    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Your sister's experience is probably the exception, not the rule. Based on your info she started having kids later in life and she was already established in a career and had valuable experience, in a field that doesn't change much over time (for instance, try doing this in any technology driven...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Tax man doesn't just automatically take 35-45% off the top. If he's taking that much from a couple that's married filing jointly they are in the top ~5-10% household income earners for the entire country. It's actually very clear cut if it's just a mathematical problem for you on which course of...

    The Netflix Thread

    Out of that trailer 2 things stuck out to me. 1) Enola Holmes 2. The first one was surprisingly good 2) The Adam Project. I don't know exactly why. But I got a sort of Flight of the Navigator vibe from the few scenes they showed, without the extra terrestrials.

    Netflix movies are still mostly bad but they've gotten better. So maybe 5 or 6 of them will be good.

    So I actually had a conversation with friends today who just hired an au pair. $250/week plus food. So probably 18k/yr? In CT.

    That wasn't me. Unless you're calling me a bush stalker. But that's not me either. I'm more of a bush hunter. If you know what I mean.

    I'm not interested in having that conversation yet again here. I'm happy to talk about relationships in general, and then giving some personal experience as examples of what shapes my opinions on that topic.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well it was really just more of an example of the ball of wax that dating can become. People are dishonest with themselves, and then dishonest with the people they are in a relationship with, even as they get older and should be more mature. Even when it comes to major, life altering decisions...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I doubt I'd ever get married without a pre-nup which can and often does cause all kinds of other emotional turmoil in a relationship. But what still gives me pause, even with pre-nups, is from what I've read the "unforeseen circumstances" provisions can be interpreted in wide degrees. And major...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I think for most people it's probably just a series of compounding problems. It's easy to get stuck in an unbreakable loop of confirmation bias and logical fallacies in regards to dating. Instead of using past experiences as building blocks you latch on to mannerisms you may have seen in a...

    The Northman (2022)

    Wait, Shakespeare... one of those most renowned literary figures of all time... just stole a name directly from another story and merely moved the H from the end of the name to the beginning and that's it?

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I feel like dating is a bell curve of misery. In your 20s you're young and excited. The future is bright. You haven't been jaded or damaged by bad/failed relationships. In your 30s you start to become disenchanted with dating and discouraged that things aren't working out the way you thought...

    Ahh, wealthysinglemommy.com bud, that article is really fucking weird. Did you even read it? Case in point. EDIT: I mean shit, she's talking about kids as if you introduce people to them with adult stipulations they'll just fucking understand. Holy fuck dude... that article. Fucking wow.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I don't understand how that shouldn't be the first thought. Why on earth would anyone just bring a young child into a new dating scenario like that? Relationships are hard enough for adults. Why put a kid through it with you?

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I'm sorry Jackie but her bringing her child to meet you, especially under those circumstances, is not a good sign. And her continuing to do so before she even really knows you is really not a good sign. This has nothing to do with you, and I'm not saying you're some kind of weirdo who shouldn't...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I hope that's not a joke. You have kids right? Introducing your child to people your dating has a profound effect on a young kid. Any parent that does that before they know its serious and the person they are dating is serious about taking that challenge on is damaging the child. Attachment is...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I hope she didn't already introduce you to the kid. Most of the people here just say shit for the sake of it but if she actually introduced you to her kid before she slept with you just fucking run because it's definitely a trap. And that's not even a joke.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I post these guys from time to time but just can't get enough of them. It's spoof music done well. There are a ton of 80s sounds now from synthwave to whatever else but these guys are from Australia and as such harness much more from INXS and the like. It's not serious but it's seriously catchy.

    A true cautionary tale. Thank you for being so brave and coming forward. There you have it Jackie. Do you really want to be shacked up with some broad with that many problems for the next 10 years minimum?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They've created their own mess. The game isnt fun to play through with all their time gates and artificial content blocks, so people bypass it by paying for boosts after the fact. They cant kill boosts entirely because even more players would quit. But in all their hubris, instead of fixing...

    I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson

    A lot of sketch comedy shows rely too much on awkward situations. To the point they forget to actually make it funny. This is one of those shows. Good sketch comedy tends to use relatable awkward situations that people actually experience and turns it into something we can all laugh at, cuz we...

    Yea, latest AoT episode was a good example of story telling done well. A reveal that isnt overly complex or convoluted. Simple and effective.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    He's a fair amount smarter than his Asmongold persona. Plus, I think we'd all be surprised just how much money he has made over the last few years. Even just leaving it in a shitty savings account is likely enough to keep him going indefinitely. Hes never upgraded his lifestyle, ever. Which is...

    Asmon likely won't ever go broke simply because he just doesn't spend money on... anything. Well, maybe he'll go broke from needing new teeth every 2 years.
