Yep. Every 3 years work lets me buy a new computer on their dime. Old one gets gifted to my partner or friends.

I sold most of my TSLA at 350, but kept a couple hundred to back some long calls at 400. Kinda wish I’d just unloaded it all, but those calls are likely to go unclaimed, so that’s nice.

I imagine he’ll throw one or more of the kids under the bus.

Gav. Cameo from Nukees. Dude ends up outnumbering quite a few species. As the author notes, you have to be dinka-cho careful with tokjith.

Schlock Mercenary is pretty great, I reread it every few years.

If you like military scifi it’s worth a look.

I mean, yeah. We buy our eggs from a local farm. It’s pretty great, they deliver it straight to my partner’s workplace every week or two. Most eggs are torture-eggs, and we won’t buy the Costco egg whites on that basis. However, my point is that “eggs by the gallon” is not farfetched!

I’ve seen Costco selling egg whites by the litre carton. Gallons wouldn’t be farfetched for restaurant supply.

Oh, sweety. If you think there are no abortions in Texas now, I have a great deal on seafront property in Florida for you.

Clearly a Dutch flag torn in half.

A bit silly. I picked up the Holy Mightstone quest item on my WoW paladin in like 2005, and decided to save it to use, someday, to get some RP revenge on Arthas. I held on to it until facing him down I’m WotLKs Icecrown Citadel raid, and used it on our first boss attempt. I want to say that was 7 years but I can’t be arsed to look it up.

Immediately wiped, of course, but winning was never the point.

I work for a Canadian university library and I assure you that data archival efforts are proceeding apace. I can’t really say more without possibly endangering American colleagues.

I’ll have to look for that. Probably not at our regular market but there is a south American specialty store across the street that I have neglected.

Soak rice overnight. Add riceand water, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, to blender . Blend. Strain. Serve over ice, or not.

The American beer you get in Canada is terrible. Budweiser and Miller and shit like that. American beer at an American pub was great, when I last visited.

Great with vinegar too.

I wonder if Costco stock is a good buy right now. Currently $937 up from $300 in 2020. A P/E of 55, with 0.5% annual dividends paid quarterly.

With the new risk of being targeted by MAGAs for a boycott, I could see that being a problem. I don’t think Costco’s survival as a corporation depends on its stock. They do stock buybacks, which is going to be artificially inflating the price a bit.

If it drops significantly, I could see it being worth the pickup. Maybe I’ll sell some long put options.

For clarity I use semi for 2x a period and bi for every two periods. I think everyone should. :)

I make sourdough bread biweekly-ish. Freezing it (after it’s had a 24-36 hour curing period) is fine. Toasts right back up.

Swearing an oath “in vain” is not allowed. Ie, don’t swear in the holy name and then go back on your word. As I understand it. That would be the mortal sin.

I put it in the “teddy bear” category. If we see people with a teddy bear at the carnival, we’ll try the games
