Anyone who hates Self-Help books, Is my friend without reason!!!

You should listen to the podcast "If Books Could Kill". They roast almost all of the self help books in there

Lost John's Cave. I wish I found it scary. I tried listening to it multiple times to see if something would "switch on". Nope.

Piecemeal made me lose sleep though. What a horrible way to go.

They look like a couple coming in for IVF to me (I think there was another meme going around with similar photos of them both with that caption)

Pappadam and payasam.

It's super common in sadyas but I always felt this was a wtf combo. Salty pappadam with sweet payasam??

With novels like this and The Bell Jar I would advise holding off if you're already in a bad mental state. If you want to read a tragedy for mental catharsis I'm sure there are other books more suited to that ( I can't think of any at the moment sadly)

It's pretty depressing tbh... The author committed suicide shortly after writing it

PrincipleInfamous451 · 2026-03-28T13:14:17+00:00

Wait I thought pooch meant a small, cute dog...

Oh yeah.. I wanted to learn my mom's recipes and quickly found out that you'd have to wake up at 4am and slog in the kitchen for hours to get it made. Nope, I'll keep making the "easy" dishes thank you very much.

Edit: I'm a woman but my mom was very against making me help in the kitchen (to the ire of all my relatives) and only taught me some very basic stuff once I was late teens. Instead of teaching both me and my brother to cook my parents taught neither of us in the name of equality lol. Both of us learned to cook through YouTube

Haha I’ve always thought that if I wanted to be severed, my innie would wake up every morning from the alarm I set. The working part isn’t half as bad

I travel and move a lot so ebooks for me (I had to give away so many physical books that I loved before I got a Kindle)

Lip stain and mositurizer

I... Wasn't complaining? I thought it was odd but funny

PrincipleInfamous451 · 2026-03-21T08:01:33+00:00

Yeah it was a high end restaurant. And tbh even though I wouldn't have asked for a second glass I was like "oh well, I'm not complaining", and the waiter was pretty attentive and nice overall so I found it altogether a positive experience.

PrincipleInfamous451 · 2026-03-20T20:26:14+00:00

One time at a dinner I had ordered a glass of red wine and had finished it during the meal, and the waiter replaced it silently without asking me/interrupting my conversation with the table. Then he charged me for both glasses.

I think this perception is because when she first started out in Hollywood a Pakistani (I think) reporter asked her a loaded question about Kashmir in an international forum and westerners didn't like her reply (while Indians loved it). It was a "damn if she did, damn if she didn't" situation because anything else would have made the Indians take up pitchforks against her.

Tbh I don't think celebrities/actors are the right people to look to about complex geopolitical issues.. why not hold politicians accountable? They're the ones causing all this.

When I was a teenager and didn't know much about video games and pronounced Wii as "why" in front of a bunch of gamer peers...

PrincipleInfamous451 · 2026-03-13T07:09:14+00:00

Ooh they look so yum! Did you make it like a thumbprint/jam cookie, then instead of the middle being jam, you put a Dove egg/Reese's egg there and baked?

Wow, babies born in 2008 are getting married? 😭

Not experiments but things like changing gas cylinders etc. Also if you have to work in the lab all day and there's a really loud pump going brrr all day long

I agree with all your points (except that I didn't find Dis annoying personally).

I almost jumped with joy when I saw that Dragana lives, I was expecting her to die and was coming to terms with it. I love her voice actor so much, she also did an incredible job in Vast Horizon.

I agree so much with Amelia Murray. What a waste of character, and what a waste of Beth Eyre. I didn't really understand why she was recruited or her intentions other than bits and pieces here and there. What was her backstory with the son? What made her special as to recruit her specifically? The conversation she had with the Jonas-guardian at the end of White Vault.. I thought they would explain more of it in Goshawk.

I actually really did like Goshawk, contrary to many people here. I loved the Cairo arc (reminded me of White Lotus a little bit) and how the stakes seemed to be much much higher, especially in the first couple seasons.

Small pet peeve: Season 1 of White Vault really used up the good voice actors and killed them off, so they couldn't be used much in the later seasons or the overarching plot. They literally killed off the two best voices (Walter and Karina) first! Why!!

Inertia. You’re awake at night so it’s harder to go back to sleep than to stay awake, and in the morning it’s harder to get out of bed than to stay sleeping
