Oil into negative prices.

Tyr comes across as the left wing equivalent of a right-wing conspiracy nut when he's talking about political actors he doesn't like.

Oh the irony.

An interesting comparison.  Massachusetts on Sunday had 1,705 new cases and a total of 38,077 with 146 new deaths for a total number of deaths of 1,706.  That number is striking because it is almost exactly the number of deaths in all of Canada just recently reported by the CBC of 1,709.  Canada has a total of a little over 36,000 cases.

Should have known CC would use a crisis to cheer about how great his country is. Why? No one knows.

I'm surprised how small the population of Massachusetts is. Boston is a lot smaller then I thought it was.

Brb, driving to Cushing, Oklahoma so I can buy 2,400 barrels of West Texas crude with my sweet, sweet Trump bucks and then sell them in September at $30 a pop.

I didn't get any Trump bucks.  I can only buy an infinite amount of oil.

It is a comparison. And troubling if you are American.  But go ahead and deflect.  It is what a lot of your fellow citizens do.

I think you're developing a bit of a derangement there.  It's frankly a little concerning.

Yeah, don't get concerned about how things are going in your country.  Definitely be concerned about people pointing it out.

Yeah it's bizarre and sad.

Massive glut and full storage facilities.

Can I store my 2,400 barrels where you're keeping your infinite barrels?

Hell yeah, I'm here now and they're giving barrels away like candy, Yee haw!!! *Shoots randomly into the air*

Trump gave you $59,640?

Boston proper is dinky.  Boston Land is made up of a bunch of independent towns like Newton, Cambridge, Somerville, etc.  DC is like that too.  Most people who say they "live in DC" actually live 20 miles outside the city limits.

It's not, what is the population density of Massachusetts vs that of populated Canada?
