Planning to quarantine w my SO in a cabin for a bit, but it doesn’t have internet and they want to charge us an obscene amount to install it.

Does anyone have any portable internet solutions that can handle zoom calls, etc?

Phone hotspot? I also think you can add dedicated hotspot devices to your phone plans for like $30/mo (very unsure on the price, call your provider!)

Do you have a work phone that comes with a hotspot? If not, maybe look into the costs of adding to your personal plan?

Mifi from the office?

Clear and Verizon use to sell hotspots. You would each need one.

Can you rent a pocketwifi?

So recently my SO has been accusing me of being in control of when we are intimate (sex and cuddling). She says that every time she wants to I say no - and whenever I want to - she says yes.

How do you say no to something like that - without your partner thinking you're just looking out for yourself or you're controlling?
