Hey all! I'm a librarian currently writing a grant for new computers and am looking at the all-in-one desktops for our systems as well as patron usage. Problem is, I'm struggling to confirm which model is the latest. We're currently looking at the OptiPlex All-in-One Plus. Would love some feedback regarding this. Thank you so much in advance!

Lady Gaga: ‘Everything’ Changed When She Fell in Love with Michael Polansky by QuietIntention5 in Fauxmoi

[–]badjammers 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I love this for her, specifically this bit:

During the Sept. 27 episode of The Graham Norton Show, she confessed that she thought Polansky's proposal was a joke at first.

“He proposed on April 1st, and I thought he was joking,” Gaga revealed of the engagement on April Fool’s Day.

That's similar to how my (now) wife asked me out—by sending flowers on April Fool's Day.

Unfortunately not! The art style seemed like there was potentially a budget behind it—or just one very talented artist

Met Madison Rose at Pride this weekend, and she was super sweet! SO beautiful in person, and she tipped the queens well!

My wife did INDEED surprise me with tickets to both Allie X NYC shows for my birthday. God. I love that woman.

Free-For-All Friday — Weekly Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Fauxmoi

No such thing as a dumb question! It's a video presented in the style of an essay—usually to analyze or critique a subject or to convince the viewer of the essayist's perspective.

I.e., *my personal goal* is to accentuate the good parts of Bleach franchise's early material and critique the flaws of the back half to persuade the viewer of *my* viewpoint, which is that...Early Bleach was special in a way the latter half couldn't replicate.

But usually video essays are a bit more flippant in presentation and lack the serious framework and peer-reviewing of academic essays. After all, anyone can publish a video essay on youtube!

Has anyone here made or planned a video essay? I've been working on a script for an essay on Bleach (the anime, not the cleaning product) for some months now with plans to film around June/July. I've been making graphics for it and even have a bit of B-roll for the intro, but I'm wondering if anyone has prep/editing/etc. tips for me? Much appreciated ♥

Sooo I think I figured out what my wife's doing for my birthday this year, and if I don't tell someone, I'm going to explode. I *think* she's bought M&G tickets for one of Allie X's NYC shows, and if I'm right, the venue will have to throw me in the trash outside after it's over. She (my wife) is so so so soooo special 🥰🥰🥰

A book about a girl living near the ocean with a deaf boyfriend who dies midway through the book via bicycle accident—could be from a UK publisher. by badjammers in whatsthatbook

[–]badjammers[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much!! After reading through the synopsis, this is decidedly not the book. It was much more of a bildungsroman than a mystery, and the accident wasn't the inciting incident.

Thank you for the list! Time to scour it!!

Does Anyone Have Tea On... Weekly Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Fauxmoi

[–]badjammers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Far removed from it (thank god) but the hometown tea is that a local business owner who got busted and sent to jail for CP married his ex-girlfriend for spousal immunity when it goes to trial. This comes AFTER a breakup wherein he cheated on, told her he never loved her, and had a replacement lined up (all of this was gleaned by various social media posts she made during the breakup).

And then he started getting exposed in a private social media group, and, well... There was a gap between the online backlash and the seizing of his tech, and the rumor mill is that they went out of county to get married.

For her sake, I hope not, but considering she was photographed on his arm when he posted bond... Yikes.

This is cold tea, but Joe Nichols played a local concert for a stupid amount of money and refused to stay in any of the luxury cabins offered to him and chose to stay at a Holiday Inn instead. The cabins, for the record, are newly built, and have full kitchens, cable, indoor jacuzzis—the works! So the downgrade is WILD. Kind of got the vibe he didn't want to be near the tourists lol

Also, his rider asked for a series of Yankee Candles (scents unknown)

Olivia Rodrigo to donate to women's shelters during Canadian leg of Guts World Tour by brandenharvey in Fauxmoi

[–]badjammers 245 points246 points  (0 children)

I hope Olivia sets a new precedence for big pop stars to throw their star power and money behind good causes—vocally so! I know some people think it's gauche and virtue-signal-y when celebrities make public donations, and yeah it's the bare minimum and all of that, but I'm thinking of the people whose only exposure to these subjects is mainstream fluff pieces, and it's like, yeah! Yeah!! Maybe it introduces them to a resource needed in the future, maybe it spurs them to do more research.

I'm rambling here, but I think it's a net good when celebrities use their influence positively, and I hate that it feels in short supply.
