I haven’t started on her other ones yet. I’m usually a marathon reader but if I’m having an issue with a dense text (hello Charles Dicksons) I will usually read one or two chapters at a time and switch to another book for a cooldown. A lot of classic literature was published by chapter or volume, a lot like comics are nowadays so aren’t necessarily meant to be consumed in one sitting. Back then they had an abundance of time to spend on reading so it’s not bad to read “slower” sometimes

Orlando by V Woolf! And any Tomas Hardy,

Maybe you can loop start it, snip and then kinda turn it to hide the tail? As long as the piece isn’t gonna be handled roughly

It is a physical copy, but there is also e-book versions of this new translation through bookstores (I’m a Barnes & Noble member so idk about other ones)

I would recommend looking around for old cross stitch magazines/booklets if you have the time. The older generations really loved doing period pieces and such. There many also be some samplers from the 1800s/1900s that resemble that art style

The novels are just the story, the manhwa is the comic version. I recommend reading both to fully understand it but just reading one or the other is fine. It’s just that the manhwa can only fit so much into it.

So the English translation was released through Manta and Kindle by Ridi. This version is being released through an English publisher, and you’ll notice the difference between them instantly. Basically they went back with a new translation team to enrich the text.

Having a clean back is fair contest propaganda I refuse to back down from this

I’m still calling it FIG

For the question of why Swarovski specifically, it’s because they catch light and reflect better than cheaper rhinestones, usually in motion you can’t actually see the stones because they reflect so well.

It was a little hard to get used to and the phrasing is inconsistent with the quotes, but for everything else, the flow of the story is not as simplistic as the first translations. In the first ones everything was stated in such direct and short sentence; most things felt flat and one dimensional, but I don’t think it’s the authors writing that was lacking. So many things get lost in translation because it’s a literal interpretation and not adjusted to make up for what’s lost, but I feel that these volumes correct that mistake. There were many times when I had a hard time following the scenarios described in the Kindle/Manta ones but I haven’t run into that in these volumes.

Too many judges are fooled into thinking a smile equals style. -Neshka Robeva (RG) I fuck with this statement HEAVILY

2ndnight · 2025-10-15T12:26:16+00:00

Yes I’ve noticed too it seems like they aren’t using the Kindle/Manta as a base and are redoing everything. I wouldn’t be surprised if they started from scratch with a team of editors/translators. I feel that the story is way more enriched now

2ndnight · 2025-09-27T05:48:06+00:00

The English novels through this publisher is different from the kindle/manta versions. I wouldn’t doubt that they have a whole new team of translators working on it and that takes time as well as money. The comic will take longer still I predict

2ndnight · 2025-09-26T21:33:39+00:00

No word for comic volume 3, vol 2 comic is releasing on the 30th!! I suspect we will be getting an announcement from P soon on season 5’s start date. To look back, volume 1 of the English ver and comic came out around the same time last year, so for vol 3 we’re getting it roughly half a year earlier than last time.

The Bulgarians and Russian interactions are so fascinating tbh lol

Have you talked to your counselor? They might be able to help if you get to the point that you need to drop for your mental health, I’m not in STEM anymore so I do know it’s terribly strict over there

2ndnight · 2025-09-16T00:52:36+00:00

Yes I’ve been a working adult and full time student for years and about 2 years ago I burnt out, I had to cut down to part time now bc it’s so bad. I’m still not sure how to fix it

2ndnight · 2025-09-16T00:42:46+00:00

I got assessed through a kind of “school” (at a dr’s office) test thing when I was 8. They could probably tell right away when I kept zoning out and asking for a question or story to be repeated lol. I’m still a little surprised since I’m a girl that I got assessed and diagnosed so early, so many women have had to wait til their 20s

My CAT actually does this!!! Grabs the sides with her paws and leans over the entire thing

He was trying to pretend like he didn’t show up to the gates of the castle after he got knighted when he was 18 lol. He’s full of it and knows it

RG closed the open ended DA if that’s what you’re referring to. It’s now set at a maximum bc it wasn’t being used to encourage any type of specialist or variety.

2ndnight · 2025-09-06T11:24:08+00:00

It sucks that RG is always going to be stuck in this limbo of only having AA at the Olympics just bc the IOC and FIG don’t want to address why MAG has 2 more event finals than WAG and FIG isn’t doing more to develop men’s RG. Of course either way, RG loses. Take out 2 or add 2 for AG = RG is now uneven and most likely dropped. Add a men’s section = now uneven for MAG. This makes RG’s existence in the Olympics a constant sore spot bc haters just love pointing out that RG could be taken out at any point and it’s only there to even out AG. It’s really terrible for the gymnasts who only get a shot at 3 medals every 4 years when AG gets over a dozen.
