The issue is that relative to gold or silver, Bitcoin is very volatile. A crashing bitcoin could endanger the reserve, forcing the government to double down, making the volatile nature a bigger issue.
Yes gold is somewhat volatile but compared to Bitcoin, it is super stable. And ofc gold and silver are real resources that you can do for their physical properties.

There are a lot of moving parts here.
My parents and grandparents are fully aware of my lack of belief. So my parents won’t be shocked that my children don’t believe. I don’t mind letting e.g. my mother tell them about Jesus because realistically, humans believe what their environment believes and for my children, I am mostly their environment. So I don’t think some exposure to christian beliefs will have a bad influence and my counter-influence would be present, so my children can choose.
My so’s parents and grandparents don’t know about our lack of belief. Her mom is aware of my lack of belief in a religion. Now that makes the whole children thing more complicated but… We are a couple thousand kilometers away… So… I hope they accept that we don’t want to provide our children with any religious education until they are ready to understand it. So at an age at which children are able to lie in the worst case.
I love when not beating your child is used as a flex.
Congratulations! You are not THAT kind of asshole.
That explains why there are so many of them. It is for the WAP.
“traveling” yikes.
That is one way to say, you think wealth is attractive.
I have traveled quite a bit and I like it a lot, but it is no hobby. For it to be a hobby, I would have to have a lot more money.
Once or even twice a year, is hardly a hobby.
Oh and that is fine but then you have to ask yourself if you want to have a partnership with bad sex. If not, break up, or “teach” by communicating what you want, what is good and what is bad. There is no alternative, accept bad sex, break up, teach.
(Technically, you could let them have sex outside of the partnership to study, but… Well, not my cup of tea)
Which is why I am almost certain that there is a reason why they import raw sugar
I understand your perspective but I want to ask a question, not to you, but for you to think about it. What motivation causes the imports?
If corn syrup is a replacement for whatever they are doing, why are they importing raw sugar? If raw sugar is cheaper than you would expect them to already use sugar for everything and not corn syrup, and switching to corn syrup would be an increase in cost . If raw sugar costs the same, import is additional paperwork, why import? Raw sugar is more expensive, why would they pay more?
Raw sugar can’t be replaced easily in their use case? Now that makes sense.
No. That is the point.
Sugar is “fancy” as in “you don’t need sugar for your diet”.
Based on what I find online, the us import about $2B in raw-sugar, while some (about 100M) is exported again.

How much “processed” sugar leaves the us again? I am not sure. Maybe all of it.
Sugar too. That ain’t healthy and is kinda fancy but… Can you see them losing their shit over sugar prices? I do.
Tomatoes imports were 2.5B in 2023.
Apparently the us imports 15% of it’s food supply.
If you see paying for sexual services as consensual, he probably did.
If you don’t, he probably didn’t.
I think “alienated” is a strong indicator of the negative perspective of the Author to the written text. I don’t think people use “alienated” in a positive setting. So I don’t think it is misleading at all, tbh
There is a difference.
A lot of people who claim to be liberal, just aren’t left wing. The good example is the FDP party in Germany.
To quote Wikipedia: The FDP’s political position has variously been described as centrist, centre-right, and right-wing. The FDP has been described as liberal, conservative-liberal, classical-liberal, and liberal-conservative. Other sources have described the party as libertarian or right-libertarian.
There are left wing liberals, but don’t act like they usually call themselves liberal.
Which is?
Now I feel guilty. Love to you my friend
No pressure but where meme 👀
Honestly I don’t get it either. I think she needs professional mental health care immediately or we shouldn’t feel bad for her tears as they aren’t real. I hope we don’t have to feel bad for her but I am afraid that she needs help, a lot of it.
