The finest scientific theory since Einstein's Theory of General Relativity. Dariusz's Theory of Stock Picking says that people who trade for a living or endeavor to trade for a living would have been retired already if they were so good at it. "If they were such good stock pickers, they would have been retired already." -Dariusz
The MACD betrayed me, the stock went in the opposite direction. I should have listened to Dariusz's Theory of Stock Picking.

Dead Mall Theory posits a multifaceted critique of modern consumerism and the evolving landscape of digital and physical spaces. Drawing inspiration from the eerie aesthetic of the Backrooms and the nostalgic satire of vaporwave Micro-culture, it explores the decline of traditional malls as emblematic of broader societal shifts.
At its core, Dead Mall Theory echoes the sentiment of the Dead Internet Theory, suggesting that just as malls become "dead" when anchor stores vanish, online spaces are increasingly dominated by bots and AI-generated content, displacing genuine human interaction and agency. This convergence reflects the erosion of authentic connection and the commodification of both physical and virtual environments under the pressures of mass production and consumer capitalism.

I love walking along these halls, such a calming atmosphere but this place isn't making money so dead mall theory is in full effect. I have memories of playing in this spot at the arcade as a kid. Now the movie theatre is gone and the food court is half empty.

Horseshoe Law was once a theory, but the events of the 21st Century have established it as accepted law. However, it leaves certain questions unanswered. For example, the original Horseshoe Law sometimes neglects to mention the role of economics, and the fact that Democrats are not on the side of the Horseshoe, but at the bottom. Democrats are egalitarians -- what explains why some people climb up the right side through conservatism and others through white libertarianism? What finally unites both sides at the gap?
Pyramid Theory suggests that we all start at 0 on an X Axis. Narcissists move as far as they can to one end of the axis or the other, but realize they want to climb up the socioeconomic ladder. But narcissism is lonely without peons, so eventually they lean the ladder back to the middle, meeting narcissists from the other side at the top of the Pyramid, free to practice their Autocracy over the base.

"I get why conservatives would open up two fronts against the Democrats, but those two candidates seemed so far apart -- why did Russia support both of them, and how did they know it would work?"
"At one end of the spectrum, you have Trumpers. At the other, you have Closet Trumpers. One side is proudly racist. The other scrambles for some rationalization that their racism isn't actually racist -- it's just 'identity politics,' 'economic anxiety,' or some other 'distraction.' Find someone willing to regurgitate those old lies, and you have control over the two sides of Pyramid Theory."

The Earth is small. Our bodies and vision are smaller. Every second the universe expands and creates new stars, new galaxies, new planets, and new solar systems. With us sharing the same time and space with the universe we are one and connected. Ever since the the supernova that created our solar system and most of the elements that created our periodic table and that includes the elements that create our body. In short we are created by the fragments of a star. As our body ages throughout our lives we grow weaker and weaker. But, the universe is forever expanding. Expanding into what? Well we will never know the true answers to the universe. If the universe is what holds all of creation and all of space and time what is the universe expanding into. The best possible guess is, nothingness. The universe is expanding into a vast empty space of nothingness, no age, no color, no dark, no light. IF we were able to cross the border between space and nothingness what would happen. There are two (probably more) possible outcomes.
1. We cease of age , since we are no longer connected to the space and time of our universe we are nothing and cease of age and pain.
2. We cease to exist, when your are across the border of our universe and nothingness, since the existence of nothingness is there we escape our own existence as well. Your body, and even your own soul will cease to ever exist.
The thought of nothingness.

when drinking at Red’s, the bar on the sacred heart university campus, you get extremely drunk off of very few drinks. This theory has many witnesses to its validity, however there should be more testing as to why it happens to prove that it may be true.
