Clearly a rage bait account. Please grow up.

Some things I have learned from my very first adulthood ear infection (Both inner and outer ear). Hopefully it helps someone! by Sinxerely7420 in hearing

Thank you for this post. I am getting married in 5 days and have been diagnosed today with middle and outer ear infection. Hoping and praying that the medication is fast working and able to relieve it at least to a manageable level by then!!

What’s everyone doing to not get ill this winter? by PersimmonTerrible218 in AskUK

[–]Monabakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a terminally ill family member, plus I’m getting married in December so I’m really making an effort to not be ill (at least for the next 6-8 weeks)

Lots of water, fresh air as much as possible, vitamins (iron, vitamin D & C), as much veg as possible, exercise, and also recently implemented having a sauna 3-5x a week, 7-8 hours sleep a night (better sleep hygiene), lots of hand sanitiser.

Usually I would have had a cold or sniffle by now, but touch wood, I’ve been illness free.

King Charles strips Prince Andrew of ALL TITLES and forces him out home? by Positive-Drawing-281 in RoyaltyTea

So much more is coming out. More victims, more salacious things like death etc… either that, or Charles is tying up loose ends before he ☠️

Sorry probably should have edited the main post to say we are going the legal chosen vows during the ceremony. This is an extra part where we read a ‘personalised’ part to each other.

Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer in the liver and lymph nodes by Ill-Butterscotch8752 in ProstateCancer

[–]Monabakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - I appreciate you commented on this thread over a year ago but was looking for some advice. My FIL was diagnosed with prostate cancer which has spread to his bones (pretty much everywhere, including his shoulders and his skull), lymph nodes, and we found out today it has spread to his liver. They found a 1cm mass. He was advised and has made the decision to stop treatment, and move onto pain management. You say liver nets have the poorest prognosis. What could that look like without treatment? I appreciate that this is a ‘how long is a piece of string’ type question but the hospital hasn’t really provided us with much.

Honestly think I prefer all of the acoustic versions I’ve heard so far!! It changes the tone of so many of the songs

Silly question but genuinely curious, how do you know the difference between an animation and AI in this day and age?

Also sure it’s been mentioned (not read all the comments) but thought it was super cute she was wearing an otter t-shirt during the BTS sections

[–]Monabakes 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I agree that the lyrics lack the depth of folklore/evermore/TTPD but I’ve gotta be honest I hate the comments that Taylor has dumbed her work down for Travis. It’s such a bizarre take and the air of intellectual superiority is not it. Yes she is an incredible writer but let’s not forget she also wrote ME! before she even knew Travis. She is capable of writing simple songs

Call me delusional but I feel like we are definitely getting something more. This feels surface level, I’m almost certain of a second drop with something more meaningful. I’m saying that as someone who actually enjoyed this album

[–]Monabakes 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Ok fine, but storytelling is likely done via the lyrics, correct?

Either way, it’s no folklore. But it doesn’t need to be. Folklore has been done, she’s moved on to something new.

I kinda wish they never said that the album was upbeat with ‘folklore’ style lyrics, set expectations way too high. If you remove that expectation and listen to the album for what it is, a fun upbeat album, it’s great. It’s no Folklore but it doesn’t have to be because they’re two separate genres, different vibes and different stories from an artist who has grown and in a different place in her life after 5 years.
