    I feel you. I bought a house in 2008, feels bad man. Today feels almost the same as back then - super high housing prices, market declining. Not a great situation. Good luck!

    At some point I have to believe I'll be back in AMC Waiting for $12 or less. Meme stock that paid off debt & has cash on hand due to the last price surge, and still waiting on a full recovery from Covid.

    Nobody knows anything. Markets could keep tanking... or not. Good time to start looking for an entry imo, especially if you are ok holding long.

    Looking at the DOW 13 down days and 6 up days in January so far It's basically been flat since last April You hear 2021 was a good year for the market, but most of the run-up occurred in the first 3 months of the year. (30K to 34K). April-December it stayed within a 2k point range. Healthy economy.

    WoT makes me extremely dubious about this series but I have hope... They even spared no expense with the title teaser and went practical effects for it.

    Overwatch

    I honestly can't believe ow league is still functioning. OW suffers so much by the way its designed. I get they are trying to balance it by restricting tanks and stuff but ugh. Even when I played the game a ton I just had no interest in watching it. I'm sure OW2 was secretly going to be...

    League Of Legends

    All of the facial expressions are so good, they gave each character a high quality closeup. Panth, Sej, Taliyah, Kai Sai, all have amazing emotions across their faces. And Leona just ignored during the ending climax wtf, she came in hot.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Ep 2 is a lot better than ep1 imo. I just hope they stop with the flashbacks. They are trying to get us to to speed on how he shows up in mandalorian and it's taking up a lot of time. All this time was spent to explain the weapon he has in mandalorian. I would like to think they backed...

    Crypto has always followed the market, it's just more volatile, and it's traded 24/7 so you don't always know the exact relationship. But during trading hours, more often than not, Crypto goes up if markets are up, and vice versa.

    Arcane

    Critics are largely ignoring it, 2 critic scores on Dec 29th, none since then, and none prior since Dec 3rd Audience is mainly watching this from word of mouth now, so most will likely enjoy it. If Arcane was a featured show by Netflix, you would see a lot more trolls imo.

    Wheel of Time

    I was disappointed after ep1, had some hope through the middle eps, then the last 2 episodes left me severely disappointed. Overall i rate it about a C. Imo the end felt too rushed. I thought the first book was going to be 2 seasons.. maybe that was people before amazon,idk. They made a lot of...

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    It was filmed November 2020 to February 2021, and scripts change a lot during the shooting process. So I wouldn't say it's all circa 2016-17. The main inspiration for the story is climate change. "Trust the science." "It's right there in front of our faces"., etc. Overall the movie is...

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    Eh, whatever. I got a Steve Jobs vibe mostly. He definitely seemed to combine a majority of the tech personalities into 1 person. His eccentricities were very Musk or Zuckerberg - I'd say more Zuckerberg tbh. The "Algorithms" are very Google / Facebook / Twitter The only Musk angle I saw was...

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    Well I thought it was anti-progressive in how it handled tech & social media. I thought it was balanced in who it poked fun at and if all you focused on was the conservative angle then that's on you. I'd say the bigger message was it shooting a giant warning about tech companies & social media...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I got my 3090 by buying a brand new PC from NZXT and it was either MSRP or a small markup. It was half the price I was seeing on Newegg / Amazon. So basically got a whole new PC for what I would have spent on just a top of the line graphics card if purchased alone.

    2022 going to be a big year for Disney imo. Assuming Covid is eased up by mid-end of year for the theme parks. And they have some big movies slated for 2022 The biggest likely being Avatar 2, but we'll see Dr Strange, Wakanda Forever, Lightyear, Thor... all titles that have had huge success...

    It was depressingly accurate of the current state of the world. Funny but also depressing. There is a final scene after the credits with Jonah that sums it up so well.

    Are we counting 6969 as a guess? My guess is only 250 points above yours. I'm obviously bullish for 2022. My reason being inflation, covid tapering/ normalizing, and possibly mid terms adding some spice to the market end of year. I mean, we can easily go the other way for all of these...

    Disney didn't acquire Avatar until they acquired Fox in 2019. I'm sure Disney will try to make Avatar another MCU & Star Wars universe type thing that never ends

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    I remember the 1st spiderman with Tobey Mcguire released and was #1 opening weekend at like 125 million back then. I saw it 4x in theater. It restarted comic movies... spiderman has been big since the beginning, they just milked it too hard and it lost a lot of its luster till Holland and the MCU.

    role / bans were in LoL for a while now What I like with Wild Rift is the actual gameplay is much quicker which means less time to commit, less time to be toxic, less time feeling you are wasting your time if you get feeders/trolls/etc And since it's mobile, people don't chat very much - even...

    You would never think it without trying it, but I ended up playing a lot more Wild RIft than I expected. It's just a better game at this point. Everything about it is a much more pleasant experience.
