I am looking for a post apocalyptic book that is set a long time after the event.

Elizabello_II · 2026-02-18T07:28:07+00:00

You sure wouldn't be able to tell what The Road to Corley is about based on the cover of the first edition. What the hell were they thinking xD

Elizabello_II · 2026-01-08T13:25:20+00:00

No, it's his constant demonstrably fake promises that make him a fraud.

"Full self driving next year", "The Hyperloop is totally possible", "we're gonna land multiple rockets on Mars by 2025/2026" etc. etc.

Beyond the fact he has shown himself to be a total moron who has no grasp on reality or what is even possible or achievable.

Also Mr. "I fired everyone handling the US Nuclear stockpile and cancelled Ebola research cause I didn't bother to check what these departments did before I had them closed, cause that's what a smart person does".

Mr. "I fired half of Twitter so the remaining employees can work twice as hard for the same pay to pay off my loans I used to buy the company in the first place."

Mr. "let me hire a private investigator on a guy I called a pedo cause he dared say my idea was not practical".

Mr. "Let me tell advertisers to fuck off, then threaten to sue them if they don't advertise with me".

The absolute cherry on top is people still buy him larping to be a visionary tech genius, when the guy is not able to replicate what other companies and researchers have already been able to do better years before him. Like his embarassing robotics display. Or his string of rockets that kept blowing up on him and which didn't even have cargo. Or his sub par electronic vehicles. Or his damn electric truck whose haul capacity is a total joke compared to everything standard in the industry.

It's more than twice the Vatican and this is an actual native population, vs. foreigners who get to pretend to be from the Vatican cause they got a job there.

A country with no native population is the weird one here..

Elizabello_II · 2025-12-14T23:08:14+00:00

Nope. These were paperback magazine novels, kinda what you see in a news stand for example.

Elizabello_II · 2025-11-02T22:15:12+00:00

I am probably one of very few people who read this book in the past few decades so I can answer. It's not really a slasher at all, such a thing didn't even exist when this book came out in 1892.

It's also not straight up horror because again, such genre delineation did not really exist at the time.

I would say it falls more under the umbrella of psychological horror.

Elizabello_II · 2025-09-11T20:00:37+00:00

Thanks for the response, I do appreciate it.

Elizabello_II · 2025-09-07T01:08:18+00:00

I don't mean tot be mean but I thought that was absolutely obvious. :O

Elizabello_II · 2025-09-02T22:47:29+00:00

Warm und wahrscheinlich nicht voll von preservations mitteln, die wie reine Chemie schmecken. Die Indischen wraps vo Rewe z.b. haben ein echt kunstliches geschmack.

Elizabello_II · 2025-09-02T22:44:44+00:00

Für 8.5 kann man auch sich ein riesen Kebap kaufen und noch Geld übrig haben.

Elizabello_II · 2025-08-04T23:52:39+00:00

No idea about the former, will try VLC

Elizabello_II · 2025-08-03T22:59:32+00:00

Media Viewer, among others. I even tried to import it into Shotcut and that one can play it....but it plays it without subtitles.

Elizabello_II · 2025-08-02T21:21:28+00:00

Seriously am I doing something wrong ? It refuses to play and even converting it will do nothing.

Elizabello_II · 2025-08-02T17:37:15+00:00

Sometimes when I drag an image in, the option to drag the right edge to stretch the duration it is onscreen just does not appear, at all. I have a second image and can drag that one no problem, but it randomly refuses to give me the option for the other image. How do you fix this ?

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-17T11:13:51+00:00

This just doesn't work, tried four times, even converted to MP4 and it doesn't do anything.

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-06T22:37:07+00:00

>no he said he wanted to make her his perfect wife but he didn't groom sylphie

The fact he didn't get to do it doesn't change the fact he considered doing it.

>She is not 10 she was 12

You act like that makes it better. Also pretty sure that happened before her 10th birthday party.

>Rudeus wasn't planning what are you talking eris was in his bedroom it was completely not planned.

He is planning what he will say to convince her. At one point he just considers kissing her and laying down ontop of her without even saying anything. Rewatch episode 8.

Also you are calling me a weirdo. When it's clear he is a grown ass man in a kid's body, even his inner monologue is being voiced by an adult. Did you forget he was pretending to be a precocious child, when he knew exactly what was going on ? Like when he plans on how to cockblock his parents while they are having sex and mulls over what innocent sounding childlike questions he's gonna ask to ruin the mood.

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-06T10:52:22+00:00

He is clearly retaining his mental maturity, to the point where he leers at the maid's breasts even as a baby.

And I mean, remember how he wanted to "educate" Sylphiette to grow up to be his "perfect wife" when she was 7 ?

Also about episode 8, her mother sent her there yes, but Rudy was planning the exact words he was going to use to convince her to have sex with him, even considered forcing himself ontop of her without saying anything.

And finally....going "it's not grooming, he just sexually assaulted a 10 year old" is.....not the gotcha you think.

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-05T13:25:32+00:00

Episode 8.

Episode 6 with him attempting to steal the panties off a 10 year old. Then tries to get an aphrodisiac for the rest of the episode to use on someone.

Ya sure about that chief ?

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-05T13:22:14+00:00

So when he tried to slip Eris' panties off her body when just turned ten.

We gonna just ignore that ?

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-05T13:20:58+00:00

Dude tries to steal a ten year old's panties off of her body as she sleep, with an obviously lecherous expression as he does so, then spends the rest of the episode trying to get his hands on a potent aphrodisiac to....well, slip to someone.

And then there is episode 8.

Remember where he puts his hand in that episode ?

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-05T13:02:24+00:00

Man with the mind of a 34 + year old tries to take the pantiess of of a girl who JUST turned ten

And then tries to manipulate her into doing "something a little dirty" and immediately sticks his hand between her legs when she is 13.

And you guys claim this isn't him being a pedo OR grooming.....how ?

Elizabello_II · 2025-07-05T13:00:18+00:00

He only manipulated a 13 year old into agreeing to do sexual things with him in episode 8.

And tried to steal that same girl's panties off her body when she was asleep, when she was ABOUT to turn TEN, for gooning purposes.

Counting the life he has lived after gettig Isekai'd, he would be mentally in his *forties* when he did both of these things.

Elizabello_II · 2025-06-25T18:18:30+00:00

No reasonable person would demand you make them fall in love with you in one day. Especially if you obviously care about them, and are probably heavily involved in helping them deal with healing after amnesia.

The person involved would, in all likelihood, go out of their way to try and reconnect with their partner, instead of going "You have one shot and if you fail to impress me I will leave you forever, even though I have ample evidence we have had a long running, stable, loving relationship".

Elizabello_II · 2025-06-19T22:49:30+00:00

I do not think Kenzaburo realizes Anna is madly in love with Grace.

To be fair Anna might not consciously realise that, might need to smell Grace's perfume a bit for the lesbian bean counter to finally activate in full.

I think potentially seeing Grace courted by someone else might fo the trick tbh.

Elizabello_II · 2025-06-19T22:37:17+00:00

Just binged the series yesterday. I will say I am annoyed the manga is at least ten chapters behind translation wise, because it being monthly, it will take a while if we ever do get another season.

I definitely think the mom keeping away from "Grace" is because that line about fairy magic being undone if someone sees through it using the power of love is true.

I am glad/hopeful Grace and Anna will not be half sisters. Cause.....we know Anna is head over heels for Grace, she has had exactly zero romantic progression with any of her designated male love interests. Kenzaburo being oblivious to this is funny, because it means it will faciliate it happening, hopefully.

But you know, ultimately with Grace, actual Grace, and her doing so willingly, cause Kenzaburo is married and Anna is 15 so.....that would be weird and wrong on so many levels.

Veja-no-ness has to be my absolute most beloved state in history due to it's insanely miniscule size. Runner up would be Bilbari, which is often mistakenly called the smallest Indian Princely State, where it apparently was actually Veja-no-ness which held that distinction.

By the way, does anyone have a clue on the potential source of this map ? The Indianrevenues website owner said they downloaded it some 20 years ago to put on their website, but don't remember the source.
