In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer, The Times found when it compared his results with detailed information the I.R.S. compiles on an annual sampling of high-income earners.

D2 is back in the office this week. He, NG1, and NG2 are scheduled for training Tu-Th. Finally, FINALLY! He's going to learn his first lessons about the new software, right? He gets in this morning, looks at his computer, and says aloud, "Awww, man. You've got to be kidding me. Murphy's law." He was acting like something came up that he was going to have to help out with rather than go to the training. He 100% tried to get out of it! I didn't hear anything that happened after that, but he's in there. So, apparently GG made him go.

Maybe dax thinks Clinton didn't obstruct either.

For anyone else curious, $15B would make someone the 80th richest person in the entire world.

“Each of us believes that the conduct of President Trump described in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would, in the case of any other person not covered by the Office of Legal Counsel policy against indicting a sitting President, result in multiple felony charges for obstruction of justice,” the former federal prosecutors wrote.

“We emphasize that these are not matters of close professional judgment,” they added. “Of course, there are potential defenses or arguments that could be raised in response to an indictment of the nature we describe here. .?.?. But, to look at these facts and say that a prosecutor could not probably sustain a conviction for obstruction of justice — the standard set out in Principles of Federal Prosecution — runs counter to logic and our experience.”

The NRA is amazing at finding the absolute worst human beings and hiring them.

Captain Marvel in Endgame probably helps to illustrate this awesome observation by me.

DC characters are just way, way more rough ridin' powerful. I mean, Superman alone could probably whip all of the Avengers asses at the same time. The Avengers are pretty much just humans in special little suits. Superman is rough ridin' indestructible, has super strength, super speed, can rough ridin' fly, shoots lasers that can destroy anything out of his rough ridin' eyes. And then you have these other supernatural bad motherfuckers like Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter. It's just no contest, really.

Maybe it would have been better if they just had Captain Marvel come in at the end and save the day rather than be like, "y'all, I'm just too busy" for the whole movie.

This is so funny because it's so spot on.

She is kinda cool! And kinda stupid. And kinda opinionated. Perfect for Joe Rogan.

Around five years ago, I picked five different types of mutual funds for one of my retirement accounts. It's impossible not to notice that one of them is really, REALLY lagging behind the other four. It's meant to be a long term investment, of course, but should I go ahead and dump it anyway because it seems like such a loser "lately?"

Since 2002 +8%
10 year +8%
5 year -1%
1 year -10%

Is it an international fund?

Yep

lame ass cap, hawkeye, and widow. I don't care at all about any of those losers. Strange, all of gotg, Spiderman, black panther.... All in it for like 15 minutes at the end.

I never in my life thought I'd ever see so much Nebula. And she's pretty damn boring!

I didn't even attempt to think about the time travel stuff because of the effort that would be required. Just went along with it.

Loved Lebowski Thor very much. Lol at that big rock dude hanging at his house playing Fortnite. GOTG are my favorite. Just funny. So, I'm really hoping their next movie has lots of Thor. The Starlord/Thor stuff cracks me up. Lol knife fight.

Celebrity oscar/Hulk was funny. And then Rudd asking the kids if they wanted a pic with Antman. Lol.

Overall, really enjoyable!

Performance for each of the five mutual funds looks about the same for 10+ years, so maybe I just answered my own question.
