Lol she might possibly be an upgrade!

Good heavens, I’d hate to see which co-worker I’d get paired with! That’s some type of Russian Roulette! 🤣🤢

We had a new group in from another regional site come for training.

It turned out the one was actively also a prostitute. She was freely distributing her social media, showing people videos of herself, and asking us where the secluded parts of the campus were so she could do her thing with some of the scientists.

She didn’t do very much actual work, or at least not what she was supposed to be doing there. I give her credit for seeming to be very proud of her side gig. She seemed to really enjoy it. I think she just eventually stopped coming in after they went back to their own site, so maybe she did find herself a scientist.

Definitely the wildest person I’ve ever worked with.

I started donating to the local animal rescue. None of them get any public funding whatsoever, so all the money is going to the animals’ care.

They’re pretty open with what it costs to take care of the various animals, and I feel it’s a critical job they do.

Haven’t gotten any spam so far either, so that is respectful.

Came here to make sure For All Mankind was mentioned. I had so much fun watching this.

She needs premium, dude!

Preeeemium!!!

Duuuuuuuuude!!!

Not too much up my alley this season, so I watched Shikanoko and Plus Sized Elf.

I have one episode left of Shikanoko. It was unique, and fun for what it is. The songs were great. I enjoyed the antagonism of the whole thing. Would I watch another season? Not sure, but I don’t regret watching this one.

Two episodes of Plus Sized Elf left, but I’ve read the manga. Read it and watched it mainly to see what they’d do with it. At first, it seemed like they were going to actually put more health and fitness stuff in it, but it really fell back to drawn out scenes of slapstick nudity. Nothing wrong with that in itself, but I feel they could have done more with it. Also, many potato puns weren’t translated, so most will miss out on half the jokes. The translation I read had them all, and they were one of my favorite parts.

I will say, I really enjoyed the cast though. They all made the characters as likeable as they were in my head reading the manga. If you’re checking it out more for the curiosity than the nudity, it really isn’t terrible.

Somewhat off topic, but this season being light for me had me repeatedly going back to Delicious in Dungeon even though I was not really enjoying it. The characters were likeable again, but it felt pointless to me watching people eat fake food, though some monsters were really creative. I kept hearing wait until they get back to the red dragon, so I persisted.

Holy heck, did this show flip a switch to awesomeness! The back half of the season was great and I was left wanting more. The plot twists and the surprising backgrounds of the characters and new characters really made things come alive and give a much deeper sense of urgency and delivered much more than the episodic snack of the week format was doing for me.

If I had anything else even remotely exciting, I would not have stuck it out that long.

Looking forward to see what they do with Uzumaki and Ranma. Also see they have a Gintama special movie thing of the Kintama arc coming out, so that should be fun as well.

The bagel place is like that sometimes where they haven’t made the buzz yet and they let us pick. The Jamaican place has seemed the same every time, but it’s a great portion of assorted items. We also got good stuff from a vegan, non-every allergen place. The prices were premium, but the stuff was really tasty, and even though we didn’t have special diet restrictions, other family members do, do we could promote it to them. We’ve also gotten to try different things we don’t normally order, like we get a big bag of pepperoni rolls from a pizza place, and the other place is the sausage food truck thing outside Home Depot which was actually really tasty.

Only once did we feel a place was a little less generous, but it still wasn’t a bad deal for the price, just in comparison to other grab bags.

It’s got us to try both local stuff we’ve never gotten to check out, and also things a little further away than we’d normally go to because it’s a cheap adventure with really nothing to lose.

It does vary by day and location, but the surprise is part of the fun. I’m between suburb and rural and there’s a decent number of choices, and new things get added with some regularity. It also makes it fun to use while traveling.

I thought this is also a nice one to recommend here as it actually started as a European app, so it’s nice that it’s not US only, so non-Americans may actually have better luck for a change.

Oral B Smart 5000

Got it free in exchange for a survey. It’s got Bluetooth and an app and I thought it was ridiculous and I never would have paid for it.

I was still with my ex, so it’s been going on strong for at least 8 years now, and I use generic brush heads just fine. I think oral B had the highest speed if that’s your thing.

I like the Bluetooth timer module because it has a fun face on it that tells me if I’m doing good that reminds me of a tamagotchi.

The battery won’t hold the charge for days like it did, so I keep it on the base now, and it still holds enough juice to get through us brushing with it. Whenever it dies, I plan to replace it with whatever the current model is.

Web Video Caster is probably my most used app. It casts just about anything to just about anything. It’s worked better than anything else on my Chromecast and when I’ve needed to connect to Roku.

It supports IPTV, playlist creation, bookmarks, watch history, recent played, resume from last position, and a ton more.

The dev has been great whenever I’ve reported bugs and has added a few requests over the years.

Too Good To Go has been awesome since I heard about it on How I Built This. It’s designed to reduce food waste, but I think that makes it sound less appealing than it is.

Participating eateries estimate how much product they will have to throw out at the end of the day. It’s not bad stuff, but stuff they made too much of. Instead of tossing it, they set it aside, and you come take it for pennies on the dollar. No extra work for them, cheap mystery box of eats for you.

We’ve tried many fancy local bakeries we couldn’t really afford, tried new local pizza places, got some great frozen treats and an ice cream cake from the premium ice cream place, and some great Jamaican takeout from a place near my work that’d normally be out of the way.

We also stock up on bagels from the Manhattan Bagel. They’re normally around a dollar each, but we get 15-18 for $5 and then we freeze them. Been doing that for months now, saving a ton of money. Sometimes we get misshapen ones, it flavors we don’t really like, but we still come out way ahead, or we learn different ways to use things, like the salt bagels we didn’t originally like.

I only started using Reddit regularly when I learned of the third party apps, so when they killed that, this is the thing all the other quitters were talking about.

Tried out a few apps and instances. It seemed very slow and quiet, but much nicer as far as the personalities. Was just a lurker at Reddit, so I had nothing to leave behind, so I stayed here.

It’s not quite as nice now as during the mass migration, but I’ve found a nice niche for myself here and I participate much more often than I ever would have at Reddit. There’s a decent audience now, but still enough room to find your own voice and to build the type of community you want.

This is the one where the ocean turned purple wasnt it?

I haven’t read the manga, which my understanding is what the reboot was following. I watched it now out of curiosity, due to the original anime being one of my main gateways to anime as a whole.

If I hadn’t seen the original multiple times, I probably would have been lost at multiple points in the reboot. Characters seemed to pop up out of nowhere for unknown reasons.

My girlfriend had never seen the original, and she originally wasn’t paying attention as I watched this on my own, but after a few episodes she got pulled into it as well, so it seemed to make enough sense to someone unfamiliar that they’d at least be curious.

I enjoyed it mainly because it got me to think so many new things about one of my early favorite anime universes. It filled in a few gaps I had, such as I liked how we got to spend more time with Project Seeds and learned more about the Plants species and Knives’ overall goals.

It made my list because it exceeded my expectations as I was not looking forward to CGI animation and I was concerned about them “ruining” the story I had in my head, but the animation was beautiful, VA was great, and I think about the universe of the story more than I have in years.

It’s totally subjective what anyone else will take away, but everything else on the list I went into blind, with no expectations. Trigun I came into very biased due to my love for the original, and expected eww to meh, but as a whole, it gave me a great time.

• Supercub
• Cestvs
• Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated
• Aharen Is Indecipherable
• The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting
• Do It Yourself
• Tomo-chan Is a Girl
• Trigun Stampede
• Insomniacs After School (read it but havent watched the anime)
• Love/Hate: Farming Life in Another World
  I’ll agree with OP on Summertime Render and Days at the Breakwater as well!

If we’re counting continued in the 20s:

• Golden Kamuy
• Ancient Magus Bride . .

I like the way you think!

Rye crisps are the best part of snack mix to me!

Fig and Pig is a great combo for pizza!

Thank you for sharing all this! This has been one of the most interesting posts I’ve come across in a long time.

He keeps pretty good rhythm!
