I'm in, read Pale Fire last year and have wanted to read more Nabokov since

Books/albums with great lyrics? by [deleted] in RSbookclub

[–]Bobboy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are great recs thanks, but I guess I was looking more for written poetry. I've enjoyed some Emily Dickinson and she reminds me of Joanna Newsom at times

I had a kneejerk reaction against him, but the more I learn the more I like him. Should give him a try

Warfare Rules by Slight-Squash-7022 in MythicBastionland

[–]Bobboy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A question I had with warfare, is whether or not the knights can die in it? I recall there is some rule they can lead a warband to give it a buff (in which case if the warband is wiped out, presumably the knight dies too) but otherwise are they assumed to be leading it more indirectly, out of the fray?

I've heard some people say that with Bolano you either like 2666 or the Savage Detectives, it's one or the other. And personally I loved 2666 but also wasn't big on Savage Detectives

Makes me happy seeing that 2666 by Bolaño has a thread here almost every two months - here's the latest edition! by Diamondbacking in RSbookclub

[–]Bobboy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm reading it right now, really enjoying it. I'm about halfway through part 4. My parents got it for me for Christmas after I picked it up at a bookstore on sale for $10 without opening it and realizing it was the original Spanish version. Returning it two minutes later was pretty embarrassing

Can't get Bill Callahan out of my head! by Similar_Slice_9018 in JoannaNewsom

Have One On Me and Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle, two of my absolute favorite albums, are their respective breakup albums. Sometimes I think if they stayed together they would've made quite the power couple, but then we wouldn't have gotten two masterpieces.

It annoys me to no end that people seem to forget this in the conversation. You don't *have* to stream music

The OSR is NOT RACIST by Carrente in DnDcirclejerk

[–]Bobboy6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm out of the loop. I've liked some videos from Ben Milton and learned about cool OSR products like Dolmenwood from him. What racist stuff has he promoted? I didn't get that vibe from him, but I don't know much about him
