@Meathead here's a picture of Rittenhouse in the front row of a Trump rally:

It's certainly fair to state that this dorky high-school dropout is a budding MAGA right-winger. Get your facts straight, clod.

Use your common sense. It takes less of a toll for a sugar baby who sees only one client a few times per month. As compared to an AMP worker or TJ brothel worker who fucks two dozen guys per day. It must take an awful psychological and physical toll.

"In October, 25 out of every 100,000 residents of heavily Trump counties died from Covid, more than three times higher than the rate in heavily Biden counties (7.8 per 100,000). October was the fifth consecutive month that the percentage gap between the death rates in Trump counties and Biden counties widened."

lol, I wouldn't run around with your hair on fire, worrying about the US becoming Venezuela.
The year-over-year inflation rate looks high, but if you use a window that goes back, instead, two years, the inflation rate looks more benign. I know that's true for energy prices, where we had depressed market prices in 2020. Inflation is nothing like the 80s so far; it's still possible that inflation will subside when supply chains open up. Nobody knows.
I'm not paying that much attention, but I read the Fed is planning to finally start tapering QE bond purchases, which is probably a preamble to the Fed raising rates. Pulling back on QE purchases is an experiment and who knows how much that will tank the overvalued stock market? OTOH, raising interests rates is welcome for those that want to save; it may be possible, once again, to have a bond ladder that pays something above pathetic.

Regardless of the trial outcome and the law, this repulsive kid is not a hero. Stories I've read about Rittenhouse reinforce stereotypes about guys who fetishize assault weapons. He's on social media posing with his guns and taking backyard target practice. He's bullied by his peers. He's photographed in the front row of a Trump rally. Example of the worst kind of gun-worshiping, unattractive, moronic, loser.
It's laughable that some of you consider him a patriot. Kid should have stayed home, masturbating with his assault rifles. His life is ruined no matter what the outcome of the trial -- and that's what he deserves.

I could post ten research studies showing that you're less safe by having a gun in the house. And the rest of you could post ten studies showing just the opposite. Coming to any conclusion based on actual data and statistics is hopeless because the subject is so emotional.
My gut feeling? I'm with @jackslash that strippers aren't known for being calm, rational, decision-makers and that drugs & alcohol make the situation worse. I probably wouldn't want to be around an armed stripper. That goes for SBs, too.

You're missing the point, @Mutty. Your article goes on to explain that the AMP workers are the ones being victimized:
"She said the people who are trafficked in IMBs are often vulnerable immigrants who came to the US so they could make more money for their families or help sick relatives and are often tricked into working at massage businesses under the premise that they are traditional spas. "

Back to Stablecoins: With 10-yr treasuries paying 1.6%, if someone tells you there's a liquid investment, tied to the dollar, paying 9% you should wonder what would happen during a crisis when everyone wants their money back.
If only a few Stablecoin investors lose everything, nobody gives a shit. But with over $100B out there in Stablecoins, it begins to present a systemic risk. That's why regulation is needed and why you should think twice before investing.

I've done stripper ITC/OTC and online sugaring. I consider AMPs out of the question because AMP workers are tricked into coming here, basically indentured servants and sex slaves. AMPs are the McDonalds of the sex industry.
I got tired of ITC very quickly because of the blaring music, being rushed, being cramped in some semi-private closet, and having bouncers nearby.
So that leaves stripper OTC and sugaring. There's a lot of overlap b/w sugaring and OTC (with a repeat stripper); I don't think of these options as separate and distinct. The best analogy is that sugaring is like shopping online at Amazon whereas stripper OTC is more like shopping at your local Mom&Pop or chain. You can buy a pair of socks on Amazon and get 1000x more choices than going to the local REI -- but going to the REI ensures that you can try them on before buying. Likewise, sugaring reaches vastly more girls and a different demographic than your local club. The downside is that you might end up catfished occasionally at a few meet-and-greets. I've had way better experiences with sugaring.
When several decades separate you and your sweetheart, I don't consider sugaring a variation on dating. When there's a huge age difference, sugaring is simply a euphemism for prostitution.

Should be "crypto version of money-market mutual funds"
discussion comment

Interesting topic, but there's been a lot written about the need to regulate stablecoins. Yellen and Powell have both called for the urgent need to regulate stablecoins. The basic idea is that stablecoins look like an electronic version of money-market mutual funds, which have needed government intervention twice in the last decade. It's the wild-west right now, so invest in stablecoins at your own risk.
This is from the Economist which is behind a paywall. There are dozens of similar articles:
"Why regulators should treat stablecoins like banks"

While it's utterly none of my business, @Orange did ask for feedback.
I think 99% + of women would feel repulsed and angry at the idea of having their husband go on a weekend trip with another woman. Her reaction isn't so much jealousy as it is open and in-your-face disrespect for her and the wedding vows. OTOH, I think most marriages could survive the act of getting drunk and banging some unattractive skank and co-worker.
Some professional couples live apart because of job constraints -- but I get the idea that's not the case here. If I had to guess, @Orange is on his way to divorce number two.

@Ilbbie's link is outdated and the proposal has been increased from $600 to $10,000 annually. Still that's a pathetically small amount and it probably would ensnare strippers, SBs, small-time PLs, etc... Big-time tax cheats have better ways to hide income than a bank account. No?

That's Senator John Kennedy on the YouTube clip. He's famous for saying that he'd rather eat weed killer than support Obamacare. He also sounds like a cartoon-character version of a hick politician from the deep south. As it turns out he's a smart guy and graduated from Oxford. He puts on the hick-from-the-sticks cartoon-character persona to appeal to his Southern base.
What do you think, @Ilbbie? He's kinda pudgy and homely, too.
