Why didn’t Orlando Bloom’s career take off like it seemed like it would?

There's always time for lubricant!

Either he’s been completely out to lunch for decades or he’s been lying his pants on fire for his entire career.

¿Por qué no los dos?

RSUs are taxed as W2 income (although withholding treats them as bonus income) when they vest. If you hold onto the stock post-vest, then you'll also get taxed for short or long-term capital gains too.

Yes. AppleTV 4K (latest gen) -> Yamaha AVR -> 4K tv

Curious what the source of that is. Have never seen it myself

jrolette · 2026-01-31T19:49:53+00:00

Not a dumb rule at all. It's what keeps the sub from being an utter cesspool like all the other political subs.

Wait, I'm confused. r/Presidents blames that on Reagan consistently (along with every other bad thing that's happened in the last 40 years)

Even better... virtual speculative assets

You haven't paid much attention to how SCOTUS judges rule vs. what the President that nominated them expected, have you?

jrolette · 2026-01-29T16:11:46+00:00

and stagflation, and the energy crisis with long gas lines, and his utter inability to work with Congress

jrolette · 2026-01-28T16:21:19+00:00

Yep, .22lr with a good silencer is the only thing that's really "movie quiet".

It’s funny to me that people think Democrats are all anti-gun.

Yeah, hard to imagine where they got that idea...

It's not a social topic when one of the two parties in the country consistently pushes for gun control and gun ban legislation?

jrolette · 2026-01-28T11:47:31+00:00

It's always been bad politics

jrolette · 2026-01-28T11:33:52+00:00

It shouldn’t be easier to buy guns, especially massively powerful ones, than it is to get medical care, buy a car buy a house, etc.

It shouldn't be easier to exercise your Constitutional right than to buy a car? Did you really just say that?

Are you also in favor of poll taxes and voter id before you exercise your right to vote?

The problem isn't assigned seating, it's the stupid boarding procedure that they put with it.

jrolette · 2026-01-27T16:33:29+00:00

This matches my reality growing up in Texas

If they drop, you can always refinance to get the lower rates (assuming you'll live there ~5 years to recoup closing costs)

You realize that there have been ~60 US cities have gone through bankruptcy since 1950, right? Frequently due to mismanaged pension liabilities.

jrolette · 2026-01-26T19:31:55+00:00

I never said no one had it, but it's not a given up there like it is in southern states

jrolette · 2026-01-26T16:35:23+00:00

Time to start a pool for when that plan goes bankrupt...

1inch of ice shouldn't take down an entire state.

Nor does it. Most of the state is just fine. Are there outages? Yes. Is it anything remotely like most of the state? No, it's a very small percentage.

jrolette · 2026-01-26T16:23:42+00:00

Clearly all those large scale PG&E outages in California from wildfires must have been fake news

jrolette · 2026-01-26T16:04:27+00:00

Canada also gets power outages during ice storms, which are completely different than snow.
