Last night wife started to ask all these random questions about the universe. We talked about the big bang, dark matter, dark energy, how stars eventually run out of fuel, entropy... She then finally asked:
-So there's no point in anything?
-Nope
The universe doesn't care about your judgment of my cynicism
Here, this will cheer you up
We discussed that if the universe is always expanding, then it's kinda hard to imagine what was "there" before the universe got there. Like... Empty space with a plaque saying "For lease"?
And... Was "there" always a thing all the way back until the big bang?
And what about before then? If time wasn't a thing before then (which is weird because then "before" also wasn't a thing), was "there" still a thing though?

A scientifically accurate version of Back to the Future where as soon as he goes back in time he finds himself floating in space because Earth has more moved far away.

"Ah but the Flux capacitor calculates and repositions the car"
It would arrive at a different velocity.
Earth moves at 67000mph. It also rotates at 1000mph. The car would either be instantly crushed, launched into space or burst in flames.
So yeah, go ahead and build your fancy time travel machine, so smart...
I understand you must have many questions about the whole dynamics of GameStop, naked options, dogecoin, SEC policies, market volatility and potential correlations with your 401K, so here's a quick explanation:
You must be asking yourself whether you should be buying dogecoin, selling gamestonk, doing the opposite or drinking alcoholic beverage at 7:30am and the answer is yes.
Do you all realize the irony of something being called a hedge fund and then being obliterated exactly because what they didn't do was... well... hedging their positions?
Finance sector will always find creative ways of blowing themselves up with TNT unless they are strictly supervised.
From the decision to open the gates, to let them in, to not send reinforcement, to not arrest and background check every person who got there, who made those decisions and what was the rationale regarding the national security?
And yes, there was plenty of time to be ready, this event was known for days. Remember that with BLM people weren't allowed to be a mile near there.
