Next week will have lots of political excitement going on, I’m sure. Despite that, hopefully you’re having an OK week

Our felon President just launched a self-described memecoin. We are so fucked.
Drunk.
Got laid.
I was part of a mass layoff from my well-paying tech sales job, with no prospects lined up despite having been looking. Now I don’t have a way to pay the emergency housing unit I’m in, could be homeless for the third time soon, this time unemployed. Trump is set to be inaugurated in less than 3 days.
fuck. i’m very sorry to hear it. it’s so cold out too
I’m just over here preparing myself for our nation’s gears of power to be handed over to an anti-democratic felon rapist and his party who historically only benefit the ultra-wealthy.
In other words, I’m looking into buying a firearm and protecting my assets.
Things are about to get a whole lot more desperate in this country.
looking into buying a firearm
For everyone thinking that: look into taking classes on how to shoot the thing BEFORE you buy it.
It’s a lot harder than you might expect, and a gun does you no good if you cannot put two center mass if you ever have to use it.
Meetup group I’ve been looking forward to joining turned out to be right-wingers. Not the worst experience this week but my gay ass trying to make friends while everyone laughs about leftists having no friends was uncomfortable.
Wore a mask at the request of an immunocompromised coworker and a customer immediately started making fun of me.
Trying to take the advice of an ex-friend and stop giving a shit what anyone thinks of me but it sucks that my entire country mocks me 24/7.
Lost a decent paying tech job a couple months ago. Not able to land anything. Finally applied for hospitality gig since it was my previous industry. Got the job, but they don’t offer health insurance. Debating whether or not to just call it in and say no thanks…
I wonder what will happen if a bunch of people lose their jobs all of a sudden. That worries me.
If there’s a critical mass, then we get into Something Must Be Done territory, and various levels of government will do what they can to handle it. Of course, that’s if there’s government left, so who knows 🤷
I dunno, Something Must Have Been Done about the pandemic too…
And the recent spout of inflation…
And the corruption in the Supreme Court, among other places.
And for women needing access to proper medical care…
For some, suffering seems to be the point, for others it’s immaterial, leaving far too few to try to help.
But, that’s a problem for next week.:-)
This week I made a little over $1000 on the stock market. I’m literally one stock. That’s $1000 profit. So I’d say I am doing pretty good.
The stock market seems like it’s going to be in for a bumpy ride soon. Quick highs, and quick lows.
Watch a stock. When it drops, buy it. Quick jump? Sell it.
I’ll buy on (for example) Tuesday and sell on Wed or Thursday.
If I don’t have a morning job I’d be able to buy morning and sell late morning
Volatility kicks ass when you’re trying to make money
Surely you can’t think it that simple…
