    Feel like we haven't had one of these in a long time. Any clue why? Did I miss a Monday Fed meeting or something?

    It's not even the first time Disney has recast someone in Marvel. Not sure why anyone cares.

    Why limit yourself to 5% per day? And $30? Think bigger. Why not $10,000 and 7% per day?

    All you have to do is have $30 and get a measly 5% per trading day? Where do I sign up? And why is she so simple minded not to scrounge up more than $30 for this scam?

    Party Down

    Really disappointed this was only six episodes. Felt like it was finally regaining its footing only for it to be over. I'm hopeful that the cameo in the credit sequence means we get more. I imagine all the people involved enjoy it since they went through the trouble of getting it started up...

    Trillions in new money printed over the last three years. What, you think the welfare class got most of that? And corporations can only do so much stock buybacks. They're probably shoving it in banks because what the fuck else do you do with it?

    Unstable

    I generally completely dismiss Netflix shows, but I like Rob Lowe. This one is him and his son playing a father and son. At first I was a bit put off because it's one of those shows that just bombards you with witty dialogues and comebacks. I was trying to come up with something to compare that...

    The Documentary Thread

    Considering he's the lead actor in the top two of my top five favorite movies (BTTF and BTTF2), I'll watch. I always liked Doc Hollywood and Secret of My Success, too. Watched Family Ties growing up, but was really too young for it. So yeah, I'm in. I'll definitely check it out.

    I'm not @Sanrith Descartes old, so I don't remember super high rates, but I do remember 20 years ago when you could get 5-6% all over the place.

    We just can't sustain a decent rally. We retake 4000 and then lose it every few weeks now. Was really hoping at some point we could regain that August 2022 level. Not even asking for new ATH's yet.

    A Man Called Otto (2022)

    Started watching this. Random scene that literally has fuck all to do with the movie to insert a tranny. I wish I was kidding. This gets 0 stars. Fuck you, Hollywood.

    Man, that's shitty. We left Southern Illinois this morning (back to Florida) to try to stay ahead of this thing. Think they were saying it'd get bad starting about 90 min ago until about 11pm.

    Don't know why anyone cares. The reality at this point is that the Marvel franchise is dead. They'll keep dumping money at it, but it's trash tier content.

    Maybe now is the time I finally sell all my pre-1965 quarters. Don't remember how many I have, but it was about $700 worth a few years ago.

    Because just like how inflation didn't immediately start when they started printing money, it'll take time to fall once they stop. Consider that the ridiculous amount of printing (not the QE that started in 2008) happened in 2020, and we didn't get hit hardest by inflation until two years...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    And at this point, most of us have been through this rodeo a few times and know that those things never end up fixed at release; instead, everyone just forgets that they said it was an old build. 6 months after release they finally address it after 80% of the playerbase finally moves on.

    Doesn't that just mean you get to enjoy the voice acting a second time?

    Last Epoch

    You should probably just say fuck it and consider paying double the price of this one. Diablo 4 has much better voice acting.

    I don't get this line of reasoning. We spent way more money on all kinds of technology 20-30 years ago.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    That's probably why I'm reluctant to ever spend that much on a game again. Had a ton of fun and hours in the last CoD with Warzone. Figured I'd buy the new one and...it fucking sucked. I think we played it for two nights before everyone decided we hated it. $70 plus a $10 season pass down the...

    Yeah, but I can play Last Epoch for half that price. What the fuck does this game do that warrants the price tag?

    Party Down

    Shrooms episode was fucking hilarious. Might be one of the best. I also realized right when I started watching it (not sure why) why Nick Offerman was in this, when I remembered that he's married to Megan Mullally. Even though she's not really in this season much.

    Pretty sure I got like half a dozen emails telling me to do my account or it'd be deleted. I wasn't playing at the time, I don't think, but went ahead and did it.

    So what's the longest time it has ever taken to pull out of a sideways market? I feel like we're at double whatever that number was, at a minimum.

    Yeah, there are tons of characters. And a lot suck dick. Which is why they weren't popular as comics. The successful ones are successful for a reason.

    I don't want to shit on the posters in here, but quite a few were talking about how the SVB thing was a one off and wouldn't spread to the rest of the banking industry.
