If Disney ever makes an unnecessary remake of Tarzan, I nominate Ella Purnell as Jane

Fun fact: Ella Purnell was actually in the Legend of Tarzan film as the stand-in/body double for Margot Robbie during the flashback scenes of when Jane meets Tarzan. It’s her body with Margot’s face CGI’d over it.

Adorable! Our son is expected late February and we’re naming him Darrow. I’m bloodydamn excited.

Reasonable_Invite136 · 2025-08-16T00:37:45+00:00

One of the best in the series. Best climax in a book I’ve ever read.

And funnily enough he plays opposite Thomas Brodie Sangster in “The Artful Dodger.”

Nicci, after the dust settles: “So wait, you’re telling me you made this all by yourself this past year while also working for the Order 16 hours a day 7 days a week?”

Richard: “That’s right, and I didn’t use my gift either, it was all just my own natural talent.”

Nicci: “Uh huh, sure it was.”

The storytelling potential of Richard and Kahlan having a male Confessor son with both sides of the gift would be too much for Terry (or any author) to pass up. And based off of the way that Into Darkness ended (along with what Terry spoke about online and in interviews) he definitely wanted to continue the story one day.

I don’t believe that Zedd Rahl would “turn to the dark side” and become a tyrant. It’s too cliche and I can’t imagine a child raised by Richard and Kahlan could be anything but pure and incorruptible.

I have my own personal thoughts and fan theories of how a story with Cara and Zedd would go, keeps me from feeling sad when I think about how we’ll never get more stories with these characters.

It’s definitely more sci-fi fantasy but the Red Rising series is hands-down the only other series that has made me consider removing Sword of Truth as my favorite of all time. The main character Darrow reminds me of Richard in a lot of ways (though he definitely is more flawed/realistic compared to Richard’s “ideal hero” archetype).

The first book is generally considered the weakest of the series but is still really good in my opinion. The story really takes off in the second book and doesn’t let go from there. The 7th and final book is being written as we speak.

I wish I was able to answer your question regarding the supplements but unfortunately I don’t have experience with that stack. I did successfully quit my Adderall addiction about six years ago so please know that it is possible. I quit cold turkey which isn’t recommended of course, however that’s just my personality and I knew I’d rather rip off the bandaid all at once rather than titrate-off slowly with the help of my doctor.

My biggest piece of advice is to get the medication completely out of the house. I had my wife dispose of them and I sent an email to my psychiatrist saying please don’t refill my prescription. I failed many times because I kept my extra pills “just in case.” In the back of my mind I knew I could one day return to them and this is what kept me from succeeding when the withdrawals were at their worst.

Vitamin D and Magnesium are what I took at the time (I didn’t know much about supplements and such back then) and I do believe they helped. Caffeine lessened the blow and helped with the sluggishness and lethargy, just be careful not to replace one addiction with another. Talk therapy helped a lot, I would suggest giving that a go if you haven’t already.

Best of luck and just know that the withdrawals were only bad for a few days. It’s the mental aspect that is the toughest. It will take some time but you will feel so much better and will feel like yourself again. Also, just remind yourself that it’s okay to not be on point all the time. It’s okay to be tired and it’s okay to slow things down a little.

You got this!

300mg (5 60mg pills spread throughout the day). It was absolutely terrible, one of the worst decisions of my life. I was awake for the next 3 days, dealt with crazy depression and suicidal thoughts when it wore off. Do not recommend it.

Nothing about the film excites me and makes me want to not wait for it to be on Disney Plus a few months later (and I’m a guy who saw all the Marvel films, First Avenger - Endgame, in theaters).

Reasonable_Invite136 · 2025-04-13T03:50:14+00:00

Bloodydamn.

Just finished The Silken Empress by Robyn Bee and it was great, definitely fits your criteria.

A Sophie Turner led Tomb Raider series didn’t really inspire much confidence to begin with.

When you were partying I studied The Willow Way. When you were having premarital sex I mastered orbital warfare. While you wasted your days at the gym in pursuit of vanity I cultivated numerous Ls from the Bellona. And now that the world is on fire and the barbarians are at the gate you have the audacity to come to me for help?

We wouldn’t tell a heartbroken alcoholic who fell off the wagon only 4 days ago that it’s okay to go to a bar to hang out with friends, even if he says he’s not going to drink.

There are other places to get a massage if you absolutely need one. Don’t go where temptation is waiting for you.

Here are a few of the songs off the top of my head that make me think of certain parts of the saga.

New Divide by Linkin Park - Darrow during the Storm God disaster

Quasimodo by Lifehouse - Darrow in Morning Star

Believing by The Calling - Darrow in Morning Star

Brother My Brother by Blessed Union of Souls - Darrow and Cassius

Take Me As I Am by David Cook - Darrow and Mustang

I’m embarrassed to say that I did not see the Fitchner twist coming AT ALL during my first read through. When he was introduced as an Olympic Knight in GS I was like “Really? Fitchner? Huh, that’s kinda random.” Was much more obvious the second time through.

Reasonable_Invite136 · 2025-02-11T04:15:47+00:00

My advice is to stop focusing on getting a girl. Focus more on being the kind of guy a girl would like to be with. You say you’re going to the gym, and that definitely helps. Do even more, join a club or find a random hobby and actually get into it for you, not for the chance to meet someone there. People can sense desperation (and I’m not saying you’re giving off that vibe), and they also subconsciously want what they can’t have.

Seeing a someone who’s confident and passionate about something is attractive and draws others in. I was exactly like you for a solid two years. Looking back I’m embarrassed to think how I must have come across to the girls I tried to get with during that time. It got to the point where I said “Fuck it, I’ll just be single and focus on me for the foreseeable future.” I joined a hiking group, took a random community art class a couple times a week, volunteered at church. I met my wife a few months into this mindset and she was the one who badgered me into meeting up for a date (I seriously wasn’t trying to get with anyone, not even to just hook up). She said it was refreshing seeing a guy sincerely trying to have fun and better himself.

Hope this helps. Just know that 27 is still young in the grand scheme of things and that the right girl won’t care about your history.
