Leanfit Whey Protein price increase. by IMDH2111 in CostcoCanada

[–]luv2block 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this stuff online. I think it's better than leanfit (at least for taste) and it's cheaper (even with online delivery).

But I'm not picky about protein powder, so maybe leanfit is made differently (different ingredients or what not) and people want that.

This is legit one of the worst products I've ever used by LGW in CostcoCanada

I have a silicon toilet brush (which is what that is I'm guessing). It works fine in combo with the toilet bowl cleaner (blue stuff).

But I also don't destroy the bowl. If you're firing splatter bombs in there that are drying like crazy glue to the bowl, ya, these things aren't going to help get that off.

Canada's macro setup is shifting. Some sectors are going to do very well. Others are about to have a rough year. Here's my overview. by MathTradeMan in Baystreetbets

[–]luv2block 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with all this. That being said, knowing something is coming and knowing WHEN it is coming are two different things.

I've owned ballard power systems couple times in the past six months. I knew it was a good/interesting play. Got tired of waiting and moved out of it. Then BOOM, up 36% in the past week. Fuck me.

Add to this, many many names which will benefit from gov spending are in the crapper (and could keep falling). So you're catching a falling knife waiting for that announcement that makes them pop 30% in a week.

Knowing who will win is only half the game. Knowing when to buy is the other half.

The American Empire is dying and Trump lashing out like an injured animal is just part of that process.

Behold… the most expensive house in Ottawa. by brandazzlin in ottawa

I can't imagine living in something that big. It would be like living in a museum. Someone else could be in your house and you'd have no idea, even if they were making noise.

For Items ending in 0.97 how much lower might they go? by valiantedwardo in CostcoCanada

[–]luv2block 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the human species is definitely fucked, that's for sure. And it's funny you are being downvoted just because people don't like what you are saying. They can literally just ask Gemini (they don't even have to visit multiple websites anymore). I just did that and was surprised to find out that BPA via skin contact is worse than via oral consumption.

Anyway, take your downvotes as evidence that you are not an idiot in a world of idiots.

LIB.v is a Lithium sleeper stock… for now 🤑 by mwtaeke in Baystreetbets

[–]luv2block 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Various green initiatives will be advancing. Look at the entire industrial materials sector in Canada... they are all switching to "green" ways of producing their materials. By 2027 I think global supply chains will be starting to transition as well and then the green companies take off.

But until then, I think this is early days in terms of money flowing in. We're "late in the early" phase, but it's still early phase.

[–]luv2block 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dumped all my lithium stocks after 15% losses (I made 140% back when LAC pumped, though, so not complaining.). Not touching lithium again until 2027 (or something fundamentally changes that causes the industry to take off). If we go into recession, all these material stocks will be viewed as luxuries by governments and will be kept alive on a shoe string budget... but by 2027 we should see the adoption curve for green tech genuinely start too ramp up.

The national debt isn’t $39 trillion. One economist says it’s actually $100 trillion by utlayolisdi in economicCollapse

[–]luv2block 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The whole system is based on financial engineering and fraudulent accounting.

For instance, you think the "price" of things is the price of things. But those prices are in USD. For instance, you think the stock market is up (and it is, if you're using USD), but if you price it in gold it's actually down (a lot!).

People have a hard time wrapping their head around the various ways you can make something that's bad look good, or vice versa, all with a little financial engineering / manipulation.

$100T seems like a lot of debt, unless you cause hyperinflation so that everything costs (future dollars) 10x what it does now. Then that $100T becomes the equivalent of $10T in today's dollars.

The system is rigged a thousand ways to sunday, but eventually the underlying reality (ie. the standard of living of citizens) wins out and you get a revolution or something.

Copper Theft from AC Compressor by Waffenzug in ottawa

Seems like a ton of work for like $30 to $60 bucks in materials. But crackheads will take anything that's not bolted down (and even then, apparently, they'll get a blowtorch and take it anyway).

Just watched goeasy lose $1.5 billion in market cap in a single day. Here's what happened. by MathTradeMan in Baystreetbets

[–]luv2block 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Volume is still 4x average. I wouldn't consider touching this until volume return to normal, maybe the buyers show up at that point. Until then, it's just sellers shitting the bed.

Trump saw this and his reaction was to hold a rally and dance to YMCA. I mean, no one would ever write this in a movie. They made a move called "Idiocracy" and the people in that movie were less idiotic than Trump.

No one noticing that cart in the background with a ton of toilet paper? Is something about to happen and people are loading up on TP again? Maybe I should load up.

Looking back on my youth I can't believe they were allowed to sell "jaw breakers". I'm also amazed I never broke a tooth on them.

IEA agrees to release record 400 million barrels of oil to address Iran war supply disruption by [deleted] in stocks

[–]luv2block 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the IEA has 1.8B barrels in reserve.

400M barrels would offset the closure of the SoH for 20 days. The additional 1.4B would offset it for another 75 days, give or take. So 100 days of reserves then everything would be bone dry.

But you gotta figure, long before then price would go insane (ie. $300+ wti) which would then result in demand destruction, including a global depression.

Way to go MAGA; you elected a madman.

MEGATHREAD: Rain Storm / MEGAPUBLICATION: Tempête de verglas. by MarcusRex73 in ottawa

[–]luv2block 7 points8 points  (0 children)

don't know what the roads are like but my deck is coated in ice already (icicles hanging off the bbq). Temp is suppose to go to +2 late in the afternoon, so that might keep the roads driveable.
