  What I love about Pluto is Percival Lowell thought that to account for an anomaly in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune there must be another planet nearby large enough to disrupt their orbits. So his assistant Clyde Tombaugh pointed his telescope to a likely spot where the planet could exist and found Pluto, which was perplexing because it was too small. (1/3)

  My Canadian bank holdings, almost worthless before Trump took office, are now stellar performers as Canadians (obviously) flee US banks. Dow Jones is at 48,892 Nikkei is at 53,560. As the dollar continues it's long slow going out of business sale under the MAGA administration other currency is worth more so expect more of the same trend. That said the price of eggs is way down. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/31/business/sell-america-dollar-financial-markets.html?unlocked_article_code=1...

  Democrat or Republican, liberal or conservative, very rich powerful people don't squeal on each other. I suspect the reason Epstein got let off legally and socially the first time was possibly he didn't rat on anyone powerful. Case closed. These are powerful people, the Clintons, Trump, the prince etc. literally have to get SCOTUS to weigh in and even then thin chance SCOTUS will hold them accountable. Trump is an extraordinarily nasty piece of work. (2/3)
