Not my favorite composer, my name should give my favorite away, but he is one of the greatest. Love the 9th, first heard it in its entirety on a head full of LSD, what an experience.

My favorite Beethoven composition is String Quartet No 15, specifically the 3ed movement. He titled it 'Heiliger Dankgesang', holy song of thanksgiving, which he wrote after recovering from a nearly fatal illness. One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Give it a listen if you haven't heard it before.

If you want to just mess around with stock strategy purchases with little risk, I would suggest looking into paper trading. Something like ThinkOrSwim or Investopedia will give you money to 'trade' with and track your portfolio performance for 0 risk.

And on another note, can I say just how fucking stupid it is for right wing pundits to try and dunk on gamers right now during a major election season?

Republicans are experts at shooting themselves in the foot.

I'm fucking dying. That is worse than Harry Colliflower, often considered to be the worst professional pitcher ever from way back in 1899.

Both parties enjoy swapping out who is the minority party. Brings in more cash donations being second.

Women are simultaneously victims and empowered. They pick which state to exist in depending on which gives them the greatest advantage at the current moment.

ToldInStone on YT makes some good content covering the Roman and Greek period.

Drachinifel makes fantastic videos covering naval history, from sailing ships to battleships.

Metatron also makes some quality videos covering more of the martial aspects of the Roman Imperial period. Very not woke and has pushed back on many of the revisionist history theories that are popular at the moment.

Townsends. Does 17th/18th century historical cooking videos in period dress and gives good first person accounts of the times.

For something different: Dave's Garage, does historical videos about Windows and the PC era from the early 80s onward. Worked at Microsoft himself and wrote core programs for the OS like Task Manager.

One of the reasons why WWI was so terrible was that most wars were short and rare in Europe so no one expected it to erupt so badly.

The Kaiser told his departing troops in August 1914 "You will be home before the leaves fall!"

Always relevant Hunter S. Thompson quote:

Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for fuckoffs and misfits—a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector, but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage.

The most 'prestigious' award in journalism, the Pulitzer Prize, is named after one of the most infamous muckraking, yellow journalists of the age. That should tell you all you need to know about journalistic integrity.

Not ESG directly, just an outcome of the near 0% interest rates and QE practices the Fed has kept rolling along for years. If you can get billions of dollars in loans that you only have to pay back at pennies on the dollar, that is basically free money.

Next they should study disparities in sentencing based on gender. Or would that be too revealing?
