I just use Robinhood because I'm just using some play money from last year (I'm basically just trying to see how far up I can get from just $100)

I think most people play with their 401k and retirement money with this, so they're just going with whatever those are held in.

In the past I've just used that TD Ameritrade stuff to play more serious, but that was a good 15 years ago and decided that I didn't want to be a full time broker and pulled out. It's not a game for the feint of heart and if you're looking to make a quick buck you're going to need to pump stone serious money into it - when I was more into 15 years ago you needed to play with at at least 10k. I'm not sure what it's like the days to play for real, but I'm sure you'll get some more feedback. Take mine with a grain of salt since I'm obviously not so serious about it these days.

Yes, just saying though, it's no secret and wasn't back then either. Back then I guess people weren't as conditioned or still thought for themselves. Maybe the elders still had their wits.

Right now a big thing I'm noticing is the older people, the elders, are providing ZERO fight on this and complying immediately - they do however don't really buy into the whole THE UNVACCINATED ARE KILLING US.

Overall though, they're just folding and it's a cornerstone they've managed to break...

Also, during that time, I traveled to the other side of the world in Asia and got sick with some shit that correlated with SARS and crap then - I just weathered through it and got back home fine. Didn't get scared and go OMG DOCTOR TIME!!!

They don't even call their "customers" customers. They call them users. Just like in another industry.

Probably because when you're in direct moonlight there's no insulation to help keep the temperatures higher, whoever might've done the observation might not have considered this.

I don't think there's been that heavy of a study done on this but I'm going to gamble that insulation is the factor with whatever you're talking about.

I highly doubt moonlight brings a negative energy. I do think that moonlight would not bring any sort of heat with it since it's attenuated indirect light. The analogy might be an LED light vs an incandescent light.

I just took a look, I kind of see it.... it looks like some occlusion from the low temperature but humid air, kind of making a halo. It's probably more of a cross shape since it's a waxing gibbous moon.

It's not a full shape but fuller then half, approaching the full round shape. Since it's in that state and the mist in the air is occluding the light, you're seeing the halo come out more like a cross.

I think things are getting to you, turn off the TV or at least tune the channels away from the peddlers of this shit.

The old game show channels don't mention anything about this crap.

I think with children it's more important to have them eating more healthy foods so that constitutes their needed vitamins and minerals. Taking them outside and having them be active helps too.

I know that could be a little more difficult depending on where you live but having them eating the right vegetables, meats, fruits, and grains goes a long way with avoiding sickness. Avoiding sugary stuff is another good idea - NO SODA OR SUGARY DRINKS - have them drinking water most of the time (your one year old should be getting plenty of milk still, probably around 8 oz per day at least.)

I also think you really need to be extra careful about administering vitamins to children because I think it could wind up causing them more harm than good. Giving too much can tax their system, probably mainly the kidneys, and that could wind up giving them stones...

So... I think overall it's up to you what you'd want to do, nobody's going to give you SOLID advice because it's not something people typically wants to screw around with - what I can tell you though, definitely don't go overloading them with too much of any vitamins or minerals. Maybe you can do some math and figure out what these vitamin protocols are based from - what the average weight of a person might be for taking the regimen - adjust proportions according to your children's weight and go a little lower on the doses....

Maybe. We peons will not know anything that happens, it'll just be an ultimate attitude change... They're but going to let up what they've managed to wratchet up for a while though, at least I don't think so anyway.

If you ask me I think we might be at the apex of what they can pull, I don't think they're prepared or really willing to go any further if that guy is really dead... Head is off if he did really die off

We'll never really know, people in this level will continue to exist through their cohorts - at least for a while - to continue the agenda they've set in motion.

If he is really dead we might notice some more sloppily brazen acts to try and jam things through, but ultimately it'll putter out and fall apart - it might happen quicker than you think.

I agree. This "bit by bit" routine is getting old. Something substantial needs to actually happen.

It's ironic too because there's Ms. Pacman and that's the better one.

Also it was originally "puck man" but they figured it that is way too easy for the he's who lives matter more to graffiti over that to replace the P with an F so they just wound up calling it pac man.

I was going to comment how it might be mixing this up with some Indian holiday - took a quick look and found nothing similar.

Interesting.

I keep telling people this, but they just don't accept it.

Makes sense, you're in the union and that's what's got you covered, which is good. I'm just trying to say not everyone is in that sort of Cadillac coverage you got going on - just turns into how you're in the union and get it. I get it, and I'm happy for you to have it.

I've been considering a career shift into something like that but I'm making good money up front with just much shittier coverage. I guess it's something that all pans out at the end...

Working at Wendy's for $17/hour, that's pretty damn good though. I just don't think it's really true

That's fine I get it. You're lucky to get a decent package like that. All I'm saying is that I'd like to join that club too, what's the number?

Joking aside, good for you. I'm prevented to join this club you're in for whatever reason. Typically I think what we have for most people is what I described: You're paying close to what you're paying for garbage coverage. It's not anywhere close to what you're getting covered for and it's too complicated for normal people to digest, so they feel covered until they get their low deductable plan garbage shit and find a 10k bill coming their way

Sounds like you have at least halfway decent "insurance"

Most of the people I know pay much more per incident. It also sounds like you're paying the ~$200 for yourself, which is kind of high especially if it's just for yourself but fine enough for just a single person.

I just don't know why everyone just accepted this bullshit that happened and even now, keep accepting this nonsense. It's like the government just figured out how to royally fuck everyone over nice and slow enough without any sort of resistance.

YOU NEED THE INSURANCE. Yeah, so you can keep being tracked and throw away your money more into this shit

It's not fucking insurance, it's paying into a club. When you're a member you can get whatever benefits they give you. This shit with the insurance racket is way in overdrive already and it's poorly defined to begin with. They need to call this shit "health clubs" that have the same exact shit they do already.

It was more like insurance before that Obama monkey came in and fucked it up, at least before his nonsense it was a simply stupid "copay" that ranged between $50-150 and you're fine and done. These days? If you're fucked you're going to spend a good 10k+.

How is this better!!

These people taking these shots are absolutely sheepish and insane...

I've been seeing it for YEARS with these idiots who go to the doctor over a fucking sneeze or any other little thing. They work to pay for their doctors and cell phones. How they afford a house? I'm guessing it's just the old money from the family... Or they're just incredibly in debt and just don't fucking care...

This is why it's considered "for horses only" since they don't really have any tamper evident stuff going on.

I can tell you that if you get them in a 6 pack they at least come wrapped up in plastic as a brick of six boxes (Duramectin brand, pack of six - costed about $60 a few weeks ago)

I'm seeing this first hand between myself and my wife. We are DEEP in supposed mandates and have yet to hear shit.

Wife works in school and the SCHOOL NURSE is yammering at those who have yet to take any shots or tests.

On my front, where I'm working for an MNC, I actually haven't heard shit. Not a fucking peep.

We also live in an area where the "door knockers" were going through the neighborhood. Guess who didn't get a knock?

I can only hazard a guess that we've NEVER bothered to be tested, even when we went through some sick spells, and that's why we're not getting bothered.

We're not playing this game one bit. My wife is not going to either. THE NURSE is half assedly telling her to go get tested at whatever point. She's not doing it.

I think we're just in this crazy game of chicken with a lot of people and they're going to falter first. They know they can't fill positions of the people refusing to play.

If you've decided to go get tested and play this game then shame on you, you're going to keep getting harassed.

Now I don't disagree with you, but isn't what I described the kind of bullshit these mother fuckers do to keep ticking?

If you ask me, running your business as a corporation is already capitulation. You're just "playing ball".

Don't get me wrong, I prefer to stand my ground on shit where I can - this is a case of 200+ people who might not know better and trying to help them out. Maybe another solution is to totally restructure and just make everyone contractors where you come up with an independent health insurance pool. Give all your employees good contacts and poof your company is down to the minimum employees and you're managing contractors that you're very benevolent to.

It's a gray world we're in, you play or be played. Right now, having 100 or more employees puts you in a situation of getting played and I just described a solution out.

What you're getting at is just stand there and get steam rolled. I'm suggesting you make a pivot, if it makes sense. It might even wind up being advantageous. At least figure it out in case standing your ground isn't going so well ....

I wonder if there's even a way to figure out how to tax deduct the fuggen "fine"...

Can you start another company that splits the employees?

You have company A with 200+ employees so you split that into companies A,B,C.

company A can remain in control of B and C.

Employees just get "reallocated" across A, B, and C as appropriate...

Just find the cheapest MVNO and just use that. Most of them are cheaper if you buy a full year's worth of service in advance (you can get unlimited everything for a very low price, less than $15 per month)

They all offer no contact monthly plans too if you wanted to give them a try and see before committing to a year.

I use redpocket and it has worked in every part of the country I've been in, but whatever else you find is going to be just as fine. The only thing that happens is you're at the bottom of the priority list if you're in a congested tower and usually you will not be finding a reasonable MVNO that uses Verizon towers (I don't think that'll make a huge difference these days, you'd have to scout it out)

I think the nature of the business is that it's all going to paying the devil in the end so figure out the way to pay the least... with redpocket I'm paying less than $20 per month between myself and my wife, WAY cheaper than what many others pay for similar service. We paid <$100 for decent umidigi phones that cover the radio frequencies we'd want to have, but you can probably use what you have already or just find similar cheap decent phones to use.
