curious as to the significance of mentioning “linux user” lol

that will never happen. even as they are starving and dehydrated from lack of food and clean water they will mutter with their dying breath “thanks Biden”.

How will each interact with my current prescription meds?

I used to be the golden child until I was an adult and became the black sheep of the family because I came out as gay, atheist, and Democrat.

My sister who was the problem child, smoked, drank, and fucked in her teenage years became the model Christian Republican wife with 2 kids so she’s now the golden child.

But the real problem were my narcissistic parents.

Haven’t had any serious connection with my parents in nearly 20 years now. That part has been going great getting them out of my life.

strong possibility they work in cybersecurity or IT too

you have to pregame at least enough to be able to talk to the girls and not just hide in a corner

when I don’t feel like cooking anything and can convince myself to stay home to eat here are my go tos:

1. get a rice cooker. an Asian one you get from the Asian supermarket or invest in a Zojirushi (white people rice cookers suck). they are super easy to use. you throw the rice in with some water and about 15-30 minutes later you have a fresh pot of rice. go watch a show while it finishes. if you can remember you can even start a pot before work or eat the rice from the previous day (as long as it was in the keep warm setting). it can also cook brown rice, other ancient grains, beans, lentils, etc.
2. eggs. fry the eggs and throw them on the rice with some soya sauce. takes like two minutes. my hack here is i have a Japanese tamagoyaki pan. it’s small and perfect to cook a portion for a single person so i don’t have to deal with and clean a giant skillet. i just rinse it out (if i remember) and leave it on the stove top for the next time I use it since I use it so often.
3. toaster oven chicken thigh. i get like those ten packs of chicken thighs at the supermarket. throw one on with some salt and pepper (and other spices if you feel like it) onto a small sheet pan. drizzle with olive oil and stick it in my toaster oven (which is a convection toaster oven) for 30 minutes at 350degF and you get delicious roast chicken. the toaster oven is a great hack for lots of foods actually (including toast) since you don’t have to deal with preheating a huge oven. i don’t even usually preheat it at all. takes about the same time as the rice so i can take 5 minutes to start both at the same time go watch an episode of DanDanDan and have a chicken and rice dinner ready when it’s done.
4. salad mix and premade dressing. get kale mixes. they take longer to go bad. they are prewashed. all you do is throe dressing on and you’re good. adding more toppings is up to you.
5. those tiny tomatos. rinse them and eat them on their own or on your salad.
6. cucumbers. again in the no-cook veggie category. just rinse and chop roughly. top with soya or vinegar and salt. get english or persian cucumbers since the skin on normal cucumbers isnt very nice. they now even have tiny ones you probably don’t even need to cut through the power of science.
7. roast broccoli/cauli/other veggie in the toaster oven. when you do your chicken break off a few florets of broccoli and throw it on the pan with the chicken when you’re seasoning and oiling. voila, roast broccoli done at the same time as the chicken.

i don’t do all of these everyday. some days i just have energy to do one like make rice and top it with dried seaweed or cheese. still better then eating out or ramen everyday (though I still eat ramen sometimes – but it’s usually more effort since i usually fancy it up with eggs and kimchi [another hack i forgot-if you like kimchi-buy a jar of the stuff and throw it on rice. great meal on its own])

and visit your Asian supermarket once a month. their frozen sections are filled with premade crap you can just microwave but are still good quality like potstickers or scallion pancakes and they are usually cheaper to shop at

him being a sex offender is very old news basically chiseled in stone at this point. this is just yet another case of him being a sex offender.

Thanks!

What’s the difference between a backdoor roth and mega backdoor roth? you’re moving a 401k into a Roth?

my guess is my income in retirement will be less than my income now so I’m guessing my taxes will be lower?

thanks for the advice about finding an advisor!

I ain’t a high roller like some of y’all. But I’m wondering about some questions like “should I (and could I) do a backdoor Roth” or a “Roth 401k” and was wondering if I should talk to a financial advisor. But I don’t feel like I’m in the asset bracket for someone who has a “financial advisor” so I’m kind of scared to talk to one.

Did you guys have a financial person to talk to when you didn’t have a ton of money? If not, approximately at what level of assets did you talk to a financial advisor?

maybe my standards are just lower now because I still see idiots cheering trump as he is literally killing them and stealing their money so long as they think he is “owning the libs”

she’s talking about mamdani not Trump here

at least she’s realized and admits her mistake and changed her voting patterns. a huge portion will never have that self-awareness

Google Sheets. I don’t do line item budgeting though. I create my overall plan in Sheets so I know what transfers to set up and that it doesn’t exceed my income and I just look at Monarch Money to see how my spending is going. It’s $100 a year and a pretty good app.

this goes hard

Easy democrat win: say you have the true Epstein files and you will release them day 1 if you get in office. also the ufo files

To shame a hypocrite they must first have the capability to feel shame.

damn that pastor looks like a literal neanderthal who just melted out of the ice

there are a different type of conservatism. Nigeria has Christian fundamentalist conservatism so they love Trump’s anti-gay and anti-abortion government. India is hyper pro-capitalist so they love billionaires owning everything. South America is pro-apartheid and they mostly love Elon Musk.

Japan is conservative in a social sense that doesn’t include religion. they don’t mesh with trump’s America. Poland should love Trump, so not sure what’s happening there other than they’re concerned about his pro-Russia stance. that said the polish government doesn’t seem popular with its people so maybe it is a case of them having a conservative government but not a conservative population.
