Which DAW do you use?

Wtf you’re not me.

>>26551
Yeah that would be really cool! although I’m super busy at uni right now so I have a little bit less time than usual (I mostly visit cc on the train or late at night like right now help). I do have to say I don’t know all that much about EDM, although I do know a bit about electronic music in general (and like grimey techno clubs). I’d really like to learn more about music production and want to lstart incorporating more electronic elements in my music.

I still see men say things like that all the time and try to make it sound like a reasonable judgement of compatibility. It weirds me about because I see the complete opposite (all women need to be virgins at marriage or they are evil irredeemable whores) just as much. God forbid we just have sex when we're ready and comfortable with it.

My dumb reasons for losing my virginity earlier than I should have with was a) I went to christian schools and it made me assume the only reason anyone would delay losing their virginity was for religious reasons, and b) teen magazines were constantly telling girls how to deal with men pressuring them to have sex with them don't want to. I wasn't actually afraid or turned off by the idea, so therefore I thought I should just do it. Once I did have sex I immediately broke up with the guy because of how awkward it made me feel. He didn't do anything wrong, I just didn't want to associate with him at all.

Lol at op pic being spoilered.

On topic, I wish virginity wasn't stigmatized with men since then they might be less likely to get used up in high school-college.
Although part of it may be the degenerate male sex drive to blame, so it might not change anything.

And to clarify, women don't get "used up," just men. Most women are too emotionally intelligent for that to ruin them romantically (with exceptions of course).

>>26074
I don't want to Google a source rn but I thought there was science that showed that less oxytocin is released by your body for both men and women with each subsequent sexual partner.

>>26038
Biologically one some one hits 19 years old not having sex is pretty harmful to some ones psychological and life development(could go into more detail). People don't know that generally but they still perceive it, so for some one to struggle through the pain and "inability" to get it is abnormal and disturbing, so that's why the stigmatize it. You should do your own thing, sometimes finding a decent partner is genuinely really difficult or you're too picky.

I would say it's dating culture that stigmatizes it more than society, if that makes sense. But modern dating culture is a disgusting cancer atm, imo.

Oh what a cute little insect!

>have thousands of miles of perfectly good land

Yeah I have no idea why we would hate mountains
Other than them being a giant fucking waste of space, a parody of good landscape design, a raging sore upon the continent, a car air freshener laden pile of frosted goat shit
They can't even stop an elephant. Imagine being 3000 meters tall, spiky, covered in ice and overall impassable then a bunch of elephants from North fucking Africa stomp all over you without a care in the world and go on to plunder Italy and your stony ass is unable to do anything about it
Mountains are completely and utterly detestable.

>people think mountains actually exist
dear christ

Read political books from all sides of course.
Philosophers also help.

>Is there any point to being political?
No, you're just going to piss off people who don't agree with you. There's nothing wrong with being informed but I despise people who make their lives about politics.

I technically hate politics but I can’t stay away from them. Imo you’re better off not caring at all

Yes, sort of, on this general on 4ch before I got permabanned they recognized me because I'd go on the same rants about fictional characters. I did it a few times and had some copycats and there was some projecting faggot who would call me autistic and try to run me off b/c they would recognize my writing style. Dumb shit. I tried to tell him I was just fucking around most of the time and I didn't care about it but it was like something didn't click in there with him. There was another retard doing the same thing with me. I find it funny how it was always the lunatics…

>>26468
For clarification; the rants where farrr more of "this character so and so should be better and its written bad" then the "THIS CHARACTER IS SHIT AND SUUUCKS" variety. Also I caught a perma-banned for repeated off topic violations which were just janitors being petty cunts.

>>26468
generals are filled with lunatics pretty much

>>26487
Pretty much this. The regulars start to have a sense of entitlement too like they own the place.

Save half of it to make sure neither of my parents have to work ever again, go to college and uhhhh buy lots of expensive anime merch
And I'd buy a large plot of land so I can peacefully live in the woods when I finally get tired of society

>>26459
Oh man deep occult knowledge. I never even considered traders would use it.
Is the stock exchange the most profitable use you can think of for it?

>>26497
Not op but read into hermetics and astrology.
Also learn to control your own mind.
Napoleon Hill's "Outwitting the Devil" is a great place to start.

how come y'all doing cryptos with trading capital well over the $100,000s (and using Meta-trader platform)? Each to their own I suppose. Although I love you for using CCI indicators (as opposed to RSI).

What's your broker/brokers?

>>26406
yeah weird how the older you get the more life experience you have. who would have thunk it.

>>26410
and who would of known you behave more self-centered and arrogant with that…

>Today I read the newspaper and discussed the stock market

what do you mean by "discussed the stock market"? Do you mean the simple stuff like discussing the daily moves for the popular indexes like the Dow and S&P 500? Or the more advanced stuff like discussing recent 10-Q reports and their impact on stock-prices or the more more advanced stuff like quantopian algorithm strategies with high-IQ back-testing and big-data thrown in? Or the wild-card stuff like trading stock options like butterfly-spreads?

please explain in great details I am mature manure-writer (pic unrelated)

>>26448
Not OP, but how would you recommend someone gain knowledge about the stock market? I don't want to fall into any of the cringy traps in that image.
No need to hold my hand, but do you have any starter resources?

>>26457
It depends what you seek in terms of goals/style/preferences. "Stocks" are usually the catch-all term used by the public for all types of financial securities from stocks themselves (also called equities) to options and currencies. Though I would say it is best to start with stocks as they are the easiest to learn, less volatile (compared to the others), and offer other benefits like dividends (which are payments given out to shareholders every quarter; but these are small stuff like 1%), although the downside is that it's not as easy to make a living with stocks with a small amount of money in a short time period (the other securities mentioned are better suited to that; although I wouldn't recommend). Thanks to technology it has never been cheaper/accessible to get into trading securities.

As for stocks themselves you can start right now by opening a account at any discount broker ( https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/investing/the-best-discount-brokers/ ) of your choosing. What broker you picks depends on your preferences; whether you are looking for cheap commissions (which is what you pay every transaction; but those usually dont go past $10) or tools they offer (some trading platforms which is what you use to analyze stocks and execute the orders themselves are more powerful/complicated than others) to finally requirements (some brokers require a certain minimum balance others do not). I personally use TD ameritrade which offers thinkorswim platform (referenced in meme-pic).

Once you open a account you can pick a stock and how many you want to buy and it's instantly executed if within the normal trading hours of the week. What you do next is up to you weather you decide to hold that stock for 10 years or 10 seconds (the latter is called day-trading, the former is investing). Most people when advising beginners tell them to just a buy a mutualfund/etf for the Dow/S&P (which gauges a picture of the market overall) and to leave it untouched, as they suggest against stock-picking. However if you are interested in stock-picking which requires more of your time but allows more flexibility…

The best strategy I recommend for beginners (as in what I personally started with) if you're insistent on stock-picking and not holdiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
