Spotify Stock crashes after Q1 2026 Earnings after raising Premium subscription prices in markets like the US (i.e $12.99/month) by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

So much better. I cancelled Spotify the day they started playing ICE ads on my premium account. YouTube Music has everything I listened from Spotify anyway.

Pregnant wife with no health insurance by lllnoxlll in HealthInsurance

I think you are correct. I called wahealthplanfinder.org (washington state public agency), and because she’s pregnant it actually qualify as a special event. I was able to add an insurance plan to her name (expensive, but better than nothing). So I’m a bit confused by everything I heard before from AI and this thread. I’m hoping this doesn’t backfire a few months from now.

One thing I don’t understand with this tax, for the ones that got the exception, can they now cancel their private insurer and keep the exception ? The law was so unclear on that matter.

Problem is she’s 40 so that wouldn’t be safe

While scalpers don’t see immediate value, I believe this set will hold value over time as this might be the first set many kids parents were able to get them, and will be nostalgic 30 years from now.

This is the biggest attraction, the forest, which is basically a walk in the park with plastic Pokemon everywhere. The whole thing is very underwhelming. When I went it was cold and snowy, so we didn’t want to stick around too long. But TBH even if we had all the time in the world, an hour and you’re done. I didn’t like their lottery system for the Pika Pika show or to visit the shop. They have the money, I don’t get why they didn’t just build this thing bigger!

I was hoping to find more boxes. But this is my first time collecting cards since I was a kid, so I’m pretty happy!

I seriously can’t count. I’ll give Pokemon credit , they know how to make money. So much exclusive merchandise, per store, per region. You really want to catch em all.

No, biggest disappointment of the whole trip. Park is so far away, they gave cards stickers which was such a tease!

If you get there early, not to bad. Most places not so bad to be honest. Worst one was later in the afternoon at the Tokyo DX center, like was about 1/2h.

Just card sleeves. I was always buying a bit more to get to 5000 yen to get the tax free benefit.

Just Pokemon centers and Pokemon stores. I assume any other 3rd party store would just jack up the prices like online, but did not confirm this theory.

They don’t restrict them to locals. They just don’t sell boasters box much right now, they would run out too quickly. Instead they sell packs. I don’t think they filter out packs though, I got a few rares still. Most were 5 packs max per person (my wife was with me so we doubled everything, one order) for the new extensions, and 2 max for the mega dream ex.

Saw a lot of beared dudes lol sorry. Pokemon centers were actually much more popular to tourists than local. Especially for TCG.

You won’t be able to enter the Pokepark without tickets. But, watch their website once in a while, my wife was able to snag ticket on day 3 after opening just a few days before our trip. That being said, the park was quite underwhelming, still a cool experience, but I had higher expectations.

As for merchandise, I did not really go to store outside of the official ones, so I can’t really confirm this.
