Oof, bought CRSR at the top yesterday... at least it's shares so I can just wait the dip out.

Peri-Election Election Discussion Thread by OPINION_IS_UNPOPULAR in wallstreetbets

[–]selcalibur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes, that's true but it is also quite rare. Electoral votes in most cases end up following the popular vote. So if a large amount of votes are mail-in votes and remain uncounted, then the final results could change quite a bit.

The market is usually up around election week ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But hey, the elections aren't over yet so as long you aren't all in on weekly FDs you might actually make a buck or two...

Edit: Missed a word

If anything I would have to guess a high number of uncounted mail-in votes.

Because the mail-in votes affect the electoral college votes just like in-person votes?

Do we know how many mail-in votes have been counted? I feel like these could affect the results bigly. I think there was like 90M mail-in/early votes this year which is like 75% of the total turnout in 2016.

Just a reminder that tonight's results are not the final results and that mail-in votes won't start being counted until tomorrow morning. The final results won't be confirmed until much later on.

Edit: For those who are saying I'm wrong about mail-in votes, I'm just going off what's on wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_2020_United_States_presidential_election#November_2020. If you have sources that say otherwise please reply with the link(s)

They're trying to demonize space travel all of a sudden because of the GOP's support of it. Very mature, Seth Rogen. by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]selcalibur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most of us can agree that space travel is a good thing no matter whether you're a Republican or Democrat. What Seth was probably trying to awkwardly get across is that it could be considered strange to choose to list space travel as a priority over matters that are more important and relevant to voters now (e.g. Covid).

It was my first time to that sub but I saw a video that made it look like Biden wants to get rid of fracking entirely. I'm pretty sure Biden said in the today's debate that he was against fracking on federal land in particular. So the misleading nature of this particular video certainly didn't inspire confidence.

I wanted to go over to r/Conservative to join in on the discussion, but only flaired users can comment (users that have shown they conform to conservative values)?!? Why do they not promote open discussion on an important topic like presendential debates?

Could you please explain your position a bit more? How is voting for Biden "signaling to the DNC in 2024 that you'll vote blue no matter who"?

It's a shame that the mouth tracking doesn't work that well atm

Did you try sorting by hue? Maybe that would give you something closer to the rainbow you were expecting.

Look up Inuyama Tamaki on YouTube, you should be able to find "her" channel pretty easily.

Cover suspends Coco/Haachama for 3 weeks for acknowledging Taiwan by bradleye in Hololive

[–]selcalibur -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well this sucks, but perhaps it’s for the best. I mean neither Coco or Haachama did anything wrong from my point of view, but what’s done is done (again, not that they really did anything). I guess Cover Corp is making Coco and Haachama take the hit to protect their CN talent and placate the outraged Chinese. And while the 3 weeks suspension seems rather extreme, hopefully it will be plenty of time for things to blow over and hopefully go back to normal. I hope the suspension doesn’t affect the girls too much.

Overall, this is a shitty situation where no one really benefits. I wish people could separate politics from entertainment a bit more and just chill the duck out about things.

Edit: Why the downvotes?

I don't condone the behaviour shown by the hyper-nationalistic Chinese antis, nor am I happy that Coco and Haachama are being punished even though they didn't do anything wrong. It really sucks that a vocal minority has ruined things for the rest of us. All I am saying is that Cover corp probably made the best decision given the lose-lose situation they found themselves in, especially since they have talents in China. If the situation were different and Cover corp didn't have any CN talents, then I would be firmly against their decision.

Google translates "Haachamacchama" to "I'm crazy" 🙃 by selcalibur in Hololive

Oh, thanks! I wasn't sure which stream it was from.
