Gonna be stuck riding shotgun with my boss on a client site in some dump called Hoover Alabama Tomorrow-Wednesday. Never heard of this town, but it sounds like its named after the bigoted FBI director that spied on King and other Civil rights heroes in the 60's. Why they pick my immigrant ass to do this in the age of MAGA I'll never know.
I cant even protest loudly either because I told them I am open to any engagements out west, and Alabama is considered "west" from Georgia.
If I dont make it remember your boy as a real one.

So, as we all know next year is the big 2020....an election year.
Also a year where I am at a point where I have enough in savings to attempt what I would have considered unthinkable in last decade.
I have flirted with the idea of attempting to time the market in an election year. I know timing the market is fool's errand, but hear me out here:
We will be either voting out a president in November, Either by a replacement republican or a new democrat. I see no way in which Trump keeps his job after being impeached in the house.
A new path forward means a boost, even if only temporary, in the markets as investors are inspired by this change.
My plan:
Frontload my 401k so that I am completely maxed out ~ April. From here my money would get settled and have a few months of growth before gaining a substantial amount when November rolls around. I get the most return out of the year, and sit pretty during the upswing.
The cons to this is for 3/4's of the first 4 months of the year I will be getting ~50 a paycheck(I can only go so far based on company policy towards my 401k). One of the months is not accounted being Feb, where I would get a rather substantial tax return. The other con is it would roughly half my Emergency fund. My office has enough free food to where I could survive eating most of my meals there, but the simple impact of rent would be the major issue. I also have a trip to Los Angeles, a pretty expensive place, to visit my girlfriend in early February so I would hope my tax return is in by then to lessen the damage of that.
Is this an absurd idea?

“It’s a campaign of id,” said one senior Harris official, laying much of the blame on Rodriguez, but also pointing to a leaderless structure at the top that’s been allowed to flail without accountability. “What feels right, what impulse you have right now, what emotion, what frustration,” the official added. The person described the current state of the campaign in blunt terms: “No discipline. No plan. No strategy.”  Aides describe a bleak environment in which workers have started to openly question the judgment of managers after seeing colleagues marched out the door. During a recent meeting, aides pressed Rodriguez and Maya Harris for answers about campaign strategy. At one point during the more than two-hour discussion, Maya Harris herself turned to Rodriguez and challenged him in front of about 20 staffers, and several more listening in by phone. Rodriguez seemed unprepared for the exchange, according to people present. They walked out with little consensus about how to prioritize upcoming events and strategy around advertising.
One recently departed aide tried to sum up the mess: At the staff level, the person said, “everybody has had to consolidate. Everybody has had to make cuts. And people are pissed. They see a void. They want to push someone out. And I understand that. But the root cause of all of this is that no one was empowered really to make the decisions and make them fast and make them decisively.” https://www.politico.com/news/2019/11/15/kamala-harris-campaign-2020-071105She's done.

Met a girl last weekend at a coworkers party. Shes beautiful,witty, and very smart. She also laughs at my jokes and is a citizen(First generation). She was in town all week for a conference and we spent some time with each other each day this week. Last night she went to a homecoming party with me and really held her on in a foreign environment for her. I told her I consider her my girlfriend, and she agrees.Her company is sponsoring them to go the hawks game tonight. After that she is going to pack up in the hotel and spend her last night in Atlanta with me before she leaves tomorrow. My older brother thinks I am a fool, but screw that. He secured his wife when he was in a teenager. Im 30 next month. I need to get a move on and make moves.

Of course Hindsight is 20/20, but I think the idea of a "Kurdistan" proper should have ended 91 or so years ago with the defeat on Mount Ararat. Everything after that point should have been focused on maintaining culture,tradition,language...ect and acquiring wealth. The terrorist route was just going to piss off the immediate neighbors and make any sort of action going forward look disingenuous.
Did anybody really think the PKK's disagreement on ISIS was on general religious or decency grounds? Nonsense.
The above is neither here nor there now. Turkey is about to commit a genocide, and I dont think any of us have the stomach to stop it after the Libyan fiasco Obama agreed to. Shame.
Our Kurdish brothers and sisters learned an all too valuable lesson this week:
"Dont deal with the devil"
I wish them nothing but the best. Some of the best people I have met on this earth were of Kurdish descent.

Who wants to sit at a train station for 30-45 minutes just to be dropped off in a location where you will have to walk 20+ minutes or uber to your final destination?  Atlanta's public transport system is laughable, and something you would be disappointed with in a THIRD world country, much less in the most developed city in the South.
