Add doomerism to that list too. It used to be for fringe Chan users and outcasts but then Reddit and TikTok made it into a neurotic cringe fest.

Super smart enlightened leftie Redditors are extremely suspectible for propaganda just like anyone else. The difference is that us rightoids know we are dumbasses and easily manipulated while Redditors are super arrogant + think they’re above it. Germany still counts antisemitism as right wing crime in their statistics even though currently most antisemitism is probably from the left. Funny how fast things can change.

I almost thought it was some sort of African dish since they have a habit of just piling ingredients on top of each other without rhyme or reason and calling the slop "food", but then I noticed the chop sticks so you're probably right. Quite a sad excuse for ramen.
I'm only curious about the dish because it could help explain the sort of man she went on a date with.

Looks like a "fancy" ramen bowl at a "decent" place. They even did the gay little heat stamp on the egg. That should say enough about this Gaijin Spinster.

This week was the worst. i woke up Monday around 7 am pst, and i looked at my phone there is discord msg from one of the paid stupid groups to buy spy calls, i jumped in and on the spot lost like $400. Then i got mad and started playing mindlessly and ended up losing $2500.

Later at night i bought weed (even though i have quite a month ago) and then around 11 at night smoked and started trading. It was so bad to the point i traded spx extended hours options while having the wrong chart open and lost like $1200.

Woke up next day so angry and started playing again, lost around $400 more so got more upset and closed all my robinhood stocks and wanted to close the account because fuck RH. Now i changed my mind because its a nice app.

My robinhood since 2018 until today I lost around $10,500 in options alone.
My schwab retirement account I lost $45,000 in less than a year in options.
My wife robinhood I lost $35000 in tesla options during covid

Im thinking i will start doing swings with whats left in my retirement. Or just put them all in Spy and live my life or just advice?

The only person I've ever seen make out well with options long-term was somebody who somehow identified Enron as a scam early on and rode that sucker to zero. And even he had some unpleasant moments at first.

You not only need to be right, you need to be right within a specific time frame, and the people standing on the other side of your trade are almost always pros who sit glued to their nine screens 14 hours a day with an army of researchers backing them up. Same sort of issue with commodities.

Pity this guy is apparently married. His best chance to offset all his realized capital losses is to find a rich widow with lots of unrealized capital gains, marry her and have her sell her stocks to offset the losses with gains.

if you're trading something like $SPY or $QQQ where the options spread is no more then $0.01 apart and where the stock itself has generally unpredictable swings throughout the day, you're not playing against pros it's all just feral gorillas screaming arbitrary numbers at each other and panic buying/selling once The Line reaches an arbitrary threshold.

I've developed a fun new game I like to call Reddit Whaling. The goal is simple: block accounts with really high karma.

At first, this just started out with me blocking really obnoxious people. True believer NPCs, obvious paid propagandists, bots, that sort of thing. You only get so many blocks per day - something like 30ish, I want to say - and you can only block 1000 people at a time total. There are more than 1000 redditors whose every word is a waste of the electrons it takes to deliver them to the internet. Probably closer to 100,000,000. So I've been saving my blocks for people I'm likely to see again. Random idiot with 50 karma unironically using the term "drumpf"? I'll never see him again. Why block him? Nolife loser screeching for 6 paragraphs to supplement his 100k+ karma? The odds of seeing them again are too high. Block.

Over time, I noticed that I was having fun with it. I'd look forward to opening someone's profile and seeing hundreds of thousands of karma. It feels good to block someone knowing they spend day in, day out on Reddit, mindlessly repeating the worst takes you've ever seen, all in the endless pursuit of karma. And now you'll never see them again. And there's nothing they can do about it.

The only real rule - aside from "one's value as a human is inversely proportional to their reddit karma" - is that you can't seek out karma whores intentionally. We all know people like gallowboob, we know they're the biggest whales of them all, but you're only allowed to harpoon them if you see them in the wild. Otherwise it's just unsportsmanlike.

I also stay out of (and in fact mute) karma whore subs like pics and politics to make it extra challenging. And because while whaling is fun, not seeing any posts from r/politics is much more fun.

I just wish I could sort blocked accounts by karma so I could admire my biggest catches, like a fisherman putting The Big One on the wall.

I've developed a fun new game I like to call Reddit Whaling. The goal is simple: block accounts with really high karma.

When I was still using Reddit regularly I put together a userscript that did the same thing and fed the blocked users into RES filters. The RES hooks for karma broke out comment vs post and I set the limits for comments to something fairly high like 250k and the post limits to 25k. Just scrolling down all would block 2/3-3/4s of all posts and had a pretty low false positive rate for fresh content. My RES blacklist was something like 8k users and 600 subs before I gave up on it entirely.
I know that defeats the purpose of the game you are playing, but my goal at the time was to make reddit usable for a bit longer as it slid into the dumpster.

The only problem with that game, is that it requires a reddit account, and being on the site as well.

The best part about blocking on reddit is that they can't see you. The RES filter is a good half measure, but it's not nearly as big a "fuck you" that blocking is.
