The concept of having $20MM in my lifetime, never mind actually spending that much annually, is insane.

Jesus Christ.

Whoa! This sounds rad.

I really enjoy the Wisecrack YouTube channel for my philosophy phix.

My b-hole winked when I read this.

Be careful around popcorn kernels when you’ve got an old filling.

…but rather a malevolent whisper from the abyss. It beckoned me toward an abyssal abyss…

This is poetry.

I can’t decipher what the original story was.

I don’t know what to do. I’m in my 40s, making good money, but I can’t stay here. Worried that I’ll leave for another hellscape. Don’t trust my own judgement anymore.

Kind of want to start my own thing but that’s a whole other level of scary.

742 days. I hate this new job way more than my old one. :-(

This is the answer. Confirmed.

Some of the few books that had me laughing out loud.

Extremely interesting. She’s really into Asian food (Vietnamese and Filipino) but has a natural talent for Tex Mex and soul-ish food. Thanks for the response!

She would do that. She’s twisted.

This is encouraging. Thing is, she’s on the spectrum. I could see that working in her favor or becoming something unmanageable. So far she is the star pupil according to chef and if she could just complete a two year program and feel good about that accomplishment, my heart would be swole.

Even if she walked away from it in a few years, if she took away half of the positives you did I would consider it a win.

Thanks, dude!

Yeah, I’ve put a bug in her ear about some of the niche job paths. Private chef, test kitchens, etc. would love to see her win the lottery with something lush but know that is not to be expected. Thanks for your response!
