Thread with excerpts from Charles Murray's "Losing Ground" (1984), a book on the failure of US welfare and social policy 1950-1980 to achieve its goals.
¿Has tenido pérdidas en bolsa o en productos financieros?
¿Sabes con qué puedes compensarlas?
¿Y cuándo caducan?
Hoy lo explicamos todo 🧵
¿Qué es una pérdida patrimonial?
Se produce cuando transmites algo por menos de lo que pagaste por ello. La diferencia entre el valor de adquisición y el de transmisión genera una ganancia o una pérdida patrimonial.
Esto aplica a la venta de acciones, fondos de inversión, inmuebles, criptomonedas, oro...
En todos los casos Hacienda lo trata igual: vendes algo, y el resultado es positivo o negativo.
Esta mañana he encontrado una nómina vieja de mi padre revisando papeles de casa.
Marzo de 1992, ingeniero jovencito con 6 años de experiencia. Casado, con dos hijos e hipoteca en Madrid.
Por curiosidad me he puesto a hacer cálculos, y me ha dado permiso para compartirlos.
El bruto del mes eran 615.704 pesetas. Ajustando a IPC, hoy serían 120.000 € brutos al año equivalentes. Un ingeniero con ese mismo perfil cobra ahora entre 35.000 y 45.000 €.
Un tercio. Un puto tercio del sueldo real que tenía mi padre con su edad.
Pero donde la trampa se ve más clara es en la fiscalidad.
Mi padre, sumando IRPF y Seguridad Social, soportaba una carga fiscal efectiva del 27% sobre su bruto (24% IRPF + 2,7% SS, porque cotizaba al tope máximo). Le quedaban netos el equivalente a 87.000 €.
Un ingeniero hoy con 40.000 € brutos soporta una carga total del 22% (16% IRPF + 6,5% SS) y le quedan apenas 31.000 € netos.
Mi padre vivía con casi tres veces más renta disponible.
En el mismo país. En la misma ciudad.
¿Que hoy se paga menos porcentaje? Lógico, ganando un tercio, claro que el porcentaje baja.
Por el camino, eso sí, se cargaron las deducciones que protegían a la clase media como por ejemplo la deducción por vivienda habitual que desapareció para nuevas compras en 2013.
Y si por algún milagro alcanzas hoy los 120k equivalentes que cobraba mi padre, soportarías un 35% de carga fiscal total en vez de su 27%.
Ocho puntos más por el mismo sueldo real.
¿De verdad vivimos mejor?
Los datos dicen una cosa. La narrativa que nos venden, otra.
Esto seguro que le gusta a @Jongonzlz (me da miedo haber hecho mal los cálculos pero me los ha corregido Claude, las culpas a la IA 🤷🏻♂️)
Mikhaila Peterson says she went through “two years of pure hell” when she decided to stop taking SSRIs.
She didn’t need the drugs anymore. Her paleo/keto diet had put her depression into remission.
The first few days off the medication, she felt “on top of the world.”
But once week two hit, her life “turned upside down.”
For years, she blamed her “intolerable symptoms” on what she ate.
Little did she know… she was actually experiencing severe antidepressant withdrawal.
One of the symptoms Mikhaila experienced during her own SSRI withdrawal is the same condition her dad is suffering from right now: akathisia.
Akathisia is an extremely distressing neurological condition that makes you feel an unbearable inner restlessness and agitation.
This condition, she describes as “the worst thing I’ve ever seen anyone go through…”
When Mikhaila experienced it, she described it as being “overwhelmed with a sense of impending doom that was stronger than anything you can naturally feel.”
“It felt like I was falling into a volcano while being chased by a bear,” she said.
But as bad as her experience was, her dad is currently going through a form of akathisia that’s even worse. 🧵
Last week, Mikhaila shared an emotional update on her father, Jordan Peterson’s health.
He is dealing with a recurrence of akathisia stemming from an old psych med–induced neurological injury.
Mikhaila explained that this is a flare-up of a neurological injury caused by benzodiazepines, primarily clonazepam, that he took around 2019–2020. He has been completely off all psychiatric medications since January 2020.
The recent symptoms intensified last summer after he was diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) from mold exposure. About a month later, he developed pneumonia and sepsis, which further worsened the condition and triggered the akathisia.
“Dad’s been suffering from an old neurological injury that’s more recently been causing akathisia,” Mikhaila said.
“Akathisia is the worst thing I’ve ever seen anyone go through… it’s catastrophic.”
She stresses that this is a neurological injury from past psychiatric medication use, not from any current medications. Her dad has been psych med-free for six years.
But for the past 8–9 months, akathisia has taken over his life without warning or relief, making this an extremely difficult time for the entire family.
The serotonin theory worked because it was simple.
It gave patients a clear explanation, doctors a straightforward framework, and the pharmaceutical system a powerful way to communicate value. Depression became something measurable, correctable, and treatable with a targeted intervention.
But simplicity can also obscure complexity.
Because the brain isn’t a system governed by a single chemical variable—it’s a dynamic network of interacting pathways, feedback loops, and adaptive responses that change over time.
And when you try to reduce that system to one variable, you risk misunderstanding what your intervention is actually doing.
Newcastle Green Party election candidate Tina Ion’s racist anti-Jewish and anti-Afghan posts are shocking enough, but she is also behind a spoof Anne Frank account on Meta’s Threads platform that takes her antisemitic bile to another level altogether. 🧵 1/4
Using the handle “thereal.anne.frank”, Tina Ion has posted a series of Nazi-grade rants demanding “Israel must be eradicated. Even if it means killing every single Zionist.” She declares: “They are vermin. And vermin needs eliminated [sic] so it can’t harm children.” 2/4
The Greens’ candidate for Newcastle City Council’s Blakelaw & Cowgate ward mocks Israeli Jews, claiming that “Even when death’s a good chance they won’t skip a bargain”, and shares explicit fantasies about how she would like to see them die. 3/4

🔥 Third strike in a month: Ukraine hit the Tuapse oil refinery again.
24 tanks destroyed, 4 damaged — over 61% of storage wiped out. Tonight’s raid ignited new large-scale fires.
The strategic Black Sea export hub is being systematically dismantled.

🔥 A regional state of emergency has been declared across the entire Tuapse district.
The governor of Kuban and Putin’s Emergency Minister Alexander Kurenkov have been dispatched to the scene as the crisis becomes impossible for the Kremlin to hide.
There is something about Nigeria 🇳🇬 that someone needs to research: its ability to elicit speech in non verbal autistic children. A friend just told me about her 5 year old daughter, who had never uttered a word while they were in Canada. However, after just few months in Nigeria
her daughter has started talking and playing, things she had never done before.
I saw another video on IG
Some months ago with almost the same testimony. Is it that community rapport in Nigeria is what makes the difference?
Or is there more to it? I know it is depressing
living abroad, as all we do is work, work, work. The hospitals aren't helping either; medications have turned into experiments. They use them to carry out their multi billion dollar pharmaceutical product research. Because tell me, why is a child non verbal, not eating normal
Petróleo alto e riscos macroeconômicos em 2026
By Dan Kawa
29Abr26
A bolsa do Brasil tem passado por um momento de realização de lucros, que pode ser explicada pela saída de pequena parte do fluxo de capital estrangeiro que havia entrado no Brasil este ano:
Com o petróleo mais alto e sem uma solução definitiva para o conflito, o mercado começa a desenhar cenário alternativos para preços estruturalmente mais elevados. Segundo o JPM, Um fechamento mais prolongado do Estreito de Ormuz elevaria significativamente o risco macro global, com um cenário adverso em que o Brent poderia chegar a US$150/barril nos próximos meses. Esse choque seria maior que o de 2022 e mais próximo dos episódios de 1979 e 1990, pressionando inflação e reduzindo crescimento. Pelas estimativas citadas, o impacto poderia adicionar mais de 2 p.p. à inflação e retirar cerca de 1,6 p.p. do PIB global em 2026, colocando em risco a continuidade da expansão econômica.
A saída dos Emirados Árabes Unidos da OPEP, anunciada ontem, representa um risco estrutural relevante para o cartel, pois reflete um desalinhamento crescente entre membros sobre estratégia de produção, com o país buscando aumentar significativamente sua oferta mesmo ao custo de preços mais baixos. O movimento pode abrir precedente para outras saídas e enfraquecer a disciplina do grupo, elevando a probabilidade de aumento de produção global e até de uma nova guerra de preços, especialmente com a Arábia Saudita. No curto prazo, em um cenário de normalização após o conflito e reabertura do Estreito de Ormuz, esse aumento de oferta tende a aliviar pressões de preços, reforçando a ideia de que o poder de coordenação da OPEP está se deteriorando.

This is usually due to a May Thorne (Left common iliac vein compression) or Left renal vein compression.
The pain of PCS is usually described as a deep pelvic pain or pressure.
It is usually worse on standing (inc the VCs and allows for blood pooling)
It is very easy to kiss because VCS are thought to be rare and not thought of as a diagnosis. Even when present on CT they are often missed (as again thought to be rare).

His "fortress" is cracking and half his decrees are now secret — so Russians can't see how badly the regime is failing.
Here's what he's hiding 👇 [1/11]
There have been no precedents to this blackout in modern history. In 2023, Putin set a record: 49.5% of presidential decrees were secret. Even last year, almost 45% of his orders remain hidden from public view. Half of the Russian government's actions are now officially "invisible."
[2/11]
What gets classified tells you what they fear. Examples:
➜ The "Cannibal Battalions": Secret decrees likely mask the mass pardoning of murderers and rapists sent to the front. The state calls them heroes but keeps the paperwork hidden because the public would revolt.
@Yeop445187 You need to bring up Jersh's fondness for Etna more and how even though he was 15 when he said she was "fucking hot" she was clearly not "age appropriate" like the shota catboys supposedly were
Also the likelihood he continued to find her attractive past this age. Going to use threadreaderapp to bypass any possible shadowbans
