Yesterday was no exception.

Huge $SPY calls were made right at close, expirying IN ONE DAY, before the news was leaked.

Today, they are 100% on these contracts, from 4.26 to 8.52.

They made millions.

Unusual.

Costco is a really popular subject for business-success case studies but I feel like business guys kinda lose interest when the upshot of the study is like "just operate with scrupulous integrity in all facets and levels of your business for four decades" and not some easy-to-fix gimmick
“You can’t say people are our most important product and then treat them like shit.” - Jim Sinegal, co-founder of Costco

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Longest speaking filibuster ever was 24 hours, 18 minutes by Strom Thurmond in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

In a few hours, that record will be shattered by Sen. Cory Booker, a Black man, laying out the case for saving democracy from an aspiring despot.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Attention working-class Americans:

Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.

Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

Don't get distracted by the absurd! The House just passed a budget that massively cuts medicaid and SNAP!

I require minimum 10 hours a week of Just Boppin Around time where I wander around the city with no specific goal in mind to amass small trinkets and treats from various places of business and stop to sit in parks I haven’t been to before. I will not alter my lifestyle in any way that precludes this
