Fucked up a lot of things, but man did we time the interest rates well. Got in just before they started shooting up (Oct 2021).

He's not entirely wrong. And I'd even go further and say it's not until about $500k where you start noticing your money making money. It's just a slog getting there. But absolutely money begets more money. It's one of those things that everyone just kind of understands, that there are more...

Isn't Satisfactory that?

Same, although I'm like 8b short. Haven't really been playing much in the last couple months. I'll probably say fuck it and try to tap my Godr to TRI, and then use the hammers on TET. Not ideal, but I don't play enough to min/max this shit.

Yep, it's a repeat of the 70's. "Inflation is going down" so they'll ease up and start dropping rates by the end of the year. Inflation will come roaring back in another year or two even worse than it was. Repeat 3 or 4 times until you get a Volcker.

Here you go. It's all energy and used cars. Everything else is still way up. Basically, the 3% is a bullshit number so the media can report on it. Fed hasn't tackled shit yet.

Yeah, Last of Us is pretty forgettable in retrospect. I much more enjoyed Yellowjackets (only halfway through season two though...and also no idea why Melanie Lynsky gets all the kudos, she seems middling to me compared to Christina Ricci, and really all the younger actresses), The Bear (my...

I dunno, Magnus is pretty massive. Not for the fast travel, but that storage thing was a game changer.

Better question would be why now? Twenty years ago, sure, I get someone making it. Who is this for?

I feel like people knew about the last one everywhere. But maybe that was a different time. TV and movies aren't what they were a decade ago.

This. It's not quirky, it's jarring. And Timothee Chalamet seems like a miscast.

Wonder if that means that stocks 8 through ? will get a massive boost as the index money rebalances?

Wrapped it up. I think the second season surpassed the first pretty successfully. I noticed in this season the soundtrack was really damn good, too. The standout there being, at least for me, The Day the World Went Away orchestral version (or whatever you'd call it). As far as episodes go, I...

Yeah, I'd never ever invest money in fake meat. Get the fuck out of here with that cancer shit.

Because it's a QAnon MAGA propaganda something something.

That's a surprise. Seems like a good omen, too. Basically saying that it's the boomer dropping out of the workforce post-covid that's driving it.

Finally got around to watching up through the Christmas episode. Still can't decide if I want to binge the rest. I kind of do. Anyway, my first thought is, I feel like Sydney is a fucking terrible chef. I'm not an amazing cook or anything, but I've never made something and it been so bad that I...

That seems like a retarded decision.

Watching the first episode and this seems like the product of more shitty writers. It's a lot of ridiculous conveniences. Like why would he text his wife all that gibberish instead of saying the plane has been hijacked? Why wouldn't the pilots mention the guns to ATC? Why wouldn't they divert...

Crazy, my wife's childhood neighbor and her family live in Long Grove (since at least like 2007, probably longer). Don't remember hearing about that.

Center is the costume one I think? Never done it. The two in the corners are Garmoth (or one if you do the other hearts).

Yeah, the skill book versus loot thing is huge. Like in my playthrough I was doing sledge. I got a tier 6 steel sledge from a quest reward when I think I was still on iron or maybe tier 1-2 steel craftable. What's the point in me continuing to find books at that point? I basically got the...

So many shows seem to do that thing where they keep trying to get the audience to love a character and everyone hates them. I don't know what their hard on is for Ellis, but he fucking sucks.

Wife and I were huge fans of it the first season. I think we got to episode 5 or 6 of season 3 and just can't make ourselves finish it. The last one we were watching I guess we assumed these were 30 minutes. We were both getting super antsy and just wanted the fucking thing to be over. Every...

So I kicked around on A21 a bit, and then a little for a day or two after stable. I decided to try something else in the event I can convince my friends to give this one another go (think we've played it two or three times over the years, usually fizzling out around the 3rd or 4th horde night...

Got a 150 already. Think it was a code?

Was going to say the same. EQ really ruined my formative years. Yeah, everything turned out fine and I'm happy with where I'm at, but I shouldn't have spent high school playing video games. And same with me and DOTA. I haven't played it in forever. Heck, I never really played it much cause I...

Inertia maybe? Lots of money has been sitting on the sidelines, and with things running up, no one wants to miss the boat. Also see my post a week or two ago about all the boomers who probably sold over the last 1-2 years. They're probably seeing now as a good time to get back in (despite the...

I'd argue we already had the recession, just none of the government's cooked metrics reflected it. Heck, the textbook one of GDP they decided deserved a new definition and made it no longer a recession. That said, I honestly expected us to dip much lower than we did earlier in the year. But I...

Dang, markets broke higher pretty strong today. Will definitely make my quarterly account balance look good if there's no profit taking later today.

So we kept that dog for a few weeks, but he really never adjusted. We had the breeder over to visit a couple times and his attitude was just a complete 180 when she was around. We offered to do short term fostering of him to work on socializing and training him until he got adopted, but she...

No, Fran Drescher was raped. My guess is watching it happen probably fucked him up and he lost the taste for pussy out of guilt. "I can't do that to a woman!"

Sounds like the rape was in the 80's. And it also sounds like that trauma made him gay. No journalist will ever make that connection though.

Good. Cut their own throats. Media is on the downtrend, and now they're going to make sure it gets beaten to a pulp.

11 in two weeks, 7 of those at Panama City. It's definitely a bad year for rips. Although I basically avoid the beach from May through August.

He drowned in Destin today.

Holy shit, what an asshole. And what a fucking joke the military has become. I saw less overreaction to people being shit faced in a warzone (ignoring the celebration).

The entire Silo is hunting you down and trying to kill you, but you take the time to watch the entire love video your dead boyfriend sent you, completely oblivious to everything else (twice!). And the other files that, you know, they're trying to kill you for and would give you answers? Well...

I know I like to shit on Hollywood for not coming up with anything worthwhile, but this is definitely a standout show. Only watched the first episode, but it seems to be about the same quality. It's setting up with the obvious conflict being the money thing...again. Not sure if I want to burn...
