@Mediaite These people are delusional. They don't dispute that the show is losing money, but at the same time, they say they don't think that's the reason they cancelled it. No one watches the show, dip shit! The new owners cut the dead wood, period. Their egos just can't see it.

@historyinmemes And now almost 100 years later thanks to capitalism, the average worker like her has several flat screens, cars, college for kids, iPhones, internet, door dash, and cures for heart disease, Hep C, Cystic Fibrosis, and many types of cancer. I guess it worked out after all.

A woman takes part in a protest against wealth inequality in North Carolina during the 1930s.

@kathrynw5 @TicTocTick When I got the email that my Marco’s Pizza account got hacked, I was in a panic! Oh My God! What if they order me a pizza!!!! It’s a scary world folks. Be safe out there.

We, as a society, have taken two-factor authentication too far. Logging into my bank account and into my Chipotle account shouldn't be the same process.

Stopped out of $PINS, but $EVER is working well. Sold 1/2 of $XRX. Plenty of cushion to hold through earnings with everything, so, I'm ready to roll. $NVO $IONQ $AAOI $BE $XRX $FORM $PL $LITE

@Houseofyogi @DarrigoMelanie Wait.,, you mean he doesn’t have a bed covered in piles of gold coins that he rolls in? Shoot, I thought billionaires had lots of cash on hand, but it turns out they don’t. It’s all unrealized. People who don’t understand this will say stupid stuff I guess.

@DarrigoMelanie I know working and creating value is a novel concept for you but he’s not hoarding when he’s building his way to it and it’s all unrealized asset value. I know they don’t teach things in Commie school so feel free to ask GPT I’m sure they can help you out.

This level of wealth hoarding is a mental illness.

@JamesSurowiecki Idiotic thing to say.

If JetBlue's acquisition of Spirit had been approved, there's a good chance JetBlue would now be headed into bankruptcy, too.

@ParadisLabs You’re still under the impression that people use TA to PREDICT what’s going to happen next. That’s not it. Doesn’t work. Successful traders use TA to manage risk and find higher probabilities. Start using it right and maybe you’ll understand it. It’s NOT a predictor.

Technical analysis is literally just a load of fairy dust sprinkled on top of delusion: - Technical indicators analyse historic price action. - But stock prices reflect forward information/fundamentals... A simple analogy is that: TA shows you yesterday's weather report. But what anyone should care about is whether it's sunny/raining tomorrow. The market's pricing in expected earnings six months from now, product launches, interest rate cuts etc. It's not reacting to some random squiggly lines you drew on your TradingView chart. Literally the only "technical indicator" I'll look at from time-to-time is trading volume to gauge sentiment.

@jonnajarian People who have never run a business should never have a say in what businesses can do. Should be a requirement for office.

Mayor Pete said he was protecting competition when he blocked the merger of Jet Blue & Spirit. Now 17,000 lives are disrupted as 2,000 pilots & 5,500 flight attendants + thousands of contractors, vendors, & support staff get pink slips.

@realEstateTrent I know everyone accepts this as the way it’s going to be, but I think this design will fail miserably. Basically, we’re ordering food from a giant vending machines.

After many years in Manhattan, this McDonald’s remodeled. Registers out. Self-ordering terminals in. There’s also now an outdoor pickup window. What’s your biggest takeaway?

@WallStreetApes I was in one this morning and the place is very uninviting, only a few tables, very hard, ugly chairs, very minimalist decor, one carafe of cream and a line of people jockeying to get it. He keeps bragging about the "condiment bar" being back. No, not really. It's too small.

Starbucks CEO defends a cup of coffee costing $9 He says the customers needs to just not think about it as a $9 cup of coffee, you’re paying for the “experience” of getting a Starbucks coffee “In some cases a $9 experience does feel like you're splurging, and then what that means is we have to make it worthwhile.” He says Starbucks customers “want to have a special experience and regardless of what your income level is, in some cases, a $9 experience does feel like you're splurging — well, this is a really affordable premium experience” How out of touch could a person possibly be…

Too many good names to choose from. Current holdings: NVO AAOI IONQ BE XRX FORM 1/2 PL 1/2 LITE 1/2

@LibertyCappy Umm... The very first Euro settlements in America were "Collectives" with everyone contributing to the storehouse and taking what they needed. Since everyone came to find gold, no one farmed. THEY ALL DIED. Not until they got land and had to feed themselves did a settlement work.

Checkmate! 🤣

@Peoplewish @brewmarkets @TimKotzman Haha It’s a little harder to trade in and out of, or hold billions in a few stocks, and be able to get out quickly haha. Try keeping partners happy when one of your stocks gets cut in half.

@brewmarkets @TimKotzman Then why does he have 64 holdings across 10+ industry themes? Is it because he’s already rich and wants to stay rich? Because if he wanted to get richer, he should concentrate that into 2 or 3 asymmetric home runs no? 🤔

Great trade on $TZOO yesterday. Added $NVO today. Excellent week overall! $EDIT $PL $FORM $NVO $LITE

@RealSimpleAriel Nice work!

Covered the last of $CAR today. What an incredibly opportunity sprinkled into what has been an amazing month on the long side!

I closed out the last 1/4 of $TLYS a couple days ago. about 85% invested atm. Still holding a few: $EDIT $PL $FORM $LITE Many more excellent choices of flags and cup with handle setups out there. Mostly waiting for earnings catalysts.

@BullTheoryio Nonsense.

THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL. A rental car company with $25 billion in debt just exploded 600% in a month because two investors own over 100% of the stock. Avis Budget Group $CAR hit a record high of $608.80 on Monday, surging 23% in a single day. Two hedge funds, SRS Investment and Pentwater Capital, control 71% of the shares but when including their cash-settled equity swaps, their combined holding exceeds the entire outstanding supply. This is a company that reported a $995 million net loss last year and has been struggling under a massive debt load for months. One technical ownership glitch changed everything. The supply mismatch is so extreme that short sellers are trapped in a mathematical impossibility. With zero shares left to borrow and the float effectively non existent, the market just gave a debt heavy rental company a 6x gain simply because the math broke.

@GavinNewsom @NRA Start at home. Get rid of all the armed security you have and show the world it can be done. Who needs guns for protection anyway?

Eight children murdered — ages 1 to 14. This is a moral failure. It’s preventable. How many more kids have to be killed before the @NRA stops paying off politicians?

@Emmonspired @PeachieBottoms It is a non-profit. Go look up the tax filings of your local office. You will see that the boss is not making millions because they have to report their pay publicly. Private companies don’t do that…

@PeachieBottoms People still (incorrectly) believe that Goodwill is nonprofit. It’s not. And people still give them donations for free to turn around and sell it like this

we really starting to lose the plot now Goodwill

@ronrule Pretty much all "licenses" are just a bullshit tax. Why do we have to register a car, and why do we have to pay every year? Why do you need a business license when it doesn't qualify you to do anything? What is the purpose? Why a dog license?

Why are cosmetology licenses a thing? It seems silly to need a permission slip from the government to cut hair.
