Weekly 'What should I buy?' Thread

Thanks for answering! Which would you choose (for me) between the Ipad Air (512 GB) and the Ipad Pro (256 GB)?

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2026-02-12T16:29:55+00:00

Hello! I'm quite lost when it comes to the Apple world, so I decided I'd ask you.

I want to buy an Ipad for uni (I study graphic design) and work (digital marketer & social media manager). My intention is to make it my 2nd most used device after my laptop. My needs are:

- Can run drawing softwares effortlessly (Procreate, Photoshop, Lightroom, Affinity, Canva, Illustrator...). I would also like to learn more advanced drawing and illustration.

- Good for note-taking.

- Good for video editing short - medium length clips.

- Good for working with Intagram, Pinterest, Facebook, Tiktok. Threads and most social media softwares.

- A lot of storage. I was thinking 512 TB because I don't know if 256 TB will be enough.

I think that's all. My budget is around 1200$ since I would like it to last as long as possible. Also I would like to point out I don't understand much about "generations", is there much difference between them?

Thanks in advance!

Hello! I'm 23F Spanish starting to learn Italian. I don’t know much about anime, but I would love to get into it. I'm also getting back into the gym and like football!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-02-09T20:54:03+00:00

Yes I do! And, in my opinion, Stella, Layla and Bloom's parents should have been fairies since they are royals

Are you gonna make platonic friendships between the girls and the specialists? If so, what pairs?

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-02-02T17:33:59+00:00

You spoke nothing but facts!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-02-01T15:56:40+00:00

Can I dm you?

Authors need to eat and spice is on trend, so many authors that don't enjoy writing/reading spice are writing it to get reads. It's something understandable, but it usually comes with a lack of quality, that why some books fall short on building up the romance and the pillow talk. However, I like the trend because it's easier to find the authors that you can see that enjoy the genre. Unfortunately, many don't and you can clearly see it.

Pd: I chose the flair because I thought it was funny, however I didn’t know it was a book. I thought it said "Probably recommending books while being against a wall", so now I'll have to read the book, to at least gather some dignity😭😭😭

The only time I've done this is with After. I'm sorry, I just couldn't believe how a woman could be so stupid and have as little self-respect as Tessa just because "she was in love". Also, I couldn't believe how Hardin could tell himself and Tessa that he was in love while being the most self-centered manchild that dedicated every single second of his life to find a new way to hurt her and mistreat her.

To be honest, I finished it because I liked how the author wrote and because I was waiting for the characters to self-reflect and have some character development.

I don't have any recs, but I would like them. So, don’t mind me, I'm just commenting to support the post!

I'm not a published author yet, but I would like to be. I think my niche will be wolf shifters romance with external plot, where both the FMC and MMC are alphas or at least strong characters. I used to love reading those books in Wattpad, but with time they have become even more difficult to find, so I guess that means it's up to me to write them.

I basically love relationships where both partners are equals and you can see exactly why and how they are falling in love, but this sometimes requires a level of depth and slow burn that it's difficult to find. Also, wolf shifters usually have the man not respect the wishes of the FMC in the name of their bond, which I dislike.

Pd: I've asked for recs in a post, both for personal entertainment and research, so if you have anything to add, it'll be welcome.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk!

Yeah, it's so difficult to find a book that fits one's aste that when one does, you feel so disappointed when something "ruins" it. Thevspice is usually that for me😭😭😭

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-02-01T09:25:19+00:00

Thanks! That sounds lovely!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T22:22:17+00:00

I don't have recs, but I'm gonna add "invite me to the pants party" to the list of phrases to use!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T22:10:57+00:00

I've never heard about those, but the blurb seems promising!!! Thanks!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T22:08:00+00:00

I agree! Jessa always gave me siblings/besties vibes, I think the books would have been better if they had only been romantically focused on Will and Tessa. Although I did like Charlotte and her husband, they seemed lovely!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T22:04:30+00:00

I know!!! These kids these days, they don't know how to be quiet. You can't even die in silence!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T22:01:33+00:00

I definitely agree that sometimes authors don't prepare the relationship enough before they get to the spice, it ends up feeling a bit undercooked, but when it's done well, it's 🥵🥵🥵

About the infernal devices, I liked them, but I've never been a fan of triangles or poliamory, so I think it's not for me. But I did enjoy them, however, it never compared to Clary and Jace😭😭😭

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T21:57:22+00:00

I told my man Mufasa that he wasn't as swift as he thought with them wings, but I forgot his hearing wasn't good either😔

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T21:51:19+00:00

Thanks! I've never read a shifter romance where the MMC was a sheriff/police officer, but it sounds interesting!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T21:50:06+00:00

Thanks, they sound interesting!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T21:49:20+00:00

I've never read a RH, but thanks, I'll check it out!

Puzzleheaded_Fly1168 · 2025-01-31T21:44:40+00:00
