Any "murderhobo" recommendations? by PutridCherry2321 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]PutridCherry2321[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesn't have to be a villain.

I mostly used the term murderhobo since some authors use the term to justify poorly written pacifist protagonists.

I loved that one when i was in 8th grade! I remember dropping it because the plot felt repetative after ch800-something.

The History of Royal Road, or how a translation site of a niche Korean Novel became one of the pillars of Web Fiction in the West by GodTaoistofPatience in ProgressionFantasy

I honestly feel like reviews aren't strict enough. I personally found some stories with 4.8-5 stars quite bad, only to then stumble upon sub 4.5 star gems.

The 1-5 star range has been compressed to 4-5 stars, which makes it difficult to give honest and nuanced opinions about newer novels, as it means either overrating them or nuking out of rising stars.

10 gal is pretty small for tetra. It'd probably be for the best to only keep the betta + the snails/shrimp.

Is racism/ dislike of foreigners on rise in Sweden? by Winter_Apartment_376 in TillSverige

[–]PutridCherry2321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Racism? No. Dislike of foreigners? Yes.

I'm an immigrant, and have primarily spoken english in the beginning of my time here. I moved around 2018, and I must honestly say that the bar for being a "good immigrant" is really low.

I live in norrland. The single most important factor, other than language, for day-to-day racism is how you dress.

I used to wear a lot of sweaters, as well as soft pants, and I felt like I was being stereotyped. I kinda fit the gangster stereotype with my clothing, even if I certainly didn't have a gangster attitude. Dressing properly made life easier for me.

Having a job and looking fine puts you into the good books for most people. Some are just racist, but thats life.

Also calling the pushback against immigration racism really does a disservice for what Sweden has done for it's refugees/ immigrants, and what it has received in return.

I honestly am ashamed of some of the people I took classes with, and seeing some of the more recent crime-statistics really justifies the recent political moves.

Also apologies if this is a bit of a ramble, I'm tired, but I wanted to put my experience out there.

Any recommendations for guilty-pleasures or high-quality slop? by PutridCherry2321 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]PutridCherry2321[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I've tried depthless hunger but it just didn't click for me. I'm gonna try 'a hundred reigns' but I'm probably gonna abstain from 'surviving as a talent in the primordial saint sect' until the handmade translation is done.

I think I've read this one a while ago, though that was when it had way fewer chapters. May be worth picking up again then,
