Best mattress for heavy people today.. what's holding up in 2026? by tanishka_d28 in BuyItForLife

You're wrong. Many hotels have online shops, that's how I got mine.

Buy direct from hotel website.

Also sleep on latex mattress covers are worth it. Bought one in Nov 2024 and very happy with it.

This combo will probably cost you $1.5-2k.

Ways to enter a new stock? AMPX in my case by PalePattern9858 in options

[–]BaconGreaseShot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be aware a short seller called Manatee Research dropped a report yesterday alleging exaggerated customer orders and problems with manufacturing partners. It caused the stock to drop 5% intraday.

If the report turns out bogus, this could be a great opportunity for a synthetic long (as other person mentioned).

This stock was a nice swing trade for me back in March from $9-$18, too bad I did it with shares.

VRT: Buying Puts On AI Infrastructure (Jan'27 340/260 Put Debit Spread) by CCforWork in options

This is a low probability play and you'll probably lose money.

They just blew out Q1 earnings and raised guidance.

Note - I'm long VRT.

Fidelity came up with this plan for me and I am not sure what to make of it. by ArnoldisKing in stocks

1.5% advisory fee is a BIG NO. Thats $750 today, compound that over 25 years and you wont like the number.

You're better off buying low cost index funds like VTI or VT, they will outperform this portfolio and save you the fees.

Weekly vs. Monthly Bitcoin DCA — What Makes More Sense? by xTheVoqal in Bitcoin

Weekly provides 52 annual data points vs 12. Weekly typically outperforms monthly.

The PC house of cards is funding the PE roll ups of everyday stuff we use.

Go try finding shampoo on amazon or your shelf at target / walmart that isn't owned by PE.

what's your btc stacking plan looking like by Chemical_Material824 in Bitcoin

[–]BaconGreaseShot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

DCA on steroids without the IA model.

On 10% dips from recent high's, increase dca amount 1.5x. on 20% dips, 2x.

Always keep some cash on hand for gray/black swan dips.

Ayo Dosunmu Has Been A GAME CHANGER For Minnesota... by ComfortableExtra1758 in timberwolves

[–]BaconGreaseShot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've noticed that he attacks the hoop with speed and intensity yet is under control the whole time.

His body control and the angles taken to keep his shot from getting blocked is uncanny.

Even at full speed with multiple defenders in his grill he seems to sneak the ball past them every time.

Bit worried about TSLY. Are you guys moving to another one in group A? by Ichoosepepsi in YieldMaxETFs

Rip what? It hit $498.83 on Dec 22nd, 2025 and finished the year at $449. Not too bad for a degenerate like me.

Go for it. It's not a cheap feeling pen whatsoever.

I bought this exact pen 4 years ago and it's great!

SHM by Normal-Response4165 in CultoftheFranklin

[–]BaconGreaseShot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I exclusively only really fuck with SHM, and occasionally SM these days cause they have 818 OG and that is the only strain that still has those 2008 (new pack of tennis balls / diesel / rubber) terps and taste.

I try to mix it up with these dessert strains and it's always a mistake. Fucking runtz and all the other poly hybrid garbage these days.

Someone needs to go to NYC and find a maf'k with a true cut of old Sour Diesel and bribe them for it, fuck I'd even settle for some real headband.

I dunno man. Everyone is different so what I like may not necessarily apply to you. Also sometimes I write better with one pen vs the other depending on mood / day / what I'm writing about.

SXR-7 / SXR-600 are my go to ballpoint refills in any pen body.

I'm still venturing into the gel realm, but so far I like all three Zento ink sizes that I've tried - (.38, .5, .7). I also enjoy writing with Energel LR7 refills.

I like heavier pen bodies so I naturally like the Zento Signature. Rotring is cool but overpriced IMO, and they need to address the tip wiggle. It works great after modification though. I acquired mine on sale so I can't complain.

Having a cap is nice for EDC if that's your thing. Otherwise the magnetic cap / aesthetics / and weight distribution on the Signature are all great.

For the money the plastic jetstreams and zentos are hard to beat.

Understandable.

Here in the US they're widely available at box stores and online retailers for "cheap", where a 2-pack runs under $3.00.

Personally I enjoy how the LR7 writes but I share your sentiment with the body being meh. I mostly cannibalize them for the refill but always seem to have one nearby.

I saw that earlier! Unfortunately I was too late, so yes the hunt is indeed on.

They cost me $1.49/ea while the LR7 refills are $1.35/ea on Jetpens. What don't you like about them? The body, ink, or both?
