it is entirely plausible that an hdhp that permits an hsa ends up costing you less annually for totally realistic health care needs. usually this will happen if your annual expenses are low enough to not need to pay for much of anything or high enough that you exceed your annual out-of-pocket max, and selecting such a plan is a gamble that your health care expenditures will fall on one of these extremes, for whatever definition of "extreme" applies to the candidate plan in question. for "good" plans with relatively low out-of-pocket maxes, this can be a fine bet.

the fees are usurious and they have the effect of tying even more of regular folks' financial security to the loving stock market, but the basic arithmetic on a given hdhp can end up good for the employee.

but the PPO is great you pay a KnOwN aMoUnT on each visit so no suprises! no we won't provide you with any cost calculator this year

even if you max out spending on the hsa plans where i work its still cheaper than the ppo plans because of the money they give for the hsa

hasn't disney pulled this "first lgbt character/couple in a disney/marvel/star war!!" like five times now? and every single time it's just pointing at a minor character who does nothing to indicate they are queer and saying "that guy's gay"

did disney already decide it was poo poo and not worth buying decent reviews for, or is the film such a colossal piece of crap that the reviewers felt safe using the forbidden numbers?

i'm guessing it's that first one, the eternals were kind of dumb d-list super heroes when i read comics 25 years ago and i suspect they haven't changed much since then.

i wonder if they're smart enough to have seen a lack of interest and just started ripping back all their marketing funds.

It's astonishing that the public has put up with this many different superheroes already. Prior to the MCU the average person could probably name Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, maybe The Incredible Hulk and a couple others and that's it. Nobody other than comic book neckbeards knew who Iron Man or Scarlet Witch or Thanos were. It's to the filmmakers' and actors' credit that they managed to get the general public aware of and interested in these second- and third-string characters.

I don't know a single person who's ever heard of The Eternals before this movie. And instead of Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Hemsworth, they have dusty old charisma voids like Angelina Jolie and a bunch of no-names playing Glup Shitto and friends. Good loving luck. I'm done

Yeah when I heard they were doing an Eternals movie I had no idea why the gently caress they would bother. The comic was loving terrible.

one of the trailers in front of ⊃⋃⋂⊂ for me was spider-man vs doctor strange and i think i will watch that one. i like both those characters and it has sony edition doc ock (and presumably other spiders-man and villains) in it so that's fun.

the other two trailers were top gun 2, which i will be seeing in imax obviously, and eternals which bleehhhhhhhh

The only concrete thing I really remember about the robot books is the future detective having a moment on a spaceship where's he's afraid of the robots walking in on him beating off

Aside from a general weird vibe from Asimov tbh

dude is probably the most likely to appreciate a role in a comic book movie for the sake of doing superhero poo poo for a film, honestly

the more weird dr. strange stuff they do, the better. eternals even mentioning thanos related events in the trailers was a huge put off to me. who cares, that poo poo happened. do more weird folding dimension poo poo and weird quantum non-sense, these are comic book movies have some fun
