I’m this person and I often get misunderstood. I can be the center of a room and I’m loud not quiet. People attribute this with being an extrovert. I am absolutely not, I am an introvert. It’s draining for me to be front and center but I don’t mind doing it. I recharge by being alone. I have to explain this to folks often.

In my mind, it’s a best of both worlds being able to do both. But the introvert/extrovert is about how you gain energy, not whether you are shy or center of attention.

They changed it a few years back to default to the Lifecycle fund which matches your retirement date.

The Baja Blast commercial with Seal as a seal was pretty great.

I’m not gonna link to the “other site” but the post starts with “Congrats, you won the lottery. You’re fucked.”

Great resource of no nonsense advice. I’m sure it’s copied elsewhere.

I was probably was able to set up more effective filters as things coalesced onto that instance then I guess after reviewing my filter list. I’ve got community blocks as well. I’d prefer to block communities, not instances. No reason to miss out on interacting with folks just cause they’re into different things than I am necessarily.

Good to know. Is pawb.social the instance to block now then to achieve the same goal?

I blocked yiffit.net pretty early on, so I guess that? I’m not interested in the content they post, so it was easier to block the entire instance rather than each random furry porn community that would pop up onto c/all. No shame or anything against them though, just not my thing.

The short answer is no, undocumented immigrants can’t join the US military.

Quoting from the US Army recruiter FAQ:

Can non-U.S. citizens join the Army?

Enlistment into any branch of the U.S. military, by citizens of countries other than the United States is limited to those foreign nationals who are legally residing in the United States and possess a Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services Alien Registration Card (INS Form I-151/551 - commonly known as a “Green Card”). Applicants must be between 17 and 35; meet the mental, moral, and physical standards for enlistment; and must speak, read and write English fluently.

Great advice. We’re fortunate enough to have completed the FIRE flowchart and are at the maximize stage of our journey.

Too young to have any real interests yet. I was considering starting swim lessons, that’s a lifelong skill.

You misspelled suicide.

Good.

On the floor next to my bed, or if I’m feeling less lazy I’ll set it on the dresser next to the bed.

Google says this documentary is on Netflix for those also curious. Haven’t logged in to verify, but maybe someone else can fact check that.

I’m currently in the process of building my first mechanical keyboard. I have a Lily58 mostly assembled, in the troubleshooting steps now. It’s been a fun project so far.

Whether or not nap happens, maybe.
