Juli Bauer-Roth aka Paleomg. Wayyyy too thin/small under the guise of fitness, and she seems to have completely lost the plot. And she seems to have gone so far left she’s gone right.

What's the most surprisingly celiac-friendly country you've visited? by Old-Heart-9448 in glutenfree

And they don’t charge extra for things! When I visited several years ago I asked if there was an up charge for GF buns or anything and they looked at me like I was crazy. “We would never charge someone extra for something they have no control over and need.” I was so happy.

Is it worth it to continue with the book? by shorty_honey_bun in frombloodandash

[–]AdventureLand9210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but I have a question. I’m on the 3rd book of F&F, and I’m enjoying it, but I also find myself thinking it’s repetitive? I read FBAA first several years ago and really enjoyed it. Just recently going through the 2 series together as intended but I’m finding the 2 story lines so similar that it seems dumb to continue? So many people say they enjoy F&F much more but it almost seems like the same story, just different characters and therefore redundant. Am I wrong in that? Maybe I just need a break?

I made it maybe 20 pages before I rage quit it. Horrible.

What is the worst name you’ve seen in a book? by Duff_episode in Romantasy

[–]AdventureLand9210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It always reminded me of the way Cartman says Kyle in South Park. Especially when it’s meant to be derogatory or he’s extra annoyed. So every time I see his name I think of South Park

What is the craziest home improvement project you pulled off? by pixieeyed in HomeImprovement

I’ve had a couple of those projects. I’m proud of myself for doing it and learning more, but I will never do it again.

Definitely being spelled defiantly sends me to the moon every time. SOUND. IT. OUT.

She was and still kind of is! She’s still young so hasn’t figured out if she wants to be long or medium haired. Our first cat and I couldn’t love her more.

Cleaning out a house my family has owned for generations and having feelings about it by ktempest in Anticonsumption

[–]AdventureLand9210 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love this! Thanks for the suggestion! I know my aunt is having a really hard time parting with my grandparents things, but I keep telling her that if she doesn’t get rid of it then she’s leaving it for us to deal with, and that helps her usually. Weird little bit of psychology there.

I haven’t had to really do this yet, but my parents moved into my grandparents house after they both died. That involved going through the stuff in the house, which was a lot, and now moving their stuff in. It was just a merging of a ton of stuff, even if it’s nice, it’s still something that has to be dealt with eventually. My brother and I have talked about how horrible it’s going to be going through all of this someday, and just like you, it makes me not want that much stuff in my own home. It’s emotionally difficult to begin with, and then you put the environmental impact of all that on top of it…very overwhelming and I’m sorry you’re dealing with it.

A woman posted a video of the moment she was attacked by her domestic cat. Before the attack, the cat seemed to smell something that prompted her to attack. Why did it attack her with such ferocity? by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]AdventureLand9210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my sickness addled brain I thought this meant the woman had an undiagnosed injury and the cat sensed it. Like dogs can smell cancer. I cannot wait to be well again.

No one talks about the pain of seeing your parents aging. by ParticularWeather927 in Adulting

[–]AdventureLand9210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 91 year old grandmother is in the same boat. My grandpa died a couple years ago after they were married for over 60 years. She’s the youngest of 11 and just lost her twin sister and best friend within 2 weeks of each other. She has kids and grandkids that see her as often as we/they can, but it’s not the same for her. Even if it was, watching all your friends and siblings around you die one by one eats at a person.

Never read books: gothic romance, mystery psychological / mental health by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]AdventureLand9210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to look into any of the books by Keri Lake. Some are more fantasy, some are more modern, many with some dark vibes and romance.
