ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.

actually they're important to the very wealthy so everyone else in the country has to pretend to be interested too.

i guess the problem is that pareto himself thought alpha was like 2.5 which would gently caress this one up a fair bit and prolly the ratio is more closer to 1/100 than 1/10 anyhow. so it's deffo more like 100,000 peeps w/ retirements as opposed to 'financial advisor' bloodsuckers, not 1 million, if you whacked edward jones and transferred all aum to a low cost mutual index fund. but hey, 100k peeps isnt nothing

the expense ratio wars have in fact mostly been fought and won, really. edward jones has 1 trillion aum but the low cost dealios have higher than 10 trillion aum. the typical bloodsuckers now suck on rich peep blood in "hnw" thingies and pension funds. i have no sympathy for the first and we should get on kicking them out of the second

tying the retirement funds of the american population to the stock market was a brilliant move on the part of the banking industry. number must go up or there will be a lot of destitute retirees

looking at the last year or so, everyone knows that something has to give as this isn't real or sustainable, but number just keeps going up to new all time highs multiple times a week

the best weed gummies i've gotten are the twd sativa strawberry ones. they can be convenient but they're expensive (even compared to weedchocolate) and require more planning than i usually care for

long ago I worked as a line cook with a woman who had lost most of her teeth to meth abuse. she got the rest of them pulled in preparation for getting some dentures and the whole time she was toothless she would make gumjob jokes. i hope she's doing well today

I've had no fewer than three "jesus loving christ am I about to get shitcanned" moments in the past 48 hours and I've just about had it with modern society and the capitalist hell machine

please bring on the nuclear warheads so I can either get turned into a carbon flash of a dude jackin' off or live out my days free of the curse of technology

I spent the last day and a half working on fixing a strange stable vs unstable cluster routing bug only to find that it’s been the intended behavior the whole time I just assumed it was a bug because it’s dumb as hell

On the plus side it means I’m done with this now after I update the docs! Friday wooo :toot:
