By recipe, I don’t mean some written down rigid list on ingredients and processes, I mean more in the way of each distinct type of chili. I also have perfected my various chilis over decades and only one, my white chicken chili (which barely counts as chili IMO), has cumin in it. I am sure your chili is great, but I’d almost certainly prefer mine as I consider it perfect.
That’s interesting in that none of my chili recipes have cumin as an ingredient, so I’d say that is far from essential.
Ok, here is my tl;dr of the last part of the story from the comics. The gist is that after the snap, every remaining hero + Dr Doom do an all out attack on Thanos along with all the “cosmic” super bosses (Galactus, Chaos, Order, all sorta wacky beings) and they were going to win until Doom tried to steal the gauntlet and fucked it up. Thanos kills every hero and traps the all cosmic weirdos and then becomes the new “God” of the universe. When he does that and leaves the gauntlet sitting there, Nebula (that he had been torturing) grabs the gauntlet and tears the whole universe up and takes over. In the end, Dr Strange saves Thanos and convinces him to help fight/trick Nebula and restore the universe. I am sure I missed stuff, but it was pretty crazy. One of the more fun things I remember was Wolverine sticking his claws right into Thanos through the neck and for a sec Thanos thought he was dying until he remembered he could essentially just make himself “not dead” and then he turned Wolverines claws/bones into Play Doh.
In the comics all the snapped people were contained within the soul stone. They never mention anything like that in the MCU, so it’s just that way “because”.
Hah, came to comment this. Honestly, the comic got pretty wild, especially once Nebula got a hold of the gauntlet.
Yeah, it sucks. I was not relying on that pension as it was never going to be huge, but it was a big part of why I stayed at that company for over a decade.
I had a pension at my last job about 11 years ago. Then not long after I left with it fully vested congress passed a law allowing companies to creatively value pensions far lower than they should have been able to and most companies “bought out” the pensions for a fraction of their value. My pension got turned to mush, then a few month later congress passed a law “fixing the glitch” after most large corps had done their dirty work. My pension would have paid out about $800/month on retirement (likely not great depending on inflation), but their reassessment made it more like $150/month which probably won’t cover a phone bill when I am retired.
There goes my chance to use my data hoarding for the power of good. Well, if you think of any specific details that might help track it down let me know.
I may have them. Do you remember what you were looking for?
Saying “old enough to remember buying physical media” makes me feel like one of the ancients.
I don’t stream my music, and only did for a little bit when it was newer and fairly novel. I strongly agree with you, most people don’t listen to diverse enough music that streaming makes sense other than pure convenience. That convenience is clearly all it takes for the majority of people.

Even with a 40 hour work week, this can be how it ends up. With a 60 hour work week, I’m surprised you can even fit in the cleaning. It’s rough. I don’t many recommendations anyone else hasn’t already mentioned (try to work less hours, which may not be possible). I think you need to, somehow, try to fit in a small window of time that is just for you. Even if it means giving up a small amount of sleep. I had to do this to retain some sanity. I found that trying to prep my meals in batches saved me some time as well. I used to work 40 hours a week on paper, but there was also an hour unpaid lunch and 2-3 hours of daily commute, so I was gone from home 12 hours a day. I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and the only thing I can say that as the kids get older it gets easier. When they can feed, dress, and entertain themselves, it makes it much easier. Also once they eat adult meals so you aren’t making several different things at once. Hang in there man.
