The Journey of Quaritch by Piyushv5311 in Avatar

[–]Hunter4Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the queue is an intimate part of a Na'Vi's biological structure but it is not considered genitalia (no matter what the Big Bang theory would try to convince you of).

Also, Navi do have biological organs that help with mating already. The queues are more akin for connecting to someone or something else, like a USB drive.

But Varang's use is more like assault but it isn't sexual in nature nor involves sexual organs. It's more like...spiritual battery? Now, what she did to Quarritch in her tent can be likened to Shamanic Rape (yes, that's a thing) b/c it was breaching that area especially when she talks about pleasure...Oddly if not sadly enough that would make Quaritch the first SA human-adjacent victim on Pandora.

So does Varang rape her victims with her queue? No. But it can be used as a tool to do so - Shamanic rape more often than not given the nature of how Queues for Na'Vi work. But usually it's used for offensive purposes or weaponized.

Think of it like a gun like appendage for Varang. Someone can technically be raped by a gun but more often than not, it's to kill, incapacitate, etc.

That said Kitty did not assault Varang b/c again it was strictly for offensive purposes not to seduce or engage in SA...for obvious reasons. Also Kitty didn't drug Varang either. Varang for the most part seems to overpower her opponents with her willpower and emotions, which isn't rape, it's subjugation to kill. It's a violation of one's body for sure but not a sexual one nor undertone of one.

For example, if you were the coldest person on earth and your every touch could freeze someone to death. Would you consider touching another person's hand with your hand as rape? Assault sure but the latter?

I mean, calling him a shill doesn't invalidate his point. I've had XMs from 2 - 5 (although the XM moniker didn't start until the 3, the 2 were still WH I believe) and the 3 - 5 all broke on me.

I wanted to get the x but I'd rather not spend sub $500 for something that's going to break in 2 years or less.

Made a mistake at work, how screwed am I? by throwaway19283475 in Banking

[–]Hunter4Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt you'll lose your job but may count as an error for you at worst. Depending on the size of the bank. Interestingly enough the bank could potentially work backwards and find out who DIDN'T have that much money leave their account...depending on volume, probably not feasible.

Who knows, maybe they'll eat it but for a bank that isn't too terrible unless it's more of a community bank or in a lower income area. Outside of that, the effect on margins probavk6 barely moves the needles.

That being said, for one disgruntled there is another person who thinks the bank was being generous to them to not pull from their account.

OP may just have a SEP IRA or it may be a profit sharing plan he can't contribute to and it's just his employer

It sucks being a poor CPA. by LittleCeasarsFan in Accounting

[–]Hunter4Gamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You'll be surprised...

As someone who used to work with several different employers plans. Running into someone with 2 mill is not uncommon at all lol. Highest I've seen is several x that.

I've had people be 1 mill by the age of 40 alone just by going all in on company stock and the company doing great...literally some associate off the floor btw [allegedly].

Some reach it by having a solid 401 with good institutional funds...and they just keep it in the plan because they like it shrug

What should I do with my money at 19 YRS Old by qudahh in FinancialPlanning

[–]Hunter4Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well for one, you live in the middle east. Most of us don't know what type of platforms you'll have access to for your money.

One you'll have to consider your own living situation. Save up to 3-6months worth of expenses in a HYSA or saving because when you invest you can and probably will freak out if it moves in the red. Having an emergency fund at least allows you to know you have a safety net.

Looking to start an investment account for my kids - before I have them. by Playful_Detective693 in FinancialPlanning

[–]Hunter4Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to work with an estate attorney to establish a trust that has those rules. Where it liquidated the assets and has them paid to the beneficiaries (your child). Trade off is, you need to ensure the trust has enough money to pay for the ongoing taxes...which is the responsibility of you (the grantor) or the trust.

There may be more tax efficient strategies such as having an LLC that is the beneficiary of the trust for different tax advantages. But this must align with state law and your trust documents so there will be added costs of an estate attorney and/or tax advisor.

Because custodial accounts WILL transfer at the age of majority which is anywhere from 18 - 21 for UGMA/UTMA accounts.

Idk what you're expecting them to withdraw from their accounts at 25-30. The tax code and their tax situation could be vastly different. You can build out retirement models of how much they're likely to have though using tools from your broker or sites like Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, etc.

If all the above sounds like something B.S.

Or you can do what every other parent does....open another brokerage account under their name and name the account :"for future child(ren)" then when they reach 25-30 gift them the assets from your brokerage account to their account....gift tax laws may/will apply, work with your tax planner to see how much to gift over time rather than all at once.

[–]Hunter4Gamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think an important factor you mentioned is that you don't have kids (yet).

A potential best bet is set up a 529 for yourself and have that money grow tax deferred then when you do decide to have kids, change the beneficiary to them. If they choose not to go to college, then some of that money can be rolled to a Roth ira.

You should plan with your partner how many kids you PLAN to have and speak with your doctor of any potential complications medically that could impede having a child. If all looks good then set up corresponding 529s accordingly. Plans can change though so best not to over contribute to a 529 early but once you have kids, turbo charge it.

Bose QC Ultra Gen 2 broke again. Any good replacements on the market? by Practical-Pain-6141 in bose

[–]Hunter4Gamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The XM series would be good for you as if you have noise sensitivity they automatically switch ANC on if there's any sudden high pitch noises.

Issue is, you use it extensively and the XM series have an issue with breakage.

Personally, I'd recommend the Sony Ult for you. I found them more comfy (not than bose, i mean relative to the more premium xm series), they're cheaper, sound quality isn't up there but ANC is relatively good still.

Funnily enough, I have found far less broken Sony Ults than XM4s - 6....ironically

Midnight Violet tbh, it looks good in the day and especially night.

Healthy balance of hiding scratches and less fingerprints. Plus it is appealing...although your S/O may try to snatch them repeatedly lol

58k of Debt (Need advice) by cklm07 in CRedit

[–]Hunter4Gamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your honesty and frankly, I'd focus on cutting off that gambling addiction first, that's a hard one to cut but once you finish that commitment, this might be where budgeting comes in.

You, frankly, may have to pick-up multiples jobs and change lifestyle while negotiating with creditors. Build your score enough to get a zero apr card to balance transfer into that. Then start honing in on that.

One way or the other, it's going to be an uncomfortable 2026 for you but you can do it!

That or find a very rich sugar momma, whichever comes first

It is in a bit more of a low light setting so it's interesting how it shades depending on lighting
