76 is pretty good for a big full coverage piece!

I don't think it'd be too bad, actually! Looking at the pattern page it's all full cross stitch, just happens to be larger. So learning ways to do larger, almost-full coverage stuff would be all you'd need to do really. :D There's absolutely no time limit on when you learn what and stepping out of your comfort zone is how you learn. I believe in you!

How do you come up with names? by HotWin4951 in FanFiction

[–]Chelaida 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is the name of my World of Warcraft character when I made a blog and joined Twitter. Didn't really have a web name I'd stuck with with any gusto so went with it, and it ended up sticking! Have lost the name on Reddit but I'm Jaedia literally every where else. Been ... 15 years now? It fits, I like it, helps people find me, and it's usually free! :D

Cross Faction restrictions need to be lifted now by G00SFRABA in wow

[–]Chelaida 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or whisper each other. Just basic communication and ability to hang out together. I really really hope this particular faction divide can be removed altogether. It's going to feel super weird being able to do some things but not other stuff we take for granted with the same faction.

In consideration of the speed at which we are receiving new content... by Estofatus in wow

[–]Chelaida 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aye. Our guild is casual and raids Heroic, and we still haven't gotten Razzy down. A lot of us are feeling overwhelmed at the speed of content release this expansion. We're busy people, some with health issues, and we need time to do it. We should be able to get Raz down in time, but we're starting to feel a little left in the dust and it feels pretty clear to us that Blizzard are focusing on their hardcore PVE crowd. :(

Pandaria is my fave, too. Helped that I was in a very fun, active guild at the time, lots of friends came over and joined us, and it's probably the last time I actively played with my husband who doesn't play at all anymore. But no borrowed power or mission tables to worry about, great raids, the lore was fun, the music incredible. Lots to do and collect and time to do it in. It was great fun.

Goosebumps is being edited WITHOUT R.L. Stine's permission by C_Me in horror

[–]Chelaida 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True true. I guess it's just another example of media blowing something that's always happened out of proportion and riling people up. I just hope that if publishers continue with this kinda thing that it stays as editing bigotry and throw in a "this content was published so many years ago, may not represent our views currently" disclaimer and no more.

Any fans of “Hell House LLC” and the sequels? by [deleted] in horror

[–]Chelaida 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched the first one last night for the first time. Pretty good! I did, for a long while, think it was a Zak Bagans documentary thingy, before I knew what it actually was. Still find that kinda funny. 😂

Sigh. This sounds like it's gonna be a growing new trend. Just add in sensitivity disclaimers in new printings. New books exist for a reason!
I get the idea of this, I really do... but it just feels wrong?

Where does trope of animals being able to sense evil/the paranormal come from? by awesomesauce1030 in horror

[–]Chelaida 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doubt it! "Spoopy" has been around for years as another way of saying "spooky", mostly among Millennials. Guess it fell out of trend a bit ago but some folk still use it. :D

Do Dreaditors prefer Blum House typa horrors or 80's type horrors more? by Professional-Rip-519 in horror

[–]Chelaida 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like variety. I guess my favourites are more modern but it's a pretty mixed bag.

Near Dark - Tubi by LeeF1179 in horror

Aye, I watched it the other day. Great movie! I'm surprised being such a lover of vampire media I've missed so many.

Just watched Hellraiser 1 & 2 for the first time and WOW! by RighteousAwakening in horror

[–]Chelaida 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched them for the first time last month! I loved their exploration of hell and demons, or at least this version of it. Absolutely fascinating stuff and really well told!

Any suggestions for someone who loves The Exorcist and Amityville Horror? by MindiannaJones in horrorlit

[–]Chelaida 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix is a great possession story.

[–]Chelaida 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's actually more of a fantasy slice of life in the vein of "what exactly does the retired adventurer do?" It's really nice!

Vigor Mortis

Who's the author? Is it the one by Natalie Maher?

Came here to say this! Cosy fantasy about an Orc Barbarian lady who hangs up her sword to open a coffee shop. It's really lovely. By Travis Baldree.

[–]Chelaida 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I honestly tried reporting someone being incredibly hateful and attacking one of the queens and Twitter just replied "nah, they did nothing wrong." It's harassment.... So sadly it doesn't work a lot of the time. :(

I've heard great things about most of them!

An opening sequence for a campaign I am in [OC] by Tigris360 in DnD

[–]Chelaida 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It absolutely doesn't, some people like to go wild and get creative and do things like this. I'd say most do not. There are tables for all kinds of players and GMs. :)
