Foreign Growth Shares and US Taxes

Hello! I'm aware of some really frustrating rules for foreign-residing US taxpayer around the strike prices for stock options, for example. Are there also special "gotchas" for foreign-residing US taxpayers getting awarded growth shares in a foreign country? Thanks!

I miss squeegies at gas stations. ⛽🧽

It's a little thing, but I really miss having a bit of water and a squeegie required for cuatomer use at every gas station. I even bought a squeegie for my own vehicle, but admit I always forget to bring water to use with it!

I'm two decades late to be watching SG-1 for the first time, but enjoying it. "Lifeboat" came along and really impressed. It feels like Shanks was pushed as far as his acting could go and he delivered - especially as Kienan.

Is this seen as a standout episode by the fan community, or did it just strike a chord for me?

"You see, with the 1997 clothbound hardback Alan Lee illustrated oversized tome edition I can hold and feed our infant while reading hands-free on an ornate book stand..."

Every weapon slot you have gets the same amount of experience that your class does at the end of an Operation or Stratagem, and that XP is split if you change whatever weapon is in that slot at a drop pod mid-mission. However, I cannot get a sense for what determines which weapon gets how much experience. For instance, I just did the first half of an operation and loads of kills with a Thunder Hammer that got less than 50 XP, while the Powe Sword I did the second half with got nearly 40 times the reward at 1900 XP. Neither of them leveled up, but I can't figure out the math at all. Lots of people guess that it has to do with kills, or it has to do with damage... But does anyone know how the system actually works for sure - or does that still remain a mystery? Thanks!

Hello! This seems the perfect subreddit for my question. I'd like to invest in large, sturdy hardbacks for annual reading to a child. I'm not a book collector, so some fruitless hours online and at the local library haven't left me with a plan. I got some advice towards some illustrated editions and that'd be fine, but pictures aren't the priority so much as appropriate, strong bindings for being left open under their own weight. Also, I suppose that larger editions would probably be good! Ideally I'd be able to shelve the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings together, but it's not a requirement they're "matched" or whatnot.

Aside on illustrations to capture a child's imagination: I kept my 1990s illustrated Hobbit comics, and can use a tablet to pull up great images to accompany reading aloud.

So, what might you recommend? Thanks in advance!
