Instead of getting lost in relistens, I'd like to spend this month just listening to new (to me) fiction podcasts.

If you've got a show you'd like me to listen to that isn't a musical, erotica, or a romance (romance in the show is fine, the genre just isn't for me), now would be a great time to suggest it. I'd appreciate it very much.

anyone have any recs similar to Steven Universe??

I've started watching Steven Universe with my oldest kiddo, and they love it. It's right up their alley with the magic, characters, music, animation, story, and even fight scenes.

I picked it bc I noticed that a lot of their media was very hetero normative and wanted to add more lgbtqia friendly stuff that is age appropriate, but I realized I don't know of many shows in general, let alone diverse shows. (I was super sheltered as a kid so I basically know veggie tales and disney movies 😭)

Okay Mighty Nein fans I have a mighty need for post-campaign fics in which Essek and Caleb explore Aeor. Preferably long and filled with mishaps and adventure (and of course a dash of romance). Help a girl out with some recs!

MY FRIENDS WITH FITNESS/SMART WATCHES. I NEED RECS.

So I have a fitbit inspire I picked up a few years ago, and fitbit has generally been my go to (started using them to track my sleep years ago). I generally use mine for health stuff: keeping a general eye on my heart rate/heart issues, estimating how much activity I can get up to every day (daily cardio load, very important and helpful for me), monitoring my stress, and I use it to sleep track.

However, Google is making a bunch of changes to the fitbit app and they'll be removing some of the features I specifically bought my fitbit to help with. And are also using it to push an AI 'wellness coach'.

Anyone know of a good alternative in case my fitbit becomes useless to me? Looking for something that includes:

Decent sleep tracking

Can monitor my heartrate with at least moderate accuracy

Some sort of daily cardio load/how much activity you can handle that day

Not required but ability to track stress levels is nice

Compatible with my Galaxy phone (so no apple watches unfortunately)

I do not need it to be waterproof or have compasses or anything. My exercise is mostly long walks + pilates and/or yoga. So far Garmin and Galaxy watches keep popping up, but I'm looking for thoughts anyway!

#rec request #smart watches #fitness trackers #one of the big things is they're switching daily cardio load to weekly as best i can tell #which defeats the purpose for me #with all of my chronic health issues i like being able #to get up and check my fitbit and get an estimation on how much i can do THAT DAY #or if i need to rest more #it's not always accurate but it's accurate enough to help me manage my exercise/daily tasks with all my health problems #so taking it away is dumbbbb #i'm seeing garmin has some sort of body battery level thing which appears to work similarly?#unsure of the galaxy watch or other trackers #just looking for thoughts or recs!

Does anyone have any good recommendations for completed historical fantasy manhwas?

So I'm currently learning Spanish to better communicate with Beloved's family (his dad's side are Mexican, and they mostly speak very good English but it's nice to put in the effort to learn to speak to them in their native language imo). It's going pretty well, I think? Not fluent yet by any means, but for having started learning this time last year I think I've made great progress and I can mostly get by if the person i'm speaking with is patient and helps me out a bit.

I'm curious if any Spanish speakers on here (especially Mexican & LatAm people!) have any recommendations for spanish-language media that a beginner-to-intermediate speaker could mostly keep up with? Like not specifically learning resources, but music, shows, films, books, podcasts, etc. where people are just speaking naturally in spanish? I'm trying to get used to hearing and understanding fluidly-spoken Spanish without needing to mentally translate everything back and forth. I really don't mind what genres/etc., I enjoy a lot of different types of media in English and I can't see why it would be different en español.
