Good Morning! This is Mother Squeezer, the newsletter that helps you pass time by bringing you clever life hacks, updates and insights along with timely information about our favorite Activist Investor, Ryan Cohen, and our favorite stocks - GME and BBBY.

Thank you Bed Bath and Beyond for setting the expectation. We now know when to be looking for the update that we're all anxiously awaiting. In case you're not on the Bed Bath and Beyond Investor Relations email list, they sent out a message yesterday afternoon letting us know that the big update will be announced on Wednesday, August 31, 2022 at 8:15 am EDT, presentation material will be ready and available at 7:30am.

It feels like we can now be productive with our lives and not feel like we're on standby waiting for something. It's probably a good time to cuddle up and watch a movie. Have you heard about the newest trend? They are finally making a movie about clocks. It’s about time! /joke

Now that's what we call the butt of the joke.

This brings us to this morning's life hack. If you're heading to the theatre this weekend and want to bring your own snack, Angela has some advice for you.

Hey, we can't blame her with the prices of movie theatre popcorn these days.

GameStopNFT tweeted:

Great reminder, have you recently reconnected with nature?

Did you know?

Movie theaters make almost zero money from ticket sales. Almost 100 percent of the money from ticket sales goes back to the movie studios that made the movie. Therefore, theaters need to make their money off concessions.

Reconnect With Nature

The GameStop NFT tweet got us thinking about reconnecting with nature. Here are a few ideas:

• Eat Outside to Reconnect to Nature

• Make Intentional Goals to Spend Time in Nature

• Start Fostering a Relationship with Nature at an Early Age

• Drive a scenic route to work

• Make outdoor dates with your friends and family

• Grow something

• Try a new nature activity

• Record your outdoor observations

• Connect with animals

• Use all of your senses to reconnect with nature

If you're inclined, see more details here.

Don't forget to wipe the seat down!

Ryan Says

Back towards the end of April, Ryan tweeted this...:

Was Ryan letting us know back in April he was working on this Bed Bath and Beyond deal? We think so.

We believe Ryan Cohen is becoming this generation's premier activist investor. That's why we created this newsletter - to help others become aware.

Spread the Word

We love Ryan Cohen and think he's the greatest Activist Investor of our generation. We are passionate followers of his moves and words and would love for others to know more about this great leader. We feel strongly that life is all about learning who to follow. If you have someone that needs more RC in their life, share Mother Squeezer with them!
