Wow, can’t believe American healthcare is still segregated. Literally only for mayos 😔

I thought <3 was a set of balls
Team Humans Vs Team AI is a very fun option. Lots of civs have really fun team synergy.
Civ 6 was made much more to be a digital board game. The combination of little to no multiplicative bonuses and generally small adjacency bonuses means you have to micro manage city planning all the time. It bombards the player with so many individual decisions that each make little impact.
Civ 5 felt much more like an empire simulator. The biggest bonuses come from making “big” decisions, like which policy tree, who/when to war, which ideology. As the game progressed, there was typically no need to micromanage.
The combat in civ 6 is atrocious after they removed the ability to build roads offensively for war until you unlock military engies (way too late in the game). Civ 5’s road system took ages to get up and running, but the payoff was immense.
The civics tree system is better, but the policy card system is broken. It gives players too much flexibility, so everyone ends up running the same/similar set of cards every time. Tradition + Rationalism is a meme in Civ 5, but it did offer more esoteric strategies with different trees.
If she is fluent in English then there are some legit options (as in, will comply with minimum wage laws).
There are tech “consulting”/talent agencies which offer gig work where you help assess AI, i.e. rate and correct LLM responses, correct road signs etc.
There are also some foreign news stations which run English programs, but pay gig workers to rate/correct their pronunciation.
You use Linux because of your superiority complex and need to be seen as cool.
I use Linux because I’m broke.
We are not the same.

Why bother filling it with land when you can just find some crusty old map with some dashes on it as evidence that it belongs to you
People talk a lot about single payer healthcare, but some legal scholars propose a single payer judicial system. I.e. private lawyers are banned, and everyone must use publicly funded lawyers.
This would make prosecution accessible to the masses, and successfully defending not related to how much money you have.
A lot of the academics associated (formerly or currently) with Chicago Booth are highly respected as economists but highly conservative. As influential and famous they may be, their personal blogs and twitter account are yikes.
E.g. Harald Uhlig, Joch H Cochrane
The frogs only stayed in the water because Friedrich Goltz lobotomized the frogs beforehand. Which makes it a perfect metaphor because the Murdoch media has definitely lobotomized the public.

You can try to make an additional “user” that the TV uses, and set user specific transcode options.
More passive media formats include drama CDs (again mostly for Japanese media) and radio plays (fallen out of favour). Both of these usually come with extra promotional material such as a booklet with the script and some images.
Some audio books and podcasts with higher production values also have extra companion guides/supplementary content. Though, these are mainly for non fiction texts to display diagrams etc.
If you are into non fiction, Ken Burns documentaries are basically audio books that happen to have visual content. A less traditional format are museum audio guides, such as the British Museum and Louvre apps.
You’ve basically described a simple visual novel. Much more of a thing for Japanese media, but the idea has recently started to catch on for Western media.
For example, Pillars of the Earth was adapted as a point and click game/visual novel. These are very rare though.
Collegehumor did this exact skit a decade ago.
This is the green light that Gatsby was orgastic about
On the surface it seems reasonable, but it tends to have misogynistic undertones, especially if said towards strangers.
It’s like when the paparazzi publishes photos of celebrities with no makeup without their consent. If her makeup skills are good, she gets accused of “deceiving” people about her real age/looks. If her makeup skills are bad, she just gets called ugly.
