today’s story was one from last April that I had never heard before and it really fucked me up. one of the connective threads between a lot of these stories is agents treating “don’t let this person in your custody die” like an annoying inconvenience they wish they weren’t burdened with

‘No one deserves this’: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

I inhaled traffic fumes to find out where air pollution goes in my body BBC health correspondent James Gallagher gets his blood analysed to understand how air pollution is killing us.

'Deposits of black carbon from air pollution have been found in the human body including in placentas analysed after birth.'

There are non-germ reasons for masking outside.

Article fails to mention air purifiers, though.

Trading offers distinct advantages: Working from home, flexible hours, and independence from conventional workplace dynamics. The time and energy this frees up allows for pursuing meaningful work or interests without constant financial pressure.

My goal for this year is $500,000.

Job security isn't guaranteed; layoffs, terminations, workplace injuries, and health issues can all eliminate income while damaging long-term financial stability.

Trading is not too risky or essentially gambling. While elements of probability and risk are present, I'd argue these same elements exist in traditional employment, often with greater consequences.

i've been studying NDEs since i had a short one from covid in march of 2020. very interesting stuff. wonder what other useful things if any we could get from them other than interesting stories/messages.

Curious about day trading? Message me.

Now let's look at some positives:
-Financial freedom
-Your own hours, work from home
-Sharpen various skills/expand thinking
-Work on your discipline and emotional control
-No risk of getting sick
-You don't need to deal with humans; very little stress

If you want to be good at anything, it'll require time, effort and dedication. Needing significant capital is false. You can start with a couple hundreds. Like any other skill, real time decision making will become natural. High stress and burnout? Sounds like every corporate job.

As for the indistinguishable from gambling part, who cares (and it's better than gambling with your health)? What matters is whether you win or not and what you do with the money. As for quitting and losing money, that could happen with any job if you think about it.

You know what else is high risk? Starting a business: "According to 2024 data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 20.4% of businesses fail in their first year after opening, 49.4% fail in their first 5 years, and 65.3% fail in their first 10 years." Don't forget all the risks and liabilities.

You know what's high risk? Working a "normal" job and risking getting sick/injured and becoming disabled and never being able to work again and having unlimited/new/higher expenses due to being sick/disabled.

...It requires intense, full-time dedication, significant capital, and high-stakes, real-time decision-making, leading to immense stress and burnout."
