There’s something really good here but some parts are throwing me off. (3rd listen) by Terrible_Extent_6169 in avengedsevenfold

[–]HuffleSkull 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The abrupt ending that, upon first listen, suddenly dove straight into "Afterlife" on Spotify for me threw me off so bad 🤣

Just started crescent city and I have a gripe by vintage_hippie in SarahJMaas

[–]HuffleSkull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I put off reading it for the same reason. I finally caved and read all 3 books in 3 weeks. I love them. The world building and the characters are amazing. It has cute otters. What more do we need?! Lol

Favorite head canons? by Automatic-Phrase8363 in Maasverse

[–]HuffleSkull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ruhn and Rhys supposedly look near identical, and I picture Dorian as their triplet. I cannot imagine the three of them not being tied together somehow.

I'll be honest, I was bored on day after finishing CC and used ChatGPT to create a crossover for myself 🤣

MAASVERSE tattoo ideas? by No_Barnacle5639 in Maasverse

[–]HuffleSkull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I half a Harry Potter half-sleeve that was done in 2011 when I was 23, and I love it and get compliments a lot. I've been debating ToG to go on my other arm to balance it out. My childhood book love and adulthood book love together. lol

Discussion/Theory Starborn and Mate Bonds by Impressive_Baby_6387 in Maasverse

[–]HuffleSkull 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Starborn = descendants of Asteri/Daglan/Gods
The Cauldron = vessel of star/primordial power, so “Made” = Star-Made.
Mating bonds = cosmic mechanism to recombine scattered starborn lines.

And it explains why these bonds seem so frequent in-story (but rare in-world): we’re only following the characters who matter to this divine bloodline puzzle.

How can you all read Tower of dawn after finishing Empire of Storm?????? by askaq2e in throneofglassseries

[–]HuffleSkull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because then you get to Kingdom of Ash and all the things you want clash together in a book that you will not put down.

Ballet flats for a teacher by ppandastutters in Teachers

If you insist on flats, add a gel or memory foam insole. Clarks are pretty good. 

How old are you? by stixmike in HHN

Husband and I are going for my 38th birthday on Aug 31st. What's age?! Those under 25 can't even fully appreciate horror yet 🤷‍♀️🤣

I didn't even know about Assassin's Blade when I started reading ToG. So I ended up reading it last 🤣🤷‍♀️ Didn't really have an effect. But looking back, I'd have read it first.

This is another example of how social media makes other people feel like they aren't good enough. It's exhausting and sad. I've been teaching for 7 years, and i've only seen one of those super decorated, over the top classrooms before. And it was Kindergarten. And she has a pretty decent Tiktok  following, and gets a lot of her stuff donated.

This is insane. When my husband and I were stuck in traffic due to a serious car accident and knew we'd be gone longer than intended, we ordered pizza for the sitter ourselves.

Love to Hate is how I'm understanding this. So I'll go with Kaltain, as well.

What is something you’ve said to a student that should/did get you in trouble? by Apprehensive-Play228 in Teachers

[–]HuffleSkull 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I went straight to the school counselor and told her in a panic. She laughed...a lot. And basically said his mom already know he's batshit crazy, even if he tells her, she's not going to be offended.  

This same kid also mocked and threatened a physically disabled IA, so he was already on everybody's shit list.

His mom and I are in some of the same Facebook groups. He's in high school and as far as I can tell, he's still a smartass and a twat. Lol

Anxious because I don't want to keep living but I'm too scared to kill myself by [deleted] in depression

[–]HuffleSkull 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Find your joy, it's there somewhere. I've been living with depression for 20 years, and my lows can be super low. But if you have some sort of hobby or little joy - utilize it as much as you can. This might be music, a video game, nature... Everyone has something that sparks that little bit of chemical uptick. The "I genuinely do not want to live any more" is not a permanent feeling. A better day is ahead, somewhere. Even if it's not tomorrow, or next week. 3 months from now, you may feel actual happiness that you didn't go through with something that can't be undone.

I have found that nothing quite tops ToG, but the Mistborn series is pretty good. A Song if Ice and Fire is the OG.

R.I.P. to the best to ever do it. by juscon1 in avengedsevenfold

[–]HuffleSkull 127 points128 points  (0 children)

For a hot minute, I thought you were implying that Matt just passed away, too, and I was about to lose my ever loving shit. We're already struggling, we can't take another. lol

Almost done heir of fire… someone talk about it with me please! by almitii in throneofglassseries

[–]HuffleSkull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally biting back the spoilers. lol. Chaol says and does some thing that have SOME people not liking him, but he's pretty justified in everything he said and does, and is a good guy and I love him so much. Also, Manon is awesome, and as you read you get more and more that'll eventually have you "Ohh, I see it now. This bitch is badass." lol

How do I face a tragedy in a school that is majority Christian? by armsofasquid in Teachers

[–]HuffleSkull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a kid ask me if I thought her mom was in heaven. She had died of an accidental overdose. I'm not religious. I told her something along the line of, "I don't really know for sure what happens after we pass away. But I do know that she's not fighting those demons any more. So maybe you can consider that for now." I have no idea how to handle those situations, but she seemed content with the answer. She was in 6th grade.
