If you’ve been challenged to a foot race and you have the choice, wear your skeleton, muscles, and skin for your best chance at winning. If you’re being made to pick only one, choose muscles over skeleton.

Well that sucks. I did not know that.

Libby isn’t the only app though! My library uses Libby and overdrive and maybe even a third one

I don’t understand why people are using apps with ads. What is the reason? Is connect selling my data and boost isn’t? Why would you pick an app that has ads when so many don’t?

It’s a fediverse wide collaborative art project!. You follow the link, log in with your fediverse account (you provide your username, they dm you a code, you use that to login) and then you can start placing pixels to create your art. The purpose in my opinion is two fold: one, making art is fun in and of itself! And two: it’s fun to participate in a community event. The whole thing is practically an exercise in decorum and human nature, and will others graffiti your art piece or cover it up, or add to it?

I added three sprites. A buzzy beetle from Paper Mario, a jujimo from Stardew Valley, and a triforce from Zelda. No one disturbed my pieces, and a stranger worked on my triforce with me, without ever having to speak about it. It was thrilling! Somewhere else in the world, a stranger worked on a little bit of sunshine along side me and with me. It’s possible they don’t even speak English!. Very cool!

Once my phone breaks, I spend $150-250 on a “new” old pixel. a couple gens behind, but honestly when I get the next one, it’s always basically the same, so I don’t know why I’d buy new. My current 4S’s battery is pretty shot, so it’s about time to upgrade again, but I’ll be sad to lose the tinier size and headphones jack. I never use the jack, but I like that it’s there as a backup.

Can you please respond back in two hours?

My immediate family was all on board, so no big worries. It was the Grand parent level that thought I was being unreasonable with the privacy stuff. None of them ever be brought it up directly to me, just to my husband and my parents, so I could never really address it.

I think if we socialized men to not deny their biology and actually be around babies the numbers would be a lot closer to 60 or 70 percent of both genders love being around a little squish baby. Plenty of people don’t like it in both genders, but in my experience most men like a lot of domestic stuff if they’re not specifically trained not to.

My relatives hated this strategy, and I wasn’t the only one who suffered from it. They guilted me for it, but also guilted my parents and siblings. As if they are entitled to the details of my daughter.

People could handle (though they were vocally unhappy about it) is keeping the baby off Facebook. They could not handle me not sending pics on (Facebook) messenger, and they couldn’t handle me not telling me the birth weight.

Multiple boomers got very upset that I wanted to keep that information private.

Yeah, my 4a needs to be charged multiple times a day. The phone is still great, screen in perfect condition, still have space, and it’s quick, but the battery is just shot. From fully charged to 76% in the last hour.

Right, but hotels don’t expect you to take out the trash, wash the towels/bedding, or wash the water cups/ice bucket. Even if you don’t make a mess you still often have to do those things on top of the cleaning fee you’re paying.

I have a 4a and it does not have unlimited, just a heads up. My old pixel did have it, but not this one.
