  1. A trader thinks that the prices of eggs are going to increase, and so he contacts his broker and asks him to buy 1,000,000 egg futures at $1.70 Sure enough, a week later, the price of egg futures is $2.50, and the trader, happy to ride his winners, places an order for 3,000,000 more egg futures Next month, at $4.30 a piece, he pats himself on the back and restructures his liquid investments to buy another 10,000,000 egg futures At the end of the quarter, egg futures are trading at $7, and the trader finally calls up his broker and tells him to sell them all The broker replies: “To who? You’re the egg man!”

  5. This graphic is really good because (1) tobacco fucking rocks to own (2) you never hear people say shit like “man philip morris is ripping me off on cigarettes and ipads are extortionate”. but people do complain about grocery stores and consumer packaged goods and those guys only get single-digit margin. perception vs reality.

    We had the flu vaccine in previous seasons but skipped the last one. Never again. Shit is torture.
  7. Crazy idea: the people with economic interest in an entity gets to allocate *their* capital in a way that aligns with their interest. Its amazing that the type of people crying about fascism are the ones who want to dictate how other people spend their money.
  8. Im celebrating my equity cost basis in the low 20s, and derivative positions that is up 100%+ to date.

    if they do, then 122k is insane cost of service and hence the expensive family premium ($25k/yr for contribution from employee+employer) if they dont, the insurance companies go out of business.
  11. imo Intel calls for any major positive news event. Tesla calls for the supposed robotaxi deployment in Texas in June.

    He and everyone else are getting screwed because the premiums need to reflect the insurance payout be it $122k or $61k or $30k or whatever the true payment is.

    Slipped on a patch of black ice the other while turning a corner and fell on my side. It happened so goddamned fast i couldnt even process how i braced/reacted to the fall. I’d taken wilder spills in my 20s, doing endos without a helmet, smacking into trees on mountain bikes, etc, without nary a scratch. This damn fall put my arm out of commission for 2 weeks and this is how the bruising showed at the end of that period.

  17. Bluey is adorable. Hes watching the Snoopy show on Disney+ and thats a huge upgrade but when hes on Youtube Kids occasionally he’ll click into blippi 🥴
  18. My toddler occasionally watches this Blippi show and I swear to god this Blippi guy is just the creepiest motherfucker in kids programming. Dude radiates total pedophile energy.
  19. Bring me the bird
  20. Pfft. If thats the truth i would definitely fuck up a velociraptor.
  21. didnt know the sports score overlay on tv was called a Scorebug. Thought they were Chyrons, which is equally unintuitive, but atleast is a much cooler word.
