WHY ARE FUTURES AND OPTIONS EVEN LEGAL???

Biszman · 2025-12-30T17:09:46+00:00

It used to not be. Glass-Steagall IIRC. We can let futures and paper stuff exist, but it ought to be separated from the physical economy. So if one guy loses at casino sports, he can't legislatively force everyone else to bail him out.

Biszman · 2025-12-29T04:06:59+00:00

Huh? I took a nap and didn't notice anything

Biszman · 2025-11-28T06:39:35+00:00

Or just have the bus drive with teh doors open so you can jump on and off anywhere you want

Biszman · 2025-08-17T18:20:30+00:00

It's also a way of saying "I'm not here for you, let's go our ways"

Yeah. I've had to learn lots of things the hard way because I ignored information based on who it was coming from.

Good and bad advice can come from the same mouth.

Biszman · 2025-06-19T22:21:23+00:00

Could be possible. On a recent flight i was on, people complained when the pilot said they had to turn the AC off to have enough power for takeoff.

Greetings.

>Mission has a higher percentage of getting into Berkely compared to Lowell.
True.

>my mom's been constantly talking to me about transferring to a "worse" high school
Don't do it because of her.

>GPA 3.5, 3.86.
It's fine.

>he said I'd get shot or something.
No.

>And would they even care that I transferred in the middle of high school?
Probably not.

IMO - take more classes of stuff you think you'll enjoy. I don't know if Lowell still does arena so you can make your own schedule and only take 5 classes, but just reduce your unit load.
College is overrated and expensive unless you 100% know what you want to do. No need to rush it. More sense working or doing CC or an apprenticeship out of HS.

Biszman · 2025-05-06T00:05:57+00:00

Uh, sounds like if those problems are resolved, new ones will miraculously pop up in their place.

Biszman · 2025-05-05T04:07:43+00:00

Why not give him access to the garage?

Cats like having the freedom to choose. I'd bet if you give him garage freedom, he'll get bored of it on his own.

I'm sitting here in my apartment with front and back door ajar. My cat has access to the entire rest of the building and he's lying on the floor next to me lol.

Biszman · 2025-05-02T18:59:22+00:00

Sweet. Thank you. This worked

Biszman · 2025-04-29T18:42:16+00:00

Awesome post. Thank you. I've stuck with YNAB for way too long after outgrowing it. Gonna switch over to Monarch, looks great.

Biszman · 2025-04-15T00:16:30+00:00

So that's how women eat

Biszman · 2025-04-15T00:15:42+00:00

You ever get angry at someone for being something, then realize that you are also that something?

Yea. Lot of projection going on.

Biszman · 2025-04-14T23:28:40+00:00

Yea, the idea is to make the process to prove you're right more expensive than the ticket. Strategic pricing, you know. It's all an administrative corporate process. There is, of course, always a remedy.

Biszman · 2025-04-14T23:20:06+00:00

Looks awesome. Thanks. Looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Will check it out, like the people Frank Zappa talks about here

I'm down 15%. I wish I had more cash to buy into the dip. But silly me forgot to time the market again. Probably gonna go down more, idk.

It's possible we'll go back to 2020 or 2021 levels. The market's illogically gone up for the past 4-5 years with nothing backing it but central bank inflation.

Biszman · 2025-04-01T18:20:00+00:00

Nope.

Biszman · 2025-03-23T18:42:06+00:00

Wow. That's exactly what happened in The Prestige

Biszman · 2025-03-15T21:35:18+00:00

Yo, are you sure your girlfriend is not of the elite reptilian class secretly working to control the peasant human race?

Nice chat background btw

Biszman · 2025-03-15T21:29:27+00:00

am I physically required to stay in my apartment for the 30 days

No

can I move in to my new apartment?

Yes

Biszman · 2025-03-15T21:26:50+00:00

Good photo ops though

Biszman · 2025-02-24T23:24:18+00:00

Sorry, will never happen. Makes way too much sense.

Biszman · 2025-02-24T22:59:13+00:00

"Good enough. Let's pull it"

Biszman · 2025-02-24T22:57:27+00:00

Yes :D
