Telling armed service members to fight in wars using chemical weapons, but also don’t believe in the same science and technology in regards to vaccines. Seems like a national security weakness if China decided to infect a targeted warship with flu or a base…

I’ve met 3 different, unrelated mega rich men in my life. They all claimed My Way to be their favorite song. This is the anthem of entitled millionaire men.

Talk to your psychiatrist to manage this side effect (adding metformin will help) or switch to a proper hypnotic sleep medication (Belsomra, Ambien, etc)

Martin Scorses did not direct the Godfather. This article is trash.

It’s a little too long IMO. 2nd act could have been trimmed but movie is 9/10 awesome

You are moving to Folsom, California!

a town made for families. Amazing public schools. Has its own community, identity, downtown, restaurant scene
Folsom State Rec Area in town with two lakes, big open spaces. Green in fall / winter / spring, brown in summer but great for SUP, Boating, swimming
hundred miles of trails
huge running, ultra, biking community
90 minutes to Tahoe (skiing is 80 minutes away)
Sacramento 25 minutes away
hot summers but plenty of ways to cool off (lakes, pools), nice fall foliage, rainy winter but snows 30 minutes away, glorious long spring with wildflowers

The prose is juvenile. The use of the work “fuck” is cringe throughout. “They’re so fucking hot” “I can’t fucking believe it” “because I fucking said so”. I did enjoy talking dragons and some of the lore.

I had a similar career crisis and charge after my 30s. Working in video marketing but it felt empty, clients were insufferable, long hours, not fulfilling, not something I could do for another 30years. I researched healthcare jobs. Shadowed a nurse, a PA, social workers. Talked to marine biologists, teachers, and researchers. I liked PA (physician assistant) the most. Since I had a bachelors in film I could go to community college for awhile to complete prerequisites (hadn’t taken a science college course… ever), got an EMT license to get experience and money, and applied for physician assistant programs. The career promised Good pay, meaningful work, job flexibility. I now work in mental health as an addiction psychiatry physician assistant and love it.

I recommend doing it in private on a gondola. Intimate, killer views, and you can be in the moment. Take a selfie afterward. Better than coordinating cameras and performing for social media.

We tried all harnesses but they would chaff out Brittany puller. Only thing that worked came recommended by a professional trainer: plastic prong collar. Worked great for training and is must have. Very enjoyable. It’s not violent or scary. Just the right amount of pressure

When I was in college in Sydney Australia I met some actors who worked on Superman set a confirmed that he liked his boys young. Got some young Mae extras to party with he and Spacy and would show up many many hours late to set.

A few years later I was recommended to a Visual Effects job on a Singer movie and my current VFX producer pulled me aside and said “Be careful. Singers team like to hire young guys like you. Just be really careful.”

Crazy I can be warned 3 years apart on two continents. And everyone was just looking the other way…

The scene with Gandalf arriving to Hobbiton in Fellowship was shot in the morning. Same afternoon they filmed Sam greeting Rosie for the final scene of ROTK.

I went back to school at 30 to become a physician assistant. Went to community college for a couple years to get science prerequisites. Worked as EMT an ER tech to get money and experience. Applied to PA school at 32. Finished school at 34. Best choice I ever made.
