Random Thought - Saturday Edition:

Many women talk about how hard housework is, how difficult it is raising children, the mental and emotional labor they experience, and not being “heard” in marriage.

One could make the case that a MAJOR component of this is their own addictions. Many modern women are, or have become, addicted to:

• The party life
• Social media
• Attention
• Promiscuity (new dick)
• Dancing
• Male validation
• Female validation
• Freedom
• Laziness of youth
• Any one of a number of substances
• The unspecified “hope of the future” (see note below)

So a normal, stable, calm, wholesome, dependable, safe, financially sound life can seem like a prison to them; or as many women have claimed, "a slavery contract"

Reminiscing about the old days, college dorm shenanigans, and whatever her ex is doing to day is a form of self-harm. One could live with this, but the long-term consequences fall on the husband and children - not to mention entire families on both sides who are invested in the success of that marriage.

ALL that gets shattered by a woman’s addictions.

Addictions are ugly, capricious, cruel, and relentless. And some of the worst things an addict can do are:

• Deny the problem
• Hide, lie, obfuscate, deceive, omit information
• Ruminate on the past
• Put themselves in an environment where the addiction is readily available
• Framing the addiction as a form of personal freedom, and the person trying to help you as an oppressor (or controlling, or jealous, or insecure, or a narcissist, or a financial abuser, etc.)

I have no way to validate this, so let’s call it an anecdote - a pattern recognized by one man with an obvious axe to grind.

But now that I’ve put this out there, prove me wrong.

@deeplydisturbed it is true I didn't give any direct answer. I assumed that with all likelihood you already know the answer.

There is no reliable way to say are the people that claim to be so goooood [so called grifters] aren't just pile of shit-talkers.

In your list you have missed

• market manipulation with huge pile of money - prominently didn't work in case of GameStop

• providing some information that is false, the opposite from the insider

The main "fake news" about free insulin involves a viral 2022 fake tweet from an impersonator of pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, falsely announcing insulin was free, causing stock drops and confusion;

One I use is learning the stock. I have chosen speculation stock because you need some sharp drops and rises on company that is legit.

There was this dude that APPARENTLY have leant to use QQQ stock and made his fortine on it.

One of the strategies would be to have hacker insider and know when they.him attack several platforms - real important accounts- with fake news to load the shares right after the drop.

which s&p stock rose the most from the Nov 2019

-Nvidia (NVDA): Rose approximately 15.8x (a ~1,480% increase). In November 2019, Nvidia's split-adjusted price was roughly $12.10. By January 2026, the stock reached approximately $191.10.

-Tesla (TSLA): Rose approximately 15.4x (a ~1,440% increase). Tesla traded at a split-adjusted price of about $28.00 in November 2019 and stands at roughly $432.96 in early 2026. While Tesla led the index in 2020 with a record 743% gain, Nvidia’s consistent growth since 2023 has allowed it to narrow and eventually overtake Tesla's total multiple gain.

-Super Micro Computer (SMCI): While it only joined the S&P 500 in March 2024, its growth since 2019 has been even more extreme, rising over 1,400% in the five years leading into late 2025.

Was it luck, analysis or plenty of automated microtransactions and taking suckers for a ride. I have one speculation stock. It has wild rides. If I would trade it more carefully I would get out of it 500% in the last 2 y easily
