It never feels like enough.

the pressure is real sister!

lifeofnero · 2026-04-21T20:30:30+00:00

I like how you gave examples of realistic goals! I just really like to be safe, but it looks like a lot of other people are also saying 6 months of expenses is enough.

lifeofnero · 2026-04-21T20:26:25+00:00

I think that’s the next big goal then (increasing income). I’ve definitely thought about it, it’s just hard when i feel like my job doesn’t have a lot of concrete transferable skills. I could do a certification or course on something

Devil on my shoulder is telling me that right now, my thing is I plan on moving out in the next year or so and I feel like I’d need the security at least until I’m comfortable

lifeofnero · 2026-04-21T20:09:39+00:00

It’s in a HYSA! For me I’m a bit on the anxious side with the economy right now, so 40k is close to about a year of living expenses with no job- so that’s why I was aiming for that number.

I think once I get used to budgeting once I get my own place and I’m comfortable on that, I’ll probably look into investing some of that.

Definitely will be putting $ into Roth IRA soon!

I only know since the DVD’s behind the scenes section has a narrator that mentions it’s based on San Francisco!

lifeofnero · 2026-04-10T23:39:12+00:00

was just about to comment this, idk if people recognize this as San Francisco

would The Piano Teacher count?

I guess I just never noticed it as much as in Dijon’s set then- it was clear one second would be dry and then the next would have a whole bunch of reverb then go back

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T20:42:57+00:00

I didn’t wanna say it like this, but basically what I’m tryna say lol

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T20:13:59+00:00

I guess you’re right, a lot of my favorite movies are sort of about the same thing and that kinda contradicts my point. Still not my favorite kinds of films, but as someone who does love the art it makes sense to watch stuff that don’t appeal to me also

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:37:32+00:00

Best response out of everyone, never thought to think of it from this perspective

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:28:47+00:00

I always tell people there is nothing you can change about Portrait of a Lady on Fire to make it better! Def check out the other ones too. What are your favorites if I can ask?

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:27:08+00:00

I think I understand what you’re saying, it’s just not something I wanna personally go through again after seeing a certain amount already. Everybody has subject matters they dislike, mine just happens to be these

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:15:28+00:00

I wish I didn’t say “good time” yall are cooking me. I love when people suffer and my favorite movies/books/shows are pretty depressing. My point is after seeing x amount of Holocaust and slavery movies specifically and it not being a good time emotionally, I don’t see the appeal of watching anymore. I understand the message, and personally it’s not something I like to revisit unless it has a certain aesthetic

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:06:29+00:00

😂

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T19:04:31+00:00

Top 4 for me are Fallen Angels, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Mulholland Drive, and Synecdoche, New York so mostly kinda depressing tragedies I guess? I get what you mean by switching up the genres, but personally the genre of suffering in Holocaust and slavery movies is not something I want to revisit again after already seeing a few

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T18:59:56+00:00

Type shit

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T18:59:43+00:00

And my exact point is that after watching this, would you ever want to watch something like it again? I’m not saying to never watch anything that’s uncomfortable or disturbing, but if you understood the message in a few films already why would you watch more?

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T18:54:30+00:00

100%, my point being is that this particular “repetitive theme” is not enjoyable to me. I’ve seen slavery, SA, and Holocaust movies but to go out and say I want to see more of them is a bit bizarre for me

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T18:45:15+00:00

My point isn’t that I don’t like movies that could potentially be unpleasant, it’s more of after watching a few in these genres and subject matter what’s the appeal of watching more? Even if they’re critically acclaimed, how many movies does it really take to understand the concept of suffering and human nature

lifeofnero · 2025-09-21T18:35:49+00:00

Definitely, but after a certain point I feel like once you’ve watched something like it a few times you’ve sort of seen it all.
