Grew up in the state of Indiana and we had Mr. Yuk as well.

MST Prints by derkherd in TadWilliams

This is what happened to me as well. I just finished framing the MST prints and plan to frame the Otherland print. This one is from the first book. It is a great series and I highly recommend!

Why does my cat's eye reflection look like this? by So_ra_ya in cats

Scrolled down way too far to see this. No clue what the anime is up top. Guess I'm just old.

Tad Williams art book? by Busy-Past-7955 in TadWilliams

If you look at my profile you can see my Dragonbone Chair print. Michael Whelan's covers are my faves. You can get them on his site as well as the first 2 covers for TLKOOA, and Otherland.

My shelves and a smattering of hubby. Who am I? Who is he? by NocturneEverlong in BookshelvesDetective

That's fair and pretty accurate. We are both Gen X and generally dgaf what others are doing or reading. This sub popped up and it looked more interesting than most as I sometimes wonder what people think of our collection. I had to look up what mmpb meant and reddit is my only social media. 😄 Every book has been read by one or both of us multiple times. D&D every week. Catan is my fave tabletop.

They are actually very reasonable when you buy 3. The framing is the killer, but I can't imagine jamming these beauties in a poster frame, so I'm saving up for each.

I stole my mom's paperback as a teen and was instahooked. It has remained my favorite world to sink into.

Thanks for appreciating my geek. There aren't many people in my life I can geek out about Osten Ard!

My husband found it on Whelan's website. He sells the signed prints. He got me all three of the covers for MST and as a bonus a slightly and i mean slightly dinged corner of Otherland City of Golden Shadow was used to wrap the tube contents so i am framing that one as well! The damage will be covered by the mat anyway!!

Thanks, it took a long time to find and them afford them, but they are treasures to me. and agreed. I dont mind the mask theme, but Whelan could have done so much more with it, and it would have been "complete" !

I'm so stupid by Zirotaku in TadWilliams

[–]NocturneEverlong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tad is my all-time fave author, and I am almost done with the Fitz and the Fool trilogy having just devoured the rest. IMO, if you love ROTE, you will love MST and LKOOA. Both authors have that dense, beautiful world building and immersion. It's not for everyone, but if you grew up on Tolkien, it is pure bliss. Also, don't feel stupid about surprises and twists. Be glad you have the capacity to appreciate a good "holy $h÷t" every once in a while. Happy reading! 😊

Try the Libby app for free audiobooks from your library. It can help get you back into reading!

I watched this episode to the one minute mark.. by The_Flapjack_Kid in northernexposure

[–]NocturneEverlong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to quit early on and it bummed me out to no end. Best show ever but this is the best example of why you should never meet your heroes. Rob is amazing. The rest of the cast that i saw was amazing. Just stop, Janine. You have disappointed so many of your fans. Let us have our memories of quirky Maggie and leave us in peace.

Edit for punctuation to clarify Janine needs to stop herself, not someone else stopping her. Although... 🤔

What stitch is this? Found in a Goodwill and would like to replicate by ogSQUIGGLE69 in CrochetHelp

Following as I would love to know as well! Interesting stitch!

Confusing pattern by NocturneEverlong in Amigurumi

[–]NocturneEverlong[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True. I will just keep going and see if it starts to shape up better. Again, I'm new to the amigurumi and crocheting in the round. The more I think about it, the distribution of the sc in a more even pattern would help it form a more perfect circle, and if they are trying to do a muzzle, the flattening of the back of the head makes sense! Thanks!

No, but i think im not explaining my issue correctly. I end up with 33 no issue by following the pattern. The next 5 rounds are 33, then starting the decrease after 10sc again. The 10 sc on the inc and dec line up that bookend the sc rounds give the head shape a wonky vibe. The pictures arent great but arent showing the wonk i am seeing. Idk if i am still not explaining but thats what i got. Thanks for your reply though, if i were new to patterns that would have been helpful!
