While I appreciate and largely agree with the sentiment, my sappy ass will not be participating in the May the 4th shitposting discourse because my 7 year-old is legit excited for it.

Hi! I'm a farmer! This NYT article is sweet, saccharine bullshit. Farmers knew Trump was going to hurt our business. Because he already did a trade war in his 1st term. I even did a video on why so many farmers support Trump, WHILE knowing he'd hurt our farms.

I don’t think this picture does Justice to the size of this May Day float

I’m at a hotel bar in Phoenix watching the wolves game alongside a bunch of Minnesotan lawyers who are at the sam hotel for a different conference. Ideal sports watching setting if I can’t be in town.

Mine was a group thesis about how the quaternions are a double covering of Minkowski Space-Time.

7 year-old to me: I want to play Donkey Kong Country. It’s one of my favorite games because of you, dad. My heart swells. I limit the video game time he gets but how could I say no to that?

Since we seem to be on a Jacob Frey hate spree, I’ll just add that someone stuck a sticker to a post by the Penn Ave exit on 62 that reads “Jacob Frey has Weird Balls”

Palantir are about six months away from ordering their employees to leave audio logs scattered around their offices

Spring sports in Minnesota means putting on sunscreen while there’s still fresh snow on the ground.

My algorithm is flawless.

The hype around Halloween is completely ridiculous. It is one night long, not a month long celebration.

Sorry but this argument holds no water when the Zelda animated series exists.

Thinking back to 2016 when an investment guy was in our office and said, “can you imagine that guy with the nuclear codes?” and my conservative coworker replied, “better than her who‘s too afraid to use them” all smugly.

At the point where my team is hiring interns who were born the year I graduated high school.

Apparently some asshole went around southwest Minneapolis in the middle of the night a few days ago and stole everyone’s Annunciation signs.

if you don't follow up on anything else from this stupid thread, please watch this clip www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUKl...

"bro is this fetish art 😭" anything and everything you will ever interact with is someone's fetish. someone wants to fuck clouds. someone's horniest thought is to be a branch on a tree. someone's going to fuck a salt shaker. someone wants to fuck math. someone did. his name was albert einstein

What’s worse is that the inventor of the escalator pronounced it es-CAL-a-tor more similar to Excalibur.

Not gonna lie, Minneapolis Schools pre-emptively calling a snow day when the snow is scheduled to stop tonight feels weak. I’m aware that this is a boomer take.

Note to self for later today/tomorrow: at current snow levels it takes 1hr30m to snow blow and shovel the driveway and walking paths.

The internet remains a wonderful place at times

Wtf. I found a proposal made by a shareholder (the Free Enterprise Project) to ask Starbucks why they don’t have detransition services listed under their employee healthcare coverage. I’ve never seen that before, and I read over a hundred proxies a year. Fwiw the vote will fail by a mile.

While we‘re All aware of the skyrocketing oil price this past week, what’s remarkable about the curve is what isn’t happening: the later-dated oil contracts basically haven’t moved an inch. The market does not expect this to last

A coworker recently discovered the local happy hour spot started charging us every time the waiter would come and ask how we’re all doing. They called it a “touch point charge”.

What the fuck. I need to find a replay

This just brought back the repressed memory of the time I clicked on the wrong forum link as a teenager and saw an actual video of a dude fucking an alligator.

Both served in WWII, one in a tank in Europe and one as infantry in the Pacific theater. One owned an apricot orchard/cannery in California and the other sold insurance.

There are a few weirdos who graduated from my high school, but at least I can say this freak didn’t come out of my school unlike the SPA alums. There’s nothing a Republican loves more than living their fantasy of personally injuring a liberal veteran.

I’m setting up a new group chat. Someone send me something incredibly cursed to christen it with.

we finally reached the end of this calendar event i accidentally made 12 years ago

This Philz Coffee I’m at has a bathroom code of 58008

You can find the craziest things on the official Costco app.

Downtown Los Angeles smells like Play-doh

Wild. The pill I take daily now costs double going through insurance than what it would cost out of pocket.

This is the crux of it. Blue Owl’s assets could be totally fine, but if the liquidity of the underlying assets does not match the liquidity of the investment vehicle in which those assets sit, you will have Problems, which is partly why I hate the “liquid alternatives” space.

Man. What a shit day in the market for trying to rebalance a portfolio.

This morning’s gold medal match inspired me. I put on ice skates for the first time in decades and proceeded to eat shit so hard I split my front tooth in two.

Behold. The stupidest game of chess I personally have ever played. I, as black, came back to win from this position.

Buying a new PC in December 2024 remains the best financial decision I’ve made in a while, and it’s only looking better over time.

My kids have never heard of Shrek. I just downloaded the Tubi app to remedy that immediately.

People keep asking me if the Twin Cities are celebrating: - Nobody here trusts a word the Feds say. Folks will believe it when they see it. - Even if they leave, it will be hard for people to feel safe and normal again. - What people will really celebrate is justice and accountability.

Unreal Tournament 2004 is now available for free. ...well, I mean, you probably could've grabbed a GOG offline installer out the back of a truck earlier, but NOW it's Official/Legally Free and has the in-development community patch packed in for ongoing support. www.oldunreal.com/downloads/ut...

Forms 13-F not being due until the 48th day of the quarter this time around is really throwing a wrench in my hedge fund replication model.
