Awesome experience so far. I started a necro and while super powerful, the aids of pet stealing xp was too much and I only got him to 12. Everything was a struggle- I fucked up my faction, got murdered in qeynos, just rough. Rerolled dwarf pally and within 10 minutes I found a druid had...

I knew I was dumb and on the downward spiral of getting even dumber, but wtf is Anathem even about ? I’m around 30-40 pages in and have no clue what is happening. Just dudes asking other dudes questions so far.

Hate to admit I’ve been messing with these structured notes without completely understanding them. They’re not that complicated on the surface, but I’m not sure how the writers make money on them. Example 18 mo note paying 9% annualized interest, monthly. Callable halfway. You get paid...

Probably the first "PG 13" show my wife let my kids (7/8) watch. We enjoyed it and its also the first show all 4 of us ever watch together that isn't drastically made for one of our demographics - pretty cool.

I’m commission only and I knew my first year would be slower than future years. The market also just shit itself (2022) and my opportunity for converting a giant chunk of my IRA to Roth was real, but I pussed out. I still made around 150 household, so it wasn’t a complete no brainer, and it’s...

Finished the series finally - enjoyed it, but I’m not sure how much I missed vs how much just wasn’t finished / resolved? 1) karsa and pals 2) blend/picker/duiker crew 3) lady envy and friends 4) mother dark? Like is she back or not back, or something something? 5) death / the gate, did they...

Tried it out again and got to the first cutscene and quit. I will try and push through again next weekend.

Actors are diverse, but the aliens are all dark skinned wtf

Super slow burn and a big WHO DUN IT, but overall done well with just enough comedy relief not to take itself too seriously. Recommend, 6.345 / 10

I enjoyed season 2 and thought the tower crew carried a little more than Rand and pals. Matt and Perrin were trash again and had few scenes that were not terrible Rand, Elayne, Ishamael, Lanfear, and Nynaeve show you what decent casting looks like vs the trash cast of the rest. I’m pretty...

Thinking about super basic VR for a reskinned EQ as EQ3….casters would make sense. Pulling would be kind of intense. How the F you make melee interesting I’m not sure. You could save animations for casts on the hot bar for casting and imagine playing a chanter cycling through targets mezzing...

Nicely stated. Even guys that excel at first, and there are many, tend to regress after 1-2 years once film adds up. You need a big brain, balls of steel, a fishbowl memory regarding bad plays, leadership skills, and some other intangible- athleticism, rocket arm, pocket presence, or...

If he bones a hot Aviendha and rampages against Rahvin at some point, then all is not lost and the fires of heaven can be redeemed

ah thanks, I thought the battle in the sky fight was with a false dark one, but it’s been many years and many beers since that was read

Isn’t the original forsaken hanging with the seachan thought to be the dark one, but was some other nerdlips forsaken instead?

That is funny about ginger aels Perrin vs Moraine for % of screen time mouthbreathing would be interesting

They actually did a good job with the tower stuff compared to how bad they shit the bed with other things, like casting. Rand, Nynaeve, Elayne, and blockhead Elaida get a pass on casting and character adaptations. Matt and Min get a fail, but tolerable fail. The rest of the protagonists...

Just remember to check yield to worst for bonds to make sure you’re not buying @ a premium. Also, bbb companies are paying more but they’re filled with poo, but the next tier, single A, has enough respectable options to check out for 5.7-6.2 range 12-18 mos

They’re trying to stretch it into a game of thrones but forgot the part where you make people like it

Closest I got to D&D was EverQuest. Totally loved the movie and wish it made more money, but lazy people like me that waited are the reason so I can’t complain. Felt like a guardians of the galaxy fantasy and I support it.

I say invest most / pay extra for a combination of correct decision and feels good decision. That way you can’t regert much and end up with a win either way.

We ended up switching to having the woman work part time, 9 to 2:30. Happy middle ground where she can make a few bucks and we won’t feel like we’re balls to the wall all the time.

Careful, possibly an energy vampire

I went against traditional buy and hold for a 40 year old and sold all of my qualified money and let it sit in fdrxx as of about 2 weeks ago. In my NQ account I only sold 1/2 of my palantir bc the rest of the lots were short term. Kept all of my indexes basically around 450 still in and 400...

Exactly most don’t, but in a perfect world she could find a WFH type deal like some of my shitlord neighbors and we could ride off into the sunset getting the best of both worlds.

She’s never not worked, and we talked about this idea of how nice it would be if she became the manager of our house - like all out assisting me with stuff and doing everything, but only if I made enough. All of a sudden I’m making enough, but she has the good insurance so I’d prefer a work...

Hey sorry kind of wrong thread kind of right thread, but any of you experience a wife / mom going from full time to stay at home to run the house? we have 2 kids and I’m starting to make some cheese, but it would definitely put a little more stress on me to deliver. Financially now, we’re in a...

Plea deal to misdemeanor I believe. money talks

Smart formula that they had for the mass appeal with the whole animal cruelty thing. there’s some kind of bullshit stat im maybe making up that reads people are so desensitized to human death in movies at this point, but animal death triggers way more emotion. Movie was fine, but missed...

I think it’s better to get 4-4.5 with a bank you’re already set up with and feel comfortable with vs shopping for temporary rate winners. Just take the excess and throw it in the fidelity money market or whoever and you don’t end up @ uncle earls awesome bank

My wife was on a date and the music was flowing hard, but her dude was standing cross armed and I could see she wanted to dance. I was on a week’s supply of roids from a minor car accident and felt unstoppable. Asked her to dance and the dweeb was like, sure go ahead. We danced and I got...

Just got to book 10, first read through. I’ll try to summarize the strengths and weaknesses of Erickson I am feeling having freshly gone through this thing. Character building and world building are top notch. tone is good, not great. I’d say the whole series feels desperate. Everyone...

If I recall, Muab Dib did in fact have the ability to mind fuck Feyd so hard that his head would explode. He chose to beat Feyd in Feyds peak arena, a 1v1 duel, but then also explode him at the end to flex his mental. Like, look at me and underestimate me, and you will all suffer the same...

That’s kind of what I aim to do at work. Sadly, even when you’re right about a sector you have the same problems you always do, mostly regarding timing the exits / entry. Like right now, say you exit your 20% tech to the tune of dropping to 10%. You shift that 10% to energy expecting summer...

No, just regular stonks trading. Sadly, I think its par for the course in the industry once you get to a certain level of overlords. Also, you hear and assume lots of nightmare scenarios once you get bought out and while lots of them have been true, and shitty, they mostly leave us alone...

The Deep will nobly sacrifice himself and drag Homelander down to Mariana's Trench with the help of 1,000,000 gay starfish.

Yeah, but we were just a little 5 man firm with a staff of like 15. When rates were low and money was cheap, like 1-2 years ago, the small to midsize national firms started a buyout frenzy and our owner bit the bullet and took the money. Thankfully we’re located a few states away and can...

I can somehow see there is no current viable carrot on stick endgame and still say I’ve enjoyed the game and will make a second class at some point. They made the game for casuals and maybe underestimated the power of dads and single people, but not by a mile. My neighborhood bros are ex wow...

My little firm got acquired and my shitty new overlords are making me get consent to trade my personal account, like I can front run my baby dick less than 1 million dollar account to any meaningful degree. They say I don’t have to pre clear ETF trades, so I’m either going to have to go all...

Like I said he’s got engineer brain at least on the outside, talking about all the tasks he has to do etc, but you can tell he’s lost emotionally. You reminded me to reach out and check on him, he’s a good dude, but didn’t socialize much bc we were such degenerates.
