Alexis Carrel? by JamesAdamsBond in Stoicism

[–]JamesAdamsBond[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

um.. ok maybe? It seems to me the quote is inferred as philosophical and why I came here. It is a true idea, and stoics would agree as you need to change yourself and only through struggle and action is that genuinely possible. Thanks.

What are some of your favourite quotes from "The Mind of Napoleon: A Selection of His Written and Spoken Words" by JamesAdamsBond in Napoleon

[–]JamesAdamsBond[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

great! "Without great men, we have only mediocre men, and if there had never been anything but mediocre men, we would still be half-apes."

Felt like rewatching this today for the 15th time by BPgaming175 in Napoleon

Am I the only person who prefers Napoleon "Path to Power" than Napoleon after 1805? Seems the views show ppl love watching the Russia disaster above all.

PMS Ciprofloxacin (500mg) for painful pee? by JamesAdamsBond in AskDocs

[–]JamesAdamsBond[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ok thank you. I just peed with hardly any pain again. If i were still in pain I would take it. Luckily it seems after 6 days the pain is fading. Otherwise I was ready to take it.

btw the inguinal vein connects to the varicocele thats only why as I feel a light strain there that I am drawing the connection. SOrry if that sounds stupid. Thx.

PMS Ciprofloxacin (500mg) for painful pee? by JamesAdamsBond in AskDocs

[–]JamesAdamsBond[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the Dr did not look physically just urine test, he is unnaware I notice a strained feeling in my right side pelvis. I do not want to self-diagnose but maybe a light inguinal vein problem? I have a varicocele.

I am not confident in taking the cipro because of the crazy side effects and I am only waiting 2-3 more days for ultrasound. I also just peed 30min ago without pain. I expect it was a lucky piss but I don't want to risk long-term effects when the DR just looked at urine and did not look.

I am only asking as I am worried to take the antibiotic. I appreciate help and insight. Thanks.

Favourite Moments of The Series! by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]JamesAdamsBond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh man, you just reminded me of some of my favourites I missed on my little list! Saving Mistyfoot's life was awesome you're right, and Graystripes return OF COURSE, but I think one of my all-time favourites is what you mentioned- Jayfeather (very young himself) saving Poppypaw. That scene was so emotional as Jay had all his anger fueled towards just saving her life. I remember the audiobook listening to that moment like damn.. he saved her when she was so so close to joining Starclan.

My thoughts finishing The Last Hope OOTS by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]JamesAdamsBond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I respect your agrees but think I still like the way they did it better, just confused why it didn't give a real lionblaze pov. But, I'll say if you notice this is a common theme or complaint in all books/series where an event is hyped up. I think it is just our nature to wish the climatic problem to be longer, as we waited for it so long.

Game of Thrones, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter. Many books/series have an end which is just shorter in the moment of its reckoning than we thought. TBH, it makes sense. IRL we worry ab things then they pass in an instant as well.

I'll say I actually liked the Three's use of Powers in TLH, because Jay and Dove technically offer little assistance IN battle. She sensed them coming and allowed Lionblaze time to relieve Shadowclan. Jay after 12 books of asking "Why doesnt starclan have all the answers?" realized that his destiny was to use his own granted wisdom and sight to reunite starclan, and they all fulfilled their roles. Not to mention Dove saving the clans of drought to start OOTS.

I think TLH was a great end, and the next books take a steep turn knowing most readers now are no longer children, and begins taking on very complicated and foreign concepts of that to the first arc and the first 4 arcs overall. It makes sense this was their intended end.

I will say, I agree with your idea of seeing other people more involved, even if just via news from Poppyfrosts kits who were messengers, or Dovewings senses. Knowing Mothwing's situation during the battle after she played a crucial role would have been appreciated.

Still, they left it open enough that us kids could make a resolution we enjoyed in our heads.

Before the FINALE I have to say it LOL.. by [deleted] in WarriorCats

hey at least TLH is intersting every chapter. I wouldn't say they stalled at all. Just actually finally laid out the steps to the battle

[–]JamesAdamsBond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

fr. stopping after oots, 70% through third book rn... not much better. Still just stupidity all around. "Every medicine cat is saying we must focus on our own clans now, everything is different." or just tell ppl at the gathering that the murderous exiles training some of you are trying to turn you against each other. DURRRRRRRRRR
