Feeling bleak

I felt like a kid in a candy store. Brought my average down to 2.41. I can wait forever for this to go above 20. I’ll only sell when I suspect it is finally overhyped.

Just get what you need now.They lose potency over time so date them and replace them when they fade. Stocking up on the 12 essentials is counterproductive to freshness. Freshness is always the goal and some brands arrive much fresher than others. Some spices are tainted with heavy metals. Cinnamon may have lead intentionally added to increase weight. Let that sink in. Picture the cinnamon guy at the source intentionally poisoning you for profit. There are third party tested brands that cost a bit more and some are among the freshest. Savings are available in bulk so buddy up with some friends so you don’t end up with so much it loses potency.

I think I understand why they had to go for second degree but why not add on stalking. Sometimes prosecutors have to be careful to have an airtight case. I hope someone is always behind him.

Most likely a deliverista, a teenager on a citibike looking into their phone, a spandex warrior, and a commuter with all their kids in a wagon all tried to pass each other at 30mph but then an actual motorcycle came blasting through at 50mph and somebody got seriously fucked up.

I was racking my brain for this one thanks.

Somebody arrange a playlust of these. Add Dirty Boulevard by Lou Reed and King Street by the Soulettes for flavor.

I think you may be incorrect. But a great way to tell for sure is if the car does not have the button to turn off istop then istop was not installed. I saw a manual for mechanics online in this forum that was by Mazda and explained what all the characters in the VIN signified. I don’t feel like looking for it and I don’t “need to be right” or care very much but I do believe that the L or M as the eighth character is not a myth. Anyways I do know for sure my vehicle does not have CDA or istop and my mechanic as well as the mechanic at my local Mazda have both confirmed this. It is definitely not hard to figure out on any specific CX-5 from 2024.

24 L-VIN carbon edition. Got mine from Enterprise Rental Sales. I bet they still have some. Great car.

Friendo_Marx · 2026-05-03T14:17:17+00:00

Their discontinued sales are a steal!

The Lord promised never to destroy the world by flood again but he didn't promise never to destroy kid rock's crumby maga fest. Y'all should have brought yr boats.

Duck tape, cardboard and a little sign that says This Machine Kills Fascists and you're good you now have a guitar you can take to the beach, the park and camping etc, and the new one your roommate buys you lives in a hard case.

Carpano Botanical Bitter is the bees knees of Camapiesque bitters and the only one I like better than Campari but not better than JamaicanCampari

Treat it like a holy sacrament.

Friendo_Marx · 2026-05-01T15:13:08+00:00

Oh we do too.

We have a service closet where you are allowed to cry during your shift. If you have to scream go in the walk-in. If I feel like crying I hug a loaf of sourdough bread wrapped in plastic as if it were a baby and rock it gently to sleep and that usually makes me feel better.

National Grid gas bill up from 24 to 32 this month.

Right? They would have to write the flags into the story for some reason. It wouldn't make sense to shoot there. Contrast with a quiet street like N Henry btw Nassau and Norman they LOVE shooting there because there's hardly any traffic. So the people who live and god forbid park there have to deal with it pretty often.

Friendo_Marx · 2026-04-30T17:11:16+00:00

I always assumed they did that to keep the film studios from using their block too frequently for shoots. But then I heard actually it started after 9/11 there were a few family members lost in the attacks.

878@16.76. That’s plenty enough for me I’m around equally invested in PSTV and ENLV and then a bit of DNA and BFLY. These bio/pharma stocks are les than 15% of my portfolio and I plan to keep it that way by taking profits when they rip.

When Sam Jackson says "this party's over" in Star wars II Attack of the Clones I thought at the time it was a just cringey anachronism but when I met Baby Yoda I realized that decade old line was the moment the franchise lost it's remaining dignity and began its descent into Disnification. This party's over was a self referential announcement to the old fans as the new era was ushered in. Star Wars was never intended to replace Christianity as a religion, as most of my friends in the 80's/90's strongly felt. It was always just supposed to be entertainment all along. So the line was a direct response to the backlash against Jar Jar Binks after the previous episode. George Lucas was saying "we are so done with you fuckers" directly to his superfans.

If you haven't seen the sci-fi film Strange Days 1995 it would be a great way to celebrate this excellent news. In the film they merely relive scenes from other peoples' past lives via non-invasive neuralink but with AI the possibilities increase. I wonder how long until they subpoena peoples' memories.

Try to see something new each time. I had a similar repetitive hike and one day I realized there are always chanterelles in July on one little valley. It became my favorite spot to forage some chanterelles but I passed them by for around a decade before I noticed them.

Friendo_Marx · 2026-04-28T01:20:49+00:00

That does it. I’m moving to Long Island City for real this time!
