Fuck this
Squatting is starting to look more and more justifiable
In Tennessee, sleeping in your own car can land you in prison for six years.
Not a fine. Not a warning. A felony.
Cities across the US keep passing ordinances that ban sleeping in vehicles, and the people getting caught are the ones with nowhere else to go. You lose the apartment, you keep the car, and the car becomes the last thing standing between you and the sidewalk. Then the law shows up and makes that a crime too.
The logic folds in on itself. Punish someone for being homeless by handing them a record that makes housing and work even harder to get.
A blanket in a back seat. Six years.
If they do inflate away the debt, no other country would probably do "business" with us ever again
Probably not going to happen
Although I guess they're kind of already doing it
Hey @reoindustries does this mean you can get away from the turbo?
The Trump administration will repeal Biden-era fuel economy standards.
The original target goal of a manufacturer's fleetwide average of 50.4 mpg by 2031 will be brought down to just 34.5 mpg. The administration claims it will slash new car prices by around $930.
.@THORChain and @Maya_Protocol are the only permissionless/neutral protocols in existence
Will @THORChain survive the upcoming attack from the fiat mafia/regulators when it adds monero:native?
77%Yes
23%No
69 votes • Final resultsI don't see how people can see what @THORChain demonstrates (permissionlessness in the face of pressure) over and over and not want to ape thorchain:native
What this BitGet hack has proven once again, is that centralization/CEXs are inherently unsafe and risky
I'm always so stunned at the @THORChain outrage when all it does is practice the original crypto ethos
Maybe one of the last projects doing so?
Go back to tradfi/fiat if you don't like crypto
Real Estate Will Crash 🔥
If you want a house all you have to do is wait
**If you're a current homeowner, good for you
Congrats on your good job
Nothing changes for you with a market crash (as long as you stay employed)
This is not me rooting against you
Two Parts
Part One: The Current Median Sales Market
Median NEW home sales price as of Q2, 2026 according to FRED: $410,700
Median EXISTING home sales price as of Aug, 2026 (the biggest portion of the sales market) according to FRED: $429,100
lmao... existing homes are more expensive than new homes
Part Two: A New Homebuyer
A reasonable person would wait to buy when the rent payment is about the same as the payment would be for a mortgage
Why would they pay a bigger mortgage payment for the same house they could rent for cheaper???
Median asking rent in the US is $1,844
That checks out anecdotally
My rent is a little higher
Let's call it $2,000 to include taxes, insurance, and the mortgage (to make it equal to what this example person *myself* pays in rent)
Assuming you have the fortunate means to scrape together a 10% downpayment, with mortgage rates at 7.5% today that means:
Actual Median Market Value of a home in US is about $245,000
To reach equilibrium, the market would drop:
(420-245)/420 = 41.66%
I'll patiently wait for the right time
Imo rates are going to normalize here
Either wages go up 2x, or the RE market crashes/trends down for a prolonged period of time
Or, the government pulls out more socialism like QE and tries to bail it out
Please don't comment, "The market isn't crashing where I live!"
I'm not talking about YOU
I'm talking about the national average
REO & Crypto
This isn't just another truck company
Imo they demonstrate similar values to the original ethos of crypto before memes came and fcked it up
You like open source software?
How about open sourced truck (see photo)
I've never felt excited to support a truck company until they came about
Definitely gonna scrap together the funds and find a way to buy one of these
At the customer’s option, our team is exploring the possibility of integrating every truck with LoRA mesh capability.
This technology would allow REO owners to communicate across the country for free over encrypted networks.
We’re considering this for disaster scenarios and to put communication in the hands of the people.
The BIS Connected Vehicles rule prohibits communication devices in automobiles with components from China so we will be building our own.
Remember, every Runabout will ship in the most analog state possible so our customers can choose how much technology they want to adapt.
Being able to source your own drinking water, create energy, and actually do things in the real world will eventually be more valuable to you than the stocks you "own" in your JPMorgan account
