I'm about a year in on the coughs. Rarely I'll have days without it, but yeah. Assume it's long covid but no real way to prove it other than that I'm a shut in who doesn't smoke or anything. Get my shots and all but it only takes one time. Be safe out there.

Always blows my mind that people act like covid is no big deal. Still masking in public, doing everything I can to avoid catching it. Caught it after 3 years when my mom brought it into the home. Didn't realize I had it till the long covid symptom hit: I can't eat without having to cough. That's the best way I can describe it. It's annoying on the best days and causes vomiting on the worst (the amount of coughing causes the vomiting).

Fuck covid and all of the people acting like it's no big deal. Normal is never coming back for me. I'm just another person fallen through the cracks of a life heavily impacted by covid (and the shit ass US healthcare system to various degrees).

Nice debunked conspiracy theories pushed by the GOP to vilify the 'other'. I'd say try harder but you're clearly a tool of the fascists.

To help with smell in the washer we keep the liquid soap tray open after we finish using it. And leave the lid open most of the time. It seems to keep humidity down and the smell went away almost instantly.

Wondering if it's not that healing magic is bad but they wanted to protect from Rose maybe? But the way they tried to show that felt really weird.

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid falls into the fantastical slice of life genre. Interviews with Demi-Girls is probably another one in terms of the setting. Unfortunately a lot of others would be isekai. Campfire Cooking in Another World would be one such isekai. Can't remember the others without getting on my comp.

AI writing the story too?

Semi similar boat in terms of moving for me, but from the KS side of the border hah. Just looking to move in 2025. Hopefully you get some good advice as I'll be watching hah

The humor here is just right for me. Tearmoon is probably in my top 4 of each week and this week did a great job of 'why' that is for me. Sure it's tropey in that she did what she didn't want to do, but it's the way she tries to overcome those situations that are great. And the absolute sass at the end.

Ah yeah that's it. I'd had no issues with it, but I bet it's getting flagged on YT even though they're getting those sought after clicks and such. Cause I'd never click on an ad of my own choice.

I assume it's uBlock Origin. I have that and another one that I can't remember the name of, but it 'clicks ads' and you don't see them. I disabled uBO and left the other running. Worked fine for a few videos Sunday but Monday it was throwing the 'you can't use an ad blocker' again.

But I'd wager just about anything that affects YT on your end will throw that message at this point since they desperately want people to pay for premium or watch 3min of ads per 5min video.

These clowns are the worst. We have them in Kansas, and yeah. Their whole thing is 'we are above the law because we're the law'. They believe they can over turn an election for any reason just because they're sheriff's.

I've watched the 12 available episodes of Helck and yeah it's just not for me. Feel the world building stuff with a lot of hints about big stuff (time travel is the one I'm most curious about) but don't think I can get through the second cour.

I've loved "Undead Murder Farce". It feels like that 2010ish BBC Sherlock Holmes meets supernatural creatures and I love it for that. Vending Machine was goofy fun but not the best show of the season for me.

"Helck" is probably my biggest miss. Went in blind and each episode felt pointless in terms of pacing or episodic resolution. The jokes weren't landing for me either, but that was me.
