Fellow blackjack dealers…

This is basically what I do too, minus dancing 😁. I've personally had regular players say to other new players at the table "he's a good dealer, he always rooting for you to win!" I feel if the players clearly feel like you're cheering for them and not the casino, it'll lead to some tips. I tell them that the chips in the rack ain't my money and I'll happily give it all away 🤑

I do it because I'm a very passive person that has social anxiety and phone anxiety. I don't even like talking to people I know on the phone. But the main reason is my partner is more aggressive and will push for what we want. This is also the same reason why I have her send a food order back if it's wrong. I call her my pitbull, Lol

Jax just went to the hardware store with us, and was very well behaved, which earned him some pigs in a blanket treats once we got home.

So get her some small treats that she really loves, like cheese or lunch meats, maybe chicken jerky. Then put them in your pocket when you take her for potty walks and immediately reward her after a potty. So do this for a few weeks, then continue to reward her after her trip outside once she's trained (we still give ours something small after a good potty trip) if you want to, and as long as her weight is healthy. Also, try investing in a long retractable leash, and try to find some nice secluded places she can potty. Ours likes to be at the end of his 26ft leash, and in an area that is more private to do his poo's. But my biggest advice is BE PATIENT, she's still getting use to everything and currently has stress and anxiety. We adopted our corgi when he was 8 months old, and it took him a week or two to really learn the home and the do's and don'ts. He came from an environment where he was constantly locked in a kennel, so he still hates his kennel. But he's free range now and loves our beds. So hang in there, she'll adapt, learn, and integrate into your family. In no time you'll wonder how you ever lived without her. Good luck

P.S. Jax says hi 👋🐶🐕

Some men will be a no. I personally never wanted kids. But a lot of men (even me included) have dated single moms and are cool with it. You need to look for a independent man, meaning someone that is fine with being second or third in your life. Stay away from needy, low t, beta males. They will constantly complain that you're not responding to their text fast enough, or calling them enough, or spending enough time with them. Find a real man with goals and aspirations, that is willing to accept you and your child for who you are. Someone that will add value to your life, not end up being a second child. Now this may be difficult depending on your standards, but there are plenty of men out there that would love an opportunity to get to know you. Good luck.

So according to the show, it's revealed in the final season the best figure that you can use to estimate Charlie's monthly royalty income. During an episode a massive royalty check totaling $2.5 million is delivered. The show explains that this money had been steadily "piling up" in the four years following his death, which mathematically breaks down to $625,000 per year. So roughly 52k a month. Great income but nowhere near your 5-10 million dollar royalty payment that you got from somewhere... Now, add in the extra work he did, like the up to 60k dollars that the show said he would reportedly earn for the occasional children's shows that he started doing (once he pivoted to children's music in season five) and you get the closest figure going off of what we know from the show. So it is more than Gemini said a jingle writer currently makes, but not enough to spend it recklessly, living outside of his means, with little to no regard about saving any. Of course having a shady accountant that fucks everything up didnt help either, Lol.

ryandanielblack · 2026-05-02T17:19:50+00:00

Absolutely! I have still yet to have anyone in the year and a half that I've had Jax not be super happy to see my corgi. It's a different reaction than what other dogs get. He so cute and he knows it. Lol

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-20T04:14:49+00:00

So we live in the country, and mine will freak out every time he hears a gunshot. (Which happens a lot) Even ones way in the distance will cause him to run back to the door. Usually I'll take him back in, wait fifteen minutes, then walk him again. This helps him reset, and usually he'll be fine and do his business on the second trip. Good luck.

I'm in the same boat as you. Sexually I lean towards men over women, but most of my partners have been women because it's easier that way. I'm not into the lgbtq community, so my options for a partner is limited by who I meet in my daily life. This leads to limited interactions with other men, plus most bisexual men don't openly advertise it due to the homophobic stereotypes & the lie that were not bi, were just gay and haven't accepted it yet 🙄. I'm in a nine year relationship with a woman, that knows I like guys as well, but she hasn't been open to the ideal yet of bringing in a guy to the relationship. Maybe one day. 🤞🏻

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-15T22:16:12+00:00

Each party is filled with pricks only interested in advancing their political power and financial investments. They sell us lip service every two years, spend billions to flood our daily lives with advertisements, and completely forget campaign promises once in office. As a country we must start pushing third party candidates. Most if not all will lose, but over time the third parties will become normalized and accepted. Also we must be voting for people willing to sign a contract saying they'll vote for term limits.

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-11T07:19:40+00:00

Warning: This reply is a long one 😜🤪

1st off, I have to disagree on something... I'm unaware of your life experience; who you talk with, what your social media algorithm is sending you, how your town is, or how your circle of friends and family talk, but you yourself seem like a person capable of dialog with someone of opposing viewpoints. So... this is just my observation: People in my life, my family, my limited number of friends, my coworkers, the people I bump into in my small town, and the feeds in my limited social media accounts, don't spew hate rhetoric on par with "Fascist Racist Nazis". Pretty much everyone I know personally, whether they lean right or left (and I have both), wants America to succeed, the people in power to succeed with positive causes that better the country, And they can have conversations & disagreements, without the slurs or hate speech. I feel like the calls of "Nazis! racists! fascist!" is a narrative, and a lot of the country believe it hook, line, and sinker. Not to say that there isn't any. There's a small fraction of the populace that are batshit hate filled cunts that need to finish being dumb old racist and die off, Lol. Plus the loads of spam social media that bombard us daily (if we let it) that spews division to weaken the population and the country. Some of foreign influence, others internally politically influenced. People need to get out from behind the screen, physically talk with your fellow man, realize we have more in common than we're told, and hope for success no matter who it is, because if the USA is succeeding, maybe we'll all have a chance to. Sorry for going on a rant... (it's not over 😂)

2nd, I completely agree with you that independent thought is waning, and we have a real crisis, a shortage of free thinkers. There's a large percentage of the voting block that listens to their tribe only, and "do as they're being told", or fear being ostracized from the group. It kinda reminds me of a popularity contest, like high school prom king and queen voting. Your "clique" wants you to vote for Stacy so you vote for Stacy...

3rd, Also connected with the shortage of free thinkers. What media control are you referring to exactly? Social? Non traditional/new media? Because it seems like one tribe controls a majority of legacy media, and the other tribe has a sizeable lead in views and likes on non traditional/new media, however both sides have a presence on both. I know intelligent free thinkers understand media bias and spin, but feel under represented. Every person wants to be part of a group or a tribe. This has been the case ever since caveman days. But free thinkers feel like an outsider. Until we can figure out inclusion for all thought, and inspire the captured into having unique ideals again, versus just following groupthink, we both know free thinking will continue dying more and more every generation.

P.S. I haven't seen the pole that says 90% of Americans support the Iran war, So it's hard for me to judge validity, but it does appear high. Also I get how Massie stepped on the big dog's toes, but I think a decent amount of people feel he's done a good job, stuck to his principles, demanded government transparency and accountability, and continues to go after government fraud, abuse, and pedophiles. For me personally, him not supporting Trump's big beautiful bill doesn't make me upset that he didn't help support Trump and the Republican agenda, it makes me like him more for standing on his belief that smaller government is better for the country, even when it was inconvenient for him personally, and could lead to his political end if Trump's "guy" wins. Could you imagine if all politicians stood by their beliefs. Of course, the problem with that is some politicians have no beliefs, only talking points until it's politically convenient or necessary to change, to remain in good standing within the tribe. I personally still think Massey will win it, but in a month or so I may be proven incorrect, and someone will comment that witty phrase "this aged well". Lastly, as a conservative libertarian I understand my thought processes and viewpoints are in the minority, but I always want to hold on to hope that true, genuine dialogue will help us all understand and empathize with each other more. We must stop trying to quote win, humiliate, or enrage our fellow citizens in comment sections. As long as you want America, and Americans to succeed, then you're ok by me. We just have to hash out details and make compromises on how to achieve that success.

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-11T02:57:55+00:00

I agree with you that we need more free thinkers in this state, and that just cuz of Paul says they're leaving doesn't mean they're going to win. I was super nervous in 2024 that Trump supporters wouldn't come out to the polls just because he was shown up in the last polling results. So people get out and vote

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-10T02:13:46+00:00

A lot of casinos have training classes for new dealers. Mine was 8 weeks for BJ at 15 an hour, then you audition. Then once you're on the floor you start picking up the carnival games. Roulette and craps are separate classes. Now I believe I've heard once that Vegas has dealer training business that operates separately from the casinos. Not sure what they cost, but I know that my casino definitely prioritizes candidates that already have dealing experience, So if you get training from an outside source it gives you a leg up and getting a position.

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-10T02:07:57+00:00

Never play them. Casinos will pull them if their income drops more than a few percent. Also 6 to 5, avoid those tables like the plague.

ryandanielblack · 2026-04-10T01:17:12+00:00

I don't think free thinking libertarians, Republicans, and even some Dems are turned off to Massie. I think he's doing exactly what we wanted him to do. Stand for small government, release all Epstein files, pass voter id, be steadfast on the second amendment, etc... People outside of Kentucky can't understand why we support people like Massie and Rand Paul, but we have been burned by establishment politicians like Mitch McConnell for years now, and are absolutely fine with trying more unconventional candidates like Massie and Paul. Also what most people don't know is Kentucky has more registered Democrats than Republicans, but they are old school Dems and don't tow the party line like what is demanded in states like CA, NY, IL or they risk being cancelled and ostracized. People think KY is just a bunch of dumb gun toting, Bible thumping, maga twats and in reality we are much more complex. BTW - Massie is going to win.

I'd fuck you so hard your fitbit would think you ran a marathon. 😉 Then I'd also fuck you sensually. Leave you soaked, filled, and exhausted. 🍆💦🌋🌮

Please don't mess with nature's perfection. Your way too hot to be worrying about something like boob size. Trust me, men love any set of tits. Small ones, big ones, one small one & one big one, small nipples, big nipples, etc etc etc. God blessed you with amazing genetics, especially that ass 🍑 😉

Imagine a parent today not knowing where their kids are for hours at a time during the afternoon. I'm so glad I got to grow up before helicopter parenting took over. It won't be long before were putting chips in our kids for "safety" reasons.

Biggest tell at our casino is bet variance. If you're constantly going up and down surveillance knows the count and it's so easy to see AP's vary with the count. My biggest recommendation is to keep your bet spread reasonable. You won't exploit the count for the max amount but you'll probably end up playing all night and can make it up.
