What has helped you afford housing in this market?
Stock market scams.
(Note for the obtuse: everything I have ever done in the stock market has been perfectly legal, taxed and above board according to regs and laws. But it shouldn’t be.)

What are parts of men daily life that women aren’t aware of ?
God these first few comments (at least the top ones now) are so dead on:
Women think they want that — being invisible and thus disposable — but they really, really don’t and hate it when they do get what they think they want.
Funny how life works out.

Russian “Tor-M2” SAM fires at ukrainian reconnaissance drone, misses, and later gets hit by GMLRS.
Firing a $1 million missile at a $500 drone…and missing. (The miss occurs because it’s expecting a target the size of an F-15, and that drone is about the size of large laptop or so.)
Forumation
Goddamn, I hope our military planners in the US and NATO are watching every single video in this sub-reddit.
That’s how you learn what a large part of the future of war is gonna be like. And then use that insight to make that future not suck as much for our side when we’re fighting China and Russia soon. It’s so, so much easier to learn not to do the stupid by watching other people and other countries do the stupid.
But alas it seems that most people and most countries must in fact fully do the stupid before they understand a damn thing. I’ve always done it the other way, though.
Ch Game
Yep, same here. The top or the bottom of the market? WGAF? I bought it to live in, not to make money. That’s a chump’s game as far as housing goes as once you price risk in, a house is nearly always money-losing investment versus the de facto risk premium.
No one tells you that, though — you have to figure it out yourself. And I did, luckily, before I ever bought a house. So I’m not playing the chump’s game as I am not a chump.

The first ten on today’s playlist:
Anx
Are there people out there who straight up don’t have anxiety?
I’ve never felt anxiety. I say that not knowing what it feels like, having just observed it in others and surmising that nothing like that has ever happened to me — not even the mild version. In fact, I am more comfortable in confrontation or dangerous situations than I am in calm or normal ones. (Though I do try to stay away from that type of shit these days.)
I don’t do this anymore, but I used to pretend to be anxious or nervous when I was “supposed” to be. Now I don’t bother and just be the real me.
Lifted
Are people going to laugh at me for using 10 pound weights in the gym?
No. Those kind of bro gyms from the 1970s and 1980s don’t exist anymore. If you show up at the gym, you’re already making more effort than 90% of the population and that is respected.
Show up, do your thing. No one gives a shit.
Forced
Rollerskaters use rotational forces to pull off crazy move.
If I tried that, both of us in skates would be dead, the bystanders would be dead, people in neighboring states would be dead, and somehow nuclear missiles would launch.
