As I understood it, not all stock is shortable. This one IS?

Hey, I miss WSB style action on Lemmy. There are no subs or instances for this, because we are deathcore communists who would never touch filthy wallets with our soil stained hands.

I wish we would.

Public education.

Oh god I thought that was a joke.

Edit: hoooooly shit.

This surpasses Simpsons levels of dark humor.

"The word of God- approved by and with written foreword in simple English by Mussolini Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow Nicolae Ceaușescu Damold G Trumph, only $59.99"
You know how I know God isn't real? Because that.

Jesus be like... "dude".

Ah, the famous "trickle down" principle of economics.

Does Facebook, really? Or Xitter?

Alas, not all stocks are shortable.

And if you're gullible it's easy to reframe them as part of the "nothing is happening in the world and geopolitics are not a thing" conspiracy theory.

I doubt they’re wasting precious foreign currency on this.

Their EXISTENCE hinges on winning the US election right now.

It's literally ALL they are "wasting precious currency" on.

It's crazy how far any community goes to get "its" fix.

Neurologically speaking, our brains' reward-punishment module is too damn directly exploitable.

Very weird take.

The Saudis, the Israelis, and the Chinesis all have old "trade" agreements with the US.

One other country has joined the club, only they snuck in the back door to burn the whole thing down.

None of the others' intent is to overthrow US democracy, because they depend on it for not living like Tuskan Raiders in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

I am shocked hearing people say that out loud even. Isn't that extremely, painfully, provably obvious to everyone? No. It is not. It is a matter of "both sides" debate, apparently.

"Hi, I sell snake oil. It cures cancer!"
"Oooh, I LOVE not having cancer! I'll buy 1. No, wait, 1000!"

I have some bad news for your peace of mind...

This is so damn true it hurts.

Bearish on FEELS.

The sheer level of cynicism is unhinged.

Philosophy Gone Wild

I remember something about a war in Europe, but then out of the blue came a super weak Hamas attack on Israel, and now I don't know who's warring whom anymore. Taylor Swift though, she's got above average looks and talent, so something is good in my world at least.

It's Texas Hold'em with extra steps.

They are degenerate gamblers.

Gambling, in my personal opinion, is one of the absolutely most tragic and devastating dependencies there are, and I would include meth abuse among them. At least meth heads tend to live past 40 or so. You get gambling debts and you will be fitted with lead boots in the harbor. I lost my best friend to it, and I've seen others on the same path. Drugs are nothing compared to what gambling does to the brain. It's basically the same, only imagine a drug that you must take a new dose of every 0.82 seconds. Forever.
