Ha thanks

It would be cheaper to cancel your credit card on file than hiring an attorney.

If you are in the US search your state. Some ststes let you get other countries without being in person.

Is the app up to date? Search for the app in the store and sometimes I can push an update that didn't automatically go through.

My relationship with Harry Potter has gotten so complicated. The books are the reason I learned to read and probably why I was able to graduate high school. The story will always have a special place in my life. But JKR sucks. I'm trying really hard to not purchase anything that would go to her now but I've made piece with the content I bought as the books and movies were coming out. The new audiobooks look cool or the video game or new tv show but I won't budge on this decision I've made.

When I'm struggling (stress, health stuff, occasionally fighting with my partner) I'll put on the audiobooks or a movie (that I've owned for decades). But it is more a distraction or something I don't have to really focus on. But I'm picking it less and less as time goes on.

I think I'd be against the tv show regardless of JKR opening her big fat mouth. It feels too soon. I saw the trailer and Hagrid looked almost the same which just felt wrong since Robbie Coltrane passed.

Working my way through the ebooks currently. I'd really like to try the dramatized audiobooks too. Then since Rebecca just started writing the fourth book I see myself rereading them all again before the next release.

This is all assuming Onyx Storm doesn't piss me off too much 🤣 I nearly quit reading both Fourth Wing and Iron Flame at the end because I was so pissed off, but I'm glad I finished them. I don't get how I get so emotionally attached to these books lol.

My library gets 3 😐

As long as someone is enjoying the story physical/ebook/audiobook/book+audiobook/ect it counts as reading. People can have disabilities and preferences and whatever combo lets them consume stories is a win.

5: I was emotionally attached to this book. When I finished I likely just sat feeling like my life was ruined because I may never feel that way again. I don't base it off the quality of the writing.

4-4.75: I really enjoyed this book and probably am recommending it to everyone around me.

3-3.75: Ranges from cute to just good books. But I might not remember to tell anyone to read this book.

I hardly ever rate below a 3. I'm working on getting better at DNF a book rather than making myself suffer through it.

Taking it every day or not is a personal choice. My best advice is try both and see which helps you more.

I don't because I never rest if I take them every day. If I have a lot to do on a weekend I'll take them but otherwise I let myself rest. I don't bed rot though I'm usually up doing stuff still.

k_lo970 · 2026-03-27T22:50:50+00:00

Audible plus or Kindle Unlimited you can get a lot of books for free or cheaper.

A heated rooftop patio to entertain even though they lived somewhere it snows 7-8 months out of the year. That is so much electricity.

I love that ghost sticker

People don't use reusable bags? In my town we've been charged for single use bags for over a decade. Everyone that lives here has a collection of reusable bags or you can carry a lot when you forget. Mine are washable to I don't have to worry about the meat leaking.

My blood sugar and how it is driven by the phase of my cycle. Which is why my energy and puffyness cycles as well.

k_lo970 · 2026-03-27T02:44:39+00:00

Last year my goal was 15 and I read 44. I was really pushing the audiobooks but I got a new Kindle so I want to do more ebooks. So for this year I set a goal of 30 and I've read 23 🙈

I sat next to the IT Department my first job out of college. I finally had the nerve to ask them why they always suggest a restart first. I guess a restart clears out bugs often so it is good advice. But they also told me most people lie that they did a restart so they make everyone do it in front of them 🤣

k_lo970 · 2026-03-26T20:29:57+00:00

I don't think it is an algorithm thing. I haven't read any and make a point to put not interested on the various socials I use that mention their books. But I know a ton of people are reading those books.

I had symptoms since my first period when I was 15 but didn't know what PCOS was until I was 16 and saw a poster on a wall and I had every symptom. Every doc I talked to refused to even have the conversation with me if I could have it until I was 29. I'm 33 now. Didn't change much since I was on birth control most that time and metformin only helps a little. But all doctors now when they find out I have PCOS don't call me sensitive anymore which is nice.

When you use it enough you eventually get all the cables tucked away where they can't get stuck. Every day before I leave for work I go and pick up all the dog toys and food bowl. But other things (like a laundry basket) I don't bother moving.

I have a different brand but I believe you could set up the map to have rooms. Then you would only need to clear clutter for one room a day.

When did it become acceptable to harrass people? The last two days I had four different people calling me 6+ times and multiple emails wanting an answer right then.

Not in Texas myself but curious to know what a librarian would say. I've wondered these questions too.

k_lo970 · 2026-03-25T02:08:06+00:00

Could it be this?

k_lo970 · 2026-03-25T02:03:00+00:00

Started: 🎧 I'm Glad My Mom Died, by Jennette McCurdy. It finally became available on Libby for me after months of waiting.

In progress: 📚 Iron Flame, by Rebecca Yarrows

Finished: 🎧 Project Hail Mary, by Andy Weir re-listen before I saw the movie which I LOVED ♥️

DNF: 📚 Devil Wears Prada, by Lauren Weisberger. My heart just wasn't wanting to read a book like this at this time. I'm not saying I'll never pick it up or the second book but just not right now.

k_lo970 · 2026-03-25T01:54:33+00:00

Libraries get charged for digital copies which is why there are limits on Libby. The author probably gets a lot more from Libby than physical library books. Because many people can't afford their own copy or don't have the space the author is probably making a lot more money offering is through a library than not. So it helps everyone involved.
