Still experimenting, and I found some stuff about how it may not be the missing enzyme, but rather just super fast metabolism (which I have). Apparently taking an antacid first can help slow down your stomach acid from breaking down the gummy (sublingual hasn't seemed to help). Sure enough...

This is why the FIRE community really emphasizes the FI part more than the RE part. Yeah, retirement sounds like the goal, but financial independence means you're no longer beholden to a job. That's the important part. If you love your job, it means you have more flexibility to negotiate for...

I mean, we're still two months away. At what point is the cutoff from "too close to Christmas?" Are companies and not allowed to do layoffs through July? Plus, it's Amazon, so most of those people probably don't even celebrate Christmas or have families for that matter.

There's an alpha (formerly friends and family) server that runs all the time, except when there's an open test ongoing.

Jesus, I'm so high and had to read this like twenty times.

It's definitely a massive leap. And there are phases of it, especially starting out. It'll feel weird knowing everyone else is going to work and you're going to wonder what to do with yourself. Eventually you start adjusting after a year or so. I'm 4 years in (this week) and I can't even...

If I were Cad levels of rich I wouldn't pay attention. But I'm not quite at the level where the market movement doesn't matter at all. Maybe if the wife and I get an inheritance my opinion will change.

This market is so retarded. All I see is people attributing today's new high to Trump maybe making a deal with China. Except it only fell by about a percent when they were going at it (last weekend?) and recovered almost immediately. So now a new high because... we're returning to the status...

Fucking casual. You're meant to sit there spamming trade channels for 14 hours a day. That's how people in EQ did, and that's the most perfect video game of all time.

I really wanted to avoid smoking, but I think I'll likely end up having to. Yesterday was actually a good example of when I would've preferred it. Had back pain in the morning, but something in the early evening where I needed to drive. So I just took the day off (since I have no idea how long...

Surely the tolerance takes months to build up though, and not 4 days?

I'm still experimenting, but it's looking like I might be one of those abnormally high enzyme people. First 5mg dose from my drum teacher gave me some back pain relief. Second 5mg didn't do anything whatsoever. Got my card after that. So far I've done 4 5mg doses (both were a 5mg, waiting...

Yeah, I didn't think it was terrible. Luckily it wasn't too long, although I do feel like they could've cut another 20 minutes. But that said, the ending wasn't good. The Major seemed like a fucking cartoon character. I didn't realize it was Hamill, but he blew ass in that role. What the fuck...

I mean, yes it's absolutely concerning, but we can't really do anything about it. If the debt bomb really comes, having some gold won't do shit for you anyway. At that point we're looking at global economic meltdown and you can't eat your gold. Good luck trading for anything with your fucking...

I use a normal office chair (Steelcase). I hadn't even considered being so lazy as to game on a PC sitting on a couch.

Awesome. I saw it in the theater sometime in the 2010's, and as it's my favorite movie, it was an absolute blast seeing it on a big screen. Not sure I care enough for the IMAX experience, but maybe.

Well that whole process was retarded. I had made the appointment online, but apparently their system puts everything in eastern time, so I was late. But it didn't matter one bit because there wasn't anyone else there when I arrived. The doctor didn't ask me a single question about anything. In...

Did a lot of looking around, and think I'll end up just trying an assortment of different kinds to see how I react to them. Plus it'll make good use of some of these first time discounts. Going to try some 1:1, rosin (if I can find them, these seem more rare around here), RSO, and regular...

On the one hand, sure. On the other, the idea that this is impossible to accomplish in less than 2-3 generations is crazy to me. Because we somehow were perfectly capable of building that infrastructure and finding labor abroad to do it. It's can't be both too complicated to train a new...

I don't remember who keeps saying it, but it's debasement of the USD. That's all this runup is, the dollar losing value. You'll come out ahead by being in the market, but it should also be a massive red flag for all of us because this isn't sustainable for normal people. They'll eventually hit...

I took the other half of the one I was given a couple hours ago. I don't know if they were 10mg or 5mg. This one isn't even providing me a ton of pain relief (although I also probably bit off a bigger "half" the first time). Not even remotely anything you'd call a high. But yeah, I figure...

Damn, those vapes are fucking expensive. Think I'll just take the above advice and stick to edibles. If I'm looking for a good time and not just for pain, I'll take a higher dosage. Thanks, bros!

My concern with vaping is I guess more about the vape themselves, not the bud. Seems like they're just a hastily adopted new thing that seems dicey. I dunno, could just be me buying into the news stories that cropped up right before covid. I'm actually in Gulf Breeze, but there are no docs here...

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm going to look into getting a card this week. I hadn't messed with this shit since high school, and that was only a handful of times when I was hanging out with stoner friends. But I was in the military immediately out of high school, and then held a clearance job my...

Thought it was time for a Halloween episode. Damnit.

We didn't play any of the other tests, but yeah, we definitely thought they hurt themselves by limiting what you can build so much. You basically get dozens of different materials and can't do shit with any of them because it's all locked out behind the full game. So it's an extraction shooter...

I'm sure after a couple days I'd get the hang of it, but I have no clue what all these items are.

I tried watching ITYSL a long time ago and it just didn't click with me. This resonated with me a ton though. Really enjoyed it. It was quite relatable.

What, you mean you don't think peak gaming is finding exploits in poorly designed content and then mocking other people who didn't think of it first? When did this board becomes a bunch of fucking casuals?

I mean, she was 79. Is this some sort of big story?

Maybe the game just isn't for you!

In a season where nothing seems to actually happen? It fell way, way below expectations, even for this terrible season. A season where their superhero marksman doesn't once use his super power, a multiverse plotline amounts to nothing, and the main draw of the first season which was humor is...

BL3 was such a piece of shit that I'm not falling for it again, despite what anyone may say about how good this one is.

That season of The Island was fucking amazing, and should be mandatory viewing in high schools. It's worse than that clip makes it look. The men were seriously thriving, and then the producers were like "fuck, this looks bad...we need to send some of the men over to help the women" and ruined...

I put off watching the finale because everyone said it was so shit. My god they really saved the most boring episode for last, huh? Like, what the fuck even was that? I also get that they're trying to tie this into some whole DC universe thing, but they probably shouldn't assume I know who or...

It's very, very short on laughs. You'd be better served watching a 10 minute "Best of" clip on YouTube. But it was interesting hearing all the people who knew him forever talk about him. It's more biopic than celebration of.

Man, this one was a really fucking depressing movie. Not the least of which is helped that they start it with his funeral and eulogy (by Aykroyd, and then the movie ends with O'Hara's eulogy), but then constantly has this fucking reverse countdown to 1994 for his death. In case you didn't...

Hollywood jerking off to themselves. Marvel is so directionless it's amazing. You keep wondering how they'll top their last big disaster and they always surprise.
