I remember talking with you on here about investments in March or April 2020 - just after oil had hit negative $40! I had bought some Royal Dutch Shell for my ISA, but then bottled it and swapped it into BT - you said 'that kinda sucks' and were obviously much more of an optimist than me. the two charts of RDSA and BT are below also, at the time RR was bombed out due to aviation stopped. You said about employer shares at the time - I remember you doing some tech job for an oil services firm, those pandemic shares must have gone up fourfold. Totally jealous valuations seem stretched to me now, most of my ISA is in 30 year gilts yielding about 5.4%, never gonna get rich staying out of the market, but there hasn't been a crash since the pandemic. Would be good for me if there was a crash on Trump's watch, while I'm all bonds. (so they cut rates to the floor and bond prices go up) Here's hoping for the biggest crash of all time

all the power used by cloud data centres to store everyone's old emails that they will never read again. I'm doing my bit towards total destruction with 6000 stored. Corporations must have just loads

Trump is helping to make the world realize asylum seekers are often just chancers.

Does anyone else feel that Arbtalk has become Political Hate Talk?
tree-fancier123 replied to Honda's topic in The Lounge
so you're mainly on about threads in the lounge - don't usually see much political hate in the tree health care, cimber's talk or large equipment threads. Wouldn't the lounge be better if the chat was all lovely, convivial, fraternizing even? Hi, I'm pleasant and nice & so are you! -
the actual videotape has been or will be destroyed accidentally on purpose No worse than the Hunter Biden laptop from hell Homan was recorded on hidden cameras accepting $50,000 in cash at a meeting spot in Texas on 20 September 2024, according to an internal summary of the case reviewed by MSNBC and sources who spoke to the outlet.

And you'd be likely to admit it, if it were correct? It's taken you 24 hours to respond to my post - better things to do with your time.

hmm - the video presenter and most of the comments are like ' no way would a 30-06 round not go right through - some even suggesting the guy on the roof was a cover for another shooter with a lower powered rifle Martin Luther King was shot with the same calibre rifle and surgeons could feel the bullet inside him while they tried to save him At 6:01 pm, just as King was leaning over the railing, he was shot by a .30-06 high-powered rifle. He fell backwards immediately. The bullet entered on the right side of his face and neck, and he began bleedThey were able to palpate the bullet in King's left back, just medial to his left scapula. ing profusely from the neck wound. Andrew Young was one of the first individuals to attend to King. He initially thought King was dead, but felt a pulse. As King lay bleeding on the second floor balcony of the motel, his head was placed on a pillow, his wound was covered with a towel, and a blanket was placed on his torso. He demonstrated some movement of his mouth, but he did not speak after the shooting and quickly lost consciousness.19 As the surgeons further explored the wound they could see that the bullet had injured the spine at the C7 and T1 vertebral levels. The spinal cord was also transected at that site. They were able to palpate the bullet in King's left back, just medial to his left scapula.

what make them famous so they can be headbutted and then stabbed to death?

good point about the TV shows - see below, this SP fellow, never worked as a tree cutter, always offering pay related advice to those who do - personally I think SP needs need to be pulled apart by giant octopuses ( but I know it's wrong of me to think that) and the 42, always rushes to help SP, not quite as bad as collaborating with the Nazis

ah well my error was not suspecting you had made an error - rather I thought you were somehow trying to argue that UK is just as bad as US for criminal gun shootings. So sorry

you posted about Birmingham UK in the President of US thread - why?

more than 10 times, my bad AI Overview The chance of being shot dead is dramatically higher in the U.S. than in the UK, with some sources indicating the U.S. rate can be hundreds of times greater. For example, in 2021, the U.S. rate was 4.31 deaths per 100,000 people, compared to the UK's rate of 0.013 per 100,000, which is over 300 times lower. The U.S. has one of the highest rates of gun violence among high-income countries, while the U.K. has one of the lowest. U.S. vs. UK Gun Death Rates U.S. (2021): 4.31 deaths per 100,000 people UK (2021): 0.013 deaths per 100,000 people Key Factors in the Disparity Gun Availability and Regulation: The U.S. has a much higher rate of gun ownership and less stringent gun control compared to the U.K., where obtaining a firearm involves a very rigorous licensing process. Societal Context: The U.S. experiences a wide range of gun violence, including mass shootings, while in the U.K., gun violence is primarily associated with criminal activity, such as gang violence. Global Standing: The U.S. is an outlier among high-income nations for its high levels of gun violence.

dunno, but the tape outside his cell a bit fishy, continuous footage over several hours, but with at least a minute missing maybe more. I thought even the FBI could have been involved. If you look through his Wiki page it says about the prosecutor or other official in the plea deal being told by higher up words ti the effect ' he belongs to intelligence its above your pay grade' Maybe far fetched, but they could have swapped out the cctv gaurd weeks before, then strangled him

after you posted that I (allegations after Epstein's death) - I read some of his Wikipedia page 1. Yes the girls were younger than I thought, as young as 14 in the indictment he was in jail for 2 various reports of surveillance camera systems in toilets and bedrooms of some of his properties - made me think he may have had tapes of associates with girls/women kept as 'insurance' 3 mulitiple sources say the tape of the communal area outside his cell has a minute or more missing - so powerful people may have had him killed, made to look like suicide (not probably Trump btw!, although it would have been bad for Trump he could at least have pardoned himself as was still Potus) the post mortem found broken bones sometimes associated with hanging, but more frequently strangulation 4 gory details about the sex in the indictment - most of the time Epstein got them to undress fully or partially, then jerked himself off, and touched and groped them while they gave him a massage, afterwards paying them hundreds of dollars each time - of course it's bad to do it with 14 year olds, but the wiki detailed several older girls who went to the island 18 year olds, some were really beautiful. 5 If you've got money women is probably the best thing to spend it on - keep it bang on 18 and above to avoid problems - even though Henry 8th got away with marrying Katherine Howard when she was 16

Anyone recognise this tree?
tree-fancier123 replied to Doug Tait's topic in Tree Identification pictures
I didn't know about the asymmetric leaf base, but the corky bark with wings made me think elm. Narrowing the species down would be the difficult bit. -
It's like Taxi Driver starring Steven P as Travis, blows the pedo guy away, cool as a cucumber

If these young women were 16 or 17 at the time it is not really any different to Burlusconi and Ruby The Heart Stealer. Child sex offender - seems shagging anyone under 18 in the states is enough to earn that label
