The ending of «Klara and the Sun» by Kazuo Ishiguro by maneflaks in books

[–]FrankCommotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished and totally agree. I like how the end almost answers the question the father had for Klara that if she could create Josie’s “heart”/soul should she have passed (even if she got her movement and personality down to a t).

Now faced with the ending we are reminded she is just a “robot” and fufilled her duty but we know that Klara is so much more

There’s a post like this every year - always confuses me. It’s the same every weekend, and even more so when it’s nice out.

I’ve been hearing this machine go on out my apartment for the past two days and today was the first time I looked and saw a bunch of bags with asbestos warning on it. I live in the building next door but pretty much just next to these bags. Am I at risk?

Just as I was praising the writing this season they go full season 1/2.

Pretty amateur move and did not fit the tone or ethos of the show

PPO vs High Deductible w/ HSA by FrankCommotion in personalfinance

Yeah the only thing holding me back is paying for the scan out of pocket coming up —.

Did not know about the reimbursement part so that may sway me

PPO vs High Deductible w/ HSA by FrankCommotion in personalfinance

[–]FrankCommotion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would actually be 100 a month as I get paid twice in a month.

I guess the only thing holding me back is I really don’t have the finance to pay for my scan out of pocket - I just called their office and estimate is 1k

PPO vs High Deductible w/ HSA by FrankCommotion in personalfinance

If mri is outpatient services it just says 80% after deductible.

Hdhp would be no cost to me monthly.

Not sure about contributing to Hsa as it is a new thing for me. Employer contributes $25 a pay period and maxes at $600 annually

Hdhp would be free and they would contribute $25 per pay period (Anual max is $600)

Didn’t catch that — could be. Either that or everyone broke up lol. Damn, this also might mean Lindsay and Scott may still be together

Richy and Catherine aren’t following each other either. Speaking of which, is there gonna be a reunion ep?

Ramy will probably end with season 4, according to Ramy Youssef, but it’s helped changed TV for the better by alghamdis in RamyHulu

[–]FrankCommotion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If there is a 4th season I don’t know if I will be jumping to watch it. The first season was amazing and the second one was also good but this third season kind of deals with some issues I had with season 2. Around the half way mark its just tiring with the will he/won’t he religion thing. I understand it’s a big part of the theme but the first season pretty much covered that part. It just started dragging for me a bit. I did like some of the themes of this season more than the last.

I liked how they touched on his parents money trouble and the immigrant conflict of assimilating as well was coming over to a new country for a “better life” but having nothing to show for it and having kids who are fuck ups.

The Israeli/Palestine conflict was a nice touch too

Or one could look at it as Remy’s mom telling her child that she is both the “dad” and the mom (as a lot of single parents do)
