I've been using Firefox for decades, but this is getting a bit yikes.

First up, from @davidpierce.xyz:
Anthony Enzor-DeMeo says he thinks there’s room for another browser, even an AI browser — as long as you can trust it.

Alright!
Due to some nasty medical issues, I can't stream. Issues to the point I now have a severe lisp.
Due to living in America, it will take half a year to get this multi-thousand dollar issue fixed IF it can be fixed.
So streams are put on hold for at least several months.

What happens when an MMO veteran of 31 years plays Palia? No idea, but we'll find out.

With Epic doing a Harry Potter collab in Fortnite, knowing full well the harm it's creator continues to engage in, I'm not doing Fortnite Friday streams anymore.
Also I've canceled my Crew sub and Uninstalled the game.
It was a fun few years, but I just can't support this.

Sorry I'm super late to my stream, I'll do a short multi-game stream starting with Dragon Quest I&II 2DHD remake!
I'll probably be playing the second game and then it's whatever game after that, maybe even Blood Refreshed Supply or even Prodeus!

With my new sleep study, my insurance no longer pays for my CPAP despite the fact I was hospitalized for not breathing for a LONG time.
Of course, I can pay for one out of pocket now. (:
I bet I'll develop a fear of sleeping soon enough.
This whole thing is so nightmarish.

The nurse I just saw is a GOAT, I never seen a medical professional (born in NYC too BTW) dump on an employer so hard.
It's wild to see someone who has a heart, ever moreso she's been a nurse for 3 decades.
I learned a lot about my current hospital chain. :3

I'm learning so much stuff on the history of and why Healthcare in the southeast is soooo wretched and just why hospitals are allowed to not pay taxes while not offering free clinics out here.
