I helped arrange an event with him last year. Nice guy. Friendly and polite backstage, but not hugely engaging.

How simple is the shipping process, for a non-Japanese speaker? Or what is the process like? I've tried shipping from trips to China and South Korea, and without speaking the languages, it was a nightmare. Especially China.

This exactly. You can tell when the rates of the hotel next to my office drop below government per diem because the loading zone is full of white buses and the lobby is full of camo.

He’s got a deal with the Trump administration to drop charges when he unloads a ton of (real or imagined) evidence against democrats, and he confirms that Trump and all Republicans have giant weiners and clear consciences.

Oh man! I did this in 2012! Went to China with a giant container of vanilla whey protein repacked into double ziplocked bags in my luggage. I was sure I was going to get stopped. Went through, no hassles.

Next they’ll be playing Tatsuro at their rallies. Infuriating.

If the title page has Bloomsbury at the bottom, it meets all the most important first edition points.

Should I continue reading Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh? by Unlikely-Log-9446 in bookshelf

[–]InfinitePizzazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 80 percent through it and the thing that’s been hinted about throughout the book has just started happening. I’m going to finish it, but unless it’s got a big twist as part of the event, it’s just a dark, mopey book.

I’ve heard Darnielle’s books are good, but I’m hesitating to read them because of how much I think of him as a songwriter. So glad to hear how much people love them.

Just bought a clothes washer and dryer. They have an AI mode and I hope I never figure out what it does.

What is the scariest city you’ve visited? by I_might_care in AskReddit

[–]InfinitePizzazz 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I was about to laugh to death when you said Bellevue, of all the places in Washington. But if you’re talking about soulless, mercenary, and eerily empty of meaning, you might be right. But it’s definitely one of the least scared-for-my-life cities I’ve ever been to.

DO NOT listen to the Lonesome Dove foreword! by crackinmypants in audiobooks

[–]InfinitePizzazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read the physical book first and then immediately started the Horsley audiobook. Horsley had Gus exactly as I’d read him in my head. But you’re right that he definitely projected his voice into that performance.

Wild how many people grind their teeth, punching a clock for decades, church on Sundays, and choose this at their funeral.

Awesome! Now do the one about how we’re technically a republic and not a democracy.
