It was a pathetic and very predictable response from a bully that is not used to people standing up to them. Whatever anyone thinks about Markle, Morgan has been on a crusade like a stalker for days, and mental health and suicide are not things someone in his position should dismiss so frivolously. He is a nasty misogynist whose behaviour onscreen would never be tolerated in any other workplace.

Weirdly there was a meme about him earlier today but it has started to be pulled from everywhere. Can't remember the punchline but here is the image

Holy cow when beanz says, ā€œthink about that for a minuteā€ so you stop and do just that, and sure enough it’s still all fucked up. What’s this shit about not having concerns for other things due to the pandemic. WTF man a lot of us were working through this whole thing. We had a lot to focus on other than the pandemic. I won’t let them use this to scare the shit out of this do we no longer question what is going on around us. What was it CNN making that comment ā€œthe pandemic has been great for ratingsā€ ya it’s been great for many multi billion dollar corporations while the little guy gets fucked. I go into Walmart to buy pet food as most of the pet stores are still closed. Cant even turn around or distance properly in the place. What a bunch of schmucks we are. Shit so all my stay at home stocks are still pumping. We did have a correction to an extent I don’t know if it’s over so these big conglomerates are bringing in bulldozers of cash while the little places I continue to see ā€œout of businessā€ signs popping up everyday. So no you take your precautions, you do what you can, but stay in tune with life and what’s going on. Our politicians took great advantage of this pandemic. I don’t know if it’s the same in England. Don’t focus on this pandemic 24/7 suicides, overdoses, domestic abuse are skyrocketing due to this shit. And now the eviction moratorium is being lifted I’m already dealing with one eviction the poor girl has no where to go. What till this shit cascades. If you continue on this track beaner it may be the end of us and I will go back to miles.

Well anyway that’s done with know oddly bitcoin was pumping today. A buddy of mine bought some at 55k. He was asking my advice I told him when I see something pumping 2k a day I question if it’s a good time to jump in. Well he didn’t want to think about that he got fomo jumped in at the ATH and maybe a week or less it started sinking. I think it went as low as 43k so of course I get another call. He asked me should I sell. I told him In my experience panic selling doesn’t work well unless he put too much in and it was going to ruin him financially. See I can’t tell people what to do I’m no advisor or expert and besides he is one of my best buds money can fuck up friendships. So anyway he did decide not to panic sell and sure enough bitcoin was back at 55k at a point today. Perhaps he got out whole today but that’s not the impression I’m getting. This is probably one of if not the most volatile assets you can get into. The other side of that coin it’s one of the best performing assets in history. From under a penny to 55k in under 15 years. Shit ten years ago if you put a buck in bitcoin you are a multimillionaire today. Really quite amazing. Now we got ethereum about to possibly do some crazy shit. Could fuck up and go to 0 mind you.

Ok what’s new with watches. I went to one of the few remaining junk shops around and found a 14k gold mathey-tissot for 5 bucks. Today mathey-tissot is owned by a Chinese conglomerate but in the 50’s it was still a family owned Swiss business. I restored the watch as I liked the look of it cost be 80 bucks in parts. Then I looked on eBay and found the exact same model just sold last month for 795 bucks. Now that one was in mint condition mine isn’t. I think a fair value for mine is probably between 5-600. Maybe 650 if you found a mathey-tissot collector. I think I’m going to give it as a gift to my in-laws. Ok I talked about bitcoin and watches the thing that pisses everyone off I’m done. Thanks.
