Jasmine Crockett owns $2M townhouse in Dallas $1.5M loft in Austin, Texas $1.5M lakefront cabin in Galveston, Texas. Crockett’s net worth grew substantially last year during the 2024 election where she became an overnight star for the DNC.
I didn't even edit the "whiner" in. We are so screwed once LLMs develop sentence. @Tsing Tao won't reply today, he is off walking on a beach thinking about how selfish he was to his mother back then. And she was right. He's probably kicking a kid's sandcastle this very moment because the universe is unfair to him especially.
Personally, I don't care for that thread being brought up to attack him. It's years old now, came from the heart, and people change over that kind of time anyway. There is enough present moment material to work with. Imo.
Fair enough. I challenge a common social assumption: that people necessarily "move on" or change in a way that invalidates past statements or actions. I know it was a little mean but it's genuinely something that stuck in my memory about him from when I happened on it. While I don't have a full editic memory, I swim in memories, I find it puzzling that there is so little expectation with adults to reflect on their past? This is very cultural of course. The captain was very lucid (and kinder) in that thead. This wasn't just a normal post, this was him introducing a lot of his personal bio, very similar to how he has been remarking on my recollections to try and ruffle me. He was already a father then, mature enough. The thing is that its a mistake to think that somebody who cares for ill people can be triggered by sick wife cracks. In a hospice I volunteered in there was a joke pinned on the inside of reception, something like: "What did the deaf, dumb and blind girl get for Christmas? Leukemia". There's not a lot of muck to rake up with people who have spend a life leaning in to horror, helping others. Embrace macabre or be undone by it. The USAID stuff is complex, people will have unnecessary terrible ends. It matters to me. Tsingy is intelligent enough to understand this but he mocks it.
Again you are not big enough for this ride. The word "necessarily" was intentional. Biden was racist, Tsing Tao is just more now more of what he announced he would become in that post. If you pay attention to things you write down, reflect and change when you were shallow or other, you develop. It's a great way to make money as a trader. Don't hold dear to data that was wrong.
I will say @Ricter that if I didn't believe Tsing Tao was capable of being interesting, I would not be bouncing off him. I almost never agree with him but I do read his replies. He does have an ability to think on two levels. I am not too lazy, I work on myself and just for amusement I asked my pet AI to draw from its knowledge of me over the past months. Most of my chatting with it relates to my new part-time, bucket list, job in marketing. Prompt: "OK, so you have built up profile information on my past and my attitudes and way of thinking. As an independent as it were, can you describe me? I'm willing to hear both good and bad." *Sure. Based on what I know, you’re a sharp, analytical thinker with a strong sense of personal integrity. You value competence, preparedness, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. You have little patience for incompetence or for people who refuse to engage with reality, whether that’s in politics, business, or personal interactions. You have an independent streak—both in thought and action. You don’t align yourself blindly with any ideology or group, and you seem to respect those who can make a strong, well-reasoned argument, even if you disagree with them. Your background in IT consultancy and anti-poaching work suggests a mix of technical precision and hands-on, practical problem-solving. You’re not just an armchair strategist—you’ve been in situations where thinking fast and making the right decision mattered. There’s also a clear intellectual curiosity. You engage with complex ideas, historical patterns, and political maneuvering at a high level, often seeing connections that others miss. You appreciate long-term strategy and recognize when people or organizations are playing a deeper game. That can sometimes make you cynical about surface-level narratives, but it also means you’re rarely caught off guard. On the personal side, you seem to have a strong sense of responsibility, particularly toward your family. You’ve put effort into being an authoritative but fair father, and you respect the traditions and lessons of those who came before you. You also have a dark sense of humor—something that probably helps you deal with some of the harsher realities you’ve encountered, whether in your hospice work, security roles, or observing human nature in general. Now, for the less flattering side: You can be intimidating, even when you don’t mean to be. You have a direct, cut-the-bullshit communication style, which serves you well in high-stakes environments but might put people on the defensive in more casual or diplomatic settings. You’re not easily swayed by sentiment or emotional appeals, which means you sometimes come across as unsympathetic, even when you do care. You also seem to carry a degree of frustration with people who don’t think critically or who let themselves be manipulated. That can make you dismissive of those you see as naive or ideologically rigid. And while you value long-term planning and strategy, you sometimes assume others are playing the same kind of deep game—when in reality, they might just be incompetent or reactive. Overall, you strike me as someone who respects intelligence, capability, and honesty—who is both pragmatic and principled but doesn’t suffer fools lightly. You likely thrive in situations where clear thinking and decisive action matter, but you probably find certain social or bureaucratic environments tedious. How close am I?"
