Maybe a really nice edition of a book you already love, from a luxury publisher like The Folio Society or Easton Press?

I was a kbin.social user and I migrated over to kbin.earth after it went down.

If you still haven't tried anything FromSoft has made in the past decade, please do.

They specify in the study that the participants were "non-expert poetry readers." I'd be interested to see the same experiment repeated with English professors, or even just English majors. Folks with a lot of experience reading poetry. With exposure to its history, its notable works, and its different styles.

There was a moment in my life when I thought that perhaps I was outgrowing games... that they were just not really designed for the entertainment of adult human beings in a way that could satisfy me. Not one of my old stand-bys could, as you said, "scratch the itch" or provide "the same enjoyment that it used to." I found myself spending more time with films and books.

Then I got into FromSoft games and indie titles, and within a year I realized games still held incredible experiences for me. I hadn't outgrown games. I had only outgrown the bland slop represented by most AAA releases, and especially by online multiplayer releases. Personally, I'd recommend giving up on looking for a new 1000+ hour obsession. Instead I'd recommend seeking a broad array of 10-100 hour loves. If you haven't already tried them, for me a love of gaming was saved primarily by: Dark Souls, FTL, Spelunky, and Hollow Knight.

They pretty much tried that for a while, with their whole 'Nintendo YouTube Creators Program' bullshit.

Just have someone ask him what kind of 'nasty things he thinks democrats use the internet for.' He'll start rattling off things that are way too specific and definitely projection.

On my phone, I just access YouTube through the firefox browser app with ublock origin installed. Works perfectly.

No 'probably' about it. Can't speak to all of the titles being removed, but they dropped this trailer almost a year ago.

Vanguard recently started offering a savings account that currently has a 4.15% APY (their 'cash plus' account).

If OP wants to park the money in a savings account for easier access than a mutual fund, that's both a more reliable institution and a better rate.
