If you got a million dollars today, would you retire?
What would you do for the foreseeable future?- Retire? Yeah right. That’s like 5 years of expenses max. I’d try to make more money from it for the future.monospaced
- Coincidentally, I purchased a lottery ticket today, which is incredibly rare for me to do.monospaced
- I would. Would stop computer work and paint more in a studio, make prints, paint murals while my body can still do it.PhanLo
- I would blow it all on hookers & cocaine.utopian

- One million with the current inflation wouldn't even give us enough to buy potatoes in ten years...If you tell me 10M...we could talk;)OBBTKN
- yep, would quit my day job and do creative gigs, odd jobs & gardening but could live just off the interest from 1m + pension i recon.kingsteven
- a million would pay off what mortgage I have remaining, I'd switch to part time work, and maybe some do some dividend investing with the balance. get paid 4eva.BuddhaHat

I was on my way to buy meat to celebrate my birthday and my sister just called me, telling me that she just lost her job, 47yo with 2 kids.
Surely she'll find something better, but now is not usually a good time to find work and we're already starting to get old...

So I got these huge birds (chachalaca) that have been visiting me at the back patio of my house down here in Mexico so I've been leaving out a bowl of water for them to drink. 1 bird comes around more than the others, I named him "Mr. Pickles"
My downstairs neighbors wife I call "the witch" asked me to start shooing them away because they crap in their yard (she's the bitchiest old white person I've ever had to deal with in my entire life).
So just now I put out a bowl of grapes for them to eat so they could shit even more.

Influenza A just fucking crushed me for the last 13 days.. legit broken.. 9 days of fever, 20-22 hours a day in bed, fever dreams and utter immune system collapse..
antibiotics for a secondary infection and cortisone to assist with coughing so bad that blood was common .. and 3 days later i am finally back at work.
utterly fucking worked.
- damn!HAL9001
- Fuck man, I remember back in SF I had 3 weeks like that, coughing up blood, scary shit, glad your good now, rest up!YakuZoku

My Multipla has passed its annual inspection, no problems, the mechanic told me that it was in very good condition, for being so old...
The good thing came when I had to jump start a Honda that was in line. "Thank goodness there was a Fiat nearby," I told him... LMAO

Its a "Till death" contractHAL9001 - Absolutely. He's awesome and he's home now. If you read his surrender forms, you would grab a stabbing fork and find his former owner. Disgusting.garbage

Very good friend for years—over 20. He's an icon in the rock/punk culture in Uruguay. His band is very well-known across Latin America, and while I don't want to directly connect his art with this post, I will share some of his music later. Async.
This guy has always been an icon of the Uruguayan punk subculture. We've always been close friends and nothing more. He's a great person—sincere, profound, and trustworthy.
From one day to the next, I started receiving dozens of messages on Instagram—posts, direct messages, all sorts of things. It turns out he was accused of sexual assault. A girl he was dating reported him, and he immediately lost his job.
I called him, upset and angry. "What did you do, fucking shithead?" ... "Maqui, I was having sex with this girl. Suddenly she pushed me and kicked me in the neck, started yelling 'this is wrong, this is wrong,' and ran away. I haven't slept in three days."
This guy is having the worst days of his life right now. I trust him.. I mean, I KNOW him. What the fuck?! This is so much worse than I could ever imagine for someone this close to me.

I just had an gelato affogato* (espresso with vanilla ice cream) prepared at home... and it is incredible.
I don't like coffee and I'm not into sweets, but this brew is bearable.
*Inspired by Erik Spiekermann, apparently he takes it daily.
- I love both ice cream and coffee. I get this when the family is getting ice cream and I want to be "reasonable".palimpsest
- serving as a flaming affogato with rum on the espresso adds a bit of urgency to proceedings, and rumkingsteven
- ^ I like where your head's at.Continuity
- you're a king... steven!OBBTKN
- So you like affogato? Actually it turns out you do like coffee and are into sweetsnb
- Q: Do you know what that dish is called, the one with the icecream and espresso?
A: Dunno ... affogato ...skinny_puppy - LOLpalimpsest
- lol, it's the classic Italian ice cream float. There's a brand that makes the same flavor, but it's nothing without the heat.garbage
- flol @ pups!Continuity
- @nb: No, it's not that I like it... I haven't had coffee for 5 months (because I associated it with smoking) and I try not to drink added sugar in anything...OBBTKN
- It's all Erik's fault because there was a tub of my daughter's vanilla ice cream in the freezer :(OBBTKN
- Not gonna lie, that's the funniest and design-iest way to fall off the wagon.garbage
- Soon you'll be chain smoking with a vanilla-stained face, daughter crying in the background.garbage
- Well, fuck, now I need to try one, too. I haven't yet. Preferably with rum.Continuity
- its gansta with vanilla gelato too. got to be top shelf though, cheapo will mutate into international delight thus leaving a hint of coffee.dibec

It's "Ory-gun", not "Oh-ree-gon". It's a thing that's stupid, but head's up.garbage - Brookings is beautiful. Tons of radical beaches just north (Natural Bridges). <br> Walker Road, Stout Grove, Jedediah Park, Smith River = All Redwood Bliss.dibec
- O! Yeah, Crescent city ... nice beach off s. pebble drive and leads into Point St. George. Fern Canyon is super rad (long drive). Rest is kinda ...dibec
