Mother Nature makes genetic modifications all the time. No different than how Covid-19 was created. Except that it was made in a lab by man instead of over natural time in the environment. Who's to say that Mother Nature couldn't have come up with Covid-19 herself given enough time?

As you have stated, "Covid-19 was created", meaning it did not occur naturally. And we don't know if Mother Nature would have created COVID19.

Imagine giving a woman a real/naturally-occurring diamond vs lab-made. One will get you laid plus more, while the other will get you a hard smack to the face.

"Fed officials fretted US inflation might not cool further unless economy slows down."

Not sure how they even remotely think inflation is cooling, as I am paying more and more each month for basic necessities.

Not sure how they think they can control inflation, when Jerome Powell himself admitted "we now understand how little we understand about inflation" in 06/2022.

My thoughts: someone escaping inhumane treatment by going to NK just doesn’t make sense, it’s going from bad to worse, unless the person has premeditated willingness to exchange sensitive info for a safe harbour.

He wasn't treated badly at all. He made some dumb mistakes in South Korea under the capacity as a US Military member and was/was going to be held accountable for his actions.

As I have stated before, I will not thank nor recognize him (or people that commit similar offenses) for his "service".

Trying to adjust to this salary-pay concept. My brain keeps telling me that I have to keep working and doing money-making activities, but then logic kicks in and tells me I get paid the same whether how much or little I work.

Just for sh!ts and giggles, I decided to text my phone number's neighbors (same number with the exception of the last digit being 1 up and 1 down). One person responded positively and carried out a full convo, while the other seemed to have blocked me....@$$hole.

"US home builders ramped up construction in July, beating expectations."

Great! We are about 15 years behind on building, so 179 more months like these to go to catch up

"Homeowners are tapping into their home equity to get cash."

I've always been a fan of cash-out refinances, BUT, doing it under the right circumstances and not falling for the temptation of falling further into debt.

Generally, it should make financial sense to borrow against your home equity to pay off other super high interest debts, thereby decreasing your monthly outgoing liabilities, BUT, don't pay them off only to use them again and rack up the debt that was paid off by the cash-out refi.
