I didn't agree with everything Charlie Kirk said and did, but a least he had a set of core values defined in his mental model of the world, which make sense to me, which can be defended and articulated to younger people and others.
Trump man, it's just wherever the wind blows.

If you don't they'll think you're a pussy and triple down on their taunts. :lol:

For real, young people have absolutely no grounding in reality and Conservativism has become "I firmly believe whatever Dear Orange said 2 minutes ago".

Hollywood is a predator's dream. Unaccountable, powerful men lording over young, naive people and their parents, who will do almost ANYTHING for fame and money.

I knew kids who got degrees in meteorology and got jobs at ranches not TV weather bunnies

Interesting. ever work out there yourself?

You can have incredibly great years financially and then be ruined nearly overnight. My family ranch almost went under during COVID after a buyer went out of business. It is better now, bordering on good because there is a stable buyer

Boom and bust, just like the oil business. Do y'all try to have side businesses to even out the highs and lows?
I think most reasonable people know that the big profit in this business is going to the meat-packers and not the ranchers.
Glad your ranch survived bud, here's hoping y'all make a killing this year :cheers: :cheers:

Apple horrifically missed the AI boat.

What's worse is that Jobs had the right idea with Siri.
Cook is a good manager and great at creating shareholder value with cost reductions, creating what is probably the gold standard for supply chain of any major US company, management of personnel, etc. But it seems like he always misses the mark on innovation. I think lucked out on the airpods, those seem to be of the few "innovations" brought forth by apple in the last 10 years.
Jobs was the ideas man and it absolutely shows.

The Jasmine Crockett of Ranches. Congrats on the microplastics

I don't want to buy a ranch, so this thread should not be on the money board.
What's it like to own a ranch? Do y'all still use cowboys to round up the cattle? Or maybe cowgirls in this day and age :pimp:?
Is it profitable? Do you keep exotics around to make more money or for hunting leases? Did you inherit it or did you buy it as an investment? Do y'all sell 1/2 a cow or a 1/4 cow or "humanely slaughtered" beef to the hipsters to up your margins? Do you love it?

SIAP

All humans were pagans at one point, monotheism seems to be a fairly recent development.
