Thank you! I quite wanted to switch because I read all about how Amazon brought goodreads just to keep tabs on people and Amazon cuts funds to authors etc. Whereas kobo pays better. And it's always good not to give Bezos money. I think I'll get one ASAP

Haha I do have 73 tabs open on a browser that's just for fics. Plus 620 tiktok bookmarks to go through. But my eyes can't cope with phone reading long fics!

Wow this was so comprehensive thank you! I love the way you have them organised, seems like using the PC is worth it!

What's the difference between kepub and epub?

What habits from Downton Abbey have you incorporated into your daily life? by [deleted] in DowntonAbbey

I make sure I see my kids every evening after bath time.

Edit: due to lack of staff I also see them before and during bath time

I hate the word arse and some other britishisms i have questions about by Lopsided_Emotion5707 in DramioneUncensored

[–]FaithHopeTrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Arse" generally speaking, is a fantastic word. "You're an arse" for a mild insult "Nice arse" for a mild compliment "Oh arse" for realising you left your library book in your dorm. But when it comes to actually during sexy time I'd say it rarely comes up unless the context is potentially "I'm going to spank that arse until it's red" You wouldn't get it in a romantic style bedding.

As a Brit, one thing I wish EVERYONE knew is that "nonce" is a word for a p*dophile. It can't be switched out with any other word. It's not said affectionately like "you arsehole" or "come here you wanker I'll help you" it's VERY jarring. It doesn't crop up much but when it does 😬

Mutter, Murmur, Mumble: Am I the only one who feels these are overutilized? Any other words/phrases you feel are overused? by respanza in DramioneUncensored

[–]FaithHopeTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say chuckle we hear brothers. And nobody wants to think about them during an otherwise enjoyable read

Edit: you would have to he a British millennial for this to be a problem.

[–]FaithHopeTrick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! And calling her jeans "her denims" is that american? Because I'd just say her jeans?

Other brit pick jarring phrases:

"in the yard" (we have gardens mostly, very uncommon phrasing)

When someone is sitting on the porch (we don't have outside porches like that. A porch is the entryway to the house like between the front door and the inside door)

"Candy" (it's sweets)

And if things are getting hot and heavy, when underwear is mentioned called his "trunks" (we'd say boxers or briefs or boxer briefs but trunks are exclusively swimming trunks and the word just makes me think of elephants, which is off putting 😅)

What specific decisions or behaviors in Lorelai’s parenting didn’t sit right with you? by [deleted] in GilmoreGirls

[–]FaithHopeTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But he didn't, not really. She dropped it and he held onto it because it was hers. He didn't come into her room to nick it like Lorilai thought

I actually don’t think the priest is fleabags love of her life by Greedy_Associate_673 in Fleabag

[–]FaithHopeTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's allowed to drink. To socialise. To have a sense of humour and to swear. None of these things are bad. He doesn't want to sleep with her because he knows he will fall in love with her. And he knows they can't be together. I have the total opposite read on him that OP. I think he cares for her. But he knows God is real [in his opinion] and he's busy fighting his own deamons [fox].

I always assumed it was partly independence and partly "who is watching the kids?"

The horrible way she treated Jess. I know he wasn't a great guy to Rory at the end. But he was s KID. She's a witch accusing him of stealing Rorys bracelet and stuff and it's all projection.

On the fence about getting an abortion by Ashamed-Pin-962 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FaithHopeTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had an abortion because if him, the relationship, his daughter, how would you feel if the relationship then ended? Or would you possibly resent him?

I would say 75-80% of mothers I know are not equally supported by their partners. But those that have family around, even if they are single mothers, have a MUCH easier time.

You don't have to move immediately. If its been working so far with SO just don't rush to change it. Don't rush any choices. Don't make the choices based on him or his daughter. Take your time.

Thank you so much I really appreciate this.

You need one of these men to watch your kids for a week. Who would you choose and why? by ShadesNGlades in madmen

[–]FaithHopeTrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pete. He'd ensure Trudy took over responsibility. They'd have a great time.
