i assume derka has been banned or will be banned now? I really don’t follow the threads where any of this shit goes down so I don’t have a good sense of it, but either way - best of luck dude. I’ll always remember being new and thinking you were the black guy in your rap video.

8 hours ago, Muny_Tex said:Blake,
I've been an observer of the Longhorn internets since approx 2001; and was very a active reader of Shaggy from Day 1. You are one of my favorite contributors during that entire time frame. Even back when you were a "different person", I still always looked forward to seeing your hoops takes and thought it was really bizarre how many people (such as the "Hi" crowd) felt compelled to have real-life personal beef with you.
Fast forward to now and very little seems to have changed; so my advice is this: Please permanently leave this website and find a different/healthier outlet for expressing your interest in sports and engaging with other fans. Many of the largest influencers here do not have your best interests at heart (and that's putting it gently), and they never will.
I fully believe that anyone who devotes any substantial amount of attention/energy to an internet message board (and by the same token, mainstream social media) is fundamentally a loser. Time and resources are finite, and youth/vigor/opportunity costs are tremendously precious. The fact that there are many people here with tens of thousands of posts (translate those into conscious hours!) dropped into little more than an abyss of uselessness (95% of the time) or a vortex of hatred, division, and personal attacks (at worst) speaks immense volumes about their character as adults, parents, spouses, etc etc.
There is a reason so many posters fit similar archetypes of ultra-high incomes and professional classes...they are the same people (especially the lawyers) who everyone else on the globe typically despises for the way they live their lives and treat others. It is only natural that they translate their self-loathing into attempts to cope/compensate through sanctimony, condescension, frequently outright abuse towards others while safely protected behind their screens.
I aim to browse the board approx ~30 mins a week now to aggregate Astros news and pertinent insights relating to markets/finances. Fortunately that's because I (finally) have other important, meaningful, real-world human priority shit to do which was never that case when I spent hours and hours a day here (and not coincidentally, was objectively a loser during those same life stages).
I don't know your whole story, but I perceive an enormous amount of victimhood from you during this most recent episode without appropriate regard for the greater context: This place will never be uplifting for you, it will never be a source of joy/pride/confidence/health whatever. It is a fundamentally ugly place populated overwhelmingly by fundamentally ugly people.
There are certainly useful things you can "learn" here (like the 'Help' board) just as you would browsing google/reddit for specific topics of interest; but actually engaging anyone here and expecting anything different than the exact-same toxic pattern over the past 10+ years for you is horribly misguided. In the parlance of Tommy Boy, you are the woman in white gloves horribly upset by the mess made by ketchup popsicles that you insist on ordering over and over again.
Put this hellscape away. Take control of your own life and your own recovery. Bob, imaamac, motown, etc etc should not and cannot be the gatekeepers to your health, happiness, and well-being. May God bless you, and I hope to see you reach your full potential somewhere that is worthwhile.
Well I had sex with your wife.

Actually I guess that’s relevant - I’m stupid about tax stuff, this is in a Roth though. I could sell it and buy different things with it in the Roth and not have any tax implications right?

talk to me about ditching long held single stocks that have grown to a state where they are intolerably risky
i mean really this is probably not a stock question as much as a psychology thing about attachment and loss aversion, but I dunno. I invested a fairly smallish amount in a single company early in my career and... reviewing my portfolio again the other day made me realize how much it has grown and how it represents wayyy too much of my overall wealth for a single stock. but i don't really want to sell it because that's my boy, we've been through so much.
any of y'all been burned? this doesn't feel like a stonks question since i've held it for 16 years

this is all really very simple: you either trust bob’s judgment or you trust immamac’s.
mental health stuff, above my pay grade, etc, but man for me life is a lot easier when I'm able to do a good job of setting aside things i have no control over and putting my energy into things I can change

But to me the thing about music is that when you bring the right pieces together 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 > 4. For the Beatles 1+1+1+1=~27.the Pixies are like this but it's .3+.5+.1+.1 = 6

Is this the thread where we've talked about Old 97s a bit?
On first listen I like this one more than the first single from the new album. More old school classic rocking 97s as opposed to a Rhett song.
The Old 97s are an all time favorite band of mine and I feel like i always complain about them when they come up. Today I'm going to complain about how dumb their artwork has been on every record since Fight Songs. I know they're past the GAF stage and maybe I missed my calling as an asshole A&R guy (and probably they got fucked up by asshole A&R guys earlier in their career) but goddamn have a little bit of consistency and then choose art that matches your vibe. Did Rhett's wife paint this?

Anyone with a CFP or at a minimum series 7/66 licensed interested in a job PM me. I’m looking to hire in the near future. Rather start here than on the World Wide Web.
You may have misheard - you're probably looking for a fiduciary.
