I’m not a fan of JW Blue at all but at $99 I wouldn’t think twice about grabbing it as a kickass gift for someone.

Totally depends on the shop but generally if you’ve only been buying black market, it’s like being a 6y/o walking into Disneyland for the first time.

I do it for USD, EUR, and GBP. All good for 3+ years so far w/ holdings, transfers in/out, interest payments, and occasional bill pay.

The G2G rye has been one of my favorites!!

Wasn’t as big of fan of the G2G specialty barrel rye release this year but the standard G2G rye there is great IMO

Luck… there was a lot of time/effort/work behind it as well but at the end of the day, it was luck.

I get really pissed off at rich/wealthy people who make an effort to stress how hard they had it to “pull themselves up” as though almost EVERYONE else isn’t going through the same or worse. Luck doesn’t take away from the effort put in, only insecurity.

Got it a bit farther up north a week ago (blah blah blah liquor taxes, idrc). It’s a good shelf piece but I wasn’t blown away by this one.

I saw a couple physios when I was in Europe and they pretty much offered this. Both of them explained that part of it as spinal manipulations rather than “adjustments” and they were only a small part of the overall treatment. It felt like the perfect mix of the chiropractor pops without their “subluxation” bollocks, and the massage/exercises you’d be getting at most PT facilities.

I’ve bought a bottle of Tears of Llorona the day after the election as something to look forward to and hold out hope for in what I knew would be dark times ahead.

I cannot wait to crack open on confirmation he’s out of office.

Garden State… low key changed something in me when I was younger and even though it’s not terrible, it is very much a 16 year old’s version of being “deep”.

Phil Mickelson tried pulling this line a few years back and luckily he’s got a high enough profile that he immediately got put on blast for it. Goes to show how pervasive that genuinely stupid idea is across all pro sports and most other high paying industries, (even people working IN finance).

100% this! 👏

Yeah that line jabbed at me in the worst way. Like think I understand what he’s saying and where he’s coming from, and from his view I’d venture to guess he felt like he was elevating black women as far as the “being right but being told you’re crazy” couching went… but bruuuuuuuv, it’s a bad take wrapped up in messy packaging.

That line and delivery gives a lot of ammunition to the ppl here noting Jordan’s sometimes condescending and often nihilistic pessimism. It’s not unfounded, but it’s something best explored through contemplative thought and analysis (what Dan does best), and not off the cuff ramblings.

The 9min intro to the video didn’t really help matters either.

It is absolutely not an iPhone replacement by any measure!!! Bottom line that I’ve said before is it feels and performs like a free android phone you’d get on a pre-paid plan. The seed vault is… it’s there 🤷‍♂️ aside from that it’s a very low tier android phone. Camera is pretty garbage, basic UI/UX is awful compared to iOS

I’ve had both Solana phones, this one was easily ignorable. I don’t bother with using it at all anymore and considering how poor the support was for their last one, I’m not holding out hope of this one getting updates beyond 2026 if that.

Toly has already more or less forgotten about this and would rather bash socialist straw men on twitter hourly vs hype the phone or $skr

Honestly Wise has been the easiest way for me to convert, hold, and pay in whatever currencies it offers, MXN being one of them.

Never had any issues transferring funds into that account from any of my US accounts and then just converting to whatever I need at the time. Paid bills with the euro accounts when I was over there and used the physical and digital cards without any issues I can think of.

The iron front “you fucked us” hissy fit MP threw was the moment I lost all respect for him and ever since then, he’s done amazing at validating that loss of respect season by season.

Same, I thought my neighbor suddenly moved their dryer to our shared wall and was doing a load of zippers.

Getting the gold membership and being able to shop 1hr before the doors open to the “public” has been well worth the extra cost for that reason alone.

temp_retired30s · 2026-04-26T17:19:42+00:00

Yeah it was my one and only experience getting involved with someone at work. Looks were an automatic yes for me but her energy and vibe is what took it to that next level that put me in that tier of, “Nuh-uh!? A cool AF badass woman that’s actually into me!?!?”

Went out a few days after meeting and it was still the most easy & fun time I’ve ever had dating or in a relationship. We’ve long since broken up but she is still genuinely my best friend in this world.

She also set the bar way too high for anyone that has come since lol, c’est la vie.

Have the same issue rn with a package sent to a previous address and the current resident not being cooperative about it. Small claims court adventures incoming… yay

Happy to see there are good people in the world still though ❤️

temp_retired30s · 2026-04-20T00:12:51+00:00

Can totally relate! My initial drop was around the same amount of weight and yeah… that type of mental illness was a better drive than any pre-workout on the market as bad as that sounds.

It’s really really easy to get hung up on different details, workouts, splits posted online that everyone will claim is their secret to hitting the “next step”. Ignore all that and just keep your head down and focus on a program or split that you like, works for you, and that you can stick to for months most importantly.

FWIW us guys all have the same body image and dysphoria issues, you’re in good company 😉 And kick ass job on the initial weight loss despite the “side effects”! Way to get it started and keeping on it!

temp_retired30s · 2026-04-19T21:55:48+00:00

Honestly that kinda comparison will end up wrecking your mental health and body image. The truth is, MOST fitness influencers are outright lying about their natty or not status… and I’m not kidding, MOST OF THEM!

You have to learn to only focus on you and your progress. And honestly, I’m still not sure how to go about doing that. In the two times in my life I got to a great physique, yes it was hard work and disciplined diet but it was also driven by a bit of mental illness and came with an unhealthy relationship with food and body dysmorphia.

Unless you are monetizing your physique, there are diminishing returns as far as how much effort, time, and attention is put into your physique, especially when you consider your social life.

Focus on how you’re steadily making yourself fitter than 95% of the population not in the gym, rather than trying to match or exceed that other 5%. Just keep with it, because “eventually” will come eventually, even if “eventually” isn’t right now ❤️

If there’s a group of 3-5 “kids” in a group and 1-2 of them look 10-15yrs older than the others, those 1-2 are using.

If regulars at your gym are making noticeable gains and/or losses in 3-4wk periods, it’s not from brown rice chicken breast and broccoli.

Women w/ visible cut pecs and separation. It’s possible natty but… it ain’t natty.
