I know I look sweet, but don’t get any ideas… This princess doesn’t play nice. You can admire me all you want, but remember: I always get what I want. Maybe I’ll let you worship me, but only if you beg properly. And don’t forget, darling… I bite back. 👑💋

Getting Pegged in Stocks Wearing sexy black sheer lingerie, stockings and garter belt along with over-the knee leather boots, Elise Graves enters the scene in an unusual manner - by pushing Tony Orlando into view. Tony is locked into a pair of red stocks, trapping his neck, wrists and ankles - creating a predicament of sorts, as he needs to bend his knees in order to line his neck up with the stocks, however, this puts pressure on his back, so he is desperately trying to find the most comfortable position for himself. Elise, though, has a singular focus - and that is getting her strap on cock serviced by Tony.

I keep seeing this rhetoric of "oh it's just placeholder/proof of concept, so the use of GenAI is fineeee, it won't be in the final game, that's all that matters"

like, the main reason that we DON'T like the use of GenAI is because it takes away jobs from creatives, from artists

guess who fucking made concept art and "proof of concepts" before GenAI

FUCKING CONCEPT ARTISTS

that shit didn't just spawn from the ether, concept art is still made by artists, artists who's jobs are still being fucking taken by GenAI

the use of GenAI in HHM is unexcusable no matter what, and if you aren't boycotting HHM until Level 5 makes a public announcement apologizing for the use of GenAI and vowing to never use it again, you no better than those fucking tech bros

Two are artist-made stock images, one is a wholesaler's retail image, and the rest are historical books with their titles filed off. If your Pathologic-themed book club is low on ideas since the Bachelor ARG stalled, you can click on their titles to find them online.

Book_A_02: Marcus Tullius Cicero, De claris oratoribus (texture), published 46 BCE, binding date unknown

Get Ready for the Real Santa Claus Rally

Headed down to Wall Street yesterday to pave the way for Santa. As Yale Hirsch’s now famous line states: “If Santa Claus should fail to call, bears may come to Broad and Wall.”

This rather typical early December seasonal weakness sets up the Santa Claus Rally well. The Street has been buzzing about the Santa Claus Rally for three months now. Most still get it wrong. It’s not the yearend rally, the Q4 rally that runs from Halloween through January. Yes, November, December and January are the best three months of the year, but they are not the Santa Claus Rally.

Santa Claus Rally was devised by Yale Hirsch in 1972 and published in the 1973 Stock Trader’s Almanac. The “Santa Claus Rally” is the last 5 trading days of the year plus the first 2 of New Year. This year it begins on the open on December 24 and lasts until the second trading day of 2025, January 3. Average S&P 500 gains over this seven trading-day range since 1969 are a respectable 1.3%.

Failure to have a Santa Claus Rally tends to precede bear markets or times when stocks could be purchased at lower prices later in the year. Down SCRs were followed by flat years in 1994, 2005 and 2015, two nasty bear markets in 2000 and 2008 and a mild bear that ended in February 2016.

This is the first leg of our January Indicator Trifecta (2025 STA p 20) which includes the “First Five Days” (2025 STA p 16) and the full month “January Barometer” (2025 STA p 18), also invented and named by Yale Hirsch in 1972. This January Trifecta helps us affirm or readjust our outlook. When we hit this Trifecta and all three are positive S&P is up 90.6% of the time with an average gain of 17.7%.”

Based upon the outcome of these three indicators, we may adjust our outlook for the balance of Q1 and 2025. Until then, we remain bullish as this is the seasonal favorable period for stocks. Valuations are a concern, but economic data is holding up, the Fed is cutting interest rates, and the market continues to track seasonal trends and patterns rather closely.”
