Sleeping with some light (the blinds not shut completely) was a cause for me, along with stress. No light, not able to see anything waking up, no eldritch horrors in the room and I probably fall asleep again.

where I live there are shops for laptop, console and phone repairs. I'd keep it simple and go to one of those

I'm not sure if it's your style, but search for Extremoduro or Estopa. I'll link something later if I remember

slang but not new slang as it's widely used and it's even in the RAE dictionary (31 point).

Seemingly used in central america, Argentina, Bolivia, México, Uruguay, Venezuela and Dominican Republic.

"coger" means fuck in latin america, but not in Spain where we use it as "grab/pick" normally. It causes fun reactions to latinamericans visiting or living in Spain for sure as it's used a lot.

"correr" is also "run" in Spanish, we share a lot of words with Portuguese . 🇵🇹

Not all birds are dumb, you have parrots there, so a bit of a bad comparison

When I was younger, I also though I'd be cool to work in America, but once you learn a bit about their conditions, it's a big nope. Much better lifestyle in small cities with an average salary in EU and the 23 days vacation + 13 - 14 bank holidays. Mental health checks out. 😄

About the Prod on calls, even if you "volunteer", depending on the country and kind of job, they have to paid those "on call" hours even if there's no calls at the end, and if there's work required, the pay is higher.

I'm like you, I wouldn't exchange my free time no matter what. 🤘
