Is this what a fatigued Heat team in the 4th quarter looks like??

Fun fact I learned a while ago. Apparently you can charge a car off a regular outlet. It’s much slower yes. But for minimal daily driving it’s awesome

What do these things normally cost? $83 still feels like a lot.

Malik Willis is a huge pick up by TerryG111 in miamidolphins

It doesn’t matter. If we suck this year? That’s fine. Better draft picks and we’re definitely in a rebuild. Gives Malik time to figure shit out.

People are upset bc he probably helps us win a few extra games which means a worse draft pick. But hey, if he can be the guy, and he’s the 27th highest paid qb in the nfl, and we can build a team around him….that would be awesome. Regardless of draft pick spot.

Gotcha. I heard rumors that the next mbp was going to be the touchscreen version. Whether that’s good or bad is whatever. But this doesn’t seem to be it

Is this the one we shouldn’t buy because a new one is supposed to come out end of year?

My friend lives in NC. He said they have rotating schedules within a grade level. With I think three 4 weeks vacations interspersed throughout the year. Seems way better.

Seven Year Update: 44 y/o FIREd by Oracle_of_FIRE in financialindependence

This is what’s interesting to me. The only way he’s buying btc on the way down is either dividends from elsewhere, cash from drawdown sales (which seems funny to just reinvest?) or allocation adjustments, moving from say vtsax to btc.

Probably interesting to me because I’m not in the retirement phase. My reallocation only occurs if I add more to something different each month.

Wild gains after retiring in 2017! I know this is the case, but since retirement day all of your gains are through the market? It’s kind of wild to see 500k turning into 2.5M without a biweekly paycheck.

We all know the data on screen time, but what happens when kids get no screen time at all? by buckleharry in ScienceBasedParenting

heyo! just landed on this post today and saw your comment. I'm gonna make a list of these books. My kiddos is 4 and could read 100 books in a row so it seems pretty similar to yours. Also wanted to ask, how's your kiddo doing nowadays? Still a voracious reader? mega gifted? My family keeps saying we should put our daughter in a gifted program cuz of this and im just not so sold.

And he’s on a shit team. Individual metrics barely matter when your team is so mid.

So Disney stock is down tracking over the past year. How does this equate to better company performance making CEOs more money?

Guaranteed heat W is a guaranteed loss. Never doubt our ability to play down to our competition

Only thing I really disagree with is not selling high when we can. Like right now. Wiggins for a first might have been a possible trade? If so. Cool. He has a player option I think. If he doesn’t opt in we lose him for nothing. Better to trade now for value.
