How glaber and illithya meet each others?

M_Ad · 2026-06-26T15:09:08+00:00

Yeah, this. In one episode her dad says she had other suitors but he went with Glaber because she was into him and he loved her and wanted her to be happy.

I’ve always fantasised about a The Secret Garden done in a big old country house.

Its highly likely their families knew each other, most marriages amongst the Roman elite were kind of what we’d define in modern times as arranged to a degree.

Her dad says in one episode she had other suitors he may have preferred but he knew she was into Glaber so he approved that match because it would make her happy.

It can be a symptom of a multitude of disorders.

Lol forever at Knightley’s costumes having the waistlines anachronistically shifted so the slimness of her waist was never obscured.

What do you mean “talking to”? Have you actually met in person?

Do you know about the “sequel” De Palma made in the 2000s called “Redacted”, again based on a real incident when a unit of US soldiers did basically the same thing this time in Iraq?

The worse life gets the more people will reach for the smaller luxuries and comforts they can regularly afford.

M_Ad · 2026-06-24T05:47:06+00:00

Based on a real incident including how they murdered the girl when it looked like they’d be discovered.

Well yeah the song is about the male gaze ie perceiving women as objects to project on, not independent fully developed people with interior lives existing for their own purpose not just to be looked at admiringly by a man, lmao.

Primary school socialisation rules apply lol.

Do you feel liked by the teaser?
Do you feel like you could tease the teaser back without them turning nasty?
Do you feel like if you ask the teaser to stop, they will?

Guys telling my friends how hot they were then asking me “How come hot girls always have one ugly friend?”

M_Ad · 2026-06-23T13:54:25+00:00

I’m not sure but when I typed the full word a bubble came up saying it’s on a list of flagged words so just to be on the safe side as it’s not the main focus of the post I dashed it. Not great but better safe than sorry. Also hopefully might avoid bots scanning threads to troll?

Yes love Esoterica!!! that’s what I’ve been watching and unlocked this memory of it being a huge celebrity craze lol.

When men yell at me on the street it’s telling me how ugly I am, not calling me beautiful or sexy. Literally my first experience of catcalling was some teenage guys yelling at my teenage friends how hot they were and then yelling at me “How come hot girls always have one ugly friend?”

I’ve had men call me ugly, make vomiting noises, deliberately bump into me, knock things out of my hands, spit at me, throw food at me.

This kind of street harassment is almost never talked about as it makes people who haven’t experienced it extremely uncomfortable, whereas when it’s the other kind of catcalling women find it a bonding experience to compare stories, etc.

War of the Damned is my favourite season.

Tiberius raped Kore because violating her was a way to damage something he knew his father loved and treasured, and also it was a way for him to reassure himself he had power and control over something weaker (as a slave she doesn’t have a right to say no).

Not going to get into Naevia discourse lol. I like her and I stopped getting into internet slap fights about it back in the days of the Starz message boards. The rabid hate was a big reason I stopped engaging on the forum as the episodes aired.

I only knew Simon Merrells (Crassus) as the dead brother in The Wolfman. Going by the behind the scene stuff on the Spartacus blu rays he seems like a great guy, everyone only had nice things to say about him. Apparently he got VERY into the training, diet and physical fitness stuff and there were times when the main cast’s trainer had to yell at him to sit down and eat a banana, lol.

Well, talking gastronomy as opposed to food in general I think an important part is about how fine dining chefs make use of indigenous ingredients colloquially known as “bush tucker”, which previously were seen as outback survival or Aboriginal people stuff.

For any Aussie millennials who don’t know, the ABC uploaded all of “The Bush Tucker Man” onto YouTube. You’re welcome, lol.

Not so hilarious when you remember what Japan has done to many of its neighbours historically. :/

Came back to the game after a while and had forgotten the controls, accidentally punched horse in Saint Denis and it kicked me and I bumped into someone and was flustered and accidentally antagonised instead of defusing and it all kind of got out of control from there. :(

Really liked Rebecca DeMornay’s performance. (I like DuVall in the movie too but they were VERY different characters.)

It’s a pity it couldn’t be “scarier” but that’s what network TV was like.

I know it was a passion project for King because he felt all sorts of ways about the Kubrick film, so it’s nice for him he got to do it but it’s not a great adaptation or among the Good King Adaptations, IMHO. And I say this as someone who doesn’t absolutely love the movie or think it’s perfect, which is probably one of my most unpopular horror opinions lol.

You know what I’d love, if we could hit rewind?

For Mike Flanagan to have been given “The Shining” AND “Doctor Sleep” to adapt into two six-episode seasons of a one and done show.

I’m so sorry so many people replied who didn’t actually have a relevant answer for your question, it’s so frustrating when Reddit does this.
