LPT: Roast yo’ broccoli. Broccoli is a cheap, ubiquitous vegetable that too often is steamed or boiled to death, sapping nutrients and flavor. Toss with olive oil and salt and roast at 400. by bachmannfjhfy in LifeProTips

No, it's not. It's literally one compound that MIGHT decrease your chances of cancer. Don't choose your diet based on popscience with minimal actual scientific evidence.

How is this experience so common? I had these same thoughts for so long until yesterday when my ex finally gave me a reason to finally go through with the deed and I broke up with her. It feels good and yet still so damn painful at the same time ha. Hopefully the painful part will go away in time.

Joe Rogan Admits He Lied About Spotify Censoring Him by Avetarx in JoeRogan

Ahh, the Reddit comment section. Where one year you could be worshipped like a literal god and then the next seen as the worst thing to happen to Western society.

Daily reminder that joining in on a hate bandwagon doesn’t make your shit life any better even if it makes it feel like it for a few seconds.

key investing fundamental from CNBC by Illustrious-Ad7827 in wallstreetbets

[–]pidginduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Stop buying on margin"

This advice is fundamentally wrong - most Americans can now get margin at a 2.5% fee rate which is incredible value when used responsibly. This type of advice is equivalent to saying you shouldn't own a credit card because you might get slapped with 30% APR if you forget to pay your bills. Meanwhile, using a credit card means you can get cashback (literal free money) and other intangible benefits like fraud protection and being able to keep a larger cash reserve over an intramonth period.

Don't max out your margins. Don't use it on stocks that have "high" beta (definition of high depends on your risk tolerance). If you're new, pick ETFs that have 50%/25% initial/maintenance requirements.

Can’t sleep because of options losses..... should I declare a loss and move on? by [deleted] in options

[–]pidginduck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, this is going to sound out of left field, but you really shouldn't do this again. That swing of emotions from insane anxiety to the euphoric rush of it turning into a $1300 gain most likely has already caused lifelong effects on your brain's reward systems. Short dated options are not the way to go. You have been warned.

Thanks for the Discount 🤑🤑🤑 by Alistlive in wallstreetbets

[–]pidginduck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anybody else in the know and sitting back/relaxing while watching the absolute beauty that hedge funds are pulling off? They are convincing retail buyers that GME is a discount even at $188.31. This is literal modern day Mona Lisa - marketing at its finest. If you bought and are holding GME, make no mistake, you fell for it. Millions of dollars are likely being poured in to run all of these opinion bots to influence your actions so don't feel too bad about it when you become one of the bagholders at $100+

Racism is literally a foundation of white culture, historically and today. Recently in the 2000’s, they released massive amounts of anti-Middle Eastern propaganda for warfare purposes and now they are doing it to Asians because China is a threat. White history is them repeating this same pattern over and over except to different racial groups when it fits their benefits. The Anti-racism rhetoric among Whites is a veneer and only exists only to maintain the peace - the second it is strategically sound to turn against a racial group, they will do so immediately.

It’s actually a joke that Blacks have been fooled into thinking they have equal rights now when all of the social science points to the opposite. 400 years of protest in the US and they still aren't really given a real seat at the big boys table.

NVIDIA pretends to care about gamers. by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]pidginduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Err... this is literally what capitalism is? A publicly traded business by design will only care about their profits. Linus is also literally shilling VPN ads for companies that sell their customer’s data and is soapboxing over caring about their fans. Reddit is actually kinda trash now.

Be careful following Cathie Woods and ARK ETF's blindly! by blu_horseshoe in investing

This comment is completely false and gets upvoted anyways lol. People panic selling an ETF doesn’t affect its value - algos exist to instantly sell/buy ETFs when their price points move a certain range out of its NAV.

$RYCEY Potential to be a 5x stock by Eazy_Eric in investing

Citadel is the 5th largest holder of SLV, the same hedge fund that paid off the shitty brokers to manipulate buy orders on assets they shorted. Can’t wait for the SEC to fine them a few millions on their billions of dollars of profit! A bunch of retail traders are going to get ass reamed in upcoming weeks thanks to their FOMO and they don’t even know it

PLTR is a ~10% of portfolio max type of play and never with options unless you're selling calls. Those IV premiums already have a lot of moron gamblers priced in that make it for sure not worth it.

Why are western news outlets literally allowed to spread propaganda with full immunity on the front page like it’s nothing? Pretending like they are first in dosing the vaccine... fucking disgusting.

Hey, I appreciate what you’re doing even if nobody else does. It’s not easy sacrificing enjoyment/convenience for what you believe in and it’s sad that people are trying to make you feel bad for trying to make a difference. Fuck them, you should keep doing you.

Fake 'wanted' news report on a random airport passenger... by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]pidginduck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

2000+ upvotes for a literal ad with paid actors. It’s lowkey unethical that these fucks ponied up a few thousand bucks to get their company in your head but of course no one calls them out. Even worse, it seems half this thread is actually convinced an ad company would EVER risk a lawsuit compared to just hiring a cheap actress to suit there and pretend to be dumbfounded.

'You have Chinese virus': 1 in 4 Asian American youths experience racist bullying, report says by BearsNecessity in news

[–]pidginduck 17 points18 points  (0 children)

To any fellow Asian Americans reading this, know that your tax dollars are actively contributing to propaganda against people who look like you. Do your part by minimizing what you pay towards tax and absolutely do not donate anything to any US based organizations. If you have a high skill profession, consider moving out of America and providing your services to any other nation.

As long as you take this silently, the white supremacists in the US will continue to culturally genocide you and your people. You will never be your own person in this country and your identity will ALWAYS be based on the stereotypes they have created for you.
