this chapter literally killed all interest in this series in c/yurimemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone
[–] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 child)

This is a great list, I haven't read some of these so will file away to check them out later. Other completed series I would recommend in addition:

  • She Loves to Cook, She Loves to Eat
  • 7 Days Limited Girlfriend
  • Even If It Was Just Once, I Regret It
  • Her Tale Of Shim Chong
  • Soulmate
  • After Losing My Job I Met Miss Mermaid At The Beach
  • After The Curtain Call
  • The Wind Spell
  • Forgot - Baili Jin Among Mortals

Have you read "This Monster Wants To Eat Me?", it's ongoing but very good so far, especially if you like Aizawa-san. Idolatry is also extremely promising but the author is a piece of shit apparently :(

There are also a bunch of...ahem...suggestive ones (mostly Manhwa) that I haven't listed.

Edit: also completely agree with the original post, anemone is boring and I dropped it as well. Not the first time that happens though.

    Sensory Issues Around Collarbone in c/adhd@lemmy.world
    [–] 2 points 1 month ago (1 child)

    For me it's from the collarbone up to the chin, especially the front. I can't stand having t-shirts with collars that sit anywhere in this zone. I remember as a kid the collars on my t-shirts would be soaking wet because I would hold them in my mouth to keep from touching my neck. My solution is to wear low cut or V-neck tops. I sleep on my side on two pillows, this means most of my neck isn't touching the pillow very directly, just the upper part and on the side. Also don't like the 'double chin' touching my neck when I look down so I have been 'mewing' for decades to avoid it. I only learned it's called mewing recently, and no it doesn't tone your jaw (not what I was doing it for anyway)

    My Brother's Bird [OC] in c/birding@lemmy.world

    The bird in the photo looks more like a red tailed hawk to me, peregrine falcons have a sort of dark 'mask' on their face and very dark eyes. Whatever it really is, it's a beautiful bird :)

    Look into foot peels. They usually contain salicylic acid. I didn't believe that alone would do anything but I'm now a convert. The aftermath is gross for a few days, but for a brief moment in time you'll have baby smooth feet. A few tips:

    • Obviously patch test to check you don't get a negative reaction
    • Soak your feet in warm water for about 10 mins before
    • Keep the foot peel socks on longer than it says on the packaging (if it says 60 mins, keep them on 90 min)
    • Put socks over the foot peel socks so the liquid reaches all the nooks and crannies.
    • Get comfortable and watch a movie or something while you wait
    • In the days following, soak your feet once a day for 5-10 mins. This speeds up the peeling time.
    • Wear socks and when you take them off, turn them inside out above a trash can.
    • Resist the urge to peel the skin off. This is the hardest step
    • Final step is to enjoy your smooth feet and look into repeating in a few months, especially if you have some very stubborn areas.

    Hades - I haven't seen anyone list this one yet. It was the first roguelike/roguelite I ever played and it taught me that I don't like roguelikes/roguelites. It tried to like it, but it's just not for me. Luckily, son boy loves it so it's not a total waste.

    In France we have a few more:

    Il pleut des cordes (It's raining ropes) Il pleut à sceau (It's raining buckets) Il tombe des hallebardes (it's raining halberds)

    I'm also quite partial to "on s'est fait saucer", literally "we got sauced", which refers to getting soaked in the rain.

    Cheap binoculars for friends and family (lemmy.world)
     

    I have a number of people around me who are curious about birding and would like to give it a try. I want to encourage more people to get into the hobby by taking them on outings. However, the vast majority don't have their own binoculars and aren't going to purchase any before trying it out. I have my own single set of binos but no spares to lend. Renting isn't an option where I live so I'm looking to buy at least a couple of sets for this purpose.

    I'm sadly not made of money so they'd have to be well under 75eur each. I'm not looking for amazing performance, but at least a brand that's trustworthy enough and has a good enough reach for absolute beginners to use in like city parks.

    I've bought a couple of dirt cheap 10x42s (I'm talking under 20eur) online but find they're a bit too dark and the chromatic aberration makes them unusable. Ideally I'd find something that's a step up from that. I think 8x42s are a good sweet spot.

    The second hand market is very limited here, I'm seeing second hand options like used Nikon P3s somehow being sold at higher than market price, or binoculars that are extremely heavy and look almost 100 years old but still expensive.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Owls of Extremadura (lemmy.world)
     

    I was on a trip recently in Extremadura in Spain and it was an amazing place for owls, especially little owls. They're pretty abundant and chill so I was able to get some nice shots which I wanted to share here with fellow superbowlers:

    We also saw a couple of Eurasian Eagle Owls, which were on my list to see this year:

    Sadly did not catch the Scops owl but we did hear one at night!

    If you're a birder in Europe, you absolutely need to go to Extremadura if you have the chance (and not just for owls). I swear the skies felt incredibly empty when I got back home.

    Short-eared owls to close off the year (lemmy.world)
     

    After a couple of failed attempts to find them in another area, I spent three days in a spot where multiple short eared owls had been spotted. There was a group of at least 4 in one field who'd come out each evening around sunset to hunt. During the day they'd be sitting camouflaged in the high grass.

    What I found interesting is that even though they were hanging around near each other at rest, when it came time to hunt, they would frequently rush at each other and squabble. Clearly they weren't among friends.

    Another funny behaviour was how they would react to crows that also hung around the field, and vice versa. It's common for crows to harass birds of prey in a group, loudly crying out (it's one way to find out where there are owls even). But these crows acted a bit differently. Individual crows would from time to time come and annoy an owl just sitting around minding its business, but not as frantically as I'm used to seeing them. But what was even more incredible, the owls would do the same to the crows. It happened several times, but I've not seen something like that before.

    I had a blast watching these guys and gals, it was a great way to cap off 2025. With that, I wish all superbowlers a great end of 2025 and/or start of 2026!

    Long-eared owls at the roost (lemmy.world)
     

    I got a tip for a LEO winter roost and sped over when I got the chance. There were no less than 10 owls in the tree! Apparently this specific spot has seen up to 50-60 owls in some years. What's incredible is that this willow tree is right next to a primary school in the outskirts of a small city. There are people coming and going all the time. People know the owls are there and come have a look but they stay unbothered (they do peek at you lazily though). I really wonder why they picked this specific spot, it's really unexpected given how busy and loud it gets.

    Here is a shot of another two amigos in the group:

    And one more where I felt like going a bit more artsy:

    Little Owl at dusk (lemmy.world)
     

    I took this photo last month about an hour outside of Paris in France. I went to this spot looking for barn owls and stumbled on this guy, which was a hell of a treat! I did see the barn owls in the end but it was too dark to take a decent shot without a tripod. They were super close too, one flew over my head making a ghostly rolling screech. It was magical.

    I also heard a tawny owl nearby! Not sure what it is about that particular village but owls seem to be major fans. I'll definitely be heading back!

    Weightlifting shoes? (lemmy.world)
     

    I need some advice on shoes as I'm reading a lot of material but I'm still not sure weightlifting shoes make sense for me.

    I'm looking for shoes to use exclusively for lifting (no cardio nor crossfit). I'm following the Stronglifts 5x5 programme for now (squats, bench press, rows, deadlifts and ohp, with some pull-ups and hanging knee lifts added). I'm not lifting heavy yet, but I feel my regular shoes aren't cutting it, especially for stability.

    I see weightlifting shoes like the romaleos and powerlifts recommended for squatting, but I currently have no issues going deep on squats, with or without shoes. I'd like more lateral stability, but not sure forking out a couple of hundred euros on shoes is worth it if I'm not struggling with squat depth. I see flatter shoes or barefoot/socks are recommended for deadlifts, but I don't want to get two separate shoes to lift. Should I still look into weightlifting shoes or go for something else?
