So far buying the dip and selling the top all my crypto could go to 0 and I would still have a profit. I'm not a shill for it I like the concept and think at some point there will be one that overcomes the current limitations but I question if any of the current batch can be that one.

That said anyone who saw the wild swings and jumped in without DD is getting what you get with any investment you don't do DD on just magnified by the size of the swings. Yes I'm down currently and I'm holding expecting a bounce back but that could be a way away or never happen. First rule of investing is don't bet what you can't afford to loose.

I had to log on just to give you a NW flag GTBrit.

Probably would have left on the last bit but came here to say pretty much the rest.

Why because now they have a white and black man, and a white and black woman to choose from? I'll still go as the fourth doctor but it's nice that people will have a choice. Freedom of choice is pretty awesome isn't it.

This country is a Democracy even when your candidates lose.

LMAO did that come out of a Trumpers mouth?

cough cough Jan 6th cough.

Add in VPN's and crypto and I could telemedicine with my next door neighbor and it would be pretty much untraceable. Sure the NSA might be able to trace all of it but a state government? Not freaking likely.

Although I wouldn't put it past republicans to try and compel the NSA to assist state governments in tracking their own citizens, instead of securing America from outside threats. Cause a woman trying to get an abortion is a much bigger threat than North Korean hackers.

Wait; he cheated on his wife while she had cancer, then killed her and someone thought "hey this seems like a good guy to oversee educating our children".

What the actual ----.

Amazing how many pro-lifers are also pro-death penalty.

I assume it's because Jesus was a fisherman so they follow size limits. Throw that one back it's too small we'll kill it when it's bigger.

At first I couldn't see any way this could be worded that would stand but then I remembered the make up of the SC. Now I can think of a couple. Sigh

It's a happy ending because he defines his own identity in a masculine way. Had he liked wearing tractor dresses Boaz would be pissed that the father let him define his own identity.

There is and always will be a moral panic.

In my youth it was Satanism spread through music, games, movies and TV. The freaking Smurfs were implicated at one point.

My kids had to watch out lest they become mass shooters thanks to video games or eat tide pods thanks to youtube.

People are always willing to latch on to a few extreme cases and act like that is the norm and the kids must be protected gosh durn it.

Well I get pineapple I mean it tries to eat you back.

How did mandatory car insurance get past due process and equal protection? Is it simply because of the second that it would be an issue with guns?

I assumed it was something like that but I kinda wanted to hear it from a gun owners perspective. Like I don't know possible failure issues that would cause concern. I mean we've had basic fingerprint locks for a while now and I haven't run into issues with not being able to use those. I'm sure in the 9 years since IPhone got it the tech has matured.

Tillis might be one of the few politicians I despise more than Cawthorn. Yay NC!

I would agree that and student loan forgiveness should be paired with reforms to the higher education system.

In the past 20 years in state tuition has gone up more than double inflation. When I was a student you could get a degree in underwater basket weaving and not be out the cost of a good car. In 2002 it would have taken 6 years of in state tuition to buy my car in 2022 it would take only 2.5 years. Fix that and student loan debt stops being an issue.

A 2k handgun? I hope you donate some serious training and range time to the kid as well so he can defend himself from all the people who would seek to relieve him of his new gun.

I'm not a gun owner but I do support the rights of gun owners so would you be willing to share the reasons so few gun owners are interested?

If I owned a gun I think I would want a way to ensure my wife and I were the only ones who could use it.

I'm pretty strong for gun rights and I just never understood the problem with using these systems.

Sure hacking but how often is your phone hacked? Heck a gun wouldn't even need to connect to a network so remote hacking would be impossible.

If we allowed victims to sue gun owners I bet demand for a system that would make your gun a brick if stolen would go way up.

Nice pistol though.

Search the area for marijuana fields or a meth cook house.

Well you can ignore those who disagree if they are all pedophiles and groomers. Hence the need to inject that into the public discourse.

It's the same dehumanizing process authoritarians have used for ages. Only pedos and groomers would let your kids read these books now you have isolated those ideas from a generation making the kids even easier to control than the parents had been. It is it's own kind of grooming ideological grooming instead of sexual grooming.

To me sitting at a desk in front of a computer would destroy my mind far faster than most manual labor could destroy my body.

That's the thing though what one dude enjoys is someone else's job from hell. This massive push in society to have kids decide at 18 how they want to spend their life. I got into chemical engineering at 18 and was lucky enough to know by 19 that it was a mistake. How many kids realize it's a mistake but carry on due to pressure and end up with a mountain of debt and a career they hate but are trapped in?

It's hard to blame kids being uninterested in work for the sake of work. What is worrying is the lack of understanding that when you find your dream job you will actually enjoy working. At that point you are no longer working for the sake of work but working for the joy you derive from work.

Or tldr: Chose a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life.

Snoofy libertarian who doesn't think gay marriage equates with marriage to kids pets or any living thing incapable of consent. Marriage to cars and body pillows is fine I guess.

While I try and avoid no true Scotsman I do question a libertarian who has an issue with love/marriage/"adult activities" between consenting adults.

Also pedophilia is wrong period end of story and the biggest beef I have with the trend of throwing around accusations is that it cheapens what is a truly horrific crime. So far none of the "conservatives" I know in real life have jumped on that bandwagon or I would have to smack them down (verbally of course) like I have over a couple other issues.
