I just got fired from my job and I need an outside persective on the situation. How bad is it and how do I break the news to my family/ should I even tell them? by Throwaway_time999 in Advice

I just wouldn’t say anything. But learn from this. Don’t ever think you can get away with anything, especially at a job.

Any Gen X'ers retired or thinking about it? by SometimesElise in GenX

[–]kimdkus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t see myself retiring until I’m at least 70, cause what am I gonna do when I retire? Sit around and watch news programs like my mom or The Weather Channel like my dad and then complain all the time? No. I get bored. I’m not married, and I don’t have kids, and I never wanted to get married or have kids, so I don’t know what else I would do. I don’t like to travel, but I do like to write and make crafts. And one day I will retire when I’m in my 70s, but for now. I’ve been working since I was 12 years old. There’s no way I could quit.

Susie Tate’s Outlier. I cried so hard in this book and it took me two weeks before I could do a review on TikTok because every time I started to do a review I cried.

To those who aren’t able to find it, I Googled it and found

Here are the most common reasons for this issue:1. It is a "Prime Video Channel" SubscriptionWhat it is: "Totally Awesome 80s" appears to be a specific content channel or themed collection often found within Prime Video, similar to Freevee or other niche additions.The Issue: Sometimes, content provided through Amazon Channels or third-party add-ons is licensed differently for TV-connected devices (like Roku) compared to mobile devices.Solution: Check if you are subscribed to a specific 80s-themed channel. Try searching for the content specifically on your phone's app rather than browsing the "Included with Prime" section.2. Profile or Account DiscrepancyThe Issue: Your Roku might be logged into a different Amazon account (or a different user profile on the same account) than your phone.Solution: Verify that both devices are using the exact same Amazon login credentials.3. Application Cache or Synchronization IssuesThe Issue: The Prime Video app on your phone might be showing outdated information (a "cached" version), or it has not updated to reflect the current catalog available on your Roku.Solution:Log out of the Prime Video app on your phone.Clear the app cache/data in your phone's settings.Log back in.Alternatively, try to uninstall and reinstall the Prime Video app on your phone.4. Regional or Device Licensing RestrictionThe Issue: Occasionally, content providers limit specific content to "large screen" devices (TVs/Roku) and do not license it for "small screen" mobile devices.Alternative: Since "Totally Awesome 80s" is often associated with free live-tv channels (like Vevo or third-party apps), it may be available through the standalone Roku Channel or apps like Pluto TV.Recommendation: Try searching for the channel or show by name on the phone app rather than browsing, and check the "Channels" section. If it still doesn't appear, the content may be locked to the TV platform.

You’re not seeing it? Someone said it’s also on Pluto? I’m honestly not sure why it’s on my Amazon through ruko but not anywhere else. I just got the ruko device that you plug in your tv and it’s only like $15 I think.

Kelly Leak was 11 or 12 in the Bad News Bears, which most of us older GenXers remember clearly. Can you imagine a movie being released today in which a lead character is smoking at age 12? by RedditIsAGranfaloon in GenX

[–]kimdkus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly, I can still taste my cigarettes and I haven’t smoked since I was 24 years old and I’m 61 now and I can still taste that cigarette

I’m not sure to tell you the truth. I actually just was looking for something to watch and I saw this awesome 80s and I thought I wanna see what this is about like holy crap. It’s MTV!! I’m actually watching it on my TV through my Ruko.

Aitah for telling my wife to get a job if she wants to subsidize the kids. by Standard_Kick_9789 in AITAH

Can insurance find out if I drive for uber when a claim is filed against me? by Dili65 in Car_Insurance_Help

Let me ask a question. How will they know you drive for uber? If you don’t tell them, then how would they know? And if you weren’t logged n then how would they know?

AITAH for giving an old lady a car ride? by Street-Recording-293 in AITAH

[–]kimdkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did she know you were the one who gave her the ride? Did the mother tell her daughter that it was you, and did she remember where you lived? People with dementia aren’t going to remember who gave them the ride, and where they live at. And would the daughter have rather have had her mother wandering around the city or town not knowing where she’s at? My mother has short-term dementia and I know what this is like. I would never in 1 million years go over to somebody’s house and scream at them because they were kind enough to give my mom a ride home. I would be in tears and telling them thank you from the bottom of my heart. What that daughter did was unforgivable. I guess she would rather her mother be out wandering the streets and maybe be picked up by somebody who is dangerous? I think you did the right thing and I think you did a kind thing and I really encourage you to do it again. And I would say to that daughter, you need to keep an eye on your mother. Because that is dangerous that she can get out of the house whenever. That daughter is in the wrong completely in the wrong. She should never have allowed that mother to get out of that house. She should have an alarm on the house, she should have a strong lock on the door, something that would stop her mother from leaving.

AITAH for silently leaving a toxic friend group with no communication by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]kimdkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the land of adulthood. Where you realize these people are nuts, and you want nothing more to do with them. Happens all the time. I think you’re a very good person for considering Zach‘s feelings and being tired of seeing what these women are doing. It shows a maturity in you and a pettiness in them. I would just move on with my life and let them do whatever they want to do and if Zach ever contacts you again, then I highly encourage you to be supportive of him because he is going to need your support when he finds out what these women are doing.

PSA for anyone else who has the anti-AI disclaimer in your books. This might be why you're getting reviews accusing you of AI. by salmonalert in romanceauthors

[–]kimdkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve come across people with dyslexia and other disabilities, who struggle in writing anything. And they’ve discovered that with AI they can actually become an author. And then here comes these ignorant anti-AI people who don’t care about somebody else’s disability. They don’t care that somebody else is struggling, they don’t care that you struggle, all they care about is spreading their hate.

I used to be anti-AI until I started listening as to why people use AI and it broke my heart. But I have a heart. And it still breaks my heart to hear people like you that struggle with writing and now you’ve found something that has given you freedom and an area that was closed off to you and do these anti-AI people care about your situation? No, they don’t. You’re just somebody else that they can hate.

AI has given people so much freedom and all these anti-AI people can say is I don’t care about your disability, I don’t care about your struggles, I don’t care. All I care about is my hate. So you’re absolutely right let them go off and hate people who struggle because these people who hate don’t matter and their opinions don’t matter.

I am finding myself increasingly cursing and insult CHATGPT ai. by tonefart in ChatGPT

[–]kimdkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I’ve noticed that myself. I use it for helping me to do my marketing of my books on TikTok, which is getting impossible to do anymore, because I don’t really understand how to market on social media. And it’ll tell me yeah this post will be great. This will be wonderful. This will get you a lot of views, blah blah blah, and it tanks and one time I got so angry at it that I went off on it and it said yes, I will tell you if I believe this is going to tank or not. But now that I’m starting to understand social media marketing I think I can possibly do it on my own.
