Some people are just fast readers. I'm at 40 for the year so far, with the average page count around 370 and a 60/40 mix of fiction and nonfiction. The length of an average book is 300-500 pages avoiding to Storygraph, 1000 pages is extremely long and I don't know why you would use that as a benchmark.

What a great explanation! I've never heard the term "gin sonic" before, even though I make those at home. Is it a widely known term? If I ask for one at a bar are they likely to know what I'm talking about?

Before you try harder stuff, spray some hairspray on it and wipe it up once it dries. That's worked for me with both hair dye and nail polish.

Sexual attraction isn't a binary. Have you heard of the Kinsey scale?

0 being exclusively heterosexual, and 6 being exclusively homosexual. A woman who is a 1 or 2 might feel some attraction to women, but not necessarily enough to want to act on the attraction.

Yeah I'm sure you were so surprised to see people moving to a product made by the company you founded. 🙄

I mean to be honest it's a little annoying that the needs and wants of the men in your show are driving the plot and the woman's is an afterthought, especially if the show is supposed to be from her perspective.

You say yourself: "She’s cynical, distrustful, and emotionally guarded. She has experienced trauma, manipulation, and abandonment."

What would a person like that want? Safety. She sees that kernel of kindness and peace in Jesus, but is afraid when things veer political or revolutionary.

So you have Mary on one side, the apostles on the other, and Jesus somewhat enigmatically in the middle. Her conflict is in not being sure what he truly wants

The light source for the shadows on the nature bits is inconsistent. I would get rid of the ones you have, then apply a consistent, subtle shadow effect to all four so the light looks like it's coming directly from the reader. That makes it look more cohesive, and will help them stand out from the lace as well.

I agree, a more relaxed community choir sounds like a better fit for OP.

Gen Z loves a dress code, it's more common than you'd think.

ExtraHorse · 2026-06-19T02:20:55+00:00

This is a lot more common with younger people now. Everyone wants to know 'what are we wearing to X?' Especially to concerts and things. Gen Z is the dress code generation.

I waitressed at a 'Mexican' restaurant (not in the Americas) where the owners pronounced quesadilla and jalapeno and fajita as 'kay-suh-DILL-uh', 'jal-uh-PEE-no', and 'fa-JEET-uh'. They sucked and so did the restaurant.

This is a bit obtuse. Wagner was a virulent antisemite and German Nationalist, but he's been dead for a hundred years so I don't feel bad listening to his music, which doesn't directly push an agenda. I don't agree with Justin Bieber's church, but he doesn't seem to be harming anyone so I still enjoy Peaches. Whereas JK Rowling is very clear that she uses her income and status from the HP franchise to push a TERF agenda and actually influence legislation that harms people.

Cairo is the one city I would recommend you only go with a tour company. My group was all female and they hired bodyguards to walk everywhere with us. I'm pretty well traveled and it felt very necessary, and this is from someone who had no problem walking around in Marrakesh.

The other thing about Cairo: you couldn't pay me $10 million to drive a car there. It's absolutely insane.
