GameStop Stock is a Pump and Dump
An interesting case of distributed "uncoordinated" Pump and Dump. It's like Donald Trump's Capitol Riot, all you needed was the conditions for incitement.
You could say Reddit's WallStreetBets incited a Pump and Dump scheme. It isn't the traditional way of going about it where I hold the stock and promote it. Instead it is going via bullshit information saying you are attacking "Wall Street" and "bankrupting" Hedge Funds. Now it is wait until "Short Interest" report day and all other kinds of bullshit misco...

San Francisco has some crafty robbers
How'd they plan that is... insane. Quick glass break and then swipe! Must have done that over 50 times and to that specific car. How do you know how the glass will react? The layout of the car? How'd you know whats in the bag? They were targeted pre-mediated I think.
It's not like SF has overall gotten worse though. Its always easy for people to pick on it for crime even thoug...

M1 Macbook Pro
Ah, so I was skeptical about the M1 not being a heater, but holy fuck! A laptop that I can put on my lap and not worry about being burned! Fuck yes!
I'm really surprised by the low battery usage, the speed and lack of heat! You'd think 'nah nah, these tech geeks are hyping it up' HA! Jokes on me. It really is that good!
I have a 16" Macbook Pro with i9, 32gb and butterfly keyboard. Sadly, it has issues that are beyond me, so I will take it in to Apple and get it fixed or replaced. Imagine going back to a 8GB ...

PR folk are Useless when CRITICALLY Needed
Robinhood could have easily easily said there's too much demand and not enough supply for stocks like GME with no mention of capital troubles. Could have said our clearinghouse will no longer process buys and we are proactively stopping buy orders on other stocks experiencing high traffic. We are looking forward to bringing these stocks back up when we have clearance.
No, they do retard interviews and say retarded shit like "Volatile Market" "we are protecting you" "be an informed investor". Means nothing to...

Imagine if they were Black and Terrorizing a White Family
https://abcnews.go.com/US/lawsuit-filed-off-duty-officer-mob-allegedly-force/story?id=75496788
If it were the other way around they'd be called "thugs"
"A captain from the sheriff's office allegedly did not attempt to question the members of the mob while they were outside the Shepard home and told the family the next day, "it was complicated to apprehend or arrest anyone who had been there the previous night," the suit said."
Same reason why the terrorists at the US Capitol were let go. Always too complica...

1619 Project is Infinitely more Compelling than Any Racist tRump 1776 Bullshit Could Produce

Clicking on read more will bring you to a page that shows the stories: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/12/20/magazine/1619-intro.html
I found the first story very interesting with notable content such as blacks who were elected during reconstruction period before the federal government abandoned them to the second period of slavery through crap like Jim Crow and redlining. Poor southern whites benefited from the shit bl...
