Our friend had his phone opened on IG. A random picture of an Asian girl with literal "airbag" boobs popped up, rather naked. Those boobs were so artificially inflated though that it reminds me of an AI image.

We now clown him constantly

I wonder if you can put a headphone in. Have your phone live translate to at least follow conversation? And maybe have your SO translate your responses?

I also love the Wayfarer Series by Becky Chambers. They take me on a little adventure too!!

Other ones may be Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree, The House on the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. Wholesome reads IMO

No cut off. AI may have some books out there but not all. There will always be authors out there like Martha Wells, Sanderson, john Scalzi and even new debut authors all the time trying to write. Agree with other poster, you're only going to miss out by limiting yourself

I think it depends on where you live but mine is ATT Prepaid. I pay $300 a year for 16gb, though I only use <5GB month. I have tried:

  • RedPocket (Verizon) - Depolarized too much for data
  • Google Fi - Might be better now but when it switched from a Sprint and TMobile tower it used to drop the call... I havent tried it in many years
  • Verizon - My favorite but I wanted to stop paying so much $$$ Mint - Cheapest plan I had because of sale ($7/month for 6 months). But TMobile service for me where I am isn't great so wasn't worth.
  • Cricket - Loved it but just a little more expensive than ATT Prepaid

Mine is similar. Just a day with my husband and dog and I will be happy.

I read Anxious People right after or before and liked that one too. I was also on a wholesome book kick for a while. It was closest thing to Man Called Ove that I read maybe because same author.

A Psalm for the Wild Built was very different but great short novella. Her wayfarer series is more sci fi but I loved the adventure through the characters.

Another simple but wholesome read, sort of YA, is The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune.

I just finished Only Murders in the Building. I love it. Its a whodunit with Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. The whole cast always feels to me like they're always having a lot of fun!

100% agree. Our healthcare sucks and I won't deny that. It would be so much cheaper and more efficient to have single-payer/universal healthcare. Studies and data consistently show that Americans pay the most and have worse healthcare outcomes (especially comparing mortality rates: overall, maternal, infant, etc). People are paying into it with high premiums and still having copays, out of pocket costs, etc. Single payer is the way to go for sure.

My job still exists in other countries like Australia, Japan, etc. But yes they dont have to worry about the healthcare services patients get being paid for or covered as much.

 

If so, which ones? I am looking to game and talk to friends over discord on my Steam Deck. No FPS, more bullet hells, ARPGs, etc. Thank you!!
