such a what the fuck moment. Women in childbirth are going through a lot, but "set me and my baby both on fire" had to be the absolute most retarded, least believable way they could have played the scene. also the least ethically acceptable choice in that situation, just absolutely retarded

The dwarves really are great. With the inexplicably black-out-of-nowhere dwarf queen I'm just trying to pretend this is like a high school production, and there was that one black chick, and they had to find a part for her even though its hilariously miscast, and she ends up knocking it out of...

closed the last of my inverse ETFs today. It was a fun ride down but I'm not confident it goes any lower, so this is my stop. what a great week

US10Y 3.7%, lol

Otherland by Tad Williams. Cmon its even got a black female protagonist, how can it go wrong. Its like made for 2022.

Had to google, the diagrams look weird as fuck, gonna need to investigate further to know whether I'm rustled

This article for once notices the central cause of the problem with modern Academia: https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/academic-administrators-strangling-universities and then they come to the stupidest possible conclusion: get faculty involved in all this...

The dwarves really are great. Even if Durins wife is ridiculously, fish out of water, fat man in a skinny jacket level of miscast - she does a damn good job with it. I wish anyone acted like an elf in this show half as well as she acts like a dwarf.

Fucking smoke alarms deserve a rant thread of their own. That sound. When I hear that sound I am compelled to eliminate it as quickly as possible. Shit will probably get broken, people will probably get upset, but I have to eliminate that sound NOW. Afterwards its always like wow, I really...

Links an article from Ars Technica entitled "our dumb healthcare system" "I don't know why you're making this political" neither side is pro rape but thats clearly a left wing pro socialized medicine piece. Fair point on the deductible if they didnt include that into the average out of pocket...

While nobody's defending the cost being > 0, what a dishonest headline. It doesnt take long in the article before they admit that actually for insured patients the cost was about 7 times lower. And only about 10-15% of patients were uninsured. But somehow the "average" is 3500. Classic...

After some consideration, the more I thought about your answers the less satisfying they are. I already addressed the point that individual investors don't make a measurable difference in share price. Already acknowledged. But exactly the same argument applies to boycotting, voting, or social...

"Would you like to round that up to donate to charity X?" no, fucking definitely not. Fuck push charities. I don't care what the cause is. If you're gonna try to trick me into donating via ""rounding up"" then in principle the answer is no. It could be "would you like to donate 2 cents to save...

I appreciate this writeup. The points about who really owns most of the shares and would therefore benefit from rising share prices helped clarify something I was missing. Not to dispute any of the points you made - but I note that you close by saying you won't invest in cigarette companies...

Sure, I get that, I guess my question was poorly phrased. When your investment actions contribute to the stock price rising, you are indirectly putting money in the company's pockets since their share prices rise too. When your investments contribute to the stock price falling, isnt that a...

That reminds me of something that rustles my jimmies at least once a week. You go into the UPS/Post Office with your packages ready to ship like a goddam normal human being. Theres a line, which is fine because how long can it take for those few people to drop off their packages? then you...

So honest question here cause I don't understand how options work fully. But isnt it possible to make money off these companies without putting money in their pockets, by shorting or puts? This isnt a criticism, its a question. I will add that its not all or nothing; there are degrees of evil...

I appreciate someone bringing this up , it seems like this thread constantly suggests investing in the same companies that we bash in other threads for destroying Western Civilization.

I fear you've completely misunderstood the bear thesis all along

of course its fake, there is zero chance we get an all-white FF Zero Chance

but if they hike a lot in Sep they can ease up in the future so this is actually good news, theres never been a better time to buy! /permabull

That will be goddamn ridiculous. Netflix can't even handle 21st century mainstream Christianity. CS Lewis hardcore no punches pulled Christianity? Not a chance. that shits gonna be as bad as WOT

Under 6 hours til someone explains why this is actually a bullish sign cause now the fed will pivot or something

I remember a time when actresses cast in fantasy movies were more attractive than the average gorilla, rather than less This is a strange timeline

I never got around to reporting back on our meat birds so here it is. TLDR, this little fucker was the key. My son who helped me throughout the process said it looked like cutting a cake, because you could see the layers of feathers, meat, bone, etc in one clean cut. bonus points when you get...

race switching is woke, it just isnt everywhere in this show. Actually its kind of funny how token they are about it. We've got a black elf and a black dwarf and a black hobbit. One of each. A couple other hobbits may have been some other brown race, it was hard to tell since they're all so...

I'm surprised how good this is. the black dwarf chick is every bit as terrible as expected, just ludicrous, she's in full on sassy black girl mode every second she's on screen. nails on a chalkboard levels of cringe. But she's one character. its not like all the dwarves are twerking.

All you fuckers with buy orders at 390 are really getting in the way of what should be a nice orderly drop. Please stand aside

Best day in memory, probably best single day gains since I started trading Now we just need about 2 more like that and I'll be happy

I'm sure by the end of the day they'll have talked themselves into this all being bullish again. See, high inflation now means lower inflation in the future! Large hikes in Sep means smaller hikes in the future! Economic shitshow now means the future can only be brighter, buy buy buy

This is the first MCU project my son has no interest in. He loves this shit so much he even watched Ms Marvel and didnt hate it, said it was kind of interesting because of the different culture. But this thing, he just shakes his head and he's like "I dunno, I've read things..." So damn proud

The widespread existence of bland food - bland food as the default - this rustles my jimmies. This isnt just a matter of preference; "oops I wish I'd ordered the spicy version". No, what I'm saying is why the fuck is bland tasteless food the default, and if you want some flavor on it, you need...

neat, can you point me to all the diversity in Black Panther and The Woman King? I mean, big tentpole shows and movies wont be made without diverse casts anymore

Yeah, now they just need to make it a check box: "Never show me the fucking intro or credits on any shows or movies"

Can you really pin that on tiktok generation? Fuck any and all intros and credits, I still get a little pissed when MCU movies try to make me sit through credits

I see the markets in full Vizzini mode today, bad news is good news cause they're so clever

"To place an order, please contact us to request a quote" No, you inbred assfuck, how about you put something on the motherfucking internet and I just oh I dunno PLACE A GODDAM ORDER ON THE WEBSITE LIKE A REGULAR GODDAM HUMAN BEING

Someday my portfolio will stop moving by 2-5% per day (up or down), and I'm gonna get really bored At least I assume that'll happen someday based on what I hear
