You’ve heard of weather? Or doing things other than babysitting a hit smoking pit for 16 hours?

There’s many, many good reasons to live in the EU, fam.

Thank you!

Late, but 10/10 is my birthday - since I was born in Europe, raised in the US and now live in the UK, I’ve never had a problem writing my birthday correctly!

Because of nasty landlords happy to evict people or raise rents, Reddit and now Lemmy are full of people saying all landlords are awful morlocks feeding off the pain of everyone. Like everything else nowadays there’s no middle ground in the common arguments either way. Landlords evil, renters saints.

I get a lot of value out of Netflix, I watch tons of their shows every month.

I use Prime quite a bit also obviously for Amazon shopping and try to watch Prime Video a few times each month, and now they’ve expanded the music I’ll try that too.

I will be canceling Disney and just pirate what I want to see, which isn’t much, literally just one show.

E: I canceled Spotify ages ago and use their free version but for my favorite bands I downloaded their MP3 discographies. I buy their music on CD because it pays them better than streaming their songs thousands of times, plus I buy merch and go to the concerts so I’m OK with that.

E2: someone mentioned Patreon, I cancelled most of those as well because my gaming group broke up and all my patreons are for gaming 3D files. I have years worth of stuff to print and will never reach the end.

Oh, great find!

Definitely don’t count your books and multiply by 30 or so…

Upvoted for saying the phrase “as cool as the other side of the pillow”. Heard that once when someone was talking about a sports commentator and haven’t forgotten it in probably 35 years at least.
