|content=I understand that [[CPI]] is 7.5%.
 
Different question. Look at the spread.
 
Tell me how we got 7.5%? Do you have any idea what 7.5% means?
 
Now listen to who repeats this number.
 
If they said 7.57348977% ± 0.0000003% you would be laughing.
 
We should be laughing, not nodding.

|content=[[Morals|Moral]]: some people seem to see meaning &amp; pattern everywhere. Others seem to demand proof because they believe that it’s all likely our imaginations. Don’t be like those groups of people.
Take on the true burden of trying to sort out what is real but hidden vs what is imagined.🙏

|content=This is a simple model of what goes wrong in most models of “conspiracy theorizing”. I don’t know how to say that the building pictured is almost certainly an “architectural conspiracy” to spell AIX while the gate is not. I have no idea about the crossed metal beams.
