Well there are the obvious Reddit trolls who think the mere presence of women in leading roles is a farce, but even beyond that there’s really something of a misogynistic strain of thinking that I’ve found in some criticism of TLJ.

Oh agreed, the sexism coming from Star Wars discussions is super saddening.

It’s so true, buying something for 100 dollars doesn’t feel appreciably better than buying something for 5. There’s definitely a “rush” to shopping so redirecting that rush to better habits is something I should work on.

That’s awesome advice, thank you! It’s so true, for me the feeling of purchasing something feels nicer than the accomplishment of not buying it. Not buying something doesn’t feel like an accomplishment so finding a way to make it one would go a long long way.

Yeah that was another concern of mine.

To kind of steer things in the right direction, I know about the difference of wants and needs, and how to construct a budget. What I’m really getting at is how do you find the discipline to follow through. Where do you find the motivation to, say, bring your lunch to work each day, or to consider your savings…

This is definitely the kind of advice I’m looking for. I do tend to not check my bank account out of anxiety, which snowballs at I forget about all the little daily purchases.

I’ve tried mint but I find it a little daunting, especially since it tries to automate everything by directly linking to my accounts and categorizing my purchases by itself. I’d sooner use a spreadsheet, but I’ve heard so many good things about Mint that maybe I should try again.

Any money management tips for someone with a history of spending way too much on creature comforts and has a bad case of lifestyle-creep?

I always thought the actress who plays Jillian on Workaholics would be the perfect choice.

I adored the GameCube version, my Chao were my children

He got an honorarium, but they definitely worded it like he got a knighthood.

Usually he’s on his back in bed and I’ll be on my knees hunched over, maybe we should mix it up.

Okay that’s comforting to know. I’ve been doing it for almost 10 years now but not very often, probably not often enough to get that muscle worked on.

Gay guy here.

After Weinstein, I take these “hard to work with” rumors with a big heaping mound of salt.

We hope you see the light someday

While Ryan is definitely ungrateful, you make him collecting his Social Security survivors benefits sound super evil. I did the same thing after my mother died, I saved the money each month until I turned 18 and used it to go to college. I’m very very lucky to not have loans, though I’d rather have my parent.

Thank you, my thoughts exactly

Snoke has a line saying as Kylo strengthens in the dark side, his counterpart in the light side would strengthen to meet him. I took that to explain Rey’s strength, she’s linked to Kylo is some way. I’m looking back at the Force Awakens scene where they go into each other’s minds, and I’m starting to think it was more…
