The guy you're watching is 92 years old and yet still performing like he's in his mid 30s. Look at how vintage his guitar looks in his hands. How can you not love music? Willie Nelson performing 'Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys' live at Farm Aid 40 in Minneapolis at Huntington Bank Stadium, on September, 2025.

Is the AFL aware that the NFL, which has a Wildcard round, has 32 fkn teams. They are completely out of ideas.

Dr. Naomi Wolf explains why the Covid mRNA "vaccine" rollout is "the greatest crime against humanity in recorded history". "I wanted and wanted to believe for the longest time that it wasn't a depopulation agenda, but ultimately the evidence persuaded me, within the Pfizer documents, that that's exactly what it is." "In one section of the Pfizer documents, there's an over 80% spontaneous abortion or miscarriage rate." "They knew that it was damaging the hearts of minors." "But they just kept going... propagandising parents to vaccinate their minors, knowing they were injuring or killing them." Credit: @naomirwolf

There will come a time when everyone will be chasing hard assets, as hyperinflation hits. Most will wish they started stacking earlier. 👑🦍 #Gold #Silver

CENTRAL BANKS TO GOLD: The Buying Spree Is Just Getting Started 🚨 🇧🇷 Brazil Is BACK: ✅ Just bought 16 tonnes of gold in September - first purchase since 2021 ✅ Total reserves now: 145 tonnes ✅ Most active central bank in gold market last month The Global Trend Accelerates: ➡️ Czech National Bank: Added 2 tonnes in September (16 tonnes YTD) ➡️ BRICS+ Alliance: Russia, China, India, Brazil all accumulating ➡️ Historic Shift: Central banks now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries - first time since 1996 The Big Picture: ✅ Gold's share of central bank reserves has surged from 20% (1990s) to 40% today ✅ Still room to grow - heading back toward 1970s levels of 74% ✅ "Countries are telling themselves: 'We need to diversify away from the dollar' Why This Matters: ⚡ Geopolitical uncertainty driving permanent diversification ⚡ Gold is "not based on the credit or faith of any specific country" ⚡ Globalization ending = dollar diversification accelerating The Bottom Line: When central banks prefer gold over US Treasuries, you're witnessing the end of an era. #Gold #CentralBanks #BRICS #USD #Geopolitics #Investing #MonetarySystem

FOMO is accelerating at the central bank level; central bankers are also human beings (who tend to follow herd instinct when investing). If you are a central banker and are not buying Gold, you may not get an invitation to the party:
Central Bank of Brazil data shows that its #gold reserves rose by 16 tonnes in October - meaning it has added a total of 31 tonnes over the last two months. Its gold reserves now total 161 tonnes, accounting for 6% of total reserves.

Statistics out of ABS paint a damning picture. Australia could become a nation of renters by 2035, with renters now surpassing homeowners. Agenda 2030 and WEF mantra “You will own nothing and be happy” is in full steed. This is by design. Our government has sold us out.

There was over $3.2m in the Quaddy pool yesterday. It's not unreasonable to suggest that nearly $1m of that went through Tentyris in the first leg. Despite the fact that you selected Tentyris, the TAB said you were on Joliestar. That money was stolen from you.

When Howard left office in 2007, Australia had zero net debt and a $20 billion surplus. Today? Over $1.2 trillion in gross debt - $50,000 for every man, woman, and child. @corybernardi confidentialdaily.com/posts/…

Well Written just destroyed them in NZ 1000 Guineas like she might be special. The daughter of Written Tycoon beautifully prepared by Stephen Marsh and jockey Matt Cartwright stayed cool under pressure. Half share purchased by @YulongInvest last week. Real deal stuff this girl
