Fair enough, I assumed you gamed on both and stopped for PS5 because they made PSN mandatory and I somehow was unaware.

Can't justify a gaming PC when PS4 pro was pretty cheap and my gaming hours are not what they used to be

I can justify a not so new console every 5 or so years as they hit my value for money sweet spot, and reduced gaming hours due to life

But the upfront cost for a decent rig to replace consoles entirely is not what I want to use my money for (for now!)

Can't wait to finally make the jump though!

Damn, if I didn't know any better, the teamsters union hate the idea of being led by a woman.

Unless Kamala has a teamsters specific, anti-union agenda completely unique from Joe Biden I'm not aware of?

I'd love to be proven wrong, but Trump has only gotten worse and Kamala is significantly better than Biden - so what's up??

I've had my PS4 pro for years and never had paid PSN, is it required for PS5?

Or just for online play, which I do not care for

I've always done protein powder first, then add liquid and doing it the other way around sounds like blasphemy.

Never get any clumps either!

Dry powder on top of a liquid is pure insanity, next you'll tell me you add milk to a bowl of cereal before the cereal

But from there, there is actually much debate about which order of combining is best. Some say that adding dry into wet leads to clumps of dry ingredients floating in the batter, while others say that actually the opposite, adding wet to dry, leads to, well, clumps.

It would appear that the jury is still out, and everyone despises clumps. But one thing is definitely true: It's much harder to successfully add dry ingredients into wet ingredients neatly. That order tends to lead to a giant puff of flour wafting toward the ceiling, and settling all over the counters, while a steady, viscous stream of wet ingredients will instead narrowly ribbon its way down into the bowl containing dry ingredients, and nowhere else.

Fuck John McEntee and anyone who had anything to do with project 2025

Insane how we're forced to be distracted with news media focusing on lies about immigrants eating pets instead of hammering Republicans about project 2025.

They are 100% full steam ahead, end running on all fronts relentlessly as we speak.

Weird how Ohio is into it, since he's their guy and all.

1/3 of people get forced to eat shit because 1/3 of people want everyone but themselves to have to eat shit because they wrongly think they will never have to eat the shit they are voting to have literally everyone eat.

Worst of all, 1/3 of people like having their head in the sand, being unable to develop an opinion on if being force fed shit is good or bad.

Completely depends on the shrooms. Like 100%.

I recommend 1 gram increments every hour if you've never tried the bag before. Once you know how strong they are, you'll know how much you need for the trip you want.

I've taken 3.5 grams and been fully in control with minimal visual and the biggest experience was mild time dilation.

I've taken 2 grams and been unable to use my phone because the screen looks bottomless for several hours, and I'm barely keeping whole thoughts processing.

Blindly advising someone you don't know to munch 7 grams of random shrooms is a terrible idea. You are correct that anxiety meds can blunt shrooms, but even then 7g is a massive dose.

Although this story isn't related, I've been trying to get the name JD Vance changed online to "Joy Division Vance" given his views on women.

The future Joy Division Vance sees for American Women

In World War II, Nazi Germany established brothels in the concentration camps (Lagerbordell or Freudenabteilungen "Joy Divisions") to increase productivity among inmates, although these institutions were used mostly by Kapos, "prisoner functionaries" and the criminal element, because regular inmates, penniless and emaciated, were usually too debilitated and wary of exposure to Schutzstaffel (SS) schemes. In the end, the camp brothels did not produce any noticeable increase in the prisoners' productivity levels, but instead, created a market for coupons among the camp VIPs.[1]

The women forced into these brothels came mainly from the women-only Ravensbrück concentration camp,[2] except for Auschwitz, which used its own prisoners.[3] In combination with the German military brothels in World War II, it is estimated that at least 34,140 female inmates were forced into sexual slavery during the Third Reich.[3]

Joy Division Vance will personally do everything he can to make sure that women's existence is for the exclusive civic purpose of brood mare sex slavery.

Fun fact, every Curry on earth smells infinitely better than the aroma of Diaper Don balls deep in McDonald's Hamberder.

Depending on which side of the bridge you're on when the bombs start dropping, maybe no that far.

Getting trapped behind enemy lines because they sunk the bridge doesn't sound fun. Plus those trees provide some cover.

On top of that, there's a good chance of being executed if you leave the group.

Just because you can accurately attack someone's integrity in an exposing and indefensible way doesn't mean you'll change anyone's mind who doesn't care.

I'm sure the golden diaper wearing mental health crisis voting bloc is one Trump attack ad away from revelation tho

Kinda silly to expect an "Ah-ha!" moment for more than a small handful of people this late in the game

Elon being creepy to TSwizz probably did more to help Dems than anything Trump could do to negatively affect Republican votes

 

So my parents got scammed last night, fraud case is open but it's likely not gonna go anywhere and they'll be out 10K - they know better and now they really know better, and I'm hoping to get some advice on a repayment strategy.

They absolutely don't have that kind of money and repayment will take a while.

Plan one is just put it on the mortgage, but they're currently locked in at a lower rate for 2 more years, so adjusting that isn't ideal if it changes the rate. If not, adding 10K to mortgage is no brainer.

Line of credit does carry lower interests, but it will accrue daily, credit cards are high interest, but interest is racked up monthly.

Would it be possible/smart (assuming +10K credit card capacity) to move LoC debt to the credit card for 25 ish days a month to avoid daily LoC interest, and then send the debt back to LoC for 5ish days (transfer time) and have the credit card at $0 at the end of every month? No credit card interest and far less days for LoC debt to accrue interest?

Obviously there is risk in not having the credit card paid off in time, but would this strategy be viable if properly executed?
