Yeah to be fair I love a lot of movies he’s in and reading about this makes me so disappointed. I’m sure there’s other actors and celebrities that I would also be disappointed about too.

I buy a game maybe once a year in physical form. My next game will probably be FFVII Part 3. We’ll see how it goes as this stage in my life I have few franchises that I’d consider paying full price for. If its a digital only game, enter #patientgamer

I got that reference!

Man I just out two and two together. FlyingSquid was probably referencing how no one died in the “raid” and seathru was probably referencing how a bunch of spies and other sensitive personnel mysteriously disappeared or were killed after Trump had that meeting with Putin and then asked for….spies and sensitive personnel info shortly thereafter.

Yeah our CIO started talking bringing cubes back. My manager, his manner and our director are pretty opposed to this. We do well remote and there are things we literally couldn’t do in the office. We’re in once a week-ish if it works out and if this forced our director would have to move back from multiple states over…. I don’t think they’ll make that move back if pressed and one co-worker expressed “fire me” sentiment if it comes.

I love the idea of a Steam Deck or the other portable pcs like it, but man I think it would just sit lol. The techie in me just wants it to have. Same with a VR headset. I’d play beatsaber for a bit and it would be dusty.

I still have a Steam Link, does that count? Lol

And here I thought it was referencing my car.

Oh so does mine. It wants me to have like $450k in there by 45. I have $15k. Only like 125% of my pay for the next 5 years to make it! Forget the bills or eating. RIP

40 and I’m not worried. I know.

Binged, thoroughly enjoyed and now await season2

Youtube vs Ublock lets goooooooo

Thought i read somewhere that BYD or another manufacturer was looking to build manufacturing in Mexico to take advantage of the NAFTA agreement…. If that’s the case then it’s a question of them meeting US standards. I just remember the hilariously bad crash tests where that cars were the crumple zones.

Yeah my employer luckily pays most of the premiums. If I lost my job and “had” to get COBRA, then what I’d have to pay would jump drastically to keep my employer based coverage or I could look at whats on the marketplace/exchange which would likely cover bare minimums, if it was even worth it at all.

It’d be worth considering dropping insurance altogether at that point as I would not have that kind of cash to continue insurance plan I’ve had.

I would rather pay higher taxes out of my paycheck if it meant EVERYONE could get healthcare, regardless if they had a job or were “legal”. Everyone’s gonna need it someday, no exceptions.

I try to vote for the candidates that have as close of values as I do, but realize not everyone running will be a 100% match.

Right, and the way things are going with “states rights” it sounds like the GOP are already going for family planning and birth control with Alabama’s Supreme Court ruling that fertilized embryos are “people”.

I pay about $220 every two weeks for my HSA “High Deductible” Plan. Twisted my ankle pretty bad last November and after a visit to the urgent care, 3 visits to a podiatrist including 2 x-rays, and the.a boot and a support wrap that were purchased with the HSA, my funds in it are now depleted and put my $600 bill on a payment plan. My wife had some extra dental visits that resulted in a root canal that wiped most of it.

I have no idea how we’re gonna pay if we have something else come up.

I make 2x the median income in my area. But between the bills, $600(!) credit card payment, student loans from 10 years ago that just don’t want to go away, I feel I’d have to find some way to add another multiplier to my income. And that’s not including worrying about my 16yo car or my wife’s 10yo one. Was hoping my promotion last year would have gave me enough leeway to replace mine, but too much debt.

Got me there!

Man I’m programmed to just ctrl+r and type cmd lol

Yeah certain movements feel “tight” and a bit uncomfortable to do. Figured it’d be a bit longer until i felt normal again.

I did this in November over a weekend blowing leaves and stepped off an elevated piece of my driveway (due to tree roots). Heard a snap crackle pop and couldn’t walk on it. That Monday i went to urgent care and they x-rayed me, saw a potential fracture and put me in a boot. Went to a podiatrist a few days later and said i tore some ligaments, no fracture thankfully. A month on the boot with icing, then another month using a support wrap since i just wear slip ons (unless especially wintery out) with anti-inflammatory meds and I’m now free, though still feel not exactly 100% but seems to be getting better.
