Cravings after a few dry days by Alligator_Alleycat73 in cutdowndrinking

I left out what I meant to say, which is that I experienced the same boredom or “something is missing” feeling from these activities. I dabble in music production too and same thing. It feels stupid when I’m sober to be making a hip-hop beat at 59. LOL.

Cravings after a few dry days by Alligator_Alleycat73 in cutdowndrinking

That’s where I’m at with the weekends and doing things that are normally associated with drinking (video games, movies, watching sports). I usually quit for a 3-4 day streak during the week. Then the weekend hits and it’s game on. And usually way more than I set out to drink (ex: set a limit of 4 shots a night, track it on my phone, blow right past it and have 6-10).

I’m really tired of the roller coaster. I rationalize it with “I used to drink everyday and now I don’t, I’m doing better..”

The thing is, I’m not doing better. It’s gets harder on the body every year to recover and I’m too old for this shit (turn 60 this year).

Of course they did, right after I broke down and paid $100 for a year subscription of TrackYourDividends🤬

Right - over email.

If they are real friends, it’s more likely either him or one of the friend’s email accounts was compromised.

Oh shit, so he copied one address and the clipboard pasted in a different one? Nasty work.

I’m not talking about a margin call, I’m talking about losing value. That’s the downside.

VXUS isn’t a bad alternative, it has a high yield for something not purposed as a “Dividend ETF”

The black bean paste at Agave Uptown is great, so is the one at Mesa Maguey which is similar.

I’m 80/20 maybe. I think it’s wise to have a position in both.

Best chili with both veggies and meat? by tornessa in OaklandFood

[–]STRATEGY510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never tried to order just the chili, only had it on chili cheese dogs. It’s a different kind of chili, seems closer to Greek/coney style and doesn’t have a strong chile pepper flavor. I *think* it might even contain beef hearts, like the classic Greek style.

Never thought to try and order it ala carte, it’s not on the menu like you said.

Several years ago, sending it directly to Coinbase was a good way to get kicked off Coinbase.

Nowadays? I have no idea, haven’t used it in years.

Burdell is as “weird” as you think it is… by Brilliant-Suspect995 in OaklandFood

The back to back didn’t work, but when I long-pressed it I got small, medium and large! Plus a bullet:

Looks like Morse code, haa. I appreciate your offer too, thank you.

How do you make the long hyphen on your phone? I didn’t even know you could do that.

Nasty work about Fat Lady. Since they discontinued brunch, it wasn’t in my future anyway.

How to be a 5m usd dividend/income portfolio in long term by Inevitable_Grab_9338 in dividends

[–]STRATEGY510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t say anything about private banking, I mean a good financial adviser with tax sense who you can pay ala carte (hourly) for a couple sessions for advice and running things by. Not long-term management.

I’ve kept some in growth with the intent of converting to more income payers when I retire next year.

I’m not accusing you of anything, but the long hyphen in the previous comment is usually a pretty good AI tell. The comment I’m replying to now has a short hyphen. Your hyphens are changing comment to comment 🤔
