I’ve had a few people from my old job, after they made fun of me back in February for preparing for the pandemic, ask me how I knew what was going to happen.
Well, I didn’t “know” in any conventional sense. I examined the risks, determined a spectrum of likely outcomes ordered by probability and impact, and decided to hedge, as a good trader always does. It’s just as simple as that. I don’t have a crystal ball or psychic powers. I just know how to manage risk.
This *must* be a satirical account. It’s far too close to what @TitaniaMcGrath writes in her new book… https://t.co/x5PMjoL1aw pic.twitter.com/kVW7jYFYVB

In the future, everyone will be a terrorist for 15 minutes.
Ok, I’m a jerk, but I do continue to find it hilarious that the same crew who told many very lonely (mostly) men that “no one NEEDS love, sex, or human contact” is going just fucking apeshit during this long lockdown.
How’s it taste, fuckos? God I love the comedy that the universe sometimes provides. It rarely provides justice, but comedy? Yeah, it’s got that.
I’d like someone to do a sociological study about how and why so many experts were so wrong about mask-wearing early in the pandemic.
These people had access to all the same information that I did, and more, and yet still got it wrong. How is that possible?
Increasingly, a lot of the left believes that anything that is not exactly what they want to do or think should be done is fascist.
Gets tiresome.

I’ve always kind of had this attitude, but when I got out of the army I decided to just live this way. And now when I don’t want to do something, I just don’t.
It’s such a better way to live. Don’t want to do something, fucking don’t. Quit being weak and pitiful. Own your own fucking life. Quit whining. Understand that there will be consequences, but be woman or man enough to take them.
(It helps to have money.)
The next time some misogynistic a**hole yells, "f her in the p*ssy" when a female reporter is working, I only want to see another person yell "punch you in the head". Then punch them in the head.
