@AceNova_ @TheDollprint @netflix For $ 0.50 a month, you'll receive a letter in the mail with a drawing from a Kindergartner who is told the plot of a movie and they attempt to draw it for you. My fridge is filling up.

Walter Freeman drove around America with an ice pick. He hammered it through people's eye sockets to destroy the front of their brains. He called it a lobotomy. He did this 3,439 times in 23 states. In one stretch in West Virginia in 1952, he did 228 of them in twelve days at $25 each. About 14% of his patients died on the table or shortly after, roughly 481 in total. This is the world Shutter Island is set in. The movie takes place in 1954. By that year, more than 18,000 Americans had been lobotomized. In the asylum on the island, two kinds of doctors are arguing about what to do with Andrew Laeddis. The argument between them is the same argument happening in every American mental hospital that year. On one side, Dr. Naehring and the Warden. They are the old guard. Their answer is to drug patients, strap them down, and send the difficult ones to the ice pick. On the other side, Dr. Cawley. He believes in a brand new technique called psychodrama. A Romanian psychiatrist named Jacob Moreno invented it. The technique works like this: you let the patient act out their delusion in a staged scenario. You build the world they imagine: fake people, false leads, mysteries they get to solve. You let them play the hero. Then you let reality crack the fantasy open. By 1954, Moreno was on the road six months a year teaching this method at hospitals around the world. Cawley is testing it on Andrew. There was also a third option that arrived the same year the film is set. On March 26, 1954, the FDA approved the first antipsychotic pill. Chlorpromazine, sold under the brand name Thorazine. Doctors called it the "chemical lobotomy" because it produced the same calming effect without the brain damage. Within ten years, 50 million people had taken it. The film tells you which option Andrew has been on. Late in the movie, Cawley says it out loud: chlorpromazine, for the past two years. So when Andrew asks whether it is better to live as a monster or die as a good man, he is choosing the ice pick. American patients faced that exact choice in 1954. The film shows you the path he was offered instead, and why so many never got it.

The spreadsheet math on this is brutal. She left roughly $54 million on the table. Yet she probably just made the best financial decision of her life. $1M in an S&P 500 index fund at age 20 compounds to approximately $58M in inflation-adjusted terms by age 80. The historical real return is about 7% annually over 97 years of data. Her annuity pays $52,000 a year. Over 60 years that totals $3.1M. The gap is 18x. Every finance account in these replies will tell you she's wrong. The compounding math is clear. Take the lump sum, put it in VOO, don't touch it for 60 years. The Certified Financial Planner Board says roughly a third of lottery winners declare bankruptcy within five years. Illinois court records show 28% of winners who won $50K or more went bankrupt in the same window. The average winner spends 60% of their winnings on family and friends in the first two years. She's 20. Peak impulsivity, minimal financial literacy, and every person she's ever met just found out she has a million dollars in her checking account. The $1M doesn't go into a Vanguard account. It goes into the most socially pressured spending environment a human being can occupy. $1,000 a week is a permanent $52K salary, tax-free in Canada, that arrives whether she makes good decisions or catastrophic ones. Can't be drained by a partner. Can't be lost to a scam. Can't be "invested" in a cousin's restaurant. Shows up every Friday for the rest of her life. The spreadsheet says lump sum by 18x. The data on what actually happens to people who receive $1M at 20 says she just bought the most expensive insurance policy in lottery history, and it was worth every dollar she gave up.
DividendBoomer@BoomerDivvies

An 20-year-old Canadian girl won $1M (tax free in Canada) in the lottery and chose $1,000/week instead of the lump sum. Is this wise or the worst financial decision of her life? What are you doing when this happens to you??

There's been debates for a while now over which players are considered "ball knowledge" and I just wanna make one thing clear: If a guy had a SUPER unique name, I don't care if he wasn't a great player, that is NOT ball knowledge. It is not impressive that you remember Jacquizz Rodgers Ball knowledge is for deep pulls that aren't memorable to most people. You're just picking a guy who was memorable for a different reason

@AaronQuinn716 @golfisright You cant be this fucking dense. The zero step is the first step once the ball touches the hand, unless he is actively bubbling, which he isnt. He takes 4 steps AFTER the zero step before ever putting the ball on the ground.

Once again, people are complaining about rules they don't know in the game of basketball. Look, I know NBA ratings and stuff are down. But the complaints about the game have crazy old uncle vibes. The rules have changed since people played in High School in the 1980s. Also, TBH, the level of play and athletic ability we see nightly in the NBA is greater than it's EVER been. Full stop. We are just desensitized to how good they are.

There's no such thing as traveling in the NBA anymore. Jalen Green took SIX steps in a 1-point game with 25 seconds left... no call 😭

@Le_FRAUD23 1 player is the best offensive player of all time and the best defensive wing of all time. The other player played a long time, and is a top 7-10 offensive player all time, and does not rank in the top 50 defensively. This isn’t an argument. It’s recency bias

Truth Over Lies@rbpittsteel·
It should have been either kicker Jason Myers or the Seattle defense. Walker's numbers were inflated on 2 plays on the same drive (30 and 29 yard runs) which only led to a FG. Otherwise, he had 25 carries for 76 yards (3.0 per carry) and was held in check by the NE defense. Kicker made all 7 of his kicks and accounted for 17 points, enough to actually WIN the Super Bowl. The people voting for the MVP put no actual thought into this. They've been wrong on MVP in other SBs as well (most glaring was Santonio Holmes getting it over James Harrison in SB 43).

Kennth Walker is the fifth offensive player in Super Bowl history to be named Super Bowl MVP while not accounting for a touchdown, scoring or throwing, joining: Jets QB Joe Namath (SB III), Raiders WR Fred Biletnikoff (SB XI), Patriots WR Deion Branch (SB XXXIX) and Patriots WR Julian Edelman (SB LIII).

@TheDunkCentral @dpshow I love Reggie, but it was 3 years. His rookie year he wasn't in the conversation, and in his second year it was only about half the season. But from 2009 through 2011 you could make the argument.

@Robotized @csuwildcat @REFLOG18 Lake is literally pushing him towards the ball that is way out of bounds. I don't understand what you people don't see. Lake is helping him get to the path of the ball! And neither foot is still on the ground and the ball isn't even to his hands yet.
