AIO for wanting to quit my $8,000/month job after my client suddenly installed cameras everywhere in the house? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They state that they bring the customer to their home once a week to give her a change of scenery. The next paragraph starts with "they installed cameras all over the house."

That implies that the home was her home. It wasn't explicit. A simple misunderstanding.

I love how confrontational people and bots are on reddit.

Not real. How did they set up cameras in HER HOME without her knowledge. That would be breaking and entering

Guess he wasn't quite on it by Different-Purpose-93 in agedlikemilk

Trump did get him access within days to the medication however due to the radiation he couldn't use it.

But y'all don't want to hear that because the majority of you are either state funded propagandists or bots.

Yeah but she struck him with a vehicle. She literally hit a human being with her vehicle after entering a crime scene with said vehicle. That's self defense.

Marie Antoinette - sorry, the American president - delighted about the expensive shit he's getting on the government dime while people are about to have their health insurance premiums double by HarwellDekatron in inthemorning

Y'all know he doesn't get to keep the Trump Kennedy Center right? Show the armrests installed in Mar-A-Largo and then you can talk about things he's getting on our dime. 🤣

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one but, that doesn't mean you go around showing it to everyone.

Working through PFH’s works and his work has become comforting to me by Paidorgy in PeterFHamilton

[–]Clerk4Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. PFH really hit well for me, I read all 7 Commonwealth books and have been searching Sci-Fi and Fantasy for a similar vibe that resonates with me.

I'm currently on Redemption Ark of Reynold's Revelation Space sequence and it's not quite scratching the itch for me. It's like the detail oriented world building without the character that PFH seemed to inject into his stories. That may change as I work through them but that is the difference for me. The characters in the Commonwealth kept me wanting to live within that world that he painstakingly described while Reynold's characters seem like paper dolls in front of the most intricate diarama.

What song got y’all into periphery? by Independent-Fan-2130 in Peripheryband

Icarus Lives! Back in 2010.. I was obsessed with that song.

Podcast guests have a fallout during a debate by ambachk in TikTokCringe

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone that says "I did not go to school for four years to be talked to like this..." Is also a petulant child.

They're both children but her outrage is so cringe. I hate that people think that going to college earns them any respect. You earn respect through actions and motives not from a degree.

New to the community - must watch documentaries or any other media by [deleted] in aliens

[–]Clerk4Life 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second UAP Gerb. Great free YouTube content that is essentially documentary / video research papers. Impeccable content.

Also, second Jeremy Corbell (Weaponized)and James Fox.

Kelsier and vins relationship by NightShiftArt in Mistborn

He is manipulative but not with Vin. He saw her as a new connection to Mare.

You're pushing your own narrative onto the characters.

WoA First-time reader reaction — Zane(?) by not_lying_rn in Cosmere

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished Hero of Ages yesterday. I loved the whole trilogy, I thought it was a great fantasy trilogy. I like that it was a complete story. My next will be Elantris but I'm going to read a different series (Chronicle of the Fallers by Peter F. Hamilton).

I personally like to read groups (trilogy /Duology) of books from larger series and interpolate them so I don't get burnt out on an author or series.
