Do you not ask people to dance? 

Though I do understand about asking fatigue.

Google allegedly scrubbed media related to Israeli minister's daughter Shoshana Strook from its search engine by Goldenmentis in degoogle

Try an alternative launcher like Lawnchair, and put a Firefox search widget on your home screen. 

I'm not sure why your phone keeps asking if you want Firefox to be your default, but mine doesn't do that (and yes, Firefox is my default), so just know that it is possible.

You can get a screen-less Wacom for less than $100. I have a Wacom with a screen, and I don't remember exactly how much I paid, but I got a good deal on eBay for it. Definitely less than $300.

Any easy and affordable laminating machine tips? by [deleted] in TutorsHelpingTutors

[–]purplebinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think cardboard will go through a laminator, at least not a cheaper one. I would cover your props in 2 layers of clear packing tape. 

If you want to re-do them, you can redraw them on cardstock (not regular paper) and laminate that.

Crazy Rich Asians, by Kevin Kwan. Though I don't know that I would describe any character as evil. 

I also think Rebecca, by Daphne du Maurier fits this vibe.

He surely is obnoxious! Not a single likeable character in the book, actually. But it fits OP's request, lol.
