Bought Battlefield 2042 for $3 off of Steam.
5 minutes into the game and I all I can think is WTF is this shit.
Still fun though, but the next Battlefield better be something closer to BF3 or BF4.

People who wear over the ear noise canceling earphones when they’re out walking on the street / on a trail.
There are people on bikes and some coyotes at the regional park. You’d think they want to hear what’s going on around them.

I think… maybe this?

There's a guy on here buying a 2/1 condo for his kid. Not the worst idea I've ever heard. And then sell or keep renting after 4-5 years
That was / is my plan if RE prices aren’t too too crazy around where my daughter goes to college.
Our house will be paid off before she goes to college so the $2500/mo will go towards a condo.
A 2 BR so she can get a roommate to help pay the mortgage.

You can use Google sheets which pulls in real time stock quote. That way you don't have to manually type them in.

Painters will move furniture around.
Forgot I also painted most of the inside of the house along with the renovation, and the HOA made me paint the exterior. We've probably put $200K into this house in the past 10 years.

¡Snek! on a MFing plane
https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/snake-plane-delays-flight-australia-123398058
QuoteSnake on a plane delays a flight in Australia
MELBOURNE, Australia -- An Australian domestic flight was delayed for two hours after a stowaway snake was found in the plane’s cargo hold, officials said on Wednesday.
The snake was found on Tuesday as passengers were boarding Virgin Australia Flight VA337 at Melbourne Airport bound for Brisbane, according to snake catcher Mark Pelley. The snake turned out to be a harmless 60-centimeter (2-foot) green tree snake. But Pelly said he thought it could be venomous when he approached it in the darkened hold.
“It wasn’t until after I caught the snake that I realized that it wasn’t venomous. Until that point, it looked very dangerous to me,” Pelley said.
Most of the world’s most venomous snakes are native to Australia.
When Pelley entered the cargo hold, the snake was half hidden behind a panel and could have disappeared deeper into the plane. Pelley said he told an aircraft engineer and airline staff that they would have to evacuate the aircraft if the snake disappeared inside the plane.
“I said to them if I don’t get this in one shot, it’s going to sneak through the panels and you’re going to have to evacuate the plane because at that stage I did not know what kind of snake it was,” Pelley said.
“But thankfully, I got it on the first try and captured it,” Pelley added. “If I didn’t get it that first time, the engineers and I would be pulling apart a (Boeing) 737 looking for a snake still right now.”
Pelley said he had taken 30 minutes to drive to the airport and was then delayed by security before he could reach the airliner.
An airline official said the flight was delayed around two hours.
Because the snake is native to the Brisbane region, Pelley suspects it came aboard inside a passenger’s luggage and escaped during the two-hour flight from Brisbane to Melbourne. For quarantine reasons, the snake can’t be returned to the wild. The snake, which is a protected species, has been given to a Melbourne veterinarian to find a home with a licensed snake keeper.

I spent part of my childhood in South Africa during the 80s when racism was still an institutional thing. My sister and I attended an otherwise all-white school. Towards the end of the school year, we had substitute teacher was trying to control the classroom, and for whatever reason called me a chinaman.
I stared her down, pointed a finger at her face, and told her in a calm voice that she better not ever call me, or anyone else, that ever again.
The classroom went quiet. She started crying and left the classroom.
Being discriminated against (even when I was amongst "my people" in middle school) sucked. The 2 other memorable moments were when a drunk guy started cussing at me and telling me to "go back where you're from" when I was riding a bus in Germany; and a redneck college kid spat at me my freshman year at Texas.

My financial goal for 2025 was to hit $4M in liquid assets. If the market stays static from here until the end of the year, we should be cruising past that number by the early fall.
Looking towards the end of 2025:
- Increase my 401K contribution % to absolutely, positively make sure I reach the $31K. I probably don't need to, but getting there faster never hurts.
- Stop renovating the damn house. In the past 4 years, we've redone the kitchen, replaced the windows, and renovated the upstairs baths. Everything looks great, but it'll be great to stop writing checks as well.
- I need to set up auto transfers from savings to my brokerage account so it doesn't just sit there in cash. After our bonuses last month, we have a pile that's being lazy and needs be put to work.
The plan is still to keep working until my boy finishes college. With any luck, we should be in the 8-digit range by then.

1. Done in first 60 days this year. Now doing minimum to get employers match.
2. Just need a bit more than one point to hit 6% this year. Pushed out a lot of interest money to next year for lower tax rates.
3. About 15k away so looking to increase the amount.
4. Still on target to retire in my 50’s at the end of this year.That's great! A few questions for you.
1. When you say max out your 401K, do you mean putting in $31K (including the catchup?)
3. What are you doing with the $75K that you're saving? What kind of investment are you putting it into? Or stuffing it in a coffee can?
4. Do you have any dependents?

In the underappreciated category:
Margin Call. Movie about the 2008 financial crisis. Just a bunch of people talking, but really good writing and acting. Amazing cast with Kevin Spacey, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Demi Moore, Stanley Tucci, etc. I think they all did it pro bono because the budget was $3.5M. The film only grossed $19.5M. It's on Amazon Prime now. Go watch it.
Thank You for Smoking. Tobacco lobbyist with an identity crisis. Only grossed $39M worldwide. Jason Reitman wrote this and Up in the Air. Solid comedy. Another awesome cast with Aaron Eckhart, Sam Elliott, Ron Lowe, Katie Holmes, Maria Bello, William H Macy, Robert Duvall and JK Simmons. Sometimes I wonder if the cast does this for free after they read the script.
Up in the Air. George Clooney flying around the country laying people off and having an identity crisis. Vera Farmiga (dat ass), Jason Bateman, Anna Kendrick, Sam Elliott, Danny McBride, Zach Galiwishhisnamewaseasiertopronounce and JK Simmons.
JK Simmons should be in everything.

What was that guy doing? Making it rain? It looked like dollah bills in the air, on the floor.
Also, that guy is probably dead after landing on his head.
