    J49: An Erotic Life

    Man, I don't think I could do the story justice. No way could I retell it all and can't imagine anyone making it through without thinking I'm full of shit or he is. It's so out there that even with him sharing so much photo evidence(thanks again for sir) I find myself close to disbelief

    independent contractors, so they ahve to pay their full Social security and Medicare. ~15% instead of the ~7.5% most of get taken out of our paychecks. then, given the high income and likely zero deductibles, they're paying the highest fed income tax rate.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Harrison Ford wanted out of Star Wars. not that I think they still wouldn't have killed his character, but pretty sure he agreed to do the 1 movie on the condition his character died. Chew's character progression after that was a huge spit in the face

    Covid and people not wanting or being able to go to the theater is hurting box office numbers far more than the woke agenda. shang isn't even out yet, male lead, why is there an assumption that it's filled with woke agenda enough to hurt sales?

    there's a larger consideration of what is your mix. i'm not comfortable with 70% crypto allocation :) @Haus 's pie chart shows ~16% savings (8.2% savings + 2% liquid). i think this isn't far off for most of us. While for crypto, some would view crypto as too volatile for their taste...
