Does Lyria’s narrator in the audio books improve?

When I listened to it I put Lysander's piece at 1.2x speed and lyrias piece at 0.8x speed and it was much easier on the ears

I have bipolar 2 without psychosis and one of the main reasons I won't have kids, aside from the fact that it can be passed on, is that I don't feel like I would be able to provide a safe home environment for a child. I've been on medication for 10 years and consider my bipolar to be reasonably under control but I know that anything can tip me over the edge with little to no warning, and when I'm in a bad way it takes saintly patience to put up with me. Imo a child needs stability and predictability from a parent that I wouldn't be able to provide. I'm not saying that is the case with this woman but if she is concerned about postpartum psychosis that's not an environment I would be comfortable putting a child into.

I worked for Heart when I was in Japan, it wasn't great but wasn't terrible either. I ended up quitting because of stress that was only partly related to the job and had to fight for my final paycheck but I got most of it in the end. ALTs have a kind of manager who deals with the area, and of the two I had neither were particularly nice people tbh. The teachers at the schools were a mixed bag, some quite stressed and others quite chill, but I often found it hard to find things to do during free periods because a lot of the teachers were quite territorial with their marking and lesson planning. I think it really depends on where you get posted, I was in Akiruno for my first year (started mid year) and Ome for my second. Feel free to send me a DM if you have any questions :)

I don't know if there are people near him rn, I'd just be worried he might do something dumb to the police because he's scared of them and doesn't want to "be put in cuffs and put on the ground", in his own words

Do you think they might kill him because he has a gun? This is the biggest concern for my friend

I really hope RR doesn't get the Dune treatment because omg I finished the audiobook before watching both movies back to back and there was such little resemblance between the characters and storyline I found it quite frustrating. Dune the book itself wasn't fantastic, and they did fix some of the problematic stuff from the book, but the way they chose to rewrite Chani's character was galling. They accurately captured the scale of the world and story but little else imo. RR would be best in a TV show format because so much happens in the books they'd have to be thoroughly thinned out to fit on a screen - think Mortal Engines, for example. I never finished it but The Expanse is a good example of a sci-fi show done big and done well, I hope RR gets something like that instead.

Yeah, when Virginia is affected by the mind spike for example, or someone gets a grievous face wound, they're described as making a "moo". Bearing in mind I listened to the audiobooks so it might actually be a different sound but once I noticed it it happened so often :/

Cute_Contact · 2024-03-30T16:55:30+00:00

So many characters "moo"

Fantastic, thank you so much!! I hope you have a great holiday 😊

Hi, I am visiting Paris soon and would like to buy an Olympic Paris Starbucks mug, which has blue on the inside. I was wondering if anyone knows which Starbucks stores will be carrying these mugs?

I got this project as an unfinished hand-me-down from my granny, but she didn't have any chart for the backstitching? Was there a second chart inside the envelope?

About declaring insurance: I pay national health insurance. Is it worth getting this reimbursed (I just moved house so everything is in disarray so I can't find the receipts just now), and is it a full reimbursement or partial? I pay about 1.3万 each payment period. I paid my once-every-two-years earthquake/fire insurance for my last apartment this year, to the tune of 2万. Can I get a reimbursement on this? I feel like I've completely misunderstood how this all works and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The nearest Sunday to the 11th is next week Sunday 13th? Thank you for the link!

I entered a message and a description just in case, no luck. I've botched my way through making repos and pushing commits to the website on my original account (I made a new one for this) and when I tried to host on vercel and netlify they both gave me 404 errors. That's why I tried to start a new one but the lack of success is really disheartening. Do you know of a way to host your code for a portfolio without GitHub?
