And how can you change that as a lawmaker?
Edit: Of course this is meant to be a joke, because that’s the exact opposite of GOP. Capitalize on hate and drive hope into the bowels of hell.
They do all the time
Same opinion on Para-Olympics?
My font isn’t as noticeable with some books. This is a Project Gutenberg book, but recommend installing and checking it out. https://brailleinstitute.org/freefont
I posted my settings. Not too bad, but maybe my progressive lenses are helping haha
What’s your font and size?
I’m strolling through clouds with Atkinson Hyperlegible (highly recommend!) font bold 2 and size 3
Does it need access to anything local? If not, you could run it as an AWS Lambda on a schedule.
Terrible headline. From article: “In an email to BI, a spokesperson for the City of Edinburgh Council said it is not moving tenants out of temporary accommodation to make way for Swifties.”
How is a fact political?
Everything is not political.
Florida charges you after you’ve left, too.
“Free speech”
Mental health day reading at home… What are you reading currently?
I’m reading Prequel and Heaven & Earth Grocery Store (my image attachment failed a few times)
They don’t know Dearborn.
Back to reading after being sick for a bit! Happiness…
Updated to latest OS. Pretty cool. Enjoying some good reading since I’ve been out of commission for a bit.
What are folks thoughts on putting in personal information in for device recovery?
I’ve typically just use my first letter of name and phone number for device name.
Does anyone do anything different? What information do you include?
Also, just realized that I did put a device PIN on it, so. It sure if any information would be helpful if I lost it and it were found
Sorry. I’m still not tolerating corrupt governing. If you do, that’s okay.
Going out on a limb here… we don’t tolerate it. There isn’t much stopping them though, esp with a stacked SCOTUS and GQP.
She should be removed from case and impeached.
Good to know. Thanks. I am hoping I am not on waitlist long, because I really like using features that sometimes require network.
Library loan expired
I am reading ‘Prequel’ by Rachel Maddow. Great book. I came down with a terrible cold that has sidelined my ability to focus. Can’t read while not feeling well. Anyhow… I put myself back on ‘Libby waitlist’ for library loan.
In meanwhile, I figured it can’t returned if I put it into ‘Airplane-mode’; Is that right?
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY ALMOST NEW YEAR!!!
Lol. Two books in one kindle. Reading a chapter of one then switching to other and reading a chapter. Rinse. Repeat.
Two books at once.. Have only attempted a couple of times, but more fun on a Kindle!
I find if I choose two radically different subjects, or genres, it is less challenging and doesn’t feel overwhelming. For instance, I was reading ‘The Republic’ by Plato and ‘The Nasty Bits’ by Anthony Bourdain last time.
Now I am reading ‘Prequel’ by Rachel Maddow (non-fiction) and ‘The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store’ by James McBride (fiction).
Are you a two-timer?
Reading ‘Prequel’ by Rachel Maddow… What are you reading?
Started this book and am really enjoying it thus far. It is a great follow-up, or prequel, if you will, to her podcast ‘Ultra’. Fascinating story, and a warning…
Community challenge…
Make a post. Engage. Interact. Show me your kindle. Converse in Lemmy Universe!
Cleaning a dirty device
My PW11g is super smudgy. Anyone have any advice on cleaning?
My device is currently naked, sleeveless and livin’ da dream!
I’m reading ‘The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store’ by James McBride. What are you reading?
Really enjoying it so far!
Waiting for food and reading a good book will never dull…re
‘The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store’ by James McBride
Don’t know if I’m late to game, but new iOS is posted!
Version 5.16.4 – October 2023
Here's what's new:
Goodreads: Streamlined experience to track reading progress.
I did it! Wasn't long, but I triumphed!
Kids were getting ready for school and there was some downtime before I started for work. The dog was somehow calm (puppy warning... getting a puppy is just crazy -- it's like we have a new toddler!)
I read for a good 10 minutes, or so, and am going to hit the rest of that chapter tonight!
Hope everyone had a nice weekend, and a good start to your week...
I haven't read in a bit, but... There is hope!
I have to admit, I have not read in a bit, or posted for that matter... I think it is a little of parental exhaustion, back-to-school madness, busy at work, etc. I'm a little embarrassed, but I'd rather be up front about it than not.
This weekend sounds like a great time to pick up my Kindle and read even for a few minutes, a few pages...
I didn't realize that subscribers have ballooned here! Welcome everyone, and please, please, please contribute if you have time.
Have a great weekend all, and feel free to share your story of reading breaks, why you may have had one, what brought you back or what tools or tips you have for me or others...
Be kind to each other and read on!
