Best way to migrate multiple portfolios filled with crap to a Boglehead portfolio

I have behind me a trail of poor decisions scattered throughout about a half-dozen accounts. About 1M+ of equities: mostly random mutual funds, a few stocks. Some things I don't even understand exactly what they are.

A few accounts are IRAs/401ks, one Roth IRA, one taxable brokerage account, one MM account. I want to consolidate it and do something like simple TDF to unburden myself from the stress of thinking about this ever again.

What is the best way to go about doing this, in practice? I understand I need to liquidate various things, but can I move it all to Vanguard or Fidelity and have them do it for me?

Or is there a compelling reason to do it myself? Are there major tax considerations other than LTCG for the taxable account to think about?

Biglaw to boutique

I'm considering a move from an Amlaw 100 to a boutique. I expected a pay cut but the minimum hours are only a bit lower. What to make of this? What is an hour at biglaw compared with an hour at a boutique? Is working at a boutique that much better in terms of QOL (or something else) despite the comparable number of minimum hours?

Just bought this battery which arrived with empty threaded terminals, no wires of any kind, and no documentation, specs, etc. Buyers beware.

The Amazon page says the terminals are "F13 terminals" which does not seem to exist anywhere else outside this Amazon page. From the picture, it says the threads are 5 mm, so I guess I need some kind of 5 mm threaded screw or bolt of some sort.

Looking for recommendations on what else I need to buy to make this thing useable. I have an ICOM-7100 transceiver with two crimped pin connectors that I'll need to connect it to.
