Vaguely reminiscent of The Stacks in Ready Player One.

Yeah, the time change always messes me up more than I think it should. I wish we would just stop it altogether.
Not anymore. Used to have both and deleted them as data mining and mishandling became more prevalent as the user experience declined. Now I’m only on Lemmy and barely on LinkedIn.
I decided to watch Arrival tonight. It’s great so far! I’m glad they captured the sense of awe and uncertainty well. I’m about halfway through (intermission now - taking a snack break).
This is making me want to go back and read them again. They seem like the kind of stories I might get even more out of the second time around.
“Liking What You See: A Documentary” really stuck with me. I think about it a lot when I see what people have done to themselves due to Hollywood, marketing, beauty industry, instagram, TikTok, etc.
Yes, I read it as part of a collection of his short stories. I enjoyed the philosophical conundrums in all of them.
Disgusting.
I have a Saudi client who was renting a property in London, I think it was £100,000 a week. They booked it out for three months. They brought 60 of their staff from Saudi Arabia all the way over to the property. It was a family of three, and they only went for three days.
I feel like they’re lowkey body shaming. Or it was made by stoners.
Same. I think I got it on a spring break in Mexico. I vaguely remember quite a few people having them.
They’re pretty consistent about doing whatever benefits them most. Otherwise, nah.
New goal unlocked!
If frozen embryos are children, I can claim them as dependents on my taxes, right?
The recent Apple TV interface update is TERRIBLE too. They’re taking up more space with less content so I can’t see more than two or three saved videos in my playlist at a time. And it’s a pain in the ass to even get to a playlist now. Really terrible, but I love some of the creators, so I don’t know what else to do.
I would be more impressed if they had a Nordic Comedy section!
In Search of the Lost Chord - it’s meant to be played beginning to end, in order
I read it accurately as urchin crushing, but still thought they were talking about destitute children at first (a la Oliver Twist).

Is this just fantasy…?
