I really like lots of genres! As long as it's not too dry (aka Karl Marx lol) I'm up for it. How do guys listen to books - through audible app? It is good? Any other options?

@KPMG1 - how does it work with the library?

Audible. Zero to one by Peter thiel. The lean startup by Eric ries. And The hard thing about hard things by Ben Horowitz.

48 laws of power Robert Greene

Hyperion - Dan Simmons

Well what genre do you like reading?

50 Shades of Grey by a terrible writer

@OP I got a library card and I check out audiobooks on CD. Alternatively, they also have downloadable versions that expire a week after your virtual "check out". They don't incur late fees though.

Audible is great you get a credit every month and you can buy any book you want with that credit. They usually have sales to purchase multiple books with one or two credits

Rough day in the office and in the mood for something that would toss me around and maybe hurt a little. Black peppercorn crusted bacon left on a smoker too long and covered in jam made from under-ripe red fruits. The 59% ABV is definitely present, and you can smell the peat smoke from across the room. The finish lasts for days. If you’re already into peated scotch but want to crank it up another level, the cask strength Laphroaigs can show you your limits. Hurts soooo good 😌

Hi everyone,
So I had my NIPT and NT scans last week and I’ve been getting pieces of the results back from my doctor in the patient portal. All seems okay but I’m a bit confused. Does anyone know if FirstScreen is the same thing as NIPT? I was under the impression that NIPT was in 90th percent of certainty for Down syndrome but the result we got, labeled FirstScreen indicate 83% certainty so I’m confused if there are more results coming? I messaged the doctor but haven’t heard back yet.
