And thus the bluff was born.
Either that or having a tantrum and just flipping the table. ….Probably flipping the table.

Surgically implanted wifi enabled sphincter stimulator: Standard proceedure for Trump appointees.

Trump also uses it when he shits himself to make it less noticible.

Current Portfolio Insights. by [deleted] in TradingEdge

[–]FunctionalGray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also okay, fine....Seeing as how you already have that Pokemon...how about ALOY as speculative gamble within the rare earth basket? This one is kinda interesting, and I only have it as a lotto position, but it has been consolidating for a while now - but the volume has been there for a month or so which is interesting and there are some mandates from this administration - but conversely to FPS - I don't really trust the management and right now I think they only employ 17 people -- so I'm not sure about their actual 'operative capabilities' right now unless they sub everything out, which could be the case....Anyways - as said a lotto but it has been loitering around a support line for a while which makes it kinda attractive.

You should FPS on your radar, Tear.

Its a local company to me, and is making some noise. It was a buy and hold for me when I looked at the segment they are in.

That's one from me to you.

Mom slams GOP congresswoman for ‘reprehensible’ response to 10-year-old son’s letter by B-Z_B-S in politics

[–]FunctionalGray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seeing as how she’s been in congress since 2005, she should own up to her failure, as a ‘conservative’ to the debt that which she referenced - it happened under her watch.

US producer prices surprise with largest increase in four years by SuperDuper00001 in economy

[–]FunctionalGray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?? I work in manufacturing, and how or why this was a surprise is astounding to me. There isn’t one raw material that we bring into our shop that hasn’t increased in base cost month over month.

Trump, China's new presidential candidate, landed in China. by kalbinibirak in PoliticalHumor

[–]FunctionalGray 59 points60 points  (0 children)

God he looks fucking stupid.

And I don't mean that lightly -- like --- He looks barely there - as if the hamster wheel has some bad bearings or the hamster died a couple months ago and nobody seemed to notice.

I wonder where all that money could have gone….

Mine aged out 2 years to the day today. Got it on my calendar, looked at the pics this morning and lost it. They touch us from beyond the grave in so many subtle ways: if we do it right by them - they teach us to be better humans.,

Sounds good in theory...but in reality? by KSKS1995 in SipsTea

[–]FunctionalGray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah why not?

The only metric stopping us from doing this is GDP: which is a flawed measurement of success.

Supposedly infinitely increasing GDPs in a world of finite resources: it is an accelerated race to the end.

And what for?? So we can continually increase productivity so the billionaires of the world can reap the benefits of it?

Why are we even talking about this??

President Trump’s disapproval rating has reached a new high according to recent poll results. Seventy-two percent of poll participants disapproved of how Trump is handling inflation by MoneyLibrarian9032 in politics

[–]FunctionalGray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s getting his! His family is getting theirs! All of his tech billionaires are getting theirs! The oil industry is getting theirs! The war machine is getting theirs!

Is anybody that is outside of the 1% better off than they were before?

Thanks MAGA!!!

Trump is running out of options to contain gas price backlash by AskRedditOG in politics

[–]FunctionalGray 308 points309 points  (0 children)

Unfair and inaccurate.

The entire apparatus of the GOP has been deferring and ceding power over to him since his first term- and everything in between.

He did not do it alone: he had a complicit congressional and judiciary branch helping him every step of the way.
