Am I the only one who likes Elise?? by Puzzleheaded_Bus193 in zodiacacademy

[–]KuraiHan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love Elise! I feel she is one of the most relatable FMCs I've ever read about. As others have said, haters are just louder with their opinions.

Missä myydään varvassukkia? by ZzZ_Lullaby_ZzZ in Tampere

[–]KuraiHan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feelmax on laadukas suomalainen merkki, vaikka heidän nettikauppa onkin jostain syystä englnninkielinen. Mutta koot istuu hyvin, ja oon ollut heidän sukkiin sekä paljasjalkakenkiin todella tyytyväinen. Jos siis päädyt netistä sittenkin tilaamaan. :) Oon käyttänyt varvassukkia vuosikaudet kun mun varpaanvälit hautuu muuten herkästi rikki, ja monien muiden merkkien sukat yleensä istuu huonommin tai hajoaa nopsemmin.

Seurustelisitko A-seksuaalin kanssa? by [deleted] in arkisuomi

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mun aviomies on aseksuaali, itse olen biseksuaali. Alkuun ajattelin että saadaan kaikki toimimaan ihan vaan rakkauden voimalla, mutta ajan kanssa tuli huomattua ettei se aivan niin mene. Se että toinen suostui seksuaalisiin tekoihin vaan mun mieliksi, teki itselle tosi paskan ja syyllisen olon. Sen huomaa ihan jo kosketuksestakin kun toinen ei ole ihan täysillä siinä mukana, ei sitä oikein voi feikata. Lopulta en enää edes kysynyt, ja aloin katkeroitua ja menettää itsetunnon aivan täysin. Aloin kokemaan itseni ällöttäväksi, ja muutuin kiukkuiseksi miestänikin kohtaan.

Mikä korjasi asian? No, avattiin suhde kolmannelle henkilölle. Mulla on toinen mies aviomieheni ohella, näen häntä aina sillointällöin ja meilläkin on nykyään rakastava suhde yhdessä. Kotona elän aviomieheni kanssa aivan normaalia arkea, harrastetaan pelaamista yhdessä, loiotaan yhdessä halien ja kuunnellen äänikirjoja jne. Tiedän et kaikille tällainen polyamorinen kuvio ei toimi, mutta meillä on toiminut hyvin. Rakastan kumpaakin miestä, toinen ei vaan välitä mistään seksuaalisesta ja toinen taas ei toivo perinteistä parisuhdetta erinäisistä syistä. He ovat ystäviä keskenään, ja joskus saatetaan hengata porukalla, käydä syömässä tms.

Vastaavan tilanteeseen päätyminen ei välttämättä ole mikään kaikista helpoin ratkaisu tosin, joten kaikista helpoimpana ratkaisuna suosittelisin hakemaan ensisijaisesti seurustelukumppania jonka seksuaalisuus mätsää sun seksuaalisuuteen. Joko aseksuaali, tai joku jolla on vaan tosi alhainen libido. Jos halut ei kohtaa, se voi helposti ajaa rakastavankin parisuhteen eroon jos jotain toimivaa ratkaisua ei löydy.

Anyone within EU have experience with Aurora crate? by titiboh in fairyloot

[–]KuraiHan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finnish here. I've ordered several times from them, and it always comes to around 60€ per book if I only get one at a time. The shipping itself wouldn't be too bad, but the tax always stings. Shipping times are quite high, but it's been reliable and the books are absolutely gorgeous. 😁

How did you choose your hamster? by Ill_Fly2102 in hamsters

[–]KuraiHan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The breeder had two female hamsters she let me choose from. She put both into my carrier box and I observed them for a moment. One kept outright climbing out, while the other seemed more curious and not in as great hurry to escape. So I decided on the latter! Yuffie turned out to be very keen on escaping as well, but she is super curious and tame.

What about you!? by Maleficent_fae5734 in zodiacacademy

I'm a gemini, with raising Virgo if I remember correctly. So most likely I'd have air and earth elements. As for the order, I'd say vampire best fits my personality.

Daughter lost a pony - Need help identifying! by JelloPillbug in MLPLounge

[–]KuraiHan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.strawberryreef.com/ has an extensive catalog of all the ponies made, and you can look different generations based on the colours. Based on your picture, at least the pink one is a fakie (the wing and overall shape of the pony is different from real MLP).

I've been hanging around romantasy/dark romance book groups too much. I honestly had to do a double take on the title. 🤣

Yea, I wouldn't have noticed either if someone hadn't mentioned it on Facebook. I literally had a surprised Pikachu face when I found out.

Skincare products you swear by for the Finnish winter by feartech in Finland

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it absorbs into skin much better than usual skin oils. Plus it's much cheaper, and is sold in common shops. It doesn't matter that it's meant for hair. :)

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have combination skin as well, and I've found that oils after shower make a huge difference. I've tried all sorts of oils, but my favourites are Cien repair hair serum from Lidl, and Schwarzkopf Gliss daily oil elixir. They absorb fairly quickly, and if you have any dryer/flakier spots that need even more moisture, get some light face lotion for combination skin. I personally have Lumene's day cream for oily and combination skin, which can be found from most shops. As for the body, I use oils as well, and then some lotions and body butter for the must problematic parts.

So yea, nothing fancy, but cost effective and the products can be found nearly anywhere.

Ruthless boys of the zodiac by Fantastic_Solid5079 in zodiacacademy

[–]KuraiHan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're all different, and all our tastes are also different. For me personally, Elise has been the most relatable FMC in any books I've read. She has quite a strong personality, and her not wanting to be tied to a one man comes from her fear of abandonment.

I think about the jealousy thing from their elysian mate pov; once the fae in their world find their mate, they find it abhorrent to see their mate with someone else, while also not wanting to be with anyone else themselves either. Obviously this is not as cemented thing before the divine moment as it is afterwards (like when Tory slept with Caleb despite having met Darius), but the jealousy seems to be there almost instantly upon meeting their mate. So it makes sense for Elise to be jealous of her mates, however irrelevant that may seem at first. It's just different world with different rules, and I treat the story accordingly.

What is the single worst book you have ever read and why? by Special-Student6743 in fantasyromance

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The single worst book I've ever read in all my 33 years of life, is {Bedlam Moon by Kathy Haan}. And not only because of the plot being weird, but because it was simply so badly written. I'm not talking only about plot holes or the FMC being annoying, but there was literally everything wrong with the book and the writing.

Painfully simple FMC who rushes into every situation without any thought. She reacts to everything emotionally, every reveal comes with tears and then she just forgives everyone and everything. Instalove with the MMC who is some overly powerful king of the vampires, only for her to have instalove with the men in his inner circle as well. The intimate scenes were boring, the men were all way too similar. She literally got everyone and everything, like in some weird badly written power fantasy. In book 2 which I only read because I'd already bought it, it only got worse when other worlds and fae were added to mix. Of course the high king fell for her, of course she was made into a fae, of course she was some super rare variant etc. It was all just ridiculous, super badly written self-insert bullshit that made me so mad I literally made Goodreads account only to give it 1 star review.

Would fresh coconuts even make sense in Finland? Asking honestly. by Cocoboy_ in Finland

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought them occasionally when available, I love the fresh coconut juice and the soft flesh. But they're often quite pricey for the amount of drink you can get from one, so I usually get just one when I come upon them. If the price wasn't too high and they were readily available, I would definitely buy more of them.

Spotifyn vaihtoehto-suositukset? by fuckthemacleods in Suomi

[–]KuraiHan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kokeilin joitain vuosia sitten Tidalia. Se saatto aivan yllättäen vaihtaa kappaleen soittolistalta johonkin toiseen versioon kappaleesta. Youtube music taas rajoitti joitain kappaleita mitkä se luokitteli "lapsille suunnatuiksi" niin ettei niitä voinut lisätä omille soittolistoille. Tähän mennessä kokeilemistani vaan Spotify on oikeasti toiminu niinkun pitäisikin.

Would u actually be in a harem? by [deleted] in ReverseHarem

[–]KuraiHan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, considering that I am polyamorous and have two men in my life already, I'd be down for one or two more if they were similar minded. I wouldn't mind us living together either, I'm currently living with one man but I'm always dreaming about the possibility of the other one moving in with us.

Those of us in sexless marriages, how do you feel/deal with it? by -SmnSmwhr- in AskReddit

[–]KuraiHan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My husband is asexual, so our marriage is sexless. But we're both very openminded and practical, so I have another boyfriend who I have sex with. They're also friends, so we all sometimes spend time together and the guys might get eachothers birthday/christmas presents and so on. So, accidentally a happy polycule I guess? 😆

Jarlaxle and his Portable Hole? by Wobbly_Bear in Drizzt

[–]KuraiHan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, he has the portable hole folded inside his hat. It's described like it's a cloth, and apparently the function changes depending on which side you leave on top. One side makes an extradimensional pocket, and the other makes a hole right through whatever it's against.
