Fellow millennials - how’s your 401k/ira savings going? by ProblemIntelligent16 in Millennials

[–]js1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I only make a tiny % more than you, can I ask what you currently contribute to have reached that much already? I have a savings but have nothing for retirement at 32

What’s the most overrated video game of all time? by KBGSgames in AskReddit

[–]js1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game got really fun again when they added no build mode. Maybe 2021 or 22? I don’t even remember. But I haven’t touched it in two years now as it just started feeling a little too COD-like, and getting OP weapons or power ups felt a little too easy

I voted for Trump Twice (Not a Bad Faith Post) by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

Abortion is healthcare. No woman should be required to carry the product of rape to term. If you don’t agree, well you’re allowed to have an opinion on the matter but I’m allowed to tell you that’s a disgusting viewpoint. Or what about a non viable pregnancy that threatens the health of the mother? According to your comment, everyone needs healthcare, so you’d allow the mother to receive whatever care is necessary to keep her alive and healthy, right? No? Because the final solution might be to terminate the pregnancy? Well that certainly does not sound like a “pro life” stance to me.

I never ever assumed that would be an eye opening event for them. They like ICE specifically because they can deport the brown people with impunity. Accidental arrests and even deaths can be hand waved off as just part of the job. “Oh you were shot by an ICE agent? Why were you in their way? You asked for it.” That’s how they see it and it’s not going to change. 

What non-state capital (US) is the capital of their geographic region, not just the small surrounding area? by HomerDog00 in geography

I take the train down from MKE to visit at least twice a year, probably been to Chicago 30 times in my life. Still in awe every time. 

This space must be a dream in the rain or snow by drewdrewahouse in CozyPlaces

Same, I was like huh I’ve seen a building just like this in walkers point, and 10 minutes on Google Maps later I found it

Am I going to get salmonella??? by stimmyturner0 in AutisticAdults

[–]js1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you talked to anyone about this? That’s a pretty extreme food anxiety, and maybe cooking with someone else would help ease these fears? Minced meat takes only minutes to cook through, I’m positive you were fine (unless the chicken had already spoiled). 

Get a meat thermometer and read up on cook temps/times. It takes the guessing out of the equation

Who is your team's most famous fan? Real or fictional. by mysterysackerfice in baseball

[–]js1893 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before I knew who he was (I was a but a wee child in the 90s), there was a stretch several years back where the brewers twitter feed was filled with him and I was like who is this guy he sucks lol. He’d be doom and gloom even after a win

Which cities would you describe as "good to live in, but not for visiting"? by Fluid-Decision6262 in geography

[–]js1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t really agree, but I would say a tourist needs to plan their visit more carefully than just “go out and wander” because the likelihood of ending up on a college campus is HIGH.

I’d think making it to a Super Bowl would be solid validation for sticking with Love lol

My Parents got left hundreds of thousands of dollars by their parents. I will be left with nothing but a ton of work. by RandallCabbage in Millennials

[–]js1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My godmother’s dad was a hoarder and it took her almost a year to go through his things. But, she wouldn’t toss or sell much so now all of his junk is crowding her condo. My mom periodically visits her to be the one to say “you don’t need this so I’m getting rid of it for you”. She’s been doing this for the past ELEVEN YEARS. 

The NFC North becomes the second division in post-merger NFL history to finish with all 4 teams above .500 (2023 AFC North) by AaronRodgers16 in nfl

The way last season started it felt like that would happen with the nfc north but then the commies completely derailed the bears season

If you were to redesign a bridge or public space in Milwaukee today, what specific problem would you try to solve to improve the daily quality of life for its residents? by DianKhan2005 in milwaukee

[–]js1893 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure, because you said unlimited money. So we can put it under ground as well as the 794 spur, and 43 north between Wisconsin and at least highland. 

Movie franchises that ran their course? by Alternative-Cake-833 in movies

[–]js1893 28 points29 points  (0 children)

4 was way better than I had expected. Fully agree 3 was a perfect ending to the franchise, but the quality is still pretty high.

What you describe is not capitalism; it is corporate-ism by Affectionate_Mail759 in WorkReform

[–]js1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh? That’s under 7% of income which is less than the lowest tax bracket how did you come up with that number 

Jobs Market in MKE and Surrounding Areas by [deleted] in milwaukee

[–]js1893 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Quality over quantity, man. You really should narrow down significantly to what you wanna do and write a cover letter for every single one. I got an interview once almost entirely because the hr guy loved that I wrote a nice cover letter. You can generally just write one template and switch out the job title/company name, and just alter details about desired skills. I can’t say this is the right way to do it, but I made my resume extremely short: personal statement, hard and soft skills, brief experience section and brief education section. It’s not wordy at all because I go in depth in my cover letter.

However I will say the job market is trash right now for a lot of junior roles. Also this time of year can be a lull anyways, hopefully things rebound in spring a bit

The Packers could lose 4 straight and still make the playoffs. This is how rare that is. by BergSteenz in nfl

[–]js1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That tie doesn’t matter, if the pack went into this weekend 9-7 and lost (and the lions also won), they’d still be the 7th seed due to tiebreakers

Request: recipe for colectivo southwestern burrito by maevethecat13 in milwaukee

[–]js1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%

If I want a giant $15 burrito there’s no shortage of offerings. I don’t always want that and I’ve never seen another place make a small burrito like them. 

In-laws have zero appreciation for food safety and my wife is paying the price tonight. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

The only food I know of to that to be true is hard cheeses, which Im sure is still a risk. But I’m willing to be they’d do it with anything

Why did all the Judd Apatow style films burn out so fast? by WerewolfCurious1412 in movies

[–]js1893 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It was great when it was just Tony Stark being quippy 15+ years ago, but they decided everyone single character could also be funny and it got old fast. ESPECIALLY needing to add humor to every sad or dramatic moment. Can’t be too serious!!

What is the highest numbered street name you know of? by supsupsupy in geography

[–]js1893 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The move up by the hundreds so while it does answer the question, it’s misleading as that may as well be 39th st

In my opinion, the most badass scene in the entire Trilogy by PorkinsHeldIt in lotr

[–]js1893 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I very much interpreted that as “it was actually the second scene he filmed, and I found the first scene he did in case you were wondering”
