Post interview process - When the recruiter mentions a base salary range based on their historical data for the position and on my years of experience and this aligns with what I see in Glassdoor too, is this essentially locked in where I can’t negotiate the base salary outside of that range? Example: Recruiter says base salary range is 85-90k, but my target is 100k base, will they only offer 90k base max and try to meet my target with sign on bonus, etc?

No way to tell, you just gotta ask.
My experience negotiating recently: they gave me a base range, I gave them my desired TC, they gave me base at the max of said range and met rest of desired TC via bonus. I asked for a small amount to be moved from bonus to base, they said no so I just took it. So I guess there is a strict band for base. But just ask.

I agree with this. I typically mention what I'm looking for base, but focus mostly on TC. If they get the base within 10-15k and meet my TC, then I'm happy.

Married for 14 years with 5 kids. Since the start, my wife has had anger issues. She’s not violent, but will go on ‘anger benders’ for days where she cannot be kind to me, stonewalls, and even leaves. Sometimes this is based on a bad argument; most recently, it’s based in a story she conjured up and believes about me having an affair with my neighbor, even though it is 100% false and I’ve tried to show her that. Is this a sign of a personality disorder? Or something else? How can I support her?
