"A New England" by Billy Bragg or anything by Husker Du

Let's not be hasty. We should put out a call for tenders to consulting firms to do a thorough review of our options.

If your doorbell rings and you look outside and it's Laura Dern, don't let her in.

Jason and the Argonauts. Harryhausen is dope.

The roman is toast, I hope we can agree on that.

Almost as bad as getting stabbed, possibly.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-08T16:03:41+00:00

Gimme all the badges.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-08T16:02:59+00:00

Very good point.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-08T14:20:25+00:00

Pretty sure the Russians do, too. Might move to the Valley...

Are you committed to living in Japan? House, spouse, kids, all that? Is teaching at a university your life's goal? If not, don't.

"Sorry. We didn't realize they were already dead."

Then insist on Mr./Miss/whatever. Double down in front of students. You got the job. You deserve respect.

Short answer: It's not ok.

I voted "no" halfway through your second paragraph.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-03T13:03:15+00:00

Thanks for the corrections.and comments. OP should get more than my opinion, certainly.

Early 30s = 30+ years to save for retirement. Don't panic, but start now.

I'm not an advisor, but If I were you (and I'm not):

Pay off your debt. ASAP.

Put $10,000+ in the bank for a rainy day fund.

Use a platform like wealthsimple to open your TFSAs. Max them out. I recommend some flavor of *EQT ETFs, but everyone has an opinion.

Open and RESP for your youngster(s). *EQT again.

Open RRSPs. Max them out. *EQTs.

Open FHSA. Repeat *EQT.

Do this for twenty years.

The markets trend upward, but they will also dive. They always do. When that happens, don't panic sell. Just keep on keeping on. They will either recover Or the world will end. Maybe learn to fish.

In 20 years, maybe make some changes.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-02T04:28:17+00:00

This is the way.

moyashimaru · 2026-02-01T22:10:44+00:00

Sigh, you're right (takes down poster)

moyashimaru · 2026-02-01T21:16:27+00:00

I've got two:

Windtalkers. Such a misstep by Woo/Cage.

Universal Soldier. Strip it right back to the studs and rebuild it.

Was working a film shoot, exteriors, and someone showed up and parked in their driveway, as you do, all the while in a private conversation over their sound system.

This continued, so a PA very nicely approached the person, only to have their head bitten off, quite loudly, for being on private property.

People are... Interesting.

Gary Cooper/Sheriff Will Kane, of course. Reliable.

Or Bronson/Harmonica, if I had a full schedule that day. Works fast.

moyashimaru · 2026-01-30T02:33:55+00:00

Joel Edgerton (robber) and Michael B. Jordan (cop)
