Great list! Thanks for compiling this. AliasVault looks promising.
What are the suggested alternatives to Proton Drive?
It's one thing for the aliens to play on negative Earth stereotypes (the commentary I was expecting and looking for), and it's another thing when the POV characters do. It's Carl's first person POV depicting the people and events using that language, not the aliens'. And it's Princess Donut telling him to kill because she's "disgusting." He wants to help/team up with her, but the sarcasm of "Yeah, that'll be a no" is basically the entire argument it takes for him to do a murder instead.
Because if the author originally intended this to be about how horrible the aliens are, then the MC shouldn't be the one thinking these horrible things. Full stop. But the author is the one who chose to do a first person narrative. He failed to describe people in a way that doesn't put the words and feelings in his MC's head.
Agreed. I'm concerned for people that love that series.
I present to you a pirate adventure! The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi. The characters and world are so well developed and there’s lots of action.
Also the second book came out very recently so if you love it you can move on to the next right away. I’m currently reading the second in the series and it’s just as good. 🌊🏴☠️
I was wondering why only penises…where are all the vaginas and then I read the article.
The festival as legend has it honours a local blacksmith in the Edo Period (1603-1868) who forged an iron dildo to break the teeth of a sharp-toothed demon inhabiting a woman's vagina that had been castrating young men on their wedding nights.
Is this entire article AI slop?
I use Todoist for tasks/reminders. Works great on Linux for me.
I just finished this a few days ago. The ending is well worth the bit of sluggish-ness that happens midway through. Enjoy!
I absolutely love getting flowers as a gift. However, I also just really love flowers in general so I’m probably biased.
I buy myself flowers a lot because I love walking into the dining room and the table has a beautiful vase of flowers. It makes me happy.
This is not a meme. It’s just a statement. 🤷♀️
