  1. Are you thinking this goes back to pre-2024 levels, or are you just hoping to get back to $10-11 to break even?
  2. About a decade ago a neighbor was suffering from a very rare form of cancer, to the point that experimental treatment was the best path forward. I don't remember if GoFundMe was a thing back then, but there was an effort spearheaded by family friends to cover the expensive treatment that wasn't covered by insurance, travel to/from a different city, hotel costs, etc. I live in a nice neighborhood, but the estimated $100k is a big bogey for most people. I didn't feel bad giving $1k towards the effort. Then 2 weeks later landscape guys show up with about dozen trees and shrubs to improve the landscaping in the front yard, and a new $50k+ SUV appears in the driveway. So, yes, I agree just because a GoFundMe was a started, you have no idea if they actually need it.
  3. 12% look at the Republican candidates and said "yep, that Steve Bannon guy is the one for me". JFC.
  4. Fair enough. It just seems like the original comment implied that he's currently getting a pension so he should be able to afford his healthcare. That isn't the case.
  5. Pension doesn't kick in until age 55, and then it's like $40k per year.
  6. Thanks for the tip. Just paid $21.50. Activation successful.
  7. Aren't MMR vaccines for life? Or are we finding out we may need boosters now that the dumbfucks are making measles relevant again?
  8. My guess is you undersalted the batter by a pint or two.
  9. Let hope that aggressive offer comes after it is back in double digits and not at $4.
  10. I get your premise, and the quality of play in the womens game has improved, but the uphill battle for women's basketball that UFC didnt have to compete with is there is direct competition in the same sport. People who want to watch basketball have mens college and pro to choose from, multiple games every day, and the quality of play is superior to the women's version. You could argue UFC had completion from boxing, but 1) those are different sports, and 2) boxing is not ubitiquous like basketball. The casual fan would watch 3 nights of fights per year, at most.
  11. i bought another 2k shares earlier today to get my avg down under $11. Up to 8k shares now.
  12. Trinidad isn't there yet. But looks like it may start reaching more of it's potential in the coming years.
  13. Fuckin' A this. I look forward to the Amarillo to Crested Butte stretch every summer. Getting to Amarillo sucks, though. The one town we've been driving through for 20 years that I never understood is Trinidad. It always struck me as a town that has a lot of potential, but the population has been between 9-10k for the past 60 years. It sits at the base of a really cool mountain. From the highway it looks like it should have a historic downtown with breweries, restaurants, an art district, etc. It has fairly mild winters by Colorado mountain standards and hot summer days/cool summer nights. Access to fishing. I never understood why it wasn't more of an outdoors destination town. Then I found out that much of the land around Fisher's Peak was privately owned. That changed in 2019 apparently. https://www.singletracks.com/mtb-trails/colorados-next-great-mtb-destination-plans-to-build-up-to-100-miles-of-singletrack/ May need to start looking at property.
  14. and now UUUU dips below $5. Time to buy and make a little money in 3 months when it inevitably goes above $6.
  15. Sold mine this morning. Thanks for the tip. Made close to $20k.
  16. Much like the Oxford comma, spaces can really change the interpretation of a sentence. Dude is out there just making a living, and fucking tourists are calling him dumb.
  17. I hate you.
  18. I've long been of the opinion that "Shook me all night long" is the greatest rock song ever recorded. It's probably only around #5 of my favorite AC/DC songs, but in terms of greatest, it checks all the boxes better than others. Great guitar intro Memorable chorus that's easy to sing to Good solo Tight 3 1/2 min length Lyrics fit "rock and roll". It gets in, rocks your face off, then gets out.
  19. Need to get him to the Stonks thread so he can invest in some slow movers. I think we could put together a top 10...errr top 50 list pretty easily.
  20. I've never done the dried chile thing. Is there a downside to cutting the stems off, grinding them, and adding to the pot vs the rehydrate method?
  21. Cost basis below $10? Must be nice.
  22. UUUU back down to around $5. Time to buy and set sell price of $6.50. That thing is a rollercoaster between ~$5 and ~$7. You can buy/sell 2-3 times a years just playing between those levels.
