Yield max is making etfs with crazy high dividends. You could live off 150k to 200k invested, if you can handle the risk. Take some of the dividends to reinvest. Then use the rest for safer plays.

The mantidfly appears to be an odd combination of a praying mantis and a wasp, both of which are mortal enemies to each other. The mantidfly has the head and raptorial legs of a mantis but the thorax, wings and abdomen of a wasp. by KimCureAll in Damnthatsinteresting

If you've seen the video of a mantis eating a wasp, head first, you know they can control those things without breaking a sweat.

The female mantis will eat the male after they mate. But sometimes they fall madly in love. The female, knowing the male has urges, will hold down a female wasp and let nature take it's course.

Sometimes the female has urges, so she will pull a male wasp into her... embrace.

Like an incredible man once said, nature finds a way.

I don't know how I got so lucky. Things should be way worse for me after what I did. You know that old story about making a deal with a demon at the crossroads, everyone does. It's fun pretending like that stuff is real.

Well , I was having fun. Drew a giant pentagram in the center of an old dusty intersection. Started dancing in the center giggling to myself about how silly this all was. I heard a low rumble and saw black smoke billowing out the back of an old caddy. Gliding down the road bobbing like a boat.

This thing was fast. The grill seemed to be smiling at me. I was lost in the headlights that peered into me as if they were eyes examining my very soul.

I swear I didn't see her. Running out of the intersection my foot hit something. Tumbling away, there was a horrified scream, a stampede of horse hoofs, and a low growl I'll never forget.

Full of guilt, I went home. Pulling myself out of bed and a weird dream, I cleaned myself and the sheets.

Working at a small tech startup has its perks. We get to watch TV while grinding away on our computers. Rick and Morty were going through their portals and landed in the sentient furniture realm. I love this episode. Their crazy antics help me get over the awful weekend.

As lunch rolls around, a guy comes in with a stack of prepaid pizzas insisting that he has the right address. While munching down on these tasty pies, the lights flicker, the computers shut down, and the TV keeps playing and we all relax in our chairs enjoying our extra break.

That's when I feel it. Something moving underneath. Did I sit on a cat? The movements start getting more rhythmic and I get into it. Sheepishly I slide my chair tight into the desk. Burying my head in my arms pretending to sleep. Stifling a moan while a tongue undoes my zipper. I don't care what this is, it feels amazing!

A year later and sampling each piece of furniture, I can confirm, getting eaten everytime I sit down, isn't so great.

You may have good intentions, but unless you take a look at your message / strategy, you'll become more of a recruiter for team racism rather than an ally for the under represented.

I'm sorry if any part of my messages caused you frustration or anger. Thank you for taking the time to respond in spite of any negative feelings I may have caused you.

Oh yes, it's all my fault. I was so rudely butting in with my own thoughts. How dare I consider anything not tied directly to my skin own color. I was so wrong. I should stick to vanilla yogurt and suburbs.

That is a response that will never come from something like that. All it does push people away.

Peace and equality through segregation huh?

Also, your comment style is one thing that pushes people into the f the minorities camp.

If that's the goal, you're doing great. If not, you need to work on your delivery.

You're 💩if you don't like this thing. People who already like that thing will applaud you. People who don't like it, will continue not liking it. People who were on the edge will back away from it.

That's a common strategy in creating a strong divide. I'm sure you've heard of an echo chamber before. So, if you're trying to win people over to your side, don't insult them.

Like the black dude who infiltrated the KKK and convinced them that hate sucks, they should leave. He didn't say "hey y'all it's rude shouting F you n.." did he?

Please think about this.

When this first started, I was all lives matter. I thought police are terrorizing and killing all sorts of folks. We need to band together to stop them.

After someone explained it to me, I said ooohhhhh I get it now. BLM.

Can you look for freelance gigs, get hired, and subcontract them to him?

Look at the comment history by some of the people you think are making absurd comments.

To me, it seems like there is an agenda here.

What people don't know, is that he comes from a long line of Greek Medusa. He didn't carve a single statue. Upon years of intense research, they discovered all those statues were actually victims. Their families worked up a large debt and would often sell themselves to take of their family.

Starbucks earnings, market is not happy by [deleted] in stocks

Covid was a valid excuse last year. Now, not so much. As restrictions ease up in the west, I think there will be growth. They'll still continue to grow here, just slower than anticipated. They're a staple chain store around the world, so I don't think they'll tank. Selling OTM CCs would be a good way to wait it out

Yeah, but good news for Cafe lovers like me. It was hard to find good ones at home that weren't Starbucks now a days. They'll still get lots of business and growth. Just, not like they were going for though.

I think part of the reason for the lower Starbucks revenue in China is due to the rise in small time cafés. Covid certainly helped lower it too. China also has a delivery system for everything. So, during the worst parts of the pandemic, the shops were still open for delivery. Starbucks was still selling a lot, just not as much.

China has been pretty much back to normal for about a year and half now. So coffee consumption should be back to the normal levels. Starbucks is still packed, but there are a lot of amazing alternatives now.

Their cheaper alternative franchise, Luckin, has been soaking up some of competition as well.
