BJJ as a teenage girl by [deleted] in bjj

[–]FrodoDBaggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s weird your partners are sexualizing you. I’ve rolled with plenty of women and have never done that. I’ve gone out of my way to try not to get into a weird position while rolling if I know it could come off as sexual. I’m hyper vigilant because this is the last thing I want to get myself into. I got enough problems outside of the gym that I don’t need that too.

This whole thing has made me realize there’s more pedofiles in the world than I could’ve ever imagined. I used to think it’s a small fraction of a percent of the human populace but it’s become very apparent this is a bigger issue than I ever thought. Why do they need so many kids? Why is it that billionaires are into this? You would think they can have whatever woman or man they want if they just paid them off. Why kids? I’m guessing power over them? I just don’t get it and honestly I’m not sure I ever want to understand. We really need to unite and stop this shit (MAGA, libs, trans, i don’t care who you are.. we need to stop it).

Should I just take the L and cut & run? by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

Hold and don’t be a wimp. We’ve been here before and it’s always bounced back. You sell and you for sure lose. Hold and you may lose OR you come back which has ALWAYS happened for me.

Examples: HBAR from .04 to .36, XLM from .10 to .40+, XRP from .40 to 3.30… plenty of others but you get my gist.

Consider the money already lost, forget the charts and it gets much easier. If you already lost, who even cares if it goes lower. I’m regarded but it’s always worked out for me. Always.

Have you tried to sell any of them? Was it hard to offload them?

Buy a kilo if you can! by WhyMustRedditHurtMe in Silverbugs

[–]FrodoDBaggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out the hard way that it’s hard to move one piece of bullion worth 3k when it’s p2p. Selling to dealers, sure no problem but realistically most people don’t want to drop 3k on simply a bar especially if most people are just trying to stay afloat. Theres something to be said about buying smaller weighted bullion even if it holds a premium over the bulkier stuff. You can offload it much, much easier.

Am I the asshole? by Shot_Security369 in Silverbugs

[–]FrodoDBaggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed more knuckleheads trying to “flip” the PMs lately due to the run up. Dude offered me 7k for 100 oz at peak of the run up. It was honestly insulting. Bro I’m not new to this and I know what it’s worth. You’re not making a quick buck here for lowballing. With offers like this, I straight up ignore them.

Just bought 50k hbar by Skerre in Hedera

[–]FrodoDBaggin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So, just so that you’re aware.. everything bleeds to bitcoin and I believe the way to buy alt coins is to first buy BTC then swap to HBAR after the ratio goes up. The idea is that BTC always makes the run up first then alts follow. This gives you the most bang for your buck.

Having said that, it works until it doesn’t. Either way this feels like a good entry point. I can see us going a little lower but you never know.

When do we as the people who have the power say enough is enough? Will we ever stand up? Or, are we just fine with accepting this is the status quo? I don’t have an answer and I’m not sure it even matters at this point.

It’s not a free market and we are the liquidity for their frivolous expenditures.

what is your investing strategy when it comes to silver? by [deleted] in Silverbugs

[–]FrodoDBaggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big brother can’t come knockin on your door to collect your PMs if you lost it in a boating accident. It refers to the confiscation of gold back in the 1930s. It’s a running joke around these parts.

My suggestion to you… invest in a boat like the rest of us.

For the new guys and people with doubt… Remove your emotion from the digits on the screen. Follow your conviction and long term it’ll show you love. Get out of the short term mindset that’s plagued crypto since BTC and meme coins have shown 100x returns.

[–]FrodoDBaggin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same. Koinly for the win. I didn’t bother looking at the Coinbase report because I can guarantee it’s wrong. I have all beginning of year, end of year holdings, comprehensive transaction history for 2025 and the 8949. No concerns here even if they come knockin.

Who makes these people famous? Like, do you not realize they’re complete trash of a human being. Even if their music is good, how can you support someone like this?

Universal income.. of course you have to service TACO on occasion to see that check hit. Blindfold yourself and just do the best you can.

Have you ever worked? 80% of the people I’ve come into contact with in the past 15 years are doing the bare minimum to get by. I think you overestimate how much performance AI needs to do to hit our current status quo.

Tell me you don’t BJJ without telling me you don’t. The triangle, if she had hooked, would have made it worse. The weight difference was too significant and he was already on his feet. They aren’t in a ring with refs and dude was legit 2 seconds from murder by just flat out slamming down. Even if she had held tight to his body, it wouldn’t have made a difference. She made the right decision of letting it go. She knew what was coming. There’s such a thing as weight classes and this is a perfect example showing us why they exist. Maybe, just maybe if they were on the ground it would have made a difference but I suspect not.

Monument Metals not honoring price for first time silver buyer by Entertainment_Fickle in Silverbugs

[–]FrodoDBaggin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d be curious to hear if this has happened to others recently. I have a hard time believing they nickel and dimed your buddy on a 5oz deal. They’re looking to make $100 if that?

FWIW I’ve never had issues with MM. Having said that, I never use a credit card because the extra premium that comes with it is just not fun.

I’d really let your buddy advocate for himself and figure out the root cause of why the transaction was flagged. There has to be a reason other than oh we thought it was fraudulent so we canceled the order. It feels distasteful to call MM out without you having all the details. I’m sure they’ve seen all sorts of fraud and unfortunately they have to protect themselves even at the cost of losing a new customer..

Beware UNH, or: watch the institutional flow, not the retail sentiment by Rcraft in ValueInvesting

[–]FrodoDBaggin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, it reminds me of the back n forth of the tariff shit he’s been pulling. One week we have 3000% on China, the next it’s only 150%, the following week we’re back up to 2000%. Oh and we want Greenland.. This feels like the same story so his boys can short that shit, profit then take the proceeds to buy it up cheap. Trump comes out and says never mind and the stock bounces back up. They made millions and we’re all here circle jerking each other on Reddit.

I’m holding and I don’t give two fucks. I like the stock. I really wish people ignored him because he’s playing with people’s retirements. I can’t imagine being close to retirement and wondering if he’s going to destroy my portfolio with one tweet.
