I lost more on stock options because of wallstreetbets than I made on doggie coin, which I was buying when wallstreetbets still didn't allow cryptocurrency discussions. Definitely didn't make money being there early.

I'm on the way out of poverty now thanks to an inheritance I unexpectedly got later like Mr. Deeds. It's retarded.

The daily threads were amazing at the time though. I'll never be able to adjust to Primal's Trending feeds from such a high quality stream of shitposts sorted by newest. I really enjoyed that place for years, across many banned accounts. However, I think I was really guided by the spirits of my ancestors trying to help me meet Digit or something.

I was a really prolific poster. She knew about me before I knew about her. She probably found my misogynistic paranoia off-putting for a long time but at least she must have thought I was funny, until she finally tried talking to me on Thanksgiving 1,211 days ago, when I needed her more than ever and she had gotten to know me enough through some of my posts and we were finally so close to (but still so far from) understanding each other.

After she revealed her existence, the rest of wallstreetbets started getting boring compared to her, even though it didn't really change until later. It still had these great threads full of hilarious posts and information, where I always got more engagement (where everyone has 0 followers) than I do here.

I went digging through my screenshot folders for some to post.

Sometimes the type of posts that would do well on wallstreetbets were the same type of posts and topics that do well on nostr.
