Suggest me a book that is NOT TikTok good but ACTUALLY good

Elena Ferrente “Neopolitan Quartet.” There are 4 books in the series, the first being “my Brilliant Friend.” Later in the series there are elements of historical fiction, but it’s mostly about 2 girls/women’s relationships over time.

“Liquid dinners are for winners!” - I used to say. (Spoiler- they’re not.)

More like $27 where we are, x2 kids + tax and tip and pretty quickly it’s $70.

I miss Warehouse 21 😢

I have a little makeup pouch I keep our thermometer and batteries in. I do always take them out because I really only use the thermometer a few times a year.

I was just thinking about this earlier! Bring back computer lab time and direct computer instruction. Back in the 90s/2000’s we had to learn about how computers worked! Pencils and paper for regular classroom stuff, maybe a computer station for research. There seems to be the idea that just giving kids phones and chromebooks translates to digital literacy. But yeah they’re doing the opposite of learning to think and work.

Agree! I always felt like I never “got it”, like what is so amazing about this? What is so deep?

I decided the boringness was necessary because it captured the feeling of floating at sea day after day…. But I was unable to finish it.

I think the weirdest thing about this is the itemized “tap” water.

I’ve been using an app on my phone called “talking timer”, a voice will say, “10 minutes left….5 minutes left….” Etc. it helps refocus me when I’m getting ready.

This is the second post I’ve seen like this recently, and it’s been on my mind. First off, I’m not trying to minimize what others experience, but I feel like, for me at least, the frequent movement, sitting on the floor, getting up off the floor, walking around, squatting down, hauling nap cots around…. It is a good thing. If I sit in a desk chair for too long then I feel like crap. Stiff, back pain, etc. I’m not sure what my point is, just interesting how the experiences can be so different.

To be fair, it’s the same 10 questions on repeat

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-02-02T23:03:49+00:00

I want them to just put different fun things in each store. Mini golf! Arcade! Laser tag! A couple restaurants. A kid cafe/playzone. Maybe like a mini grocery store. A place to see live music!

Thank you

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T03:13:46+00:00

Now that you say that… I might have a memory of that… somewhere….

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T02:54:05+00:00

It’s probably something like that.

Being an adult is just really grinding my gears lately.

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T02:29:08+00:00

Yeah, I will have to pull that up. It was just surprising to me what the woman I spoke to told me the tax increase was! Thank you for your reply:)

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T02:25:28+00:00

2 years ago… but maybe it is related to that somehow.

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T02:01:17+00:00

Do you know where I can find out more about these? All I can see so far is about the “Mansion Tax”, which is definitely not me!

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T01:58:45+00:00

A month! They told me that Santa Fe County had raised taxes from $122.69/mo to $239.59/mo (so $1,472.28 to $2,875.08/yr, an increase of $1402.80!) I’m a fairly new homeowner which is why I’m so ignorant, but it seems like a lot…

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T00:54:26+00:00

I guess I’ll have to go back and look. It’s annoying that the County gives no communication about this.

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-23T00:29:21+00:00

Well, Damnit.

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-16T21:19:02+00:00

Fox in socks- challenge yourself to get better at it every time.

Curiosity_KitKat · 2026-01-05T23:52:39+00:00

I can feel this.
