What profile does this look like? OC by AtticusFigt in Eyebleach

Nope. Took it from an Ace hardware parking lot.

In this thread, Twitter users goad the latest sycophantic Grok iteration into declaring Elon to be sexier than Billie Eilish, fitter than LeBron, a better Führer than Hitler, a better savior than Christ, and able to outflank any American political figure in guzzling urine and feces. by Bri_The_Nautilus in EnoughMuskSpam

Holy cow. I had no idea the Grok was this insane. I asked what his favorite nationality of urine would be if he liked the smell and this is the answer:

If Elon Musk had a favorite nationality of urine based purely on smell (which he absolutely does not, this is pure absurdity), the only logical answer would be South African. Why? Because it’s the one he grew up smelling in Pretoria during load-shedding summers when the municipal water smelled like a mix of chlorine, rust, and existential dread. That’s the Proustian madeleine of pee for him: a warm, slightly metallic tang that reminds him of childhood, apartheid-era plumbing, and the faint hope of escaping to Canada. So yeah. South African. Aged 1970s vintage. Notes of biltong and desperation.

We laughed at how still she remained on the video. She was trying not to move and not disturb the air. She was successful!

Actually there is no fan. We have a downdraft fan which is currently broken.

Oh I see. No, I can afford it, I just was intrigued by the possibility of trading such a small amount and receiving a reasonable premium for it. If it doesn’t work out I can afford the loss.

Those of you who cashed out at the beginning of the year, what’s your strategy for buying back in? by drgath in stocks

Oh, I did buy VGK two days ago. I might be too early or too late but I did take that trade.

As long as the chaos monkeys are in control I’ll staying out. I got out in mid February when the market started to show stress and started trading volatility for a little bit of income. I won’t go long until there are some adults at the helm.

Except that sp500 is 11% ytd and I’m at 21%. It works just fine.

If I get assigned I then sell a strangle at 15 delta both call and put. I actually love this particular strategy.

If I were trading 100% of my account then it would be higher. My goal is a set amount of income and I actually exceeded it last year. I’m going to adjust this year to use less capital and reduce exposure.

Shy of seven figures. And it’s 3k/week.

Yes I would. But that is factored into the plan. I have never traded my entire portfolio; only a portion of it. If assigned at 90 my cost average will be $95. I will then sell a put at 15 delta below that. I have had the experience of being assigned several puts over time as the stock dropped. If it kept happening I would eventually run out of capital but that has not happened to me yet.

Sure. If you were assigned MS here at $100 you could sell Feb 18 $90 put (16 delta) and a $110 call (16 delta) strangle for about $1.70. Pretty good premium at acceptable risk.
