I agree with the others but Tangled doesn't have a prince, there's no man running the house, there's just 2 women. It's more of an abusive parent story than a sexist one.

Wow you get to phone yours? We get an awful convoluted website where you have to type in all your details every time, including pointing on a diagram of a person where it hurts and explaining the problem. It takes forever to fill out and you submit it and then wait however long they want to triage you. Tbf if it's fairly urgent they are fairly quick but it's the worst experience when you're sick.

Then maybe you get a phone call with a doctor who basically just tells you to wait and maybe they prescribe something which then the local pharmacy won't have in stock. Contact your doctor again to get it changed to something else? Good luck! Many days later you get your prescription after you finish needing it.

What does that have to do with sexism? An evil woman kidnapped her, used her for her magic, locked her away in a tower and used fear to keep her inside.

Yea we loved that game. Overcooked 1 and 2, moving out. Currently playing Minecraft again, teaching our daughter to play it. RE 5 had a good balance of fighting and puzzles.

I played 5 a lot because it was coop and I could play it with my wife, I need more good coop games!

Every few years since the mid 2000s I've dual booted Linux (often Ubuntu) briefly before removing it again and just using windows and then I stopped for many years. I've gradually become less happy with windows, increasing ads and tracking but then the announcement of recall made it clear I had to switch. I was going to wait but then windows 24H2 update broke my Bluetooth audio so that was the last straw.

I installed endeavourOS on a separate drive and really liked it. GNOME at first. Then I installed nixOS and for me was almost perfect but I couldn't get a few things to work like PIAs GUI app and doing some software development was more awkward than I liked.

Now I'm back on endeavourOS but with KDE plasma and it's great.

I have to book the next appointment immediately after getting my hair cut and put it on Google calendar otherwise I won't get it done for half a year, mostly when my wife complains at me enough.

You really have to both want children, it cannot just be to make the other happy. Having a kid is life changing. My wife and I both wanted a kid and it's been the hardest thing I've ever done. It definitely does not strengthen or fix relationships, any problems get amplified and many more new ones are added due to the extra responsibility placed upon both of you.

I wouldn't ever want to go back because I wanted a child and she's amazing. It has taken everything I had though. If I hadn't wanted kids and just did it for my wife then it would have been unbearable.

Love Matt Parkers videos, makes math more fun, great to share it with the kids.

Theres a YouTube video where the presenter demonstrates DOOM running (or not) with varying values of Pi that's quite interesting: Non Euclidean DOOM

Loved playing It Takes Two with my wife, such a great game I wished they made another one. The more couch coop games the better.
