Avengers Doomsday will be the first movie to intentionally ape those shitty AI videos: 6 second videos of that bloated cast looking at the camera and saying one line each. No real plot just vibes.

I really dislike reading nonfiction books. My pro gamer tip? Just try and push through 10, 15, 20 pages a day. At 10 pages, you’ll finish a 300 page boring as hell book on income inequality or product design in a month!

I’ve read 87 books this year. Normally I read maybe 2-5 books a year. It’s been a confluence of two events: 1, me reading Dungeon Crawler Carl and diving into the litrpg genre. 2, me sleep training my toddler. Which meant sitting in a dimly lit room for 45 minutes a night in silence for months

The winters are mild, and summer is very sunny. The volcanic soil and frequent rainfall leads to flowers being bloom 10 months a year. And politically, it’s a lot more liberal than San Diego.

It also doesn’t sound outrageous because like 1, printing 100 pages or whatever costs like $4 at Kinkos 2, I could see it being part of a mental process to know how far done someone is

Even if the original is 7 years at $950/months that’s so fucking horrible. There is no way they don’t sell that car for a massive loss in 1-3 years when someone actually shows them the math that they’re getting railroaded.

One time in San Diego I went to this estate sale, I think it was in bay Ho. So this guys house has spare bedrooms converted into libraries. It was awesome. Dude had North Korean juche manuals even. Anyways he had a closed door cabinet full of porn too which I think is also pretty cool

He walks around the room, organizes the bookshelf, or threatens to kiss me with the toy rabbit. He sits down in my lap for 5 secs then gets up again to walk around. Maybe he stops to play with the rescue bots. Usually by book 2 he’s calmer but once we finish and he takes a piss break, he goes to bed

Middle class is objectively not rich. Stop moving goal posts… The middle class lives a lifestyle furnished through debt. It’s why they’re pushing 7 year auto loans and footing 50 year mortgages
