i dont have a partner, but i am (trying) to get over a porn/masturbation addiction myself right now…it’s…way tougher than it feels like it should be, but then i guess really thinking back it’s an addiction i’v had nearly 15+ years now.

so i guess it’s no surprise some people have that issue continue while being in relationship

they are different senses, doesn’t really work as an analogy

a super tight fleshlight would probably work better, which can also vibrate

Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

no, at this point Trump is a braindead puppet for whoever has his ear last.

The likes of Shumer and McConnel are the establishment.

Carter with Rockefeller’s congress, during the last (long) Dem super-majority…proceeded to tie the american pension system into the casino. acting as a regular wave of bagholding liquidity pumps.

Obama, during that short super-majority, passed Romneycare…a blank check for pharma and healthcare corporations to ratfuck public funds.

and of course while all that happens they’re all insider trading the whole time too, the greedy fucks

that is the establishment

obviously republicans are worse, but in a way they’re better…cause atleast you know they’re pieces of shit. meanwhile the dem side preaches Hope and Change to the public while reassuring their donors the status quo will be maintained

it’s fucking insidious

idfk, just a book that (in my eyes, considering it’s age and how well it still applies to today) showed beyond any shadow of a doubt the whole thing really is bullshit.

moreso than any movie/drama saying the same thing which I’d probably seen a dozen times over the years, a dusty century old book laying it all out there removed any doubt whatsoever for me. especially when cross-examined to peculiar differences I noticed comparing US financial markets to others around the world (which generally favor stability), and who ultimately benefits most from those peculiarities.

which ultimately means that it isnt gambling/speculation…if you utilize proper risk management and know (all of) the rules to whatever imaginary line your betting on, whose moving what, what they want, and how you best make $ off their $

until, eventually, your port is large enough that your the one actually moving things. at which point certain strategies just don’t scale up as well as others (recall seeing a Buffet interview saying as much to some reporter).

Just…idk…the flippant way these motherfuckers fuck with the economy, all to just make their lines go up. and how deeply entwined that is/has been with the US government, going back a good…100-125 years atleast. like how government farming subsidies have been used to rig various agricultural futures markets…with the food just being destroyed anyway after uncle sam pays for it, all to “keep prices stable” while americans are starving.

extrapolate this out to all the other shit we’ve turned into speculation, like the homeless crisis and housing speculation. various drug/healthcare problems and our fucked up healthcare/pharma industry, all sorts of appalling health/safety regulations, nonexistent labor protections etc. etc.

and behind every single one of those issues…ultimately just some greedy motherfucker trying to make their lines up go

shit is fucked

i’m not completely batshit crazy, I dont really believe (yet) that there is some uninterrupted conspiracy chain going all the way back to fucking moses or something, just that we’ve seemingly built our economy around one generation of psychopaths breeding another to replace themselves, in some fucked up game of fake-oneupmanship.

and all thats before you take into consideration Trump and Co. (and more stressful to me, the fundamentalists behind them, which got Nixon, Reagan, both Bush’s elected…they’ve been very successful in establishing the christofacist paradise they want so badly, these last couple decades. there is a direct line of connection between the people behind the Moral/Silent Majority shit and P2025)

basically just that shits fucked, and it aint no accident/coincidence.

others on here have expanded on it, some clearer than I was expecting given what I posted so i guess it really is true, more or less.

i know, have started that process too recently. I’m just not used to feeling things so strongly i guess, and really don’t have anywhere else to turn to at this specific moment.

ph yeah, I’m not worried about $ anymore…I think that’s part of why this all came together for me tbh.

been messing with that actively for last year/year and half, very conservatively, and someone finally took pity on me I guess, and let me on the open-secret about the various speculation markets we monkeys seem so fascinated in.

I proceeded to make more in the last 2 months than I could working my day job for entire year (not counting OT), not worrying about bills/rent frees up a lot of thought-time I guess…and this wasnt some “first ones free” luck shit either, 100% certain of the outcome (well 99%, with hedge for if line turned against me)

even bootlickers want to feel like they’re talking to other real bootlickers, in their online spaces, not just bot/LLM spam

(imo)…because the AI/bot deluge is slowly but surely becoming more obvious by the day.

even bootlickers want to feel like they’re talking to real other bootlickers

i just wish they killed less kids and more billionaires

sure is a waste of a bullet though, i could think of dozen more impactful people to off…like…just random example, did you know <10 individuals provide over 60% of AIPAC’s annual funding year-to-year?

and those 10 have a lot of crossover throughout the entire alt-right propaganda sphere, you remove those 10 people and “conservative america” is silenced overnight, as their spokesmens checks stop clearing

if/when someonw irl asks me about this piece of shit…I like to respond “…did you know about this guy at all, before he got shot?”…no? so…why the fuck do you suddenly care now, you might be in a bubble dude"
