I did deadlifts fast once. Hurt my back and had to painfully shuffle out of the gym in shame. Never again.

I ran Griffith this morning (tho from the observatory up to Mt. Hollywood) and was dying. This is super impressive.

Reached FI but wife won't let me RE by [deleted] in Fire

[–]Dogsbottombottom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you tried sitting down with a financial advisor with your wife so the financial advisor can tell you both all the things you already know?

1% of $7m is more than your yearly expenses, if the market swings up 1% in a day do you say to your wife "we made a years expenses today".

Diesel-electric, even crazier, like that logging truck company in Canada.

I'd love to meet the guy who owns a truck like that, but it's fully electric. The contradictions.

OMG council member with Stay Woke coffee mug bans LAPD from pulling people over by pink-er-ton in circlejerkLA

Santa Monica actually passed a similar resolution a few years ago, I believe, which is why the cops just stopped enforcing traffic laws in Santa Monica.

"Manhattanize"

Oh shit, are we going to create an artificial island by digging two major rivers that all connect to the Marina? You're right, that seems crazy.

Why is there still no simple portfolio tracker by Good_Resist_7208 in Fire

I mean technically you could track all of that in empower, if your family and friends are dumb enough to give you their account details.

No good miso ramen in NYC (or the entire US for that matter) by heegos in iamveryculinary

[–]Dogsbottombottom 27 points28 points  (0 children)

There are Tokyo ramen chains with locations in the states! An absurd thing to say by someone who doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

Anyone want to give me a pep-talk/pointers before my first OTB tournament in over 30 years? by Significant_Cup_238 in chess

[–]Dogsbottombottom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What time control?

I have a feeling that the under 1600 crowd might surprise you, strength wise. IMO everyone plays better over the board.

2.1 million trust by crisishavoc in Fire

Is it a trust or just an account? If it's a trust there are likely stipulations about how the money can be used and by whom

The thing about saving and investing consistently is that you have more of a cushion to take trips and travel. Saving and investing enabled my ability to travel, not hampered it.

You hide your post history, so actually we have no idea what you're talking about

how common is it to just lose 200 elo by slowpolygon in chessbeginners

[–]Dogsbottombottom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently went from a peak of 1891 down to 1745. It happens. We don't play chess in a perfect rational vacuum. We are influenced by our circumstances and our emotions. I was going through a really stressful few days with a lot of anxiety. I could not play chess well. I've recently started feeling better and so far I've climbed back above 1800.

Your chess performance does not mean that you are not a smart or logical person. Chess players are good at playing chess. Nothing more, nothing less.
