run a node on the network, which is changing lately but with no incentive to run a node!
\*\*4. XRP has 100B pre-mined, 47% circulating/ dumped on retail owns 53% in escrow accounts, which is worse than shitcoins!
a. I've been little off on this one but what i found out was way worse...
b. XRP debuted with a fixed total supply of 100 billion pre-mined tokens created in full at launch (compare that with pumpfun shitcoins have 1B total supply).
c. Ripple’s founders (e.g., Jed McCaleb and Chris Larsen) and early investors got 20B in total, thats 20% of total supply.
d. Based on current data xrp has so far dumped 58B tokens on retail with as much as removal of 1B XRP per month from escrow. i,e 2.44 Billion dollar (based on current valuation) ready to dump on retail.
e. so far **13,698,922** XRP has been burned in fees which is 0.0137% of total supply.
\*\*5. Bonus point for all those who like to compare XRP with SOLANA and ETH!
|Metric|XRP|Solana|Ethereum|
|:-|:-|:-|:-|
|NFTs/Memecoins|($6M memecoin vol, $10M+ NFT vol)|($2.5B memecoin vol, billions NFT)|(billions in NFT/memecoin vol)|
|TVL|\~$20M|\~$10B+|\~$100B|
|Product Volume|$6M/day (memes), billions in payments|Billions/day (NFTs, DeFi, memes)|Tens of billions/day (NFTs, DeFi)|
|Revenue|\~$54,794/day)|$4M+/day|$5–10M+/day|
Most common/stupidest comment on the post...
\*The most common comment was everything is shitcoin except bitcoin! To those I would like to say... anything on blockchain that is decentralised and produces revenue annually by any means is backed by that revenue and thus not a shitcoin! eg, sol, eth and multiple other protocols!
\*The only reason I posted it on solana sub because I consider myself integral part of the solana community and rest can go get rugged!
p.s if you want me to post another thread on how much i actually think XRP is worth let me know in comments!

Jeffery Goldberg, the editor of The Atlantic Magazine, said he could be open to sharing more details from a signal group chat he was mistakenly added to by top U.S. officials that contained secret war plans.
“I get the defensive reaction,” Goldberg said during an interview with The Bulwark on Tuesday. “But my obligation, I feel, is to the idea that we take national security information seriously.”
Goldberg published a bombshell report on Monday outlining how he was added to a group chat on the encrypted messaging app that included top U.S. intelligence and military officials earlier this month relating to the U.S. government’s plans to strike Houthi targets in Yemen.
Goldberg reported he saw in a message, sent to the group by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, specific weapons systems, human targets and other top secret information before he left the chat. He did not publish the specific information as part of his report, citing national security concerns.
The White House has denied war plans were texted to the group and Hegseth on Monday denied the reporting as well calling Goldberg “a deceitful and highly discredited, so-called journalist who’s made a profession of peddling hoaxes time and time again.”
“Maybe in the coming days, I’ll be able to say okay I have a plan to have this materiel vetted publicly,” Goldberg told the Bulwark on Tuesday. “But I’m not going to say that now.”
During a hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe contended that the Signal chat in question did not include classified information. | r/neoliberal | post | r/neoliberal | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2YkJ4aHVWaWFxVm5neWV2YXZLVmIzVzZldFB6Mkh5WDRSUHdpSS1scTAtNV95QThUU2tWUURuQjBfQk1kZ19telJLd0VlaUpUbzRCai1xYVE5ZVBnLWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEVlhHNDFSalltYXBJZUdYdjhhQ2NuT0ozdE5ZVm1TMGFTSDdjaGotU05FOExDcHRGcksxSFNpM1paS2JDejltaVd0LTBxWGpCZGNfbmdMQjY1LU5HRV9NUWNsZjg2ZzZ5aFI3UUlJRjllLXdqaUtLN3JFOGY1ZzlJTkF2c2hqRy1mQ25TRGVsQ3V3OGpQQXl2dFVpTXYxRWZHZjhxcVN1VjViYTMweWNMcmtyQ1FiWlBBZ3p6eEd5WExYbnk5MmFIaTgtMEZBQnpibEtEb2RldlhQbXN2QT09 |
Even though the markets are turbulent right now we are already seeing some positive changes in the industry overall. With the new administration in America being pro-crypto I’m assuming we will start seeing more and more innovation coming from the US.
What got me thinking in this direction is [this short interview](https://youtu.be/93g0_NSrgpo) with the CEO of XION, published by the New York Stock Exchange. Not only does the interview revolve around the fact that more regulatory clarity is good for US-based crypto companies, but it also illustrates that even the NYSE is talking about crypto now, and that’s a big step in the right direction.
My guess is that all of this will push more capital toward US crypto projects like Coinbase, their L2 chain, USDC, and many others.

In the vast majority of fantasy settings humans tend to be weak, bland underdogs with short life spans. A lot of times you'll even get teased for liking them or playing as them. never the best at anything, and usually without fail, some other race has us beat at anything we could do. but i feel that's completely missing the point. if you consider an elf for example, very picky about where they live, how they live and tend to have pretty restrictive cultures in terms of whats professions and lifestyles are acceptable to them. Big generalization obviously, but i feel you get the point. and the same could be said for dwarves or most other races in general too. they all have their thing and stick to it. but in real life we live literally everywhere. Mountains, deserts, artic tundra's, tropical islands, steppes, forests, even caves. We thrive in all those environments and can hold vastly different values in relation to that, were unbelievably adaptable and diverse. depending on how *ethical* you want to be, it could take a new born human only 14 years until they can reasonably work and reproduce. how long for an elf or dwarf? Of course it varies but say it takes a dwarf 50 years until their sexually mature and able to work. in that time, the same human child could have 15 grandkids, living in a house he carved out in a swamp no other race would even consider settling. Even our short life spans would only really serve to spur our ambitions and push us forward, we'd probally even value our own individual lives less when were aware of how fleeting they are. we'd look like a swarm, infesting every corner of the world, developing, growing, learning at break neck speed. capable of doing **anything** with at least moderate success, and constantly outnumbering our enemies. even if we lose a war, 90,000 humans die, maybe 2000 elves, that's no problem at all. It would only take us like 10-15 years until were good to again, and again and again, learning each time, wearing them down with attrition, numbers and ingenuity. And of course how brutal we are to **each other** in war? imagine how awful we could be to a whole other species in a war of survival? maybe I'm way off with all this, and this is based off major generalizations in fantasy, but i feel like this particular aspect of us is never really touched on, and we should get way more credit for just how scary we are. | r/unpopularopinion | post | r/unpopularopinion | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2YjVtWE5ncG9hT2xJVXN4cUhlWUt0bGVmaXlKWEp6R1F4V3pOOUFZR0p3ejNpM01Ba2I1UnJ2WUl5STUtb2pveHFyX01kRXFVQWtrYXB5Tk4zdUx2MkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FELThGTVdNblFxN0JnYjQ5cXBabWg5eXVyaVNpU0tsdjNxTEpaTmtuMDdnaHFrbm9OUERhdWJjOTBiN0ZtaVRSR21FMmtCYVI3R3k0Z3NoLVRhdzlMQ0N6Y3FjV1Z5VzBuRVd2aUpMZlpXMy1VUkVVS2FOZWpSSGpmYTk1WFBnU2xVOXNfRVBmcUxhMHluYTEwNUtVb09ZNUt1YTdtWVk3U1F0VThka19nRW4yYVFTNDNYODVidVhpOTJmckNEbVVFUjJ3NldXY1ZseG15TXJhQnp2UjB0Zz09 |
Centralized premined tokens can and will screw you: Crypto.com is facing criticism from the crypto community after reissuing to themselves 70 billion Cronos tokens burned in 2021: https://cointelegraph.com/news/crypto-com-cro-token-burn-controversy
More evidence that the top premined and centralized tokens you see on coinmarketcap, are in reality worthless scams.
Dont just assume that top tokens are successful or better than the rest, its all just part of their scams, where they manipulate their market caps up and then change the rules to screw over token holders.
Stick to decentralized proof of work coins like BCH to avoid these types of centralized entities screwing investors and users.
This is relevant to BCH, as new users dont understand and arent educated about what differentiates cryptos like BCH from other cryptos that are premined and centralized.
Edit: This isnt even mentioning the recent news where complex blockchains like ETH and tokens issued on it are susceptible to getting stolen by added permisssions added to transactions that arent detectable by ordinary users as just happened to the bybit exchange: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/21/hackers-steal-1point5-billion-from-exchange-bybit-biggest-crypto-heist.html
the TLDR: is that the actual amount of cryptos that work and are safe to own without getting stolen or being screwed over by devs in charge is actually very few. | r/bitcoincash | post | r/Bitcoincash | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2LWYtNnBXRFVlSk5zM00wcFYwWjNwZlVfUjU1aDBBMk52dTFFVWN6dk41NEpGSk9TY19LYVM2VnktQ2c2RnBTU09zRWRSQTRvMklCcnRfQzZMYkM0elE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEY25PeFJMczFZV2t6WDU4SkpmUUx1VzF3SmlxY2NQYTB2cW04RFZLUWdZVG9aQjNsblAzbnNubFJPQ2QtaEpjWFcwSjZqUURhV3JvS09TZ1ZFSi1oMHZjckVSV29qckh6czRROUViTWhSRDFaVUJsWFVxRWdaQU1FZ3lodWNrYllES0RKYTBzRnROb3FNeWNzVTdUUkdsQ3VXTkJEUmFGMElWVmlJd09qUEhHTXYxaWxLTXVnWk5oTTNkTWVpMDA3OXA0WnVDV1dvelEwZkVzSXBiSFgzQT09 |
**Have Your Cake and Eat It Too with Background Sync**
A large usability hurdle for cryptocurrencies like Monero is sync times. Previously, you've needed to leave Cake Wallet open to sync your Monero wallet. This limitation exists because owning your keys means your device handles the blockchain synchronization. To make this process simpler, we are launching our first iteration of background sync, initially for Monero! All in the same open source, noncustodial wallet you're used to from us.
>— Reddington (@undetectedtx) [March 24, 2025](https://twitter.com/undetectedtx/status/1904243294315430192?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)
Background sync will attempt to sync all your wallets in the background at a specified interval. Our [documentation](https://docs.cakewallet.com/features/advanced/background-sync/) includes more information. Some important details:
* **This is currently only for Android.** iOS has major restrictions for functionality like this.
* **This is currently only for Monero.** We plan to add Litecoin MWEB, Decred, Zano, and even Bitcoin Silent Payments in the future.
* You can select from three sync options:
* **Daily**: Attempts to background sync every 18 hours
* **Hourly**: Attempts to background sync every 60 minutes

My grandmother, Jan Arkless, passed away today. She was the author of Student Grub, How to Boil an Egg, and No Meat for Me—cookbooks that helped many people learn to cook on a budget.
I didn’t grow up in the UK, so I never really understood how well-known her books were. But recently, at a party, I met someone who told me that Student Grub was a classic and that so many people received it as a gift from their parents when they moved out. That really surprised me and made me wonder how many others had a similar experience.
If you ever used her books, I’d love to hear your memories. Did they help you when you were starting out in the kitchen? Do you have a favorite recipe from them? | r/askuk | post | r/AskUK | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2MF9Nc0RoTE5LYmxBWDVTUGQxV2VJVWVWbVpULWxNejFMTmYwWTlOMGFrOTJJRy1LU1JJRFRwVGRiTEFQc2kwVHA1UmJNTjUxSk5MUzdKRU00emQ0NkdWYlUzYlEwclZKNExMRlhZYlFDa1U9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEa3h4ZW9udnU5b29fT2hhU1JCWUZGQUkyVnN6QXJnYk9rOUVrV09UZ3lJMW9KcEUwLTZrazRPQVBiZm9TemhTcHV4a2tnaGt0TVBMZjM5RmhVUWprNkJCUEU4bzdKUk92SnpQZUpZWEdUWlIwRElzbzNCVGRBUVVsbEFRMHUwUXJlaGlSRkhtWnZVMzJ4OVg1UG1nQ1hnRWZnQzd4SnFxU2FwbW9tUGo5VFhnNHZhSFJMSHIwclNWM3Q2eHlJRUFlRklzcEtUSHg0RzNYSTZaUWpkOHVYQT09 |
Seriously though, we have plateaud when it comes to graphical fidelity, so why don't most AAA game developers focus more on the aspects that actually matter, such as fun gameplay or good writing?

I will immediately disclaim that *I am Arab myself* and do not condone ANY sort of bigotry or discrimination, towards muslims or Arabs or anyone else.
I will also clarify that I’m an Arab born to secular parents in a Western country, so I’ve never been muslim myself and must therefore speak as an outsider, even though we probably share a lot culturally. If any muslims think I have the facts wrong regarding my argument please let me know. Also, I’m speaking in a Western context (more Europe than America) and am excluding the very complex dynamics around extremism in Arab nations.
So, onto the argument. I am NOT saying that extremism hasn’t also harmed the Western muslim community, but I am arguing that they have benefitted from it in significant ways.
The first benefit is how extremism massively discourages criticism of Islam itself and the things it holds sacred. No religious person enjoys the mocking of what they hold to be sacred or of their beliefs, but it is only Islam that largely enjoys protection from this, enforced through fear. I hope this part is indisputable. If you disagree, I’d encourage you to publicly speak up about LGBTQ+ rights in Islam, as they leave much to be desired. If the thought of publicly criticizing Islam spooked you a bit, my point has been made.
Secondly, many Western muslims enjoy “special treatment”, legally speaking. If you look at the UK, for example, you will see that there are unofficial, parallel legal systems (Sharia), which is illegal but are not dissolved in order to “preserve community relations”. Many Imams in the West also get away with saying blatantly homophobic and misogynistic things — any other group that gathered to share such messages would be designated as a hate group and dissolved (I am not at all saying this should happen with muslim gatherings, but I do find some of the things said by some Western Imams to be very objectionable, and they seemingly enjoy impunity).
Thirdly, through the very real backlash extremism causes in the broader Western populations it takes place in, muslims receive the title of being “an oppressed group”. I will not deny that there are raving xenophobes that hate muslims for being muslims, but I will also not accept the expectation that Europeans ought to have zero qualms or worries about a religion out of which violent extremists occasionally arise. *Of course* not every muslim is an extremist, but every jihadist is muslim, and it is entirely unreasonable to ask of people to ignore the fact that at this point in history, terrorism is largely Islamic, especially the religiously-motivated kind. Anyway, once a group receives the status of “oppressed”, this gives the group a pass, if they wish to use it, to deflect criticism. It happens way too often that “Islamophobia” is used as a bad-faith excuse not to respond to valid criticism, even if the thing being criticized isn’t inherent to Islam, like FGM or cousin marriage in the UK, for example.
I will reiterate that I find every kind of bigotry unacceptable and I do not welcome it in whatever discussion may arise in the comments. As a secular Arab, I find myself in a unique position to speak out a little, if nothing else by sidestepping bad-faith racism allegations. Extremism is a real problem that needs to be spoken about (the fact that there haven’t been any huge attacks recently is not due to the problem getting better, but through police and national security intelligence agencies thwarting plots before they are carried out. There are several each year in most European countries, you can look it up.) and I feel that my muslim Arab brothers and sisters could be a bit louder about this, but that is a separate discussion. | r/changemyview | post | r/changemyview | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2a2pibmhaT0REMUpPbnh4Q0hIdnRKTkE5QlhPTUdwMmlabFBwVmRlY21aejRNMVZic3I2TGlFenh1NFM5Rktvd1J0Q2FfWEZqUWtxU0dfWmpYMXlDVkRLR1FVOTIxVE1MRzZ2WVZ5dF9OSm89 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEZmRaZnNsLU5qS1dUS1NWV3RiNTYzenVJRXFwYm55M2xRcmxfTUFRaF9sdGlIZjRLWnAyQmliUDhRa2xtU3c5MF9aQlRpRElZMlhpNXhydE1WUUlDWE4yUXllMFpGTG5Pc3Y2amVndjE3WkRubGtLSnBwSkpCY2MwSnN0VEtDVC1DbXFLRFM4SVl6bDJzRmJMekhPSHZfVWlPVDBjSUFQMXVTOWc1OHVsMG1QQVowSUFFYWNzVlF5R0NUNHQ3OUo2RHdORXphWkFMOGFNV3g3YkRjNDZUQT09 |
I was just reminded of the time a mate (who had bailed out of a night out early to go meet his scary girlfriend) tried to make out that the reason he hadn’t made it to the club with us was because the bouncers at the club had refused him entry for being “too good looking”.

When this story first came out, I bought the narrative that it was a blunder, but the more I read about it that theory doesn't make sense to me anymore.
The problem is not that I don't think they're incompetent enough to do it, but rather who it was that was added and when. Michael Waltz added Jeffrey Goldberg as a connection two days before adding him to this small group, it was their first communication. That first connection invite had to be established before he could be added to the group.
If someone was going to leak a national security story, Jeffrey Goldberg is on a very short list of national security reporters with the experience, credibility, and platform who could be trusted to get this story out without compromising the operation or American intelligence methods.
So in order to believe this was a mistake we have to accept that someone made a new connection with this very specific person two days before the working group began and then accidentally added them to a conversation that pertains to their beat as a journalist.
I can see accidentally adding someone to a chat, but it seems too great a coincidence that it was this particular person added just two days after a connection was first made.
So if not a mistake, then what.
1. It's an intentional leak by the Trump team, possibly to put pressure on Europe, score some political point, or accomplish some interpersonal court politics type hit on someone you don't like. This is possible, but it seems unlikely they would put themselves through this level of embarrassment and blowback when the same ends could've been accomplished in other ways.
2. It's a whistleblower. Possibly not even about the strike on the Houthis, but someone concerned that these conversations are happening on Signal at all. Besides the obvious security concerns, what may be more consequential is that these conversations aren't be recorded and thus can't be FOIA'd. If high-level discussions are consistently occurring over Signal it may be a strategy to get around the Presidential Records Act and shield themselves from legal scrutiny.
Option 2 seems the most likely to me right now, but I admit it might be overly optimistic to believe there's a person willing to fall on the sword for the greater good in that room.
EDIT: I'm feeling convinced it's more likely a mistake at this point for two reasons brought up in the comments. First that it there was a "JG" in the group and that within Signal it would be possible to add just by those initials without seeing the name "Jeffrey Goldberg". Someone else pointed out that opening the connection 2 days prior would make sense if he added the Signal app that day for this purpose, ie. Goldberg was added that day because everyone on his phone was added that day.
The second convincing argument is that even if you believe there's a whistleblower who cares about the integrity of national security (which was already an optimistic stretch) even that goal could probably been accomplished without damaging our intelligence relationships as badly as this probably has and at less personal risk.
I do still feel though that the media narrative on this is focusing mostly on the "unsecured network" aspect of this when to me the bigger story might be the "hiding all paper trails" aspect of these conversations happening on Signal, which as others have pointed out was part of Project 2025.
And intentional or not it is a wild coincidence of history that Jeffrey Goldberg happened to be the one who was sent this. | r/changemyview | post | r/changemyview | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2b3VwVTQ5NGhPN0ZfLUNpNDQ4d3c4TzJSMlNEdHFiYllYNnlHV3RVOW9nRnl2YjVpU1MtTTBpQVZBMkZiWl9Eem04UjRUaXFoMW5xNjBWcWN1ZGIzdXc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FERnJTclAteEh4U25CNVc5NzhHT3JEM2dRZnRocS1IbHFaNnJaTFA4STFtenk0bUxBSWVIYzBKY29XOUNsTGFzVDhXSFItUnpVU1BmNTRFZVltaV9rRzltdEtPOGRJQW1NdncxYklyY19CX2E5WWRFN2ZJSGN1Z0N5TzBIOE9SLXR3Q2JpRnl6WXdvMFRZUDNzN19mSUVnNzc5Uk1WZVMzTUNuTjhteUFjUHYxZ3pWaWwtTkRubGNydE1aNVNISlc2SnRiUDJkVlZ2dkxlbU9yenh2NDdzQT09 |
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday commanding wide-ranging changes to how U.S. elections are conducted, a move that will likely be swiftly challenged by voting rights organizations across the country.
Since the beginning of his second term, Trump has repeatedly outlined his extreme vision for U.S. elections, and his administration has taken actions that would, if permitted, vastly increase federal control over elections.
Tuesday’s executive order is an extension of those efforts by attempting to mandate alterations that would make it more difficult for Americans to vote and would strip funding from states who do not comply with the order.
Among the changes, Trump’s order would punish states that count ballots after Election Day and would make significant modifications to voting systems and security standards for voting equipment.
It would also require “government-issued proof of U.S. citizenship on its voter registration forms,” the White House said, a move that could disenfranchise one in 1o eligible U.S. voters, previous surveys have found. | r/neoliberal | post | r/neoliberal | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2a0tiYnpkYVg3NkN0OW1pVTUxQ0dIb2tOQUZKMmxzUlVjS0VtcTNCZkVRMEs0Qkw5U3JlSGV4WDNId2UzaEg5OElhOGhQOW5pWFczS0hQdHNfNjctR0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEWTVuUWZoQW94MGpkTGhpYUpVbmV4czY1S1lhR0VIUlpXN0VjaGhEWEljT2JlSjJBQXRlbG5EbDNFRDl1cFJOQzdtWGlmTDNrWEZYV0FSYklmT1k2Sl9nTi04TU5yS2MzRHVpRENaendwY3pBYV90UDRNcmZvS0lRWjZMTmh2eUtnVm5LODAwMXdLQmVVQ0FIR3hfRHVWWXo4eWl5ZWNUUlJMT00xY3V1M0RkQ2d6dngyUkN6SGJ1aVp3cTM4eWo0WUx0REpEVlFxTUh4V1c3a1k2MW5lUT09 |

Hello Regard,
I have consistently been buying $TSLA puts every time it pumps and made decent money but guys, this time it's different. A 13% pump simply due to "softer tariffs" makes no sense. $NVDA and the SPY have not been moving like $TSLA this past week. Again, a sudden pump to +4% just before closing is very sus. They are somehow managing to trap the retail virgin. How can a stock skyrocket 13% literally after they announce that they lost 44% sales in Europe? When $INTC reported an 8b loss, it lost 30% valuation in 30 minutes. Intuitive Machine($LUNR) lost 50% valuation because they didn't land something on the moon, idk.
At 3:05PM I noticed a 12M BUY Volume on $TSLA on my Robinhood App. The same thing happened yesterday on closing, someone bought 2M stock. This is not retail investor, This is Elmo and 🥭 cooking up some massive scam which is going to completely cook the retail investor and us, WSB Put buyers. I have made good money buying $TSLA puts but today I have made the cumulative decision to stay away from them.
Elmo is planning something big and our PUTS will be fucked.
I felt that one of us must address this problem and warn the others about Elmo. | r/wallstreetbets | post | r/wallstreetbets | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2UHVrRHA0cG5PZFRCaEp3cFAyTU8zV1hIX2ctcW9lUU1iRVFJNnRnM2pDNjVTbDBBeG02RlFpT3FTX1hlYlBEcmpObWlmWU1WMDN1OHp0WVpvY1B3TUVmS2NEM1FIUTB2SW9VaEJvZm5MRUk9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FESmgxZlBaS0dHN2ZjazB0YkR6YjRjWHRLalluc004eWI1UHJRUHhlQVp1REdBX0hWN29pNGc2eEJBMURWMnNCRk1Zb094OVFUTjE2T0RqVzRTUkJrQWhXeVM5ZTJuZ1FUcVVXcWNNSmh3WVlWM3laRzFzZ05KQnBQaUdHTE9xbmlYcnFNZXFqM21ZOVdPMW42anZZdWZzQk50enBzSDZQX0hhcURRRGVndEhFPQ== |

The American elections come to mind about recent, extreme examples of this. But I want to stress that this is not a partisan issue, and it has been an issue in governments for a long time.
The extreme example I am referring to is how Elon is paying people to vote. Something that is perfectly legal under current laws apparently yet a clear and obvious breach of free and fair elections. Some people might argue that paying someone to vote without explicit direction means nothing, but I disagree. If someone is openly supporting a candidate then paying people money, those people will subconsciously associate that candidate with some reward. This is not a new issue but it is the most egregious in my eyes that shows the power wealth has to sway elections.
Paid lobbyist create a clear conflict of interest between governance and corporate greed. I concede that at times the relationship between corporation interests and government policy can be beneficial for both parties. But I think when lobbyist are allowed to fund political campaigns it impedes on the principles of a free market via favorable policy making. I don't think a beneficial relationship and a ban on paid lobbyist are mutually exclusive, in fact, I think the implementation of a ban is more favorable to the majority of companies and competition.
Some might argue that this would be a violation of freedom of speech. That putting a ban on funding would restrict advertisements which all companies should have a right to air. I also disagree on the basis that advertisement space and funding is still being provided to each candidate. These laws would ensure that every candidate has an equal chance of being heard. It will also become a better way to determine which candidates are more competent at using government funds for a goal.
As it stands I don't understand why these laws don't exist and without them it clearly doesn't fit the definition of a democracy. Privtate wealth is funneled into every election and has a major impact over who's voice is heard the most. Plutocracy is a much more accurate depiction of societies current government type and I think people should be more open about defining it as such. Now you can argue that a plutocracy is more effective but I would also disagree as like I said before it is restrictive to a free and competitive market. | r/changemyview | post | r/changemyview | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2ZUh5NERkSldNYzRia0xXTjZFU0ZKb1l6aV9vSFZVcms2d2NrNFk0YWhDWk9qTXlad1ZtWXV2Vk9MM2p4ckwxVld4b3Bibk1nelo1OGkwbm5IOTdnNlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEcWItd2FiazZzS0FmVzBqTzZqYUIxRFJRRXdzd0d4VHVzaGFlNUhyR1RWenFtVERPSllka0pPWC1nczRmcmhuLVVIQVVmMmExbTlNaElQNUZBZkRORkJONVFkN2dQQ1dKVXk4QlQxZE9GRXhsX1JYZk5GcDdnMWFfZHlhX28zZm9FYXJLV0VfMkpWM3BBTjdDdkpValFiUUxaZ0FuNFV0c0RGa3IxOGVhQmZueEh0SFBIOHBMV21QdjFmT0V2Z1hGXy1ISmRpY3ZmSVlxT2cwR0lvbmxJUT09 |

I am a tiny fish (made 10k in January bull market)so I will just purchase a used Toyota and make my family's life a bit easier. | r/cryptomarkets | post | r/CryptoMarkets | 2025-03-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2eGt5THJWZVhlaGNQMEFHUzdRVEJ6c0ptTjZOVHoxeTM2SlVKN3ZNa0tON3pWZTRWODluYjZYT1A2RE9JZ3I4WG0yYkJiY1ExVndoZzJBVWVoWU1iSmJkdGpjd2FvMXJrUnl5aFlDVldSQUk9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEZXNkZXpQOHdIUk5pQng0a25YZk5seU1FSWI1Ymw1ZXdFanFNYTB2WUFYQ1lpOU55Z3lDbEJyWkluc1BwRHVIdEtvYUVjQk9XS21kd2Z6NjZybWhqNDVBdjFfUmxJTUJfSWFUTEdFYlRZM3JlUHB3RllzUi1ETFVtTmhGeXRTUkV3cks0eE80bVB1VUhLdzM4RGR2NDhkR2FmRVprRUV5bjRRa0lBTXlQRFpZPQ== |
My signifiant other (M38) and I (F35) have lived together for over a year. His mother and our daughter (F13) are also in the home. He is the primary cook in the home as he prefers to cook and is picky about how the food is prepared. He also does the majority of the shopping because he prefers to shop at certain stores. I do also cook occasionally and pay for meals when we order out. Additionally when I give him money to assist with bills I give extra to help pay for food costs. I do also clean the kitchen after each meal which is not a small task because he doesn't clean as he cooks and typically any thing he touches in the meal prep process is left out. None of this bothers me so much as when he asks me to go to the store for last minute ingredients. For some reason he never has all the ingredients right before the meal needs to be cooked. For instance tonight, he starts cooking pasta at 6:45pm and right before he cooks he forgot that we did not have noodles. He started planning dinner at 10am. He then expects me to drop anything I am doing to go to the store to get the items. When I say "no, you could have asked earlier or planned better" he accuses me of being lazy or not helpful. He does this during holidays too. Days before the holiday I asks several times does he need me to go to the store. Every day leading up to the holiday he says no, then inevitably the day of the holiday he needs a few ingredients. I ask him all the time just to be thoughtful of my time because I could end up having to make trips to the store everyday due to his poor planning. I am starting to feel he does this as a way to make me earn my meal.

The journalist that was added to the thread has said that he has not released the logs because he was concerned it could cause damage to national security, which I think is a responsible position by him. He's now being besmirched by some people who were allegedly in that thread.
In the senate intelligence committee hearing, multiple times the DNI and the Director of the CIA have said that nothing classified was discussed in that signal thread.
These are very high ranking intelligence officials... Kind of the highest ranking even. If they're not sure on whether classified material was present in that chat they should have said they didn't know and it's being looked into but they didn't. Instead they said there was not classified material in that thread.
I think the best move by the Atlantic here, and this is being extremely generous on their part would be to put out a statement quoting the denial of classified material by these high ranking intelligence officials and say something like "okay... final answer guys? because we didn't release this because it seemed classified to our journalists but if you're saying it's not we're going to release it" and then release it if no statement is made or if another denial is issued.
TLDR: High ranking intelligence officials are saying that there wasn't classified material in this thread. If true, then the material should be released.
Edit: Looks like the Atlantic read my post specifically and took my advice. I’d like to thank the academy, my manager, and most importantly jesus christ. Also, i’m not the DNI so I can’t say for sure but it appears to me that there was indeed classified material in that chat.
Here’s an imgur link of the transcript for anyone that doesn’t want to make an account with The Atlantic:

... and we should be sending more. Most of the aid sent to Ukraine is the paper cost of obsolete weapons that are being written off.
Ukraine is literally fighting *three* of America's sworn enemies: Russia, North Korea, and Iran.
There is no possible defense spending that is more efficient than handing your ally a weapon in an active war against your enemy. With Ukraine, they are mainly getting hand me downs. We are mainly spending on the cost of the *fuel*
These weapons do not gather dust. Every munition flown to Ukraine goes to the front line and gets put to work on a Russian or NK soldier, tank, or plane, or an Iranian drone within *days or weeks*.
That soldier or equipment will no longer menace Russian neighbors or Ukrainian civilians. And the more casualties Russia takes, the more China is deterred from similar adventures.
Blocking this aid or redirecting US defense dollars to the Indo-Pacific is weak, foolish, and disgraceful. The Cold War cost many trillions of dollars over decades.
Helping Ukraine defeat America's long time enemy is costing far less. | r/changemyview | post | r/changemyview | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2ck4wTTQzREJ1cldEYXNoWHprMFBBOVg3S0dPN0M3aEhhZTNSazNCaWVlNFVUSUZiNzlUcXBRU3JvTHJ0R2ZfY3l3RVFUbzF2cTh1T2c5SHNCempJLVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEVUpnTGJvR2QzcDl2d1BaVy1LMjliSFJPcFoySnBjSGd2NmM3Y3cxSzdEVFhrVnNEN21FQl9vVm5CdmlKaEFMTTBfaXdLaEhkaS04QUJwdXJkTFphbVVOTFlNREdYbXlnSjBiNEFYSHg5SUJBTFRpaGJtODRvdklRekZPeTBEelhMOEZTN1NWRWhrRk01TWpsRktzcTI2bV84cWJVNzktRHdLYzhGOVJPRVdjaVd6QTh5bkJGZ0lLemtpRVo5S1ZYM2lPekdjd2U5NFJQUEFmT3BZY2NPdz09 |
Currently I live in an apartment with my friend and we split everything 50/50 — rent, utilities etc... its not a fancy apartment, but we make it work. I am a student with part-time job and my friend works full-time.
last week, rent was due. the day before, she told me she couldn’t cover her half because her paycheck was short and asked if i could spot her until the next one. i was kinda stressed but agreed to help her since its a one time thing.
However, the next day i saw her instagram story. she was at a huge concert for one of her favorite artists. i asked her about it, and she admitted she bought the tickets a month ago, and said she couldn’t pass up the chance and didn’t think her finances would be this tight by now.
I was furious and told her it wasn’t fair to make me cover rent while she’s out spending on luxuries. she told me i was being harsh and that her experiences matter too, and I would’ve done the same. i told her i wouldn’t because i actually budget for my responsibilities. and i don't over spend.
now we haven't talk in few days because she thinks i’m being selfish and cold. Some my friends say i should be more understanding because mental health matters and music is her escape.
i don’t want to be heartless, but i also don’t want to be someone’s safety net when they make poor choices.
aita for refusing to cover her rent? | r/amitheasshole | post | r/AmItheAsshole | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2dzBET3NzXy1KWnhtNDVYWjREaFZEWlEzLTNHbUYxQ18wZmF1WnRmR1VqQzZQUWZBajVGNlNXd04za3FwRWFoaTZfZVlVYlpxbnd6al9RaVFOMExGQkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEV00xd0xNejFUSzAySVVNZm5uNTdzbm9LVXRVNkp1b0ZRVWhNNjhmYWxsa3ZJVmdueWFwdzVtNmVnN0cwcjJVUXliZlhRZEFJZ3NVa3hSOTN2cllUMmthNmNQNGxNVkhrRkdCYmFPd21lcGdMcUVIT3ZCSENRbjFMNnhWcl9XSllVRktxdEtLeGk0RmtJVjMwX1d0WjYwR1U1WWgtc2lJYW5Fa0VySDNmUm9wVjdMYlFTQ0I2dk41eWFaYnprbTFDNlZSaGhINWxrZUJKTzZMc1RISXplQT09 |
I miss thin smallish phones, 5.5-6inch phones with rounded sides. I don’t care about the battery life, I’m pretty much always at a place where I have access to a charger, work, car, home. And if I’m not there I either won’t need 8 hours of on screen time. I’m not talking iPhone 13 mini because that has square edges but every phone now is at least 6 inch’s with square body that weighs like a brick. The rumored iPhone air would be nice but it’s 6.6inch and probably square edges too..
I want a really great camera or else I’d go with an older phone.

My friends and I have been planning on going to Japan sometime in 2026 for a girls' trip. The oldest of us 4 girls has been in a relationship with her boyfriend for 10+ years, I've been with my husband for 6 years, another girl has been with her girlfriend for 3 years and the youngest (and biggest planner so far) of us has been dating her boyfriend for about a year. When we first started talking about it, we said girls' trip. Now, all of a sudden, we have the boyfriend of a year tagging along. No other partner is allowed to come with. When I found out, I lost my cool. I told my husband how I was already on the fence about leaving the country without him and how it pissed me off that I can't have my HUSBAND come with but my friends boyfriend can come with and I'm still expected to pay for a fourth of everything. All us girls are expected to absorb his share of things.
Since my friend is making the decisions on where we are staying and flights, I can't just tell her my husband is coming with us. So I'm strongly thinking I just say I'm out and explain why. I just worry that my friends would think I'm overthinking?
Update:
I wasn't asking for advice. I just wanted to know if I would be the AH for dipping.
To all of those saying ITA for coming to reddit first, I did because I have been known to overreact and I wanted an outsiders opinion before I went full crazy like I did with my husband when I first found out.
That being said, I was half correct in the assumption that he is coming and he would not be paying. Since my other friends and I wouldn't be paying for our flight, it was only fair that we contributed by paying for his lodging. He would pay for any food or activities.
Also, she feels we only really need one man in our group as more than one would make things too complicated with traveling around Japan.
The reason she put it in the document was because she figured it would be easier for us to digest that the plans were and I quote "minorly tweeked" instead of telling us she wanted him to go.
I told her I didn't feel comfortable with him tagging along as I hardly know him and it wasn't in the plans and by him being there, she will change how she acts and we all agreed we needed to let loose.
After much screaming back and forth about if one couple goes, then all couples should get the chance to, I was told I could either just shut up or not go. Since the other girls have no issue with him going as long as he pays, I should be fine, too. So I told her I would not be going. My husband and I are planning to go somewhere else instead.

I work at a diner as a waitress with this kid, let’s call him John. John has always seemed pretty chill and busses my tables. Sometimes we chat if we are closing together, usually about school, as he started college not too long ago and I am almost graduated with my BA. Ultimately, we are friendly but not friends.
Last week he said that he was part of a group chat with a handful of other coworkers on instagram and asked if I wanted to join. I said sure because I haven’t connected with people at the diner that well and figured it was worth a shot. We swapped instas. The group chat is very normal, friendly banter between coworkers.
Yesterday, I see that John posted a reel of him and a couple of his buddies doing their take on a “hear me out cake”, which is usually a very lighthearted and funny way of saying you would get with what are typically fictional and mostly animated characters. The entire cake adhered to that concept, except toward the end, when MY FACE (a picture that he must have screenshotted from one of my posts), is stuck on the cake. I was the only real person on that cake, and John actually made a comment about how attractive I was and that he wished that he could “hit that”, but doubts he has a chance.
I feel insanely grossed out and kind of violated. I want the video taken down, but am not sure if I have the right or authority to do that. I ranted about this to my sister, and she told me to just take it as a compliment and be glad that someone thinks I am pretty. It feels wrong doing that.
Is this grounds for taking this issue to higher ups? I don’t know if I am comfortable working with him at the moment. Do I just take care of this myself and tell him that it makes me uncomfortable and I want him to take it down? It is a public video. I am just uncertain how to move forward.
UPDATE: Hi! Idk if this is how you do an update, but this is how I am doing it.
So, I screen recorded the video and sent it to my manager. We are on good terms and I was hoping that she would understand and we could rework the schedule so that I don’t have him bussing my tables and we won’t have to interact. She said this is very odd and may be a violation of conduct? She told me not to stress about the details and that she would take care of it. I am very grateful with how seriously she took it. She had moved me around so that I will not have to see him as much and I only have a handful of times since then. He has avoided eye contact with me entirely.
Once my manager was aware of the video, I dmed John on insta saying:
“The video you made in which you put my face in a hear me out cake for social media is gross and unprofessional. We are coworkers. I did not greenlight being posted online and sexualized like that. I have talked with ___ (manager) about the situation and my discomfort and would like you to take the video down. You used my image without my consent.”
He responded and “apologized” saying that he and his friends were drunk and that he made that video on a whim. He told me he thought I was cool and wouldn’t have a problem with it. He said he would take it down but never once actually said sorry, just a gave those excuses. It was deleted. He has been having to take an online course about sexual harassment and workplace misconduct or something like that. Something probably meaningless but at least it is slightly a pain in the ass.
The only thing now is that he has busboy buddies that side eye and kind of glower at me because of the action I took. On the bright side, they probably won’t fuck with me like that.
Anyway, thanks to anyone reading. I am not sure if anyone will see this, but the comments on the last post were mostly helpful and I am grateful for the perspective that you guys provided, so thanks! | r/relationship_advice | post | r/relationship_advice | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2WWEydkh3aUp6cXhaWDJUdE90SzZOa0swbkZ1T0tkeFVsTVRnWm5xLW5UYVg5NG5FV0ZQaVJBYTl4cHRwMlprNlk5R1NJbm9mcGRtb2xiMEJPUzlrNkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FES29hdnhaTHZoVlZjNzNId1RoMUd4UDFvX1FVM2lwSXVYS1dqWFdHdFQ1VnNKQ2xHYzJuUXY5MnVQNXdZQjJ4VHY0T1ZVTW5CMUNPUXRYTVNTWm5NeW5PQ256T1ltcFVzd3RNR19EY18welB5LVpLWTQzUmZyb2c3VlZfc202c2xfZUgzc3FGMjdvLUhFWU4zZ1RvTkM3R05CYi1ZczBtUlM3UFFPVVFKWnVaX3VXX1FTUG5tdGNOT2ZlS2dGNjNYYk5EQll6RFlJdWg2S29tUGtaeTA0UT09 |
Bron was on the PatMcafee show and said this.
Obviously he’s exaggerating about Giannis dropping 250 in the 70’s, but this quote from Bron on his thoughts on how tough previous eras of the league were is interesting.

Hi all. I could really use some input
My best friend seduced my husband roughly 1 week after I confided in her that we were having issues but planning on going to therapy. At the same time, she ghosted me. In the months leading up to this, my dad died, my dog died, my husband and I began living in separate housing while seeking therapy, and I totaled my car.
I reached out to her (after several weeks of being ignored as i offered to be her ride to and from a medical appointment, to bring her things and check in on her wellbeing) and said that it felt like my friendship was no longer convenient to her when I was going through one of the darkest periods of my life. She responded back with a 6 page pdf (yes, pdf in response to a text) which rambled about how good of a person she was and how rough her life was, only to end the very last paragraph saying she wasn't mad at me for anything but the best thing she could do was let me figure things out on my own.
Come to find out that she had already hooked up with my husband 3 times. He has his fair share of blame in this situation, but that's not what I need advice on at the moment.
She trash talked me to him, threw herself at him, and told him all they would need to do was wait "an appropriate amount of time, maybe 6 months" before becoming publicly official as dating. For reference, we were friends for 5 years. I have known my husband for 4 years. She was going to be the maid of honor in our upcoming wedding (we've been married 3 years but never had an actual wedding for others to attend). She called me her best friend. She stated hundreds of times that the reason she and my husband got along so well was because they "bonded over their shared love of me".
This is someone who presents themselves as an ideal. She meditates multiple times a week. She sober (well- she calls herself that, but really she does plenty of things- she just doesn't drink very much) and hosts sober events. She talks all the time about how much spiritual healing she has done, how often she donates food to the local food bank, etc. She posts constantly about how "2025 is her year of solitary growth and healing" and promotes herself as someone everyone else should go to for advice and wisdom about how to become a better person. She is the epitome of empathy and honesty. She is the ideal friend who would never hurt her loved ones.
I want to put her on blast. I found everything out about 2 weeks ago (it happened about 3 months ago), and she sent me that pdf about 1.5 months ago. I can't seem to let the thought go- I want to announce what she did in a very public way.
I know it's messy. And juvenile. But at the same time, I can't STAND the thought of her tricking people into believing this image she puts forth. She had me completely fooled, and she still is fooling so many others. Isn't it the right thing to do to warn others? To expose the snake oil salesman?
I also think it would make me feel better to expose her- i know that I wouldn't be doing it *just* for the good of others. But at the same time, I don't know that I want everyone to know what she and my husband did. Especially because at this moment in time, my husband and I are in therapy and working towards possible reconciliation.
Should I expose her publicly? How? Why or why not? What repercussions could exposing her have, that I may not be thinking of?
Is there some way to expose her while also not letting everyone know the painful intimate details of my life/relationship? Or some way to at least stop thinking about it?
What would you do?
EDIT: a lot of people are bringing up good reasons not to do it publicly. What about confronting her privately?

I don’t know what to do. I checked her phone and saw she was messaging someone. They’re talking about meeting up later on while I’m at school. What do I do? (She doesn’t know that I know.)
Edit: we don’t have kids
UPDATE 1: whoa. I didn’t expect this to blow up like it did. Long story short, I didn’t confront her about her cheating. But I took pictures of the messages she was sending to her AP. When she left for work, I called up two of my friends to help me move my stuff out. I didn’t leave a note. I didn’t leave anything and why should I? I just left the apartment we shared even though it hurts. Ever since I left she’s been blowing up my phone but I haven’t responded. I instructed all of my friends and family to block her on social media and not to respond to her messages. I’ve talked to an attorney and we are getting the divorce proceedings going. I appreciate all of the help. I’ll post another update if anything happens. | r/askmenadvice | post | r/AskMenAdvice | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2eEQ1UG11UUNtV1U2UkZGLS1KSVI2NzVpV0llY0dJalBoLTFQekxKYmkwSWs1Umx5Y1JQT04wMmtrRW5rLXoxcl9aazhiRUs3Q3Z2MGM4OWtZcEtUUXR3Y2R2LW9tLWNOQUZHcG16VkdibWc9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FENERkTm1jdlVnMzJ5cnpLWWEtaUdHMF9wRG41V3hIX1EzSnZUWi1UWXFMdmlpUnhOMUVPblNlUnV0Qmp4RzlsaUhuTHY3cVJ3T2dNc2tWcmZqRkJUSXgtOW5TYXFKZlppQUVRNXhfM0JZNFF5UG5CTERVS0FpSkFDWUkxZDYwalVxeTQ5UnZhb1hQNkRqX0J5S0wxUHI3VzJsWGNNZ0x2d0tVQ1NmMWdNU3JYRGpoQ1Y3QlU2MjdhMkZmOTFwTzlY |

My boyfriend and I made dinner tonight from one of those meal delivery services (like Hello Fresh). It was called loaded pork taquitos. We forgot to pick our meals for this week so they were chosen for us. So we cooked the recipe together (usually he does the prepwork like cutting veggies while I do the cooking). I knew already that my boyfriend wasn’t excited about this recipe. He’s Mexican and doesn’t like Tex-Mex. However, I didn’t know the extent to which he disliked it as we’ve had it before from other places (but he always commented his disdain for the food). So I finished cooking the dish and we started eating it. Of course, it wasn’t as good as authentic Mexican food, but I thought it tasted pretty good honestly. I asked him how he felt about it and he expressed his disdain for the dish, talking about how he feels like it’s what’s wrong with Tex-Mex and how it whitewashes his culture. I was listening but still eating the food because I was hungry and I just feel like eating something you cooked makes the experience better. Then, he suddenly says that he hated the dish and he is too disgusted to have it eaten in our household. He took his plate and my plate and threw them directly into the trash, literally as I had my fork on the plate eating it.
We got into a fight afterwards as I feel like him taking the food I was eating, disregarding any choice I had in the matter was wrong. I do understand how he feels, though. As another poc, it is frustrating to feel like your culture is being appropriated, erasing your community’s history. In our argument afterward, I told him that I respect how he feels about it and that we won’t eat Tex-Mex anymore—I just didn’t know he felt that strongly about it before. But I still disagree with what he did as I felt that it completely disregarded how I felt. I feel like if he had explained how strongly he felt about it, I would have stopped eating the food out of respect for him. However, he thinks that me being upset about his actions is wrong and indicative of my lack of respect for his culture. So, AITA?
Edit: Hey thanks for the responses. I know I’m getting a lot of flak for excuses and enabling him and his actions were absolutely wrong—that’s what the fight was about. But I do think that I painted his response in a worse light than I meant to. It wasn’t aggressive or malicious. But of course that doesn’t excuse what he did. He needs to learn to emotionally regulate and I think that’s something that can be worked on. We’re both young, and we’re growing. I know most of you don’t agree, but I don’t think he’s irredeemable.
To those of you who have educated me on Tejano cuisine thank you so much. I’m lacking in my knowledge of Mexican/Mexican-American history, and it’s something I’ve been meaning to educate myself on for awhile.
Update: Hey so we had a long conversation when he got home from work. He apologized profusely and expressed regret for his actions. He said that he realizes that what he did was a huge overreaction and absolutely unacceptable. He said that there’s no excuse for what he did and that he’s sorry that he failed me in that moment and he knows he needs to continue working on his communication skills because of this. I appreciated that and I forgave him. I know a lot of you will think I drank the kool aid but I think it’s hard to judge something you only have a second hand account of. You don’t really know our lives or anything about us other than what I’ve shared here. I spoke with several of my friends earlier about this—all highly-educated, independent women—who actually know him. They thought that what was said here was an overreaction, though they all agreed that his behavior was ridiculous and unacceptable. So ultimately I will listen to the people that I know and trust in real life. However, I do really appreciate all the perspectives given here. Even the ones calling me a pathetic enabler with no self-respect. I know that most of you commented out of concern for my well-being and I appreciate that. I agree that this was concerning and I will keep an eye out for a similar pattern of behavior in the future. Thanks for the help. | r/aitah | post | r/AITAH | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2eVctQVBqUll0SzF2VVM5VTNmWUEyeXVwRXVrZEhrQTFOb3dWLU9hT2pET1phMHBRZXZHSTNJWTBTVEhnQ2VvS0NUeTRQS2x0VHp0QTlJSGUtT05SR0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEUi1IUy1GYjUwNFV1TjVubEVpc1ZiYWlRYzFVMy1sWWI4aEFUYWowVUo0enNWTUNrQVdBcnJDT2dmUUFWYUNzbHZlNGpzWm44dUNZelF2a2poRVZZd0FoelhTZ29EX2VJYnFCWkk1bUtoY2dncG1kaDlHVDJYU3hicTV3cUVSU0V2dm95QjBfbHpXVGVtTHpYTXo3RGVCOTFrOW1ZZ21sN1g0NmhzNElpdjJMaDFkeU4tMDNHYUJHaVVMaGhPQ0hMQmxfUDRueHozYmNaNTFtN3hyU21LUT09 |

So we've been seeing a lot of the IPL pitches being absolute roads. And I don't know if I really agree with that. Because seeing the hawkeye data, we've had games with swing up front, help for spinners, slower balls gripping and reverse swing, yet we're seeing high scores. Now I don't blame the average viewer for thinking this because they don't really look at data the same way I do. If I wasn't looking at hawkeye data, I'd be screaming about the roads too. They've been batting friendly pitches for sure. But the IPL's had batting friendly pitches for eons. And we've never had this level of madness.
So, what I've done is train a model to take the length, line, where its projected to hit the stumps, speed, swing/drift, seam/turn and over of the game for spin and pace and predict runs scored of that ball. This has been trained using data from from 2023 and 2024, so two impact player seasons. This isn't accurate but should roughly give us the idea of the bowling quality and how many runs you'd expect batting sides to make.
So the SRH and RR games were predicted to be 190 vs 190 which is a batting pitch. But the bowling nor the pitch was bad enough for it to be 286 vs 242. Batters are just more free now. Its a change in mindset and deeper batting lineups. But even that isn't always true because for SRH Cummins was no 8, and that's his normal batting position, yet they're still batting like lunatics.
The truth was that in the early seasons we had a lot of older players who just didn't care about the format like Dravid, Kallis, Ponting, Sachin, etc. And you can't blame them they were basically close to retiring and they couldn't be asked to learn a whole new format. Then we had the birth of the anchors, who tried being 50 of 36 and then getting a big score. We don't have that now. T20 would always have a resource problem. Its 10 wickets in 20 overs. It's a fraction of the time of tests with the same resources. Batters have just underperformed for years. And we don't have a glass ceiling anymore, there's no being 220/2 and patting yourself on the back anymore. | r/cricket | post | r/Cricket | 2025-03-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3A2RFRMX2JuTXlGdkY5eHJiUjBNVVBUeDBBRGM1LUxxVm9hdDlUS190TGQtd21LeE1XZHpRY3NwQzUtNVZtX1prcnhqYVo5NzY1YnNNR0llTU5jRWdIbzJObUZSSXNTSERkSS1lNFd0c3A1MWc9 | Z0FBQUFBQm9DX3FEYllaN0VwYWQ0WWtxS2RJcmRMS3Q0ZFR1ZUd6SlRyVE80Qy11NU8zMnhDM2VneUdrUUdBcXYtV3N3MlFvbTdZSTM2RUxjd1VsdDNDVTJMU3YxSVVhQlBxQ0VUTnhNNDBEeUdIQ0Y0S3hHU2FIc2U5TURzaDF3QVBlbzhWSm9ITjIyWGFzRXZESkxqLWg2MnRDSWNEM0N3TC1TdklSS3BnTlIzUXdEOTViTks3NG5TVG04cHZPUTVWdW05VWQ4YlE2QUJDNTl0R0hyOENIZkJPSVd4M3ladz09 |
Bit of a rant.
If solana wants to be taken seriously and not taint it's image as a "genuine" block chain, rug pulls and scams need to go, they have to get a hold on this in my honest opinion.
I'm all for meme coins and community building etc, but, People are breaking the law everyday on solana, the block chain for criminals.
I'm just not feeling it's current direction, is this seriously the pinnacle of this tech?
The same applies for like 90% of the crypto market, just fast cash grabs. it's just heading in a totally dumb direction, solana just happens to hold the highest concentration of degenerates.
I can't be the only one here??

I was asked to post this on r/monerosupport a while ago but did not receive any answers, so thought I would try again here if I'm allowed.
Original post:
I'm no expert at these things, so would love if someone could enlighten me. My question might be poorly worded.
Question - you buy BTC or LTC on a CEX and swap to Monero using Cake wallet.
When its time to declare taxes, your tax agency would be able to see your purchase, and you would need to declare any financial gain or loss associated with your swap to Monero. And you would have to provide some kind of proof or possibly be in deep trouble legally. Wouldnt this defeat the purpose of Monero - the anonymity?
And if you bought something using the Monero - you would have to give some kind of proof of what you bought in order to prove what happened to the Monero. This also seems to defeat the whole purpose of Monero. If your tax agency can demand to know exactly what you bought with Monero and how much it cost or otherwise you become a suspect, you might as well use BTC or cash?

My best friend(22M)and I(21M) are having the biggest fight weve ever had because of a girl (25F) I like. Ill call her Claire. Claire and I met recently this semester and shes one of the few people Ive really actually connected with. I think word got around we started getting close and people started sending me dms of X links during the time she use to do porn. She told me she did it for financial reasons. She use work 50 hours a week while juggling university and did it pay her medical bills. Someone posted a picture of me and her and a party and random strangers started dming me about her. My best friend, is really pissed because of it. Hes a christian more conservative guy so it makes sense but I feel like he was being almost mysoginistic and aggresive for no reason? Am I overreacting? I feel like hes not showing her any empathy. Am I being naive, and just getting too ahead of myself? Is he just looking out for me?

I (18F) am currently a highschooler. Not too long ago there was a school event that was organized to celebrate our trilingual institution; meaning that we held interclass competitions in our local language, national language, and in English. Every class is required to send 1 or two representatives per competition branch. Compared to my classmates I am quite fluent in English but I had another competition outside of my school that I needed to prepare for so I did not enlist myself.
About 2 weeks before the day of the event, the guidebook was sent to my class' group chat as well as a list of who will participate. Our Class President (18F) urged us to enlist ourselves. Since I was busy, I ignored it.
Fast forward a week after that, at 7 PM on a Friday, my Class President DM-ed me. She asked me if I’ve already submitted the video for the upcoming school event’s English speech contest. When I asked for further information, she sent me a screenshot of the list in the class group chat, showing that my named was on the list under “English Speech Contest”. She admonished me for not paying attention since she tagged me and the other contestants a school week (5 days) before. This is one her texts, translated:
>“You didn’t know that you were enlisted as a participant? Come on [My Name], we’ve already listed you in the group chat since a whole week ago…”
When I checked the ACTUAL list I found that, above it, she had conveniently cropped out a text where she said that this “revised” list (composed by herself and our Class’ Vice President (18F)) cannot be protested as they’ve officially registered the people on the list. This is the exact text in the group chat (some parts have been translated):
>“No excuses, [those on this list have been officially registered.]”
I screenshotted that specific text and circled the “no excuses” part before sending it to her. I told her that in that WHOLE SCHOOL WEEK after she registered me and our other classmates neither she nor the Vice President ever bothered to check in with me about whether or not I’ll be able to participate. I also emphasized the fact that only now, less than 5 hours before deadline (11:59 PM), did any of them bother to text me.
At the end of my text I told her that everything must be done with consent and there was no such thing as “no excuses” considering we live in a democratic country.
Class President left me on read. Fine.
A couple of days later it’s Monday again. Class President & Vice did not bring up this issue. My parents say I’m in the right feel slighted, while some of my classmates have said that I was an asshole for refusing to cooperate and potentially getting the entire class in trouble.

SWIFT (The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) has been working with Chainlink since 2017.
EVIDENCE:
https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2017/06/30/swift-completes-blockchain-smart-contracts-trial
Recent direct quotes from SWIFT's stratergy director confirming the above;
>“You were actually one of the first startups that we bet on,” Strategy Director Jonathan Ehrenfeld Solé of SWIFT, which executes financial transactions and payments between banks worldwide, told Nazarov at this year's SmartCon. Now their partnership could ensure that blockchain becomes an integral part of the financial system.
https://www.coindesk.com/learn/swift-is-partnering-with-chainlink-heres-the-down-low-on-the-blockchain-data-provider
KEY QUOTE FOR YOU XRP FANS;
>“So from SWIFT’s side, it becomes a lot more powerful because instead of just messaging, it can do settlements as well now, not directly but through the blockchain,” Arjoon said. Typically SWIFT just delivers the information from banks for example, while the banks handle the actual settlement.
.
.
Chainlinks CCIP has been purposely built to directly connect to the SWIFT's existing systems as demonstrated here in 2023;
EVIDENCE:
https://www.swift.com/news-events/news/swift-explores-blockchain-interoperability-remove-friction-tokenised-asset-settlement
>“There’s unlikely to be a single prevailing blockchain network,” said Tom Zschach, Chief Innovation Officer at Swift. “We would expect to see a multitude of different platforms emerging, each serving different customer segments with their own bespoke capabilities and requirements. In such a highly fragmented ecosystem, it would simply not be feasible for financial institutions to connect to each and every platform individually. That’s why the community is working with Swift to develop an interoperability model that would enable access to different platforms globally.”
>Instead of building new infrastructure and technology stacks entirely from scratch, financial institutions want to leverage their existing infrastructure to connect to blockchain ledgers, where tokens are recorded in a way that is both compliant and secure. Not only would this help firms simplify their architecture and operations, but it also minimises investment costs and reduces risk of technology obsolescence.
In the same year (2023), using CCIP enhanced SWIFT system, ANZ (Largest bank in AUS, 1trillion assests under management) successfully demonstrated how ANZ customers could use CCIP to securely transfer ANZ-issued stablecoins cross-chain to purchase nature-based assets. This happened in one transaction across 2 chains. One public chain (AVA) and a permissioned private chain.
Anurag Soin, director of digital asset services at Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd explains it all here (5mins long, definitely worth watching);

This brings us to more recent developments with SWIFT in 2024;

More of what we already know, but done at scale across multiple different banks, all utilising existing SWIFT infrastructure with CCIP to settle subscriptions and settlements of tokenised funds.
>Chainlink platform and the Swift network to settle subscriptions and redemptions for tokenized investment fund vehicles, thereby allowing the straight-through-processing of the payment leg without the need for the global adoption of an on-chain form of payment. This helps in the automation of the entire lifecycle of the fund redemption and subscription process.
>“For digital assets to be adopted globally, they must seamlessly integrate with both existing payment systems and digital currencies," said Jonathan Ehrenfeld, Head of Strategy, Swift.
I have established that Chainlink and SWIFT have been working and building together for 8 years.
Their aim was to build upon the existing SWIFT network, improving it with Chainlink's CCIP, to allow banks to access blockchains/DLT services.
They have succeeded. Chainlink's CCIP is a Swift designed product.
What does this mean for blockchains/DLT?
Banks do not need to change existing systems or work methods. They just use CCIP.
Banks do not to integrate individually with each blockchain. They just use CCIP.
Banks do not need to hold 100's of different blockchain gas tokens. They just use CCIP.
SWIFT won't connect to any blockchains. SWIFT will connect to Chainlink.
Chainlink will connect to everything.

My dad got married last month and his wife only moved in a week after the wedding (they were long distance for three years). I (17M) still live at home for now but I plan to move out this summer. When my dad's wife moved in she told my dad she didn't want to see any photos of my mom around the house. That it was supposed to be her home and she could not make a home with those memories on display. She needed to know she was his wife, not just his second wife. So the photos came down. My dad was going to store them so he offered to let me take whatever photos I wanted since they'd just gather dust according to him.
I took them all. Not some, not one or two, I took them all and my grandparents are keeping them safe for me. Dad's wife had no issue with me taking the ones I wanted until I wanted them all. Then she asked me why I was taking them all and I asked her why it bothered her so much. She said one or two made sense but it felt like a big fuck you to her that I was taking them all and couldn't stand the idea of the others going into indefinite storage. I told her it sounded like she was planning to throw them out once our backs were turned and she got pissed and told me I was insulting her by taking them all. I got mad and asked her why it's any of her fucking business and who is she to tell me what I can and can't do.
My dad told her I was told I could take whatever and she said she hadn't realized I'd take every one of them. Then she said I insulted her in her own home and asked dad why I had such an attitude toward her. I told her she was the one who interfered when she wasn't asked to. That became another fight and dad told us to cool off.
She's still annoyed that I took them all and still feels like it was a fuck you to her. She also said I was beyond rude to curse at her and ask her why it was her business, as if to say she doesn't also live here and isn't my family now.
