I’m not American (and I assume you are), so I’m afraid I can’t help with that 😅

Educational books at or slightly above her reading level? My kid is crazy about dinosaurs, so he’ll read and re-read books about them even though he doesn’t understand all the words yet.

Ah, I didn’t know it was blocked. Found it through a VPN. Thanks!

If only there were social media platforms which aren’t controlled by advertisement revenue.

I sometimes find it really hard to understand why people keep subjecting themselves to these kind of things.

I’ve trained calisthenics, plyometrics and power yoga at home for years and I’m very happy with the results. Just search on Youtube for advice and workouts you like. Use your common sense: look for people focusing on tried-and-true ideas and don’t use performance enhancing drugs.

My favorite channels are Athlean-X, Calisthenicmovement, The Stone Circle and Breathe and Flow.

Also, get a mirror or film yourself to check your form, or have someone watch you. After a while, you’ll start feeling whether something is right or wrong, but at the start it’s useful to have a visual check.

Block them or move to another platform. I block everyone on Facebook who feels the need to make negative comments, regardless of whether I expect to encounter them again. Really cleans up the place.

Yeah, that’s true.

Beside what Citizen Kong said, I wouldn’t start playing a game right after release. Give them a few weeks to iron out the bugs.

People were sharing all sorts of conspiracy theories about how Bethesda is trying to erase F1, 2 and NV from history before Howard did the interview, like here: https://www.pcgamer.com/movies-tv/in-which-i-mostly-debunk-the-latest-fallout-controversy-that-claims-todd-howard-used-the-fallout-show-to-retcon-non-bethesda-fallout-games/#article-comments

It’s tiresome to see the wrong interpretation repeated, even after they set the story straight.

Personally, I feel they always intended the fall to be the nuking, but someone put the wrong date on the blackboard, and now they’re trying to get the story straight again :P It does allow for some interesting possibilities, though.

The timeline in the show only says “The fall of Shady Sands”. While that was unclear, Howard did explain it, and it’s ridiculous to keep sticking to the whole “they deleted Fallout: New Vegas from canon” theory.

Tod Howard said the nuke fell after F:NV: https://www.ign.com/articles/the-big-fallout-interview-todd-howard-and-jonathan-nolan-answer-our-burning-questions-about-season-1

Isn’t the first issue fixed with Scaled sorting?

For me, it will start feeling “right” about 15 minutes after I start studying or working. You need a while to get into it, to get warmed up.
