$1 is worth BRL 10.

You buy $ 100 with BRL 1000. You tell your broker, you'll pay him back later the BRL, for a fee. That's a "short".

You package it in a bet that says "whatever the difference is in BRL when I pay you back, we will do it 10x". That's "leverage", alternatively also "insane stock market gambling nonsense".

The tariffs get announced. You can now get BRL 10.2 for $1, because that's how the stock market thinks it's should be. You pay back your debt in BRL with $98. The difference of $2 gets increased 10x because of that bet. Congratulations, You made $20 with insider trading.

Usually you try to hide these things among the general stock market noise and not trade so much money, that it makes a visible dent in the evaluation of an entire fucking currency. It's common place, but as usual with Trump, just more on the nose, more blatant and just more fuck you.

For children it was perhaps the last time where at least a bit of your innocence could last beyond age 12 or 13. Less control, more "well, the sun is shining, let's hope they will be back by dinner". I've probably never have known a neighborhood in more detail than when i was 8. You could do something stupid and it wouldn't be filmed or photographed, with date and location tag, immediately uploaded into the cloud and available at a buttons press. You could get BORED, and then you'd do something that you hadn't tried before, because you couldn't just grab your phone and bombard yourself with tiny dopamine hits.

My nieces/nephews are struggling with this so hard. They are good kids and their parents are doing a commendable job, but they are lucky to have enough time and enough awareness to strictly limit their kids access to media.

Don't worry, You Are (Not) Alone.

The smell is unbearable. Probably the only place these should be smoked is in the Cuban jungle. I've had a pleasant cigar experience before, but it's much worse than cigarettes for everyone in a 200 m radius.

People here focus a lot on the fighting and difficulty.

Just so you know, it's also absolutely gorgeous to look at and the game feel is incredibly tight and responsive. If you just run around in it for an hour or two, but don't have the patience for getting really good a tapping your shoulder button, you probably still have a good time.

The only one that was on par so far was Nine Sols. It has the most insane final boss I've ever seen and the only bossfight I had to grind harder than Father Owl. Probably took me 8+ hours over three days. After beating it, i felt like I could parry bullets in real life if just tried a little harder. Gorgeous and deeply engaging game too.

When you walk as a group, little conversations and pairs will form naturally, chatting and joking along the way. I will very often walk by myself, either pacing too slow or too fast, nobody joining me. Sometimes it feels like an escort ques, where you just don't have the correct walking speed button.

On the other hand, I'll find and love you other weird fucks easily at a party, bouncing erratically around from place to place or telling me for thirty minutes about your favorite type of algae when I asked what you did today. Just gotta get invited to a party sometime again...

If the director has a great sense of humor and a horror background, just make Hornsent the protagonist. Also Jar People please.

Most slop isn't made for my taste, so I'm honestly looking forward to it.

Feels more like the dope ass bear is looking at me.

I work in heavy industrial production and my company bought another.

Their plants were in a much worse state in regards to health and safety. Higher incident rates, worse safety practices, less maintained equipment and a worse culture about mistakes and criticism lead to people get hurt much more often.

Among all the corporate nonsense, I appreciated that they actually invested the money to make work safer. People get heavily injured or lose their lives when dealing with these large machines. Most of the workers there were grateful as the last owner was just interested in running the plant dry, no matter the cost of human lifes.
