Want some metrics. Snitz fired up Gemini. The point here, is if you want the air you

I asked Gemini to take a look at the stock portion of Harvard's endowement. Holy sheet! More info below after the story. Ironic that most students and faculty at this institution hate Musk. Haha.

You may be wondering why Chicago's home prices are rising faster than Baltimore even though our real estate tax have ramped like crazy (partially to offset the cratering of office valuations since the pandemic).

As usual the WSJ doesn't provide any context for this story. Slackers. That's why you have me and my trust sidekick Claude (see additional analysis after the story). These two whack jobs, represent about 24% of the 2,000 acres needed to build the data center. It's unclear how many of their neighbors want to sell, but it appears the majority do. Whether these ladies end up ruining it for everyone or the buyer decides to build on a slightly smaller scale is anybodies guess. I

Sorry, I gotta cry foul here. If you make up a bunch of sheet to promote your life into a best-selling novel (merchandising your status as a minority) and get called out for lying...don't put 100% of the blame on the mob that jumps on. It's a cruel world out there. Sure, get a certain amount of criticism for being a literary jackass. Do I contemplate taking my own life? No, I simply ignore my detractors and continue to shovel filth. Then again, nobody read this garbage so I'm
