@BryGuyShy any of them. My subs and I are in $MP; we’re up 10%+ on it. I also like $USAR as well. $UUUU is good too.

@ericweinstein It’s just because you’re smart and successful. Nothing pisses small people off more than that. I should know as I’m not very smart or successful. So, being that the case, “Fuck You! You poser!” JK. Love ya, Eric.

Here is what happened:
*I claimed that there is a guitarist, Holdsworth, who is almost universally revered by top electric guitarists known to the public. And that the public is largely ignorant of such names.
*I claimed that I play some guitar.
*I claimed that I am “not good enough to need him”.
*I never claimed to be a Holdsworth fan, a musical expert or even a musician.
*I claimed to have listened to a fair amount of Holdsworth (hours and hours) and have no particular favorites because it all sounds close to a “modem” unless you are a top guitarist. I get the legato. I don’t get the beauty. That was my point actually I get Hendrix. I don’t get Fripp. Or Holdsworth. Or all Zappa. Etc.
*I was 100% correct that Joe and Jaimie are not ranking the top guitarists but the smaller subset of top popular guitarists.
*I said, correctly I believe, that David Lee Roth, kept the virtuouso Eddie Van Halen from becoming a more niche and obscure guitarist’s guitarist. Like Holdsworth.
I stand by everything I said. Where did I misrepresent anything?
Nowhere.
Now…Enter the group disinterpreters. The most tiresome group on the internet. “Ha ha. Eric said he was a guitar god who is above us all…blah blah blah.”
A bunch of people forming a consensus story that is demonstrably false.
My question: why do you do this? What’s in it for you? Is it lulz? Why just make the world worse for everyone else?
Thanks in advance.

You’re actively disinterpreting what occurred and what anyone can check. Is that important to you? If so why? I’m totally curious.

I like how in the same exact conversation, Weinstein praises the guitar virtuosity of Allan Holdsworth, and then Rogan asks him to name a song of Holdsworth's so they can listen, and it turns out he doesn't know even one. His 6th appearance, btw!

@MatthewModine This scene was perfection. Thanks for being a big part of the magic, Matthew.

For anyone who’s ever faced a personal challenge, it doesn’t get much better than the 'Six Minutes' speech in VISION QUEST. This scene wasn’t in the 1979 novel by Terry Davis. Elmo's monologue was written specifically for the film by screenwriter Darryl Ponicsan (THE LAST DETAIL, TAPS). Actor J. C. Quinn absolutely knocks it out of the park here.
If you’d like to support the @FMJDiary project, you can bid on an original poster below. I signed and inscribed it with Elmo’s iconic line: “It ain't the six minutes... it's what happens in that six minutes.”

@LynAldenContact It’s been a print down ass up world for us regular folks.

@MooninPapa @benjamincowen Apathy gives you 7/11 sushi tops and 7/11 bathroom bottoms. Naturally, when BTC is in the 7/11 bathroom nobody is gonna wanna touch it. BTC clearly hasn’t bottomed with all these greasy KOL fingers all over it.

@benjamincowen The biggest complaint I get is that we didn't get any top signals, so we shouldn't get any bottom signals this time around. Yeah right.

@Mr_Derivatives It’s called…check mate. But instead of blitz chess it molasses chess. No matter, as check and mate have occurred.

I lost on my short bet for alpha. It happens. I think we have entered into bubble regime. BUT always own beta at your risk target remains my highest principle. All SPY? 60/40 60/20/20 I don't care as long as it's at your risk target. Get off twitter and live your life. BUT if you want to learn how I tweak my beta and trade alpha in a bubble regime read the stack in comments

@EchoesofWarYT The Union is bigger than Virginia…General Washington knew this and so should you.

@fox12oregon It’s just a dirty word that millennials and Gen Z use routinely. It’s part of the music they listen to and youth culture sans race, now. I’m sure this word wasn’t used in the context anyone outraged thinks it was. We shouldn’t be attributing malice, hate or judgment here.

@LynAldenContact A persons race, gender and sexual orientation is boring. A persons talents, hobbies and interests aren’t boring. And that snarky, gay ass, chad, Bessent is, clearly, not boring.

در روز دوم از محاصره بنادر ایرانی هستیم. تمام درامد نفتی و تمام واردات ایران متوقف شده و با صحبتایی که از تمدید چند هفتهای آتشبس میشه به زودی اقتصاد ایران فلج خواهد شد. همچنین انبارهای نفت ایران فقط دو هفته ظرفیت ذخیره مازاد رو دارند. بعد از دو هفته استخراج نفت از چاهها باید متوقف بشه که صدمات طولانی مدتی به توان تولید خواهد زد. دلار از گذشته هم نایابتر خواهد شد، دولت توان پرداخت حقوق نخواهد داشت و بسیار صنایع به دلیل عدم دریافت مواد اولیه از کارخواهد افتاد و کارگران رو اخراج خواهند کرد. بمب رو میشد تحمل کنن اما تموم شدن پول رو نه.

@benjamincowen Ben, as a Christian, nobody can, but as an opponent of Islam and what’s going on in UK/Europe…I’ll support anyone whom fights the decline of Western Civilization. It’s painful but he’s not the first apostate who was right. God Save Us.

@Mr_Derivatives This one will very likely. It gapped the 50 and the 200. This gap is fucked.
