I would surmise that there were probably multiple reasons, that lead-up to the on-set of the world wars… I’ve heard quite a few various and differing views and versions, on why?
I am awake, because I awoke from hunger, and I am quite dismayed that my taste for alcohol and it’s effects have been fast waning… but, I knew, that as my health improved, that this wane would exponentially automatically happen… and it has.
If it becomes Your comfort zone, then, there is nothing , absolutely nothing thinking about which can not make sense on some level
Far better to find connections, that may signify some subtle progression , leading somewhere , then the curitive following of one thought, determening what other should follow, as as sheep marching toward their futile attempt to soothe themselves onto their oblivion .
In that darkness one finds the eternal familiarity of an endless brotherhood of man.
I slept until noon today, for the first time in a very long time. It was a hell of a week. I lost about $500. but I made about $1200, so it all worked out.
Also, I just realized that Mercury is retrograde, and has been all week.
Maybe John Wayne does it best. He says to his adopted son in a movie: “I taught you what to do when the snow comes, how to survive in blizzards, and I taught you how to deal with men. But women… Nobody knows what’s on a woman’s mind.”
Phoneutria made a funny meme about that once. Basically women literally tell you, but you go like “what unfathomable thing could possibly be rummaging through this creature’s mind?”
Imagine you were able to predict the price movements on major financial instruments, without even knowing anything about the goings on of that particular industry, but simply based on knowing the patters? That would be quite a thing, no? Almost like magic?
I know what your commie ass is thinking. But consider that most of these predictive tools were developed in none other than feudal Japan, hardly post renaissance European “Evil Banker” capitalism. Around the trade of units of rice paddy.
I know what your commie ass is thinking. “You’re just speculating and thus causing the prices to fluctuate artificially, thus making life difficult for us common folk.” And while I do trade a derivative that is so complex it would make your commie head spin, people are going to want to own or stop owning shares of the main goods and services being traded in our world. The techniques you can use to track the fluctuations this causes, can be applied to extremely illiquid assets like koku of rice in Feudal Japan, pre-computer algorithm Wall Street, and this very day. Oddly, no matter how many or how complex are the derivatives that exist, or how many evil black hearted speculators are trading on anything but their notions of the actual value of the instrument, the techniques work. It’s as if, there is some kind to inertia to the way prices work, because even on an intuitive level, you go “hew i don’t like the look of that market, I’m gonna stand back until it looks a little better and buy then,” because underlying all of these products is an actual factual valuable good or service, that at the end of the day somebody is going to want to be left holding, at ze best price they can manage too. Trouble comes with things like the real estate packages bought and sold in the 2000’s that led to the famous recession, but of course, all these products were heavily distorted by government regulations that essencially outlawed the denial of certain types of real estate loans to certain types of people through certain government owned institutions (Berny Mac and Fanny May) (you got it, to protect the poor, good, hard working man), so that the government was basically saying “don’t sweat it my boy! Don’t worry about it! If these dead beats don’t pay up, we got ya!” This obviously made them very valuable, and suddenly any firm that didn’t hold them was a lot more expensive than firms that did and faced with going out of business, you know, like firms that don’t hold facebook or apple. They may not like it, they may hate it, but they hate going out of business more. And whatever value was salvaged from that debacle, whatever money was retrieved, savings partially or wholy saved, was salvaged, retrieved and saved by diligent gamblers, working hard to squeeze value out of the panic as it stampeded its way down. Not fucking, Obama. Mr “slow recovery, new normal that is until big Trump Man comes around.”
Nobody can predict the future value of things perfectly, comically not even central planning committees of government run “economies,” but if you had the ability to understand the dynamics of the momentums that are involved in price changes, that would be really something wouldn’t it?
Every day the news applet in my trading software tells me things like “fears of this or that caused prices to drop, so-and-so’s announcement of this that and the other caused prices to rise,” I go like hm, that is funny, I had an order set up for that very movement without knowing any of that shit was happening. Amz I some sort of magician?
Maybe. Actually yes, I admit it. I made a covenant with the Satan.
You know actually, thinking about it now, you could probably have a reasonably good chance of seeing that drop come without even knowing those real estate packages existed.

Up again… but that’s because it’s finally a decent time to be up.

Didn’t Lyssa toy with (catfish) Erik and many of the other KTS males, which is probably why she has been nowhere to be seen in recent years… because they were after her blood.
Perhaps we all need to learn from that situation and remain detached… not become attached, to those we talk to at the end of our electronic devices. In such distant exchanges, it is quite common for some to become annoyed, and shut off from the annoyer completely… the worst case scenario being, when you both annoy the other in equal measure, and both equally simultaneously cease communicating.
Fixed‘s ‘marriage’ thread, should also pertain to dating, and all other manner of relationship-related communication, as far as our group demographic goes. lol
Lol well that’s the issue, isn’t it? Our demographic is decidedly small, and usually not found in local activities.
Don’t get me wrong, I find this whole business of falling in love with someone over the internet as distasteful as you do. And people are toyed with in real life as much as these here internet forum boards. But one thing is for certain: the hormones will not be cheated.
