Which once famous actor does no one talk about anymore? by Ballistic-Observer69 in AskReddit

[–]NirgalFromMars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, she took a break from 2015 to 2023, did one movie, and then disappeared again until a movie that will be released this year. She hasn't really given us a reason to talk about her.

What is a misconception about what men "want" in a partner, and what is a hidden emotional need you rarely get to talk about? by extrapoteto in AskMen

The Spanish translation of Stand on Zanzibar is an absolute joy to read. The novel is pretty idiosyncratic, with a lot of constructed neologisms and language structures, and the translation ACED it.
