With the sad news that Darren Grimes is leaving Twitter to join Locals (let's be honest, he's not), I thought it the perfect time to bring back an old thread, looking back at some of his finest moments on this website...

 NB: Throughout this thread it's important to understand Darren has deleted nearly everything he's ever tweeted. You might wonder why. Over the course of the next few tweets, you will see why.
1. When he rage quit the Conservative Party in 2019, cutting up his membership card before realising that wouldn't help his grift in any way whatsoever. He now pretends it never happened.
2. When he backed Donald Trump running again in 2024 following his recent election defeat. It must be pure coincidence this tweet was deleted the night of the Capitol Riots. Once again, he now pretends it never happened.
3. When he successfully predicted the Capitol Riots... but slightly misjudged the details
4. When he had to crowdfund his legal fees in late 2018, and completely forgot how old he was
5. When he criticised young people for "moaning" about their lives despite spending every waking hour tweeting about how much he hates his life in London
6. Quite simply, his tweets when Boris Johnson was hospitalised by Covid
7. One of Darren's Twitter habits is tweeting the same thing over and over with slightly adjusted wording
8. One of Darren's Twitter habits is tweeting the same thing over and over with the wording slightly changed
9. In response to news EU Citizens were not having their rights guaranteed post-Brexit, Darren thought it a good idea to tweet this
10. After recording, editing, and watching his David Starkey interview several times over. Darren was shocked to discover Starkey had said several racists things during their conversation he just hadn't picked up on at the time.

An incredibly unfortunate thing to happen.
11. Earlier last year Darren was invited onto Politics Live to discuss the Irish Election, a day after tweeting that he found Irish Politics "bloody confusing"
12. This video
13. When he admitted to never trying pilates as he thought it was "for Jeremy Corbyn"
14. When he demanded broadcasters stop asking him to speak about Dominic Cummings... and then spent the next week appearing on every media platform defending Dominic Cummings
15. It's a real shame Grimes so regularly deletes his tweets, there's so much we could all learn from such a master debater
16. It's a real shame Grimes deleted his Facebook, there's so much he could learn from... Darren Grimes
17. With over 100,000 deaths since this tweet, I wonder if Darren will ever pause for a moment of self-reflection...
...somehow I doubt it.

Britney Spears’ boyfriend, Sam Asghari, is speaking out in support of the pop star following the release of the FX documentary about her.

@NardineSaad reports

Asghari gave his support to Spears and was bluntly disparaging her father.

He said he has “zero respect” for the elder Spears, who has a court-approved conservatorship over the singer.

“Now it’s important for people to understand that I have zero respect for someone trying to control our relationship and constantly throwing obstacles our way,” he said on social media.

That's not all he said...

Tupac Shakur (1971–1996)

A THREAD


Tupac Shakur was an American rapper and actor who came to embody the 1990s gangsta-rap aesthetic, and who in death became an icon symbolizing noble struggle. He has sold 75 million albums to date, making him one of the top-selling artists of all time.


A sensitive, precociously talented and troubled soul, Tupac was gunned down in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996 and died six days later. His murder has never been solved. Tupac began his music career as a rebel with a cause to articulate the travails and injustices endured by

many African Americans. His skill in doing so made him a spokesperson not just for his own generation but for subsequent ones who continue to face the same struggle for equality. In life, his biggest battle was sometimes with himself.

As fate drove him towards the nihilism of gangsta rap, and into the arms of the controversial Death Row Records impresario Suge Knight, the boundaries between Shakur's art and his life became increasingly blurred — with tragic consequences.

A thread on how absurd the UK is on transgender issues and how the UK got so transphobic

In 2015 Parliament held an inquiry looking into the state of Transgender equality. Trans people of all stripes outlined many different problems across many, many different areas.

As a result Parliament created a list of recommendations including legal recognition for non binary people, gender recognition act reform, allowing 16 year olds to change their legal gender and reform of NHS gender identity services.

The government under Theresa May ignored everything that was recommended except for Gender recognition act reform. This act came into law in 2003 and gave trans men and women (but not non-binary people) the ability to legally change their gender on their birth certificates.

The process at that time to change your birth certificate under the GRA was to make an application to a panel of cisgender people who would decide if you were sufficiently trans based on your payslips, photo ID and bank statements. You would not get the option to speak to them.

(Also this process cost £140 which is just a tax on being trans)

JUST IN: The U.S. National Climate Assessment is now public.

Again sharing bank nifty intraday weekly straddle. How to play by selling straddle.
Mostly will work on Monday to Wednesday. Sometimes on Friday.
Why to pay your money to learn this if u can get it here.
U need only practice.
Let’s go.

Say bank nifty future is at 32000.
Sell both 32000 call and put.
Considering current volatile market lest say premium on Monday morning is 350 on both sides.
Sold with 700 points combine premium.
If bank nifty will trade in narrow range say +\- 100 hold it.
If moving 200 points

then exit previous sold straddle. Sell new one. Let’s say BN moved +200
Now sell 32200. If bank nifty will move here within range then u will get profit through theta decay. Follow same procedure for next 150-200 pts move.

This is only for single straddle sell position.

Now in second case sell three straddle. 31900/32000/32100
In case of 100 points move no need to change.
If 200 + then future is 32200.
Exit 31900 and sell 31200 straddle.
If moving another 100 then exit 32000 and sell 32300. Continue same with 100 points move.
If no move then

it will consolidate between 32000-32200 or 32100 to 32300 and u will get theta decay.

This is for normal move. Sudden big move may come anytime. So keep SL in system.
If u r selling at 350-350 then keep SL in system 475 for both legs.
Practice it. No need to attend webinar.

My dad led an organization of over 300,000 employees.

When I took on my biggest marketing & events team to date (35 employees) I asked him how the *heck* he did it. Here's what he said and what helped me every day. 🧵

Remember you're leading all the employees under you, but you're not *managing* them all. You're managing your direct reports, which should be 5-7 individuals max. Focus on them.

When you interact with the employees you don't manage directly, get to know them as people first, that'll be the most valuable information in leading them. Remembering everything you learn about them is hard, but doing so will make you a superhero.

If you're not going to empower the managers under you, why do you have them? If you see room for improvement, let the manager know and let them make the change on their teams and come to you with questions/concerns. This will save you SO much time.

If you're the smartest person in any room - you're doing it wrong. As a leader, your job is bringing together the best people to get the job done - your skillset is identifying those people, not being one of them.

So it's now October 10, 2018 and....Rod Rosenstein is STILL not fired.

He's STILL in charge of the Mueller investigation.

He's STILL refusing to hand over the McCabe memos.

He's STILL holding up the declassification of the #SpyGate documents & their release to the public.

I love a good cover story.......

The guy had a face-to-face with El Grande Trumpo himself on Air Force One just 2 days ago. Inside just about the most secure SCIF in the world.

And Trump came out of AF1 and gave ol' Rod a big thumbs up!

And so we're right back to 'that dirty rat Rosenstein!' 2 days later.

At this point it's clear some members of Congress are either in on this and helping the cover story or they haven't got a clue and are out in the cold.

Note the conflicting stories about 'Rosenstein cancelled meeting with Congress on Oct 11!"

First, rumors surfaced of a scheduled meeting on Oct. 11 between Rosenstein & members of Congress, and Rosenstein just cancelled it.
