"F-ing Market, Stock Prices keep Eluding Me"
Sometimes I feel like the Stock Market is fucking rigged, to borrow a page out of tRump's book.
It is an emotional rollercoaster with stocks at least when day trading. I look for valleys in stocks to see if I want to buy in and sell quickly in the same day session.
I saw primarily G and F (just first letter of the stocks) being highly volatile, so I day traded those to the fucking moon. I then tried to get into other fucking stocks and lost my gains then I'd get back into G and F and gain my gains back, but t...

Why does "The One" matter? Oh yeah, humans and animals have a duty to procreate. The spiel of the simple "meet someone, fall in love, get married, buy a house and have kids" creates that hole from childhood. "The One" would fill that hole. This implies L.T.R.
Spent time over the years thinking about that hole and trying patch it up with duct tape as I realize I don't need to do any of those things to be happy. "The One" isn't that one you'd find and marry (or common law) the first time unless you are ...

Propaganda around Section 230 of the Communication Decency Act
This guy sums up what I agree with: https://popehat.substack.com/p/section-230-is-the-subject-of-the
There's no reason why Section 230 should be invoked every time some politician feels offended.
Fuck conservatives and their horseshit propaganda. Fuck Trump for that matter. Fuck the FCC if they turn it upside down.
Section 230 this, conservatards. I am really annoyed by these politics and I lean towards apolitical.

Vocal Conservatives are Retards
If someone had to post illegally obtained materials concerning their Supreme Court nominee, they'd be up in arms about how Twitter and Facebook are allowing distribution of illegal materials therefore SECTION 230. I would have censored it all the same and shadow banned all conservatard accounts for contributing in the spread of bull shit.
NY Post wants to distribute feces? Let them do it on their own site (freedom of the feces throwing). Fuck you NYPost for spreading misinformation and this faux outrage. Dum...

I Wondered Why the Arch in Bridges
Apparently arch bridges are durable, cheap and simple structurally and a deliberate choice of many different types of load bearing structures. I never thought much about an arch in a bridge until today. Never would think that it mattered much and was more design/fashion rather than trade off against the forces of the earth.
Curiosity only arose because I wondered why x bridge has an arch which looks...

2 Really Annoying GMail UI Bugs
GMail used to be good with basic shit, but the recent bugs have been unbelievable.
I press delete on an email and it still shows up on the list of emails. Have to refresh the page 🙄.
I read an email and then want to close the window and it asks to confirm to close the window and lose changes? 🤪
Gmail was better as an experiment apparently.

Ah, so That's Why Facebook Changed their Policies for Free Speech
https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/08/gretchen-whitmer-kidnapping-plot-facebook-groups-militias-fbi/
Ha, so it takes threatening and plotting against government officials to get Facebook to change its policies rather than advertisers taking away their money along with social protests. Shitty company leadership.
Glad I don't have FB nor will I ever integrate it.

Need to Pick up Some Old/New Hobbies
I will look into seeing if I can slowly get back to some outdoor hobbies as well as pick up some old indoor hobbies even though COVID is still around. I guess it is not as bad here though, but it doesn't mean that I want to get into activities that would screw me over putting me into contact with possibly asymptomatic people.
This year: Keyboard (piano music). I'm gonna buy a keyboard in the next few months. This will mark what... my second time buying one. First one was in university.
Next year: Archery, Kay...

People Getting Mad at the Cheater's Partner doesn't make sense.
I get these Digg emails and one with this link stood out: https://tribunecontentagency.com/article/ask-amy-personal-trainer-needs-some-personal-training
- Personal trainer fucks married woman and husband finds out. Trainer fights with husband (knocks him out) and gets fired (honest reason for firing was unprofessional behavior). How'd the husband find out? Hmmm. He ain't getting his job back, he made poor judgement and did it with one married woman so what stops the next encounter and subsequent trouble?
Rela...
