@BzhClair I was short on an exchange but your P/L variations are there. — PolitiTweet.org

So far, the Crypto plunge is like a slow train wreck, since the cryptidiots are too green, naive, and financially unsophisticated to realize that they are effectively bust. (Note that you can't short cryptos on exchanges because they may not be solvent to pay variation margins.) — PolitiTweet.org

Is it me or the NYT? Since the L got 2% of the vote and others have 49% AND one needs >50% to win, with 89% of votes, impossible to have a winner (89% of 2%, the play is for .22% of total). Hence guaranteed runoff, no? https://t.co/OrNzfNUq36 — PolitiTweet.org

Currently, my principal use of Twitter is to fight disinformation, faulty reasoning, BS vending & logical mistakes spread on ...Twitter. If Twitter closes, I won't need to use Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

There is no such thing as a "liquidity" crisis with cryptos. A liquidity crisis is for something that has some hard intrinsic value. This is just a crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

@crypto_bitlord7 Don't worry. Since you paid her the hush money in Euros not BTC, it's all going to be OK. — PolitiTweet.org

2) With of course the pleasure of finally tasting olive oil from trees I *planted* myself (which BTW beats bitcoin). ["I planted" in the sense of "pontem fecit"; unlike Latin, the English language does not convey some subtleties--زرّعت\ زرعت] https://t.co/7ClyH70S70 — PolitiTweet.org

If you're going to eat meat, eat the real thing (not just muscles). That's where both nutrition and taste lie.

If you have to choose between an Ivy League educated lawyer and someone of the same rank who went to Pace or St John U., pick the latter without hesitation. Simply, an Ivy League education can hide incompetence for a very, very long time. — PolitiTweet.org
