Art you buy through galleries can usually be resold for current value (ideally more than you paid), less commission either to a gallery or an auction house. I have done this once or twice and “made” a little money or swapped for something in the same ballpark, but the art market is fickle and slow, so I wouldn’t (EVER) choose it as an investment strategy in the least

If you're buying a decent artist from a good gallery, they'll be holding significant amounts of that artists work as stock and so will engage in a fairly high degree of price support. If one of artist X's paintings goes onto the open market and achieves a true value that's just a tenth of what the retail price of the paintings sell for, they're screwed. All that stock they're holding becomes worthless. All those customers who bought work from them in the believe that they'd at least hold their value if not appreciate will be furious and might want to be made good. So when the paintings come up for auction, the gallery will ensure the price doesn't fall too low.

But a couple of economists did a study of the returns made by art over the last fifty years. They identified 2.3 million paintings that have been sold in that period. Of those, just 32,000 had sold more than once. Where are the other two and a quarter million paintings? The economists hypothesis is that they aren't traded because they'd sell at a significant loss.

I'm always struck by the values of paintings on the Antiques Roadshow by painters who were well regarded artists in their day, but who were never at the cutting edge of some important art historical movement, so are at most, a footnote in the history books. The prices invariably depend on how decorative the painting is and whether there is a significant body of collectors interested in that artists work, but I'm always shocked by how little they're valued at once they no longer have a gallery actively maintaining those artificial price supports.

I'd highly recommend Don Thompson's books, The 12 Million Dollar Stuffed Shark: The Curious Economics of Contemporary Art and The Orange Balloon Dog: Bubbles, Turmoil and Avarice in the Contemporary Art Market if you have any interest into how the economics of the art trade works.

That reasoning doesn't make any sense. The weight of a given amount is useless information when you have no idea how pure it is. 125mg that is 80% pure is twice as potent as 125mg that is only 40% pure. The average drug user doesn't have the chemistry skills necessary to determine the purity of a given substance.

Making sense or not, I can imagine Nick smartass thinking himself as a great alchemist mixing the cocaine + ketamine at just the right amount to deal with his calculated """stress"""

IIRC, Thailand was not the first place he landed. I think he wanted to go to Japan (because he's a weeb), but couldn't get in due to COVID restrictions, so he spent some time in South Korea, and then I think Thailand came afterwards.

The simplest explanation for Andrew is he has "yellow fever." Pretty sure he's even admitted so.

Again, I am not a fan of Andrew, but Barnes is an utter shithead for insinuating what he did.

One good thing about Andrew is I doubt he's gonna turn out like Nick if he goes back to asia. Unless he's a fucking idiot. Asian drug laws are pretty draconian, from what I understand. I think in some countries, like Singapore and Indonesia, they straight up execute your ass if it's over a certain amount.

He said not long ago that he's pretty much completely sober with very little drinking, even. Though, if he's at someone's house that's smoking pot, he'd have a toke or two if offered, which is really rare.

 

[Tumbling tubers are terri]

The historical pics of Kayla and Nick made me sad. I was curious to see if Nick's eldest is actually in normal school because Nick often lies. He is. He made high honors (over 3.5 gpa) as of Dec. 2023. Local news published the honor roll. The family side of this gets sadder and sadder.


Aaron has no reason to lie? Come again? I can think of dozens of reasons for Aaron to lie.

- His hurt ego
- Revenge
- To get April out of the Rekieta's home (for the streams before the arrest)
- To get April to turn on the Rekietas
- To get April back
- To get Kayla to leave Nick
- To get Kayla clean
- To get April clean
- To be with Kayla
- Clicks and views
- General fame for future ticket sales; he is a stand-up comedian if I'm not mistaken
- To get the police to arrest Nick
- His ex-wife demanded it in exchange for avoiding a custody fight
- The cops/Kayla/kids asked him to go public behind the scenes
- He knew the arrest was coming and needed to distance his involvement
- To deflect his own responsibility for his own career (such as it is)

It's very convenient that he claims to have fed the kids and did very little cocaine. A decent defense attorney could easily destroy him.

(To be clear, I believe much of what Aaron has claimed. I'm simply pointing out that he has a serious credibility issue.)

Aaron is still lying! He says he hasn't been there in 2 months. He was there April 11 when nick had shortest stream ever.

I think the cops was investigating Aaron first. If you read that search affidavit the sister called out Aaron and april. The cop was watching Aaron's streams. Aaron turned on a dime and started saying he got off drugs but he can't say anything about the others. That was the 13th.

From there he claimed to be talking to family of both the Kayla and April.

The nick stream happened and he then openly said they were strung out and needed to get out of there immediately. The night before the cops got them he was really weird scared to death someone would see his phone. Which he never does , it's always out where you can freeze the frame and see what he is doing. After phone call he said that was important step to get the girls help.

Cop watched nick only after he watched Aaron watching it.


April was suppose to be at Aaron's that morning to pick up her stuff.


Anyway I said all that to say Nick and Kayla are crap for not caring for their kids. However I won't be surprised if we find out Aaron and his biker buddy cheetos at stoneys bar was the supplier. If that footage shows them going directly to the bedroom to search . I think it's a safe bet Aaron's side hustle was dealing. The show was dead and they had "stacks of problems" and missing the goal on the regular.

OK sorry I rambled about stuff already covered. However it bothers me Aaron is getting a pass.

 

[Tablet County]

Bam married the whore he looks up to

If Nick were to do the same would he get gay married to Dick Masterson?

 

[Father Balldo]

So, how did Nick's lawsplaining of the Karen Read trial today go?

 

[shaverinocory]

I agree but the thing with the scale is…what was it for?

They weren’t packaging and selling things (merch, eBay shit), they sure as fuck aren’t baking or bulking. I know it’s all what if but honestly WHY do you think they had a scale? He wasn’t weighing before a buy, sure as fuck not after is the drive is 2hrs.

As an addict, you weigh your shit when you get it so you can seethe when you inevitably get fucked on weight

 

[Swole McPole]

Thailand's reputation for this is so dogshit that I automatically gave the side eye to a  female friend of mine when she told me she was going on vacation there.

Most men are going there to have sex with young Thai prostitutes. In the main, they aren't having sex with children. They are having paid-for sex with women twenty to thirty years younger than they are.

 

[Tiny Chinaman]

What kind of morons are sending these halfwits free money? It's no wonder the empire is on the verge of collapse. Why would anybody send cash to these 21st century Elmer Gantrys to do anything but be productive? I just don't get it.

Its wild that the super chat grift has been normalized to the extent it has

 

[Get the rope Macaulay!]

County authorities moved on the Rekietas because they had no choice.

more proof of that is all the money that the county got from Nick and friends constantly speeding, Nick in prison or even out on bail means no more thousands of dollars in moving violations that the Rekietas just pay because he has the money for it. he was the county's version of Howard Hughes, it didn't matter what absurd think Nick asked for because he'd slap down the money for it. he easily made more in a week of streaming at his height as the regular townsfolk do all year.

Nick said it to impress the diddler.

which is hilarious because if we're all being honest with outselves, Kayla vs Marie at any point in the last half decade or more, Kayla wins outright. much like the barbie dream mansion, Dick's life is actually pretty pathetic even compared to 2018 era Ethan Ralph, but all these retards try to live up to his persona instead of the reality.

and they looked like an appropriate couple.

nope, Gap Tooth nick lucked out hard. Maybe its the modern day looksmatching fucking with me but he was batting way above his league, especially given that we know how fucking weird Nick is, like if they were both normal and sweethearts i'd agree but nick was near-chris chan tier weird and with no charisma and was a fucking male cheerleader. the fact he even got the time of day shows how easy the dating scene was pre-social media.

. I'm sure that's what most of the episode will be about.

i'd be surprised. Not to get into the backstory but Mike has been shouting for awhile that Aaron & friends are Patrick Melton's territory to mine, the only reason he went after Melton in the first place a decade ago was because Sven (Null's favorite animator) pressured him to do it and now that him and Sven have ended their friendship Mike is almost entirely back on good terms wit Melton. Jules pretty much had to force Mike to even do the segment about Aaron not satisfying his wife. Also Mike & Jules have the same views on children as Dick Masterson so don't expect some epic takedown, especially with Aaron looking like such a hero during this story.

 

[DumbDude43]

Edit. Also, having a scale to prevent rip off doesn't mean you take it to the transaction. Someone as afraid of conflict as nick would likely buy first and bitch later, privately to his harem. Never to the actual plug.

it's not about "this guy shorted me? i'll step to him and beat his ass to teach him a lesson!"
it's more about "this guy shorted me? not buying from him again"

 

[Not Even Twice]

Ok having caught up once more and since there isn't much going on in the Rekieta lore right this moment, I have a confession to make Kiwi bros.

I have in the past, once or twice, dabbled in pre-boiled eggs.

 

[TurdThrower]

Wasn’t there a cuckold simulator that was adding real life celebrities and had Jack Murphy in it? I feel like a Rekieta update would be nice

There was and Rekieta streamed a few playing sessions. He would do his Ron Toye voice non-stop while playing it. I can't find any of the videos anymore so I'm guessing he stealth deleted them at some point. I think he even had the dev on his show at one point.

 

[Mundane Ralph]

That reasoning doesn't make any sense. The weight of a given amount is useless information when you have no idea how pure it is. 125mg that is 80% pure is twice as potent as 125mg that is only 40% pure. The average drug user doesn't have the chemistry skills necessary to determine the purity of a given substance.

You assume 100% purity and increase your dose as needed. I used drugs for years and was surrounded by other drugs users. Everybody owned scales even if they only smoked weed.

 

[Niggernerd]

I kinda wish his dealer was just giving him flour and before he got arrested found out. Started throwing shit around, slapped Kayla and said "I'VE BEEN RATATOUILLE'D

 

[Queesechake]

They did a long segment on Steel Toe when April wore the bikini making fun of them hard, and also donated $300 to the first live stream Aaron did after the story broke thanking him for the entertainment. They've also been making fun of Steel Toe consistently for years. Mike had hundreds of people emailing him about it there's no way he's not going to dedicate a pretty big portion of the show to covering it.

 

[chomp chomp]

Coomalot is so dumb. Nick is only talking to him now in hopes he wont spill more about hookers and whatever happened when they shared a hotel room.

You would think he would realize how Nick didnt want anything to do with him and stopped returning texts for month. Then he gets busted for crimes and Aaron starts spilling all the degen shit and suddenly Nick gets all close to you again?

Come on dummy! Nick is using you! Tell us what you know.

 

[Harm]

I recommend people follow this guy, he's been clipping Aaron, the Liar's members only streams lately, and no one in the comments nags you to "buy them coffee" so that's always a plus.

Come on dummy! Nick is using you! Tell us what you know.

It's a symbiotic relationship. Camelot is using Nick's crimes to farm superchats, and Nick is using Camelot to balldowash him publicly. It's mutual exploitation as they are both scumbags.

nah you have to take into account the environment at the time
young kayla was a pretty normal looking girl, young nick was a pretty normal looking guy (maybe a bit spergy, but above average height)
remember, they met like 20 years ago, a time before two thirds of college girls were walking red flags (blue hair, onlyfans, obese, radfem, progtard, or a combination of those)

if you compare her to modern day girls then yeah young kayla seems like a 9/10 top tier exceptional dream gf, but back then a girl like that was just normal.

 

[feral cat #6385]

m starting to think really dumb people operate on a different frequency than everyone else.

Yes a much lower frequency. Like a 40 watt bulb.

C'mon you beautiful, bald bastard. The book is right there, it's so heavy and powerful, you know you want to throw it at the both of these child abusers.

Well the judge is up for reelection so....

don't think he's dumb enough to defend himself at the omnibus hearing or in any evidentiary stuff or fancy motions in the lead up to the case, but there's probably some stuff where he's like, "yeah, i don't need to pay a lawyer for an hour or two of labor to do that."

Never underestimate Nick's ability to fuck things up. Might want ot have a look at his Defamation case. And the Vic Case.

Kandiyohi is correct, not Anoka.

Give him a break. He was busy emptying whiskey bottles as he typed it.
