  1. Right after he releases his grades and his taxes.
  2. Never, never, never good to get divorced and lose half your shit late in life. As an old guy working longer than I envisioned post-full Social Security retirement age, my goals are to continue to not have a single dime in credit card or auto loan debt, keep pumping at less 50 K in my solo 401(k), every year (separate from savings and investments) and to keep reminding myself there is no reason to pay off my small mortgage when the interest rate begins with a “2”. One small benefit at keeping working is that Social Security takes your 30 best earnings years every year and re-calculates the figures. it ain’t much, but I’m making about $600 a month more than I would have had I retired at 66. I have the perfect old guy job right now, making six figures but not having any real responsibility - which means I don’t have any stress or anything I can fuck up. I’m trying to make myself as invaluable as possible, because my goal next year is to either retire or preferably tell my employer I will work Tuesday Wednesday Thursday and have a four days weekend every week, in return for 60% of my current compensation. That arrangement would keep me busy and my mind still intellectually stimulated, while allowing me four days a week to woo the wommins du jure on mini Vacays. And I like the idea of continuing to add to my assets before I have to dig into them to live. Plus, I want to have a bigger estate to leave to my two sons. They are gonna have to live in this shit show world after I pass, and I don’t think it’s gonna be as enjoyable as my 30s and 40s were for them.
  3. “The answer has always been right in front of you, you just had to read it for yourself.”
  4. And all around even our old friends put us down. Let’s drop the big one, and see what happens.
  5. Katreena is < checks notes> 36. That’s a really hard 36.
  6. Well, he deserved that for attacking people who were on top of something called “Cheat Mountain”.
  7. Well, if MAGA voters remember that American history When the south seceded they were sure that Europe’s need for raw cotton what’s so strong that France and Britain would recognize the Confederacy to prevent the disruption of the supply of cotton. “Cotton is King!!”, they said. Union blockades was seen as stupid Yankees putting pressure on Europe to support the Confederacy. That did not happen, but it did cause the rise of Egyptian Cotton as a competitor to the south after the Woah ‘tween tha States…
  8. Well, he’s also going to tell them if there’s no future elections - then nobody has to send him any more money to beat the liberals and their vote changing machines. no more elections = MAGA voter profit $
  9. “Teriff” is the Arabic word from which “tariff” was derived. It means “make the Christian dogs pay the tax”. At least, that is the message that I’d like to spread in the ‘Murica, Patriot, Jeebus Guns contrails community.
  10. I have had it with these MF-ing squirrels on my MF-ing bird feeder!
  11. in short, this means you are a Nazi lover
  12. I always love that GIF
  13. Yes, but smaller than a hootenanny.
  14. My long time for law partners husband was a captain in the New Orleans fire department, and he and his buddies are the Trumpy-est bitches you can possibly find. They are a unique subset, admittedly, because their entire life is devoted to receiving benefits on the government tit in a socialist way, jumping on every perceived disability category and dollar they can find. But they will get angry and bemoan anyone else getting government benefits. It is what it is.
  15. use the gold to buy as many of the most advanced computer chips you can get your hand on right now.
  16. I highly advise anyone who can get it to get the 20 variant pneumonia vaccination. The flu won’t kill you but the pneumonia you get from the flu might. I had previously had the 13 variant about 10 years ago, and the booster shot I received was perhaps the least painful, fewest side effects vaccination I’ve ever had
  17. We should place this next to the non-sexual Sugar Baby thread
  18. Why don’t you just wear a hat that says, “I am in a cult!”? ” I am not a critical thinker”, “ I am not well educated - and OK with that“ , and “Anything I see on Fox News I assume is correct without further investigation - especially if it agrees with my Facebook” would work too. That last one is probably too long.
  19. As a former Florida resident, I never had any use for Cuban Republicans. They were always viewed by me as just another flavor of one issue voter idiot - who do not care about anything but making sure the people who stayed in Cuba have no access to trade or success and happiness in life. My Spanish teacher in high school was a former Cuban Supreme Court justice, and a more angry, emotional, vindictive Cunt was never birthed. She always made it very clear that teaching us was beneath her. I’m sure it made her very sad that she could no longer be bribed to throw cases in favor of the corrupt government and oligarchs. edit: the one Spanish phrase she routinely literally screamed at us was, “Calla la boca!!”
  20. What a blessing that defrocked Nazi saluting priests can find immediate employment milking cows in Idaho. That is the type of 5-D chess that Trump plays.
  21. if you have clear liability and actual injury, you might think you do not need an attorney. But one of the things an attorney can give you is an analysis of the medical causation and if you need someone like an orthopedist or neurologist to prove your damages. If you go see a chiropractor for two or three months, there won’t be a huge issue with paying you something for pain and suffering and your medical care bills. But your PI attorney will also get involved in your medical liens and trying to reduce medical bills so that you come out ahead with more money in your pocket. Most PI attorneys work with medical clinics that do so much business with them, they can often cut their bill once the case settles if you need to. The incentive to do that for a private self pay patient is practically nonexistent. But you should consider that many physicians want nothing to do with lawsuits, nor do they have a particular interest in helping you with medical causation to prove your damages. If you rely on your own medical insurance, you may get some really conservative doc that essentially throws you under the bus and says you don’t need an MRI or a specialist - and that your never had before accident back pain is due to you being old and having pre-existing conditions In Louisiana, there are a few people who will take 20% on cases that are quick non-serious flips, or cases where they will pony up the policy limits immediately. The main thing is, there are a lot of moving parts in a personal injury matter, and if you don’t understand them and try to do it yourself, you could wind up completely screwed, or you could wind up fine. But you might consider that every insurance company is hoping and praying that you do not get lawyered up. Which should tell you something.
  22. it is always interesting to ask those older people the very first thing in their memory. Or in my case, I would ask them if their parents or grandparents ever told them their first memories. When I asked my mother that, she told me her grandmother‘s first memory was being a young child in a sleigh in Sweden with her father being terrified and using his whip against wolves, who were chasing the sleigh - probably wanting to eat some horses. Her other memory was playing at serving tea to her doll, using acorns as teacups. I never met my Swedish great-grandmother, but weirdly I have information about what she was doing in the 1860s
