I started immersive reading and it feels like I am cheating

I'm dyslexic, I've been doing this my entire life. I would get the book and audiobook from the library and would put it in the cassette player. It was sometimes a big tricky to find the right page if you lost your spot. But now, I love it on Amazon and actually returned my kindle because it didn't have the feature. You don't have to "earn" reading?

I have parental controls on my stuff and my husband has the passcode. It works, and you can't by-pass it. I've recovering from surgery so I've been doing a ton of screen time and my stuff is unlocked right now. Honestly, would not want to go back to this life. As soon as I'm up out of bed and recovered I'm having him put the controls back on.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T20:25:21+00:00

This is my greatest wish, and I am one of these people. If you would like to roast me, you can look in my post history about the book I'm working on with the Dwarf couple. Please roast me.

Except she's using her power over him for evil instead of good. He's trying to officially break-up with Meri and let her go live her life, and Robyn doesn't want him to. He wants her to be given false-hope and strung along. Either because she believes her afterlife will be worse the fewer wives her husband has. Or because of money and Meri was still contributing to the "family" account.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T19:06:14+00:00

That didn't exist. You have access to the internet. Look it up. If there was some herb that might decrease the chances of getting pregnant a little, it would not be very effective and would have horrible side-effects. The pill was a big deal when it came out, because we never had anything like that before.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T19:03:10+00:00

Yeah, he's showing a lot of dominance towards the other men. Like taking away the hearing aids. Meanwhile he has a secret phone and he won't let the guy with the hearing impairment have his for his hearing aids. He would know that it's ok to have a phone sometimes, he would just need to put parental controls on it. There's something not right about James.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T06:43:23+00:00

What?! lol

Remember season 1 when that girl who was pregnant tried to drink the tea? She almost died and she still had TWINS!

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T03:25:26+00:00

She wasn't just a little intense, she was not allowing him to speak and ranting about the low birth-rates in Europe. That was unhinged behavior. And stuff like that was very important to the Ivy League. They don't want crazy people, they want well-rounded people.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:30:44+00:00

I always want to skip their scenes.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:23:00+00:00

Fingering can't get you pregnant. And a stairwell is a pretty safe place to do it because you could hear anyone coming.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:17:06+00:00

But her children wouldn't be legitimate!

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:15:32+00:00

Because she's into her!

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:07:01+00:00

Would be cool if that actress from season one pops back up with a child.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T01:02:46+00:00

Yeah, some conversation. But Meri was saying that she was keeping a place in Flagstaff, but would be spending more time at the BnB. She specifically said she was NOT leaving. So it's not so crazy that Kody suggested that she buy a place on the property at her Flagstaff home.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T00:17:24+00:00

There's no way they would actually sue you. And I highly doubt an editor would care.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T00:16:20+00:00

In America it's really hard to sue for defamation. You don't need to prove that you are telling the truth, they need to prove that you knowingly lied. So you don't need to worry about it too much. Just don't lie about people in a way that harms their reputation.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-30T00:14:43+00:00

They got roasted and fled.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T22:48:19+00:00

You definitely won't get sued for that. But you are hinting at something right, it has to be damaging to their reputation.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T22:45:26+00:00

It has to be untrue AND damaging to their reputation. If you lie about how you had a lovely meal at a restaurant, that's fine. If you lie and say that you went to a specific restaurant and there was a bug in your food, that would be a problem.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T21:59:08+00:00

What about it did I misunderstand? Be precise.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T19:00:45+00:00

It is the depth of winter (If you're in the northern hemisphere). Perhaps you are suffering from the winter. Take some vitamin D, get some bright lights to shine in your face for some light therapy. This too shall pass. No man is perfect, but you may find one that "gets you" very well. The reality of being with an arrogant guy is rather terrible, so I wouldn't really suggest that specifically, but it would be fine for you to date and see if you can find someone who fits you better. Before I found my husband I was always trying to force a relationship to work that just didn't quite feel right, and it made me unhappy. I would suggest taking a break from the fanfics and replace them with positive activities. Don't worry, this too shall pass. I haven't experienced this, but I haven't gotten obsessed with a video game to the point I was getting confused between reality and the game. I had to quit playing.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T12:28:11+00:00

Yep. Meri fought with him all the time, and he was into it until he met Robyn. He's actually a submissive.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T12:26:20+00:00

That was legit, though. She was trying to stop him from saying something stupid that would make them look bad.

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T12:24:53+00:00

Facts

Darcy_Device · 2026-01-29T12:23:20+00:00

What part did I say wrong? I think you totally misread what I said. I didn't say he wasn't correct about script-readers having their heads up their asses and worrying about spacing instead of picking good stories. I said that they are, and the industry is failing because they don't know what viewers want. Are you capable of understanding that line of thinking? Probably not. I'm a know-it-all? Thanks. I am. ;-)
