When you short a stock, you borrow a stock, then sell it, then you buy it back at a (ideally) lower price. Then, you have to give back the stock plus interest. This person can’t sell the stock because they have to give it back. It wasn’t theirs to begin with. They were just borrowing it.

Yes. Before germ theory and the 1918 pandemic, this was a common thing.

fawning celebration of its subject

That’s all I needed to hear to know that it’s bad.

You don’t choose from where you get your oil. There’s one oil market. You can choose to ban imports of oil from certain countries (like Russia).

The better move is just to migrate further away from oil usage altogether.

I’m confused. What is this proving? I think the original comment was joking that any clothing that humans wear can be considered an ape costume since humans are apes.

Breaking Bad was great from beginning to end. This is a list of finales that over-performed the rest of the episodes.

Star Wars fan here. Star Trek has always been an incredible example in pop culture of progressive values. They’ve supported love in all its forms, diversity, inclusion, and other “woke” values. They’ve created a world where everyone looks out for each other, protects each other, and includes each other. Star Trek is the future I want to live in. So, to all Star Trek fans, I give you a very enthusiastic “live long and prosper”.
