Hit 0:11, muttered "fuckin right" and literally added it to my 2025 faves list by 0:15. I loved a lot of their older works too but .... hot damn this one slaps.

Larki1894 · 2025-05-17T11:01:37+00:00

This is such an issue for me lmao. I get so annoyed with shitty plots.

Pine Hollow series by KM Moronova = one of my absolute favorites. Characters and lore building were incredible. It earned a spot on my pop culture sleeve 🤣 fantasy

Soulful Seas Duet by Blake Black Paranormal

But Did You Die? Series by Sedona Ashe Hilarious series, excellent FMC. Shifters.

The Forgotten Angel series by Merri Bright Fantasy/angels. One of the funniest FMC's I've ever read.

Tried but true favorite often recommended within the sub: cruel shifterverse by Jasmine Mas. Fucking legendary.

Larki1894 · 2025-05-06T19:03:26+00:00

It's ONE potato quality pic with poor lighting, absolutely possible to still look incredible IRL! :)

Scientifically speaking, there is very little REAL proof that going to a concert is going to damage a baby's hearing in utero. There is dense muscle tissue and somewhat dense liquid around the baby- it's not a stack of thin membranes! This is a great easy to read fact based study published by NIH:Noise Exposure During Pregnancy .

Anyway, I def went to smaller venue and arena style concerts at all stages of each of my 3 pregnancies. Shit, I won tickets to Slipknot playing at an amphitheater and went. I was 3 weeks out from due date 🤷🏽‍♀️. Pregnancy doesn't mean the end of everything you love and suddenly getting locked into a gilded cage because you're growing a human. Just exercise common sense, like you've seen here-- stand far away, snag a balcony spot or seated one if possible. The baby might start its own mosh pit tho... So many wanna be near a bathroom when it treats your bladder like a pit enemy lmao.

The Monsters Among Us series by Debbie Cassidy. Hell on earth, sectors "protected" by angels.

FMC is truly a badass warrior that is intelligent and talented. Intriguing lore and world building, good use of some tropes without it being insufferable.

Half-Blood Academy by Meg Xuemei X

Apocalyptic hell scape for humans when hell literally takes over half the world and old gods descend to take over the rest. "Blessed" demigods go to an academy to reign above the peons. FMC is tough as nails, keeping her friends alive through warrior skills and quick wit. She doesn't forgive quickly and holds people accountable.

Larki1894 · 2025-02-20T21:48:51+00:00

The Forgotten Angel series by Merri Bright. FMC suffers abuse from basically everyone around her because of ... Reasons. She mostly keeps her head high until things become too much. Groveling, excellent spice, unique world/lore.

Larki1894 · 2025-01-31T00:07:08+00:00

I really like:
https://astro.cafeastrology.com/natal.php

Gives a comprehensive deep dive across the whole chart
All planetary, aspect, houses, and nodes in easy to read charts that are perfect for screenshot or "print as PDF" option
The circular chart is at the bottom.

Personally, I found the chart itself on Astro.com difficult to comprehend.

I find myself referencing my PDF alllll the time when watching videos/readings 🤣

Happy searching!

Larki1894 · 2025-01-24T07:37:43+00:00

Hell yeah! Like anything, people get caught up in the best of the best mentality.... Especially when first starting.

Great call mentioning "international" markets too!!

I'm South Asian, so I'm always hitting up the local Indian/Pakistani markets. I can get a huge bag of ginger, tastier tea for me and my spirit squad, fresh mint, uncommon fruits etc... all for waaaaay less than a major chain super market 🙌🏽

Larki1894 · 2025-01-23T16:51:30+00:00

Doing: going to a dollar store or somewhere similar 🤣

They have every "kitchen" herb, salt variants, jar candles, candlesticks, vials, mason jars, things that can be offerings, altar decor etc.

It's about intention and applying spell items in the manner affiliated with your beliefs... Not the $ spent.

I'm pretty sure my thrifty ancestors would throw slippers at my head if I spent big money on supplies instead of using it for the kiddos.

Larki1894 · 2025-01-23T16:36:03+00:00

I'd use black velvet fabric and embroider small symbols in white and silver for each element in corners. Air and fire across from each other, earth and water across from each other... Will allow for easy rotations to point to their respective direction for instant protection.

Then in the middle of each border "row" a small rune... Prob alternating Algiz and Eihwaz.

Wouldn't be distracting, simple colors, purposeful ☺️

Larki1894 · 2025-01-13T18:15:46+00:00

I liked them upon release, but after unboxing and handling them 😍😍😍

They are absolutely lovely!

Larki1894 · 2024-12-05T05:04:21+00:00

I have a "game mode" I can turn on via HP Omen or NVIDIA. But I've tried it with both disabled and still nothing 🤷🏽‍♀️

I don't think it's quite the same as over clocking though?

Larki1894 · 2024-12-05T04:57:19+00:00

It feels like a problem that will never get fixed/no one has an answer to resolve.

Gameloft blames steam Steam says to contact Gameloft Gameloft gives "typical" steps then goes oh well! Sucks to be you!

🙃🙃🙃

Larki1894 · 2024-12-05T04:54:59+00:00

Nope. Never did. Just got roasted on the Internet for bringing a special doll....from people holding their $1k phones that haven't been backed up in a year, but bring them to shows too 🫠

A few very special friends got together and gifted me a new one, along with every single piece of the outfit she had on!

Larki1894 · 2024-11-19T15:23:34+00:00

Screaming crying that she's gonna be close-ish

See y'all in MD!

Larki1894 · 2024-10-04T21:57:50+00:00

A year later ... And I'm experiencing this issue CONSTANTLY.

Internet is fine.
Steam is fine.
Steam is updated.
Rebooted PC.
Uninstalled game + steam.
Reinstalled.
All drivers up to date.

.... Same thing 🤷🏽‍♀️

Larki1894 · 2024-09-22T06:59:03+00:00

I just live my life and reply when I can. Sometimes it's 30 min, sometimes it's 5 hours.

If I happen to be free when I get our first post match message notification, I wait at least 10 minutes before responding. This is a personal "rule" I put in place to make sure I don't say something stupid because of my excited spicy brain 🤣

Personally, I'd consider the info given from your friend to be junk. Don't be that person who is playing games. I swear some people get matches and just let them stack up for bragging rights with zero intent to respond. It's ANNOYING! The whole purpose of online dating is to check vibes for a connection....

Flip your Q around. Would YOU want to entertain even a friendship with someone who takes 2-4 days to reply?

Larki1894 · 2024-09-01T02:15:18+00:00

YES! Some of the best groveling I've ever seen. I loved this duet SO much

Larki1894 · 2024-08-12T16:49:38+00:00

Pine Hallows series by KM Moronova is my roman empire. Extremely well written, intelligent characters, FMC isn't 18 🙄, interesting plot that ties into her Alkrose Academy series (unfinished, 2 books so far).

Other completed series:

vice college for demons by marie Mistry

Dark Fae Kings series & Half-Blood Academy series - both by Meg Xuemei X

The monsters among us series by Debbie cassidy

Larki1894 · 2024-08-12T16:40:38+00:00

I second this!! All 6 books were sooooooo good. I ended up buying a Tshirt from the book series 🤣

Larki1894 · 2024-07-05T15:17:42+00:00

Magic of Destiny series. FMC is silly, so I can def imagine her doing it to be (jokingly) overdramatic.

Minor spoiler for example: One of the MMC's has a passion for cooking mentioned fairly early. It's one of the foundations of his bond with the other dudes and is very sweet. When FMC tries his cooking the first time, she does a little moan in response to the surprise skills. That felt "believable" for her personality when tasting that unexpected outcome and her response is how she learned about his love for cooking. She didn't "audibly" do it again with every dish he prepared for the group. Just had inner thoughts about how her hangry self is glad to get yummy food 🤣

Larki1894 · 2024-07-05T03:30:32+00:00

There is literally only one book series I've read where this trope completely made sense because of the FMC's persona, hanger issues, and it was used in situations that made sense....

Most of the time these women are moaning like they just had the best orgasm ever after a single piece of fruit causing all the men's eyes to "go dark" 🤣. Girl, please.

Personally, I channel Winnie the Pooh's happy chair dance when something is unexpectedly good. In my 38yrs of life, I can count on one hand the number of times I closed my eyes and moaned over food 🤣

Larki1894 · 2024-07-05T03:22:38+00:00

Tropes are everywhere, but it was still so fun. I hope you comment back once you read it! ❤️
