Who’s shorting RDDT?

The worse part of xitter is how they broke access to everything if you aren’t a registered user. They even break the chronological order of posts for anonymous users. I don’t feel encouraged to make a xitter account when I can’t even see things without one, it just makes me feel like I’m signing up to be another piece of livestock.

When I was growing up I was at my grandmother’s house out in the woods, she had land on a hill so the sky was pretty visible and usually very clear at night. The stars were easy to spot. One particular night I was looking down her driveway when I saw the entire sky light up green. It turns out meteorites burning up in the atmosphere can turn the whole sky green suddenly, but I didn’t know that at the time and it freaked me out bad.

Yeah, this is just a terrible idea. The risk is far greater than any potential reward you might be getting.

It isn’t radio though because hardly anyone listens to the radio anymore. It’s probably because there is a practically small amount of radio listening that people have started grabbing onto anything that sounds basic and easily digestible. The less they’re challenged, the better they feel about it.

I got PS Plus Premium in February for $120/year, months later they increased the price significantly. I don’t intend to renew my subscription, but now I simply don’t intend to purchase Sony games or digital media anymore. They’ve done this before, can’t remember when. They’re enforcing the argument for piracy by stealing media from their customers.

Not sure what’s worse, NFTs or the absolute lack of concern most who invest in them have for things like the wellbeing of others

The drama, Microsoft dealing with their own antitrust claims in other realms and here they are spilling the tea on Google. Grab the popcorn, the big tech corporations are going at it.

The same seasoned Democrats that stacked the primaries in her favor? The 2016 election was the first time I had a real voice in an election and it felt like it was just vacuumed away. The candidate who seemed the most appropriate and the most qualified got swept under the rug in favor of the shit-throwers. She wasn’t perfect, she was a better terrible than Trump.

In 2020 the Democrats scrambled for a viable candidate and somehow Joe Biden was the best they could give us, and it was an absolute gamble. His victory in the 2020 election was dangerously overstated and the danger of a repeat of 2016 in 2024 was ignored.

I think a lot of people get in these unhealthy mind tracks when they’re driving all the time. Passing subconsciously seems like it will speed up the time you’re stuck in traffic or dealing with uncertainty.

In reality, just allowing things to flow the way they will and going with it is a much less stressful existence.

It’s all over the cities remotely close to Cincinnati too… and it’s actually pretty good. Not big on the spaghetti part, but the chili is pretty good.
