Is there a day of any given year that is least special?
  • Oh! I know this one! It’s the dot above the i in Jeremy Bearimy. It’s Tuesday, July, and sometimes never. It’s the moment when nothing never happens.

    Let’s talk about media collections: How do you keep your library of your favorite movies and TV shows?
  • I’m on Vudu too and constantly wondering when it’s going to disappear on me, especially when the website crashes. I just can’t get past the convenience though. My external hard drive requires all these extra steps and cords to hook up to my laptop. It won’t hook up to my iPad at all, even wirelessly. None of my tech except the PlayStation even has a disk drive anymore.

    It’s just too easy to pull up the app or website and hope it works for another day. Although the sellout from Walmart to Fandango was frustrating, it still wasn’t enough to give up the convenience.

    People really do use Google Search to visit well-known websites instead of typing their names into the address bar
  • For the pop up sites on Facebook that try to sell me stuff, I’ll investigate them before going over to their actual website. Sometimes “legit?” or “scam” will auto populate. Sometimes it doesn’t.

    watching your children die
  • Made me remember this joke:

    A blonde walked in on her boyfriend having sex with their neighbor. Distraught, she picked up a gun and held it to her head. “Wait, babe! Don’t do it!” the boyfriend protested. “Shut up!” the blonde snapped. “You’re next!”

  • Lol yeah. I’m the heart and my boyfriend is the brain. I love the wall calendar.

    That’s awesome! Thanks for the info. :) I’ll have to look into that. I’m sure it would be fine to read it to her. It sounds like it would be similar to reading Lewis Carrol (the Alice in Wonderland author).

  • That’s awesome! I’m not familiar with that book, but I’m sure it doesn’t hurt. About to start… so 5-ish years old. I recommend books by Nick Selk, also known as The Awkward Yeti. He makes comics, like Heart and Brain, about the body and other science topics. The Sun Is A Big Deal, The Brain Is A Big Deal, and Onward To Good Things are three child friendly ones. I adore his comics too.

    I really thought we were gonna discuss the terrifying movie....
  • I recommend the book, “Alas, Babylon” by Pat Frank (read by Will Patton if you get the audible version, which is what I love to listen to).

    It’s about a community’s survival after a nuclear attack. No zombies or jump scares. Humans being humans and a lack of communication/resources.

    Warning: it is a dated book. It’s time period is set during segregation. It isn’t predominant, but it does come up from time to time.

    Here is a link to the audible version: https://www.audible.com/pd/B004BOGF3W?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp

  • I’ve seen that book! As a teacher, I love that you got it for your kid! Reading to your children is super important to helping me help you both. That book is going to give her a great vocabulary start and she will make great connections in math and art. Thank you!

    YSK: Lemmy All Third Party Clients List (Android/iPhone/Web) with status of that apps!
  • I’m using the iPhone 13 with TestFlight for the Memmy app. I’m pretty happy with it. It reminds me a lot of Apollo. There are things I miss, but it’s growing and just got a new update.
