Yeah I finished the first book and put it down and said fuck this shit.
I enjoyed the suspense of wanting to see what would happen but then I realized that the author is a sadist who only wants the readers to suffer and that was enough to end the entire series for me. I got roped into watching the first episode of the first season and I was like oh it’s the entire first book in one hour fuck this shit and I’ve not watched anymore of it.
I wonder how long it’ll be before people start getting hit with dmcas for taking pictures of it and showing it off to people
you weren’t supposed to tell
I mean, yes, rtfm always, but at the same time flashlights are solved problem and they should not require a manual for anyone that’s over the age of six.
I got mine at costco. It comes with a huge lithium-ion battery, can double as a power source for usb, charges with USB C and is bright enough to flashblind a bull elk in mating season.
Turns on full power on the first click but then you have to click it three more times to turn it off.
Indeed. When saltheart foamfollower undergoes the lava caamora? Like I don’t cry but that brought a tear to my eye.
There is a final four books out which are of a different caliber than the first six but not a terrible read.
I’d say the first book of The Chronicles of Thomas covenant the unbeliever was a wild trip.
In the story, Thomas covenant has leprosy. Due to the leprosy he is numb from the neck down even though he can still walk. He has no sensation when he touches anything and he cannot engage in his chosen profession which is writing. In a fit of pique he rescues a girl that almost gets hit by a car and gets isekaied.
This was written in the late '70s so it was not a common trope at the time.
He arrives in a world of magic on top of a mountain covered in Giant steps, he crawls his way down the mountain and encounters a girl who uses the magic of the land to heal him of his leprosy.
Believing this is all a dream and trying to prove to himself that this is not real, he rapes the girl.
The girls seems very distraught but pulls herself together and guides him into town and that is when he discovers that the white gold wedding ring on his finger is the source of wild magic.
There is a great evil on the land that plans to destroy everything and he is the chosen person, the only person who can stop it.
He has to fight against his disbelief of the world while reconciling his abhorrent actions with his own internal sense of morality in order to have a chance to go home again.
This book spawned a 10 book series covering hundreds of years of history in the land with Thomas Covenant’s battle with the forces of evil and the lives of the people of the land resting in his leprosy numbed hands.
It’s an amazing work but it is a rough read.
Nearly $400 might be a touch out of the price range, but thank you! At least I know that it exists so it’s worth keeping on searching.

Does anyone know where I could find some 20-in wide charcoal filter cloth sponge material?
I would like to be able to have my filter reduce odor in the home as well but I can’t seem to find anything other than little 4-in strips.
I have one. It’s not that loud. Even when you are standing right next to it it is easy to have a normal volume conversation.
You could also add in an inexpensive wi-fi smart plug and set up a schedule where it would turn on and run for 15 minutes every 2 hours or so.
I got a 20-in box fan and four 20x20x2 air filters.
Tape the air filters together into a square and then tape the box fan on to one of the open sides.
Said it so the box fan is facing upward, plug in and turn on. You have a whole house air filter for like $50 or less that will do as good of a job if not better than pretty much any other device on the market.
When the air filters start to turn a dingy color, replace them for 20ish dollars. Fan should be good for several years.
It’s almost like the legislators are more concerned with swinging their dicks around than with actual safety and best practices.
It’s been a long time since I lived in that area and I don’t even know if the franchise still exist but they tend to be typically in the very Southeast, like Georgia and parts of Alabama stuff like that.
For being a place that calls itself the waffle king, their waffle mix was watery and pretty shitty and I do not recommend it’s not worth the effort.
Thanks for having my back. I know that my suggested career path is not a very profitable one for Campbell’s but I will say that it will take care of them for the rest of their life.
Yeah there’s a bunch of companies that duplicate The Waffle House model like huddle House and Waffle King and places like that. I’ve worked at a bunch of them but this one was a Waffle King.
Hard disagree. Like I can understand not liking the incredibly strong vinegar and mustard condiment combination but mustard itself is a seasoning that is used in lots of different dishes and can be very delicious without any of the zest of yellow mustard sauce.
I would actually buy this. I’m super sensitive to the taste of the celery shit that they put in soup. They put it in soups where it doesn’t belong.
Fucking clam chowder has no need for celery seasoning. Potato soup has no need for celery seasoning.
Campbell’s needs to get out of the soup business completely and instead suck start shotguns for a living.
I had the same experience with the two towers. I can’t watch the movie of the two towers. And I can’t make it more than 60 or 70 pages into the book before my brain gives up and says they’ve been walking through the fucking Hills and talking to the trees for 30 pages this is some bullshit.
Maybe I’m cutting myself short by not pushing through but I just literally cannot build up the energy it takes to push through this wall of infinite text.
