  • A perpetual license doesn’t mean the company supports it forever; you know that, right? I have a copy of Quickbooks 2015 that I got the license key for from a closing company for about $25. I will never have to pay another dime for it, it’s a perpetual license and will run indefinitely. I just don’t get any updates at all, and I can’t run anything that requires updates or subscriptions like payroll or advanced features. But that’s absolutely fine for my purposes and works the same for many, many people. This is how things should be - if I’m fine with using an outdated version, there is zero reason I need a subscription license.






  • This was the one. Every once in a while my brain just says “hey, remember that fucked up story where the kids had a smart room that became whatever they wanted and it spoiled them to the point they murdered their parents with lions? Wasn’t that fucked up? Let’s think about how fucked up it was for a while!”

    It was 7th grade for me, but still, I can’t believe we read that as kids.







  • Honestly, I am unoffended by that dynamic in my house. Our difference isn’t as great - my 5’5" to his 6’2" - but I just laugh and tell him to move when he tries to scrunch down to get things, and I sigh loudly and stare at him while stretching my arm up if I don’t want to climb for high things. We’re goofy like that, though, neither of us take it seriously and he teases me right back.








  • Yeah, getting obsessively into some kind of physical activity that gives you dopamine beyond just the basic “after workout” happy chems will absolutely transform your body. I started aerial arts at 33 after 3 years of being almost completely sedentary post-autoimmune-diagnosis and am closing in on 2 years now. I look and feel a million times better and I need to eat way more to keep up with my 8+ hours a week of intense acrobatic and calisthenic workouts xD

    Down side is that if I can’t go to class I’m a grumpy bitch, lol.
