You're describing retirement. And, boy have I spent a LOT of time thinking about what that looks like.

A lot of people have lists of things they'd do, see, learn, or be. I had one too, but it kept fucking changing depending on where I was in life and what my interests were.

Any list I had always felt restrictive. Here's where I ended up instead...

I would put my energy and attention only on the things that I want to put them on at any given time.

I guess some call that living in the moment, but I call it retirement.

No problem! Happy building!

Router with a round nose bit. Not sure what size bore you're aiming for, if it isn't too massive you could make short work of the carving

For some reason, I thought it was codified in...I'm not based in the US so I could very well be off about that. I guess it's too far along in the takeover for there to be any kind of practical resistance to any of this part

Did I miss something that walked back the whole 'separation of church and state' thing?? There's been so much shit flying around lately, and so many flies buzzing around carrying that shit...

The 'common' part of 'common sense'

Not just you! But it wasn't until I saw a quote from John Wayne that it registered for me...

Talk low, talk slow and don't say too much"

Hahahaha Lock it in and hit up suno.ai

If I was a Five Eyes nation, I'd be looking long and hard at reducing head count...or at least changing the name to "Four Eyes and an Asshole"

...had someone rifle balls at you, as hard as they can, off of a bat or racquet. Something about facing it down and letting your instinctual reactions take over is viscerally primal.

Say what you mean, mean what you say.

Hands down, when someone is eating while using a handheld phone. No matter how hard you try, mics are designed to pick up audio from near your mouth, you WILL sound like a face hugger from Alien

Thanks for following up and sharing this; sincerely. There's not enough of this kind of emotive sharing with Gamestop. I agree that a lot of the 'movement' borders on being cult like in the blindly following kind of way.

I touch base on reddit monthly or so to keep tabs because the same thing you find sad, I find absolutely fascinating. All the dynamics at play...from shifts in sentiment, conspiracy-style interlopers, systemic corruption to the highest levels of bureaucracy, and sometimes actual information about the mechanics lubricating the movement of stocks and money.

I've been told I'm an emotionless rock though, so it might account for our differing perspectives on how people spend money.

Talking points: That bunch of retail traders made a bad choice and ego won't allow them to bail out. That it was 'luck' for a few people a few years ago.

It may have been a bad choice for you and that's why I wonder why you posted what you did instead of your own opinion baked through your own experience. More powerful words generally come from personal experience.

I'm not here arguing with you about the stock, it being a good/bad investment isn't what I'm on about. I guess I'm more hung up on why you said what you did.

Like, what was it that compelled you to post such a banal response to this post? It's so sad that people are holding stock in a company with a ton of cash, a motivated and aligned management team, and very little debt?

Sounds like you're painting a brush and saying that any person holding Gamestop makes you sad. It's a pretty broad assertion that, honestly, feels like it has a story behind it.

Just because a few people got lucky...? My dude, instead of parroting media talking points do the reading so you know what's actually keeping folks holding the stock.
