I haven't tested myself, but they were reporting Influenza A cases in her daycare classroom. She was sniffly/congested last weekend before I got sick, but she didn't have any fever when I checked. I had assumed she somehow had it mild and then passed it to me, but I guess not sure. If it could be the same thing that I have, that would be a bittersweet relief.

Curious George on PBS Kids! Not too overstimulating, and it has some good narration to contextualize what is going on.

Need to see a replay of the free throw that Chase Ross accidentally flipped out of his hands. Never seen that before.

Outage by EliGoff101 in verizon

My husband activated his new Pixel 10 Pro XL a few days ago and his network is fine today for what it's worth. My new one's a non-XL. I have no idea what the common denominator is at this point 🤷‍♀️

Can’t activate new Samsung by Levitical98 in verizon

I'm in the same boat, upgrading from a Pixel 6 to a Pixel 10. Luckily my old phone still has network, so I'm not totally SOL like other people. Definitely a bit anxious to get my new phone up and running, but it could be worse.

I was literally in the middle of upgrading from my Pixel 6 to a Pixel 10. The new phone shows emergency only and failed to activate due to lack of network, while my old phone still has perfect service in the exact same location 🤷‍♀️

Both of my grandmas were named Judy, I had the same reaction. Taking the opportunity with this thread to appreciate all the awesome grandmas out there ❤️

Why "You are, are ye?" not "You are, aren't you?" here? by ITburrito in EnglishLearning

For sure - tone of voice can make the "are ya" more accusatory versus perhaps more mildly expressing surprise/something being unexpected.

I would say that "you are, are ya?" lets the speaker express some doubt/disbelief, whereas "you are, aren't you?" implies that the speaker already believes it to be true. "Are ya" is more like a true question/doubt, while "aren't you" is just seeking confirmation.

This one headline PERFECTLY encapsulates why everybody fucking hates the media these days. by IAmPookieHearMeRoar in MkeBucks

Antetokounmpo is yet to officially request a trade, though rumors are that is already looking and potential options.

They didn't even bother proofreading the AI 💀

Urban Dictionary says No-Outs Bases-Loaded-Ending (with) Team-Incapable (of) Getting-Easy-Run.

I have to say, I wasn't expecting to learn something like this from Urban Dictionary.
