I´ve heard good things about Killing Eve, but I´ve never watched it.

We also call them Milchzähne, milk teeth.
I think you can say milk tooth in English as well.
Killing Eve is great. I think we are in season 3 or so, and Eve is still alive, LOL. The killer is great, they chose a fitting actress.

I am having a fun problem with my Paramount+ subscription. When you choose the language as English and the subtitles in English too, it shows the subtitles BOTH in English and in Spanish. For example, the character says "why?" and the subtitle writes "why? Por qué?". it is super annoying. For a while it appears to be solved, and then it begins again.
I had to watch the last Strange New Worlds episodes with Spanish subtitles, and I guess I am going to do the same with the current season of Lower Decks.

So you usually watch with English subtitles? And now there is double text. That's annoying, indeed.
Today was the first day of school here. Micro is already home, Mini will come in 20 minutes, except if she talks with her classmates longer.
I am just a little bit annoyed, because I have trouble writing in English with my new phone.
I still have to find out how to change autocorrection to english. Because I have to tip back at every single word to correct it back to what I have written.
Would I just let it be like autocorrection corrected, it would look like this:
World Internet justieren let IT be live autocorrection corrected, IT World Look live this.
LOL
So, sorry if there are any weird words in my text.
But at least the program is learning, not like the one I had before.
And the rest is also a great improvement. I can continue with Codex Alera, because my Audible app is working again. There seemed to have been an update a few months back which was not compatible with my old android version. I could open the app, see my books, but not listen to them.
Today I finally got to defreeze my deep freezer. During the last weeks we ate a lot of the food that was stored there.
Micro once left the door open, and so there was a thick coating of ice, which had to be removed. And of course the freezer was quite full.

If I can, I watch with English subtitles. If the option is not available, I watch with Spanish subtitles. Spanish dubbing is my least chosen option. In this case, I guess I will watch with the Spanish subtitles.
I hope your girls had a good first day. Yesterday I was watching an article about funny tweets (well, X now) and there was one where a parent asked their 3rd-grader son how his first day has been, and the boy told a long story about a bug that he found in the yard...and nothing else :D
You made me laugh about your phone. Autocorrection is always a problem, even when you have the right setting :) But it is good that it learns, that is always useful, especially if you use the...swipe? The thing when you do not write every letter but move your finger in the pattern of the word you want to write. My phone never understands that I want to write "Cómo" and tries to write "Chino" ("how" vs "Chinese"). Note that "Chino" is a common word for Buenos Aires inhabitants to call the small self-service stores on each block (that is because most of them are from Chinese people, sometimes Korean ones too).
Freezer surprises! Something you forgot that were there? There is a comic-strip by an Argentinian author (Sendra) about a child called Matias, it is published everyday in the journal. Well, i remember once when he asked his mom what would be the dinner and she answered "brown thing with carrots and peas". When he, confused, asked what she meant by "brown thing" she answered she had found a bag of a brown thing in the bottom of the freezer and she placed it in the pot just like that :)

Anyone alive here?
Today is the official start of Spring here. It is cloudy but at least it does not rain yet, which is good because traditionally students make picnics (even when the tradition has weakened with the pandemia). I will write more about this another day. Meanwhile, have a nice Spring or Autumn, whatever you are :)
