Poor Things, $5.99 rental on Amazon Prime, rated R, 2023, comedy / drama / romance. The incredible tale about the fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter, a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter.
One of the most bizarre movies I've seen in quite some time. All I could think of was "Stanley Kubrick meets Frankenstein". Very good production quality and acting. The use of colors in the scenes was excellent. Very different - it's "out there". This is a film that critics would love, but some viewers may not. This movie won several awards.

I removed an off-topic post and reply ("other" - political implications). As a reminder, see: Non-actionable or Trolling Topics
If readers can't do anything with the content of a topic other than argue about it, it does not belong here. Examples include:
- US or world economic, political, tax, health care and climate policies
- conspiracy theories of any type
- discussions of the crimes, shortcomings or stupidity of other people, whether they be political figures, celebrities, CEOs, Fed chairmen, subprime mortgage borrowers, lottery winners, federal "bailout" recipients, poor people, rich people, etc. Of course, you are welcome to talk about the stupid financial things you have done.

Re: [As a g4 visa holder in the US - Looking for help with 1099-INT tax form, emergency fund]
Welcome! I merged your questions into a single discussion because it's important that we see all of the information together.
Are all of your investments in the US? If not, what is your home country?
For US investments, I recommend posting your portfolio information in this thread using the My portfolio: seeking advice format? It will make you think about the "big picture" while giving us the information we need to point you in the right direction.
If you have investments outside the US, I suggest using the My portfolio: seeking advice format.

Re: Do you assume legislative cuts in Social Security and other federal benefits?
I removed an off-topic post and reply (political comment). This thread has run its course and is locked (topic exhausted). See: Locked Topics
Moderators or site admins may lock a topic (set it so no more replies may be added) when a violation of posting policy has occurred. Occasionally, even if there are no overt violations of posting policy, a topic (or thread) will reach a point where the information content of the discussion has been essentially exhausted and further replies are much more likely to cause distress to the community than add anything of value.
