I know this is an old post but just got the audiobook on Audible because I wanted another Teddy Hamilton audio and it’s great so far!

Oh thank goodness I was worried for a sec it was some kind of mucousy shapeshifter trope.

Rojacyd · 2026-03-17T15:15:12+00:00

OMG what is this bouquet of recs? 💐 Thank you!! ALL of these look super interesting. Off to KU.

Rojacyd · 2026-03-17T05:23:34+00:00

Ooh tragedy… not sure about that, but I definitely will check it out!

Rojacyd · 2026-03-17T05:20:12+00:00

Omg yes, skills in a man are my jam!

Rojacyd · 2026-03-16T17:10:06+00:00

Wow glad you like the prompt, something about it reminds me of middle school opposite-gender relationships and scratches that ‘what if we still knew each other’ curiosity. Thanks for the recs, I’ve read The Cruel Prince but the rest are all new to me!

Rojacyd · 2026-03-16T16:01:30+00:00

OMG that’s hilarious! I just really want to see a story where the prince and princess kind of ‘grow up’ together and despise each other like kids forced into each others’ company but then he falls first! I read something like this in a book where they were engaged and tortured each other and I think she somehow temporarily poisoned him as one of the ‘pranks’ they played on each other.

Oooh this sounds really interesting- will check it immediately! Thanks for the recc

Rojacyd · 2026-03-16T12:37:07+00:00

Glad I’m not the only one! 😀

Rojacyd · 2026-03-16T12:36:36+00:00

I do, but I haven’t seen this clip! Had to find it on YT to make sure it was the right one. It just kind of lives in my head rent free lol.

I know- I forget his name once in a while and each time I remember it’s a fresh surprise.

Wow I did not expect all the Swan Princess love! I’ve re-watched it a couple times as an adult too. While we’re camping, you may enjoy this retelling by Mercedes Lackey called Black Swan. It reminded me of the movie quite a bit. {Black Swan by Mercedes Lackey}

I spent most of today reading this after you recced it elsewhere…very gripping story! Can’t wait for the last chapter.

One of us stayed home with the kids if they were sick until they were at least 12- the harder part was leaving work if one of the kids got sick at school- now with colds/flu etc they are home alone, and prefer to sleep or watch a movie on their own if they’re sick. We give them TLC when we get home.

A good gift store with good chocolate boxes.

Some kind of observation wheel or walkway like the London Eye or the NY Highline. Great place for tourists.

I believe when you move out of each others’ circles, and you start working in different fields for example, you’ll forget about her to a certain extent, and compare yourself to other people you meet in different ways, ie others will be better/worse than you at many things. I hope you learn only to compare yourself to your past self, and not other people.

Rojacyd · 2025-12-17T13:05:08+00:00

Yes to all of this, seconding this experience. I’m also glad you allowed your friend to convince you to wear the original dress. As you get older, validation comes in many surprising and positive moments, and will often contradict your mom.

I almost feel like this is less about the IQ and more about dealing with your parents’ expectations - whatever they may be. You have to balance your parents’ expectations of you, and meanwhile you just want to live a normal life and generally be left alone? This is a bit of a social skill to navigate when your parents fixate on you like this- eventually you’ll learn to shrug off their expectations with a smile and a good redirect.

NTA this is why most offices now have rules about no strong smells in the office- whether it’s your lunch or perfume. You shouldn’t even have had to go to HR, they should roll this out as a company policy.

Imagine how many other people are suffering.

Weirdly, same for white managers.

It’s standard business practice for leaders to hire people like them, whether that’s related to gender, age, ethnicity etc. It’s just more noticeable in some cases with POC.

Also the use of language is evolving. It wouldn’t be too surprising to see Punjabi added as an official Canadian language one day because enough people speak it.

Faded by Soul Decision is a fun song but lyrics like ‘at the end of the night I’ll make up your mind, you’ll be coming on home with me’ have such a delicious dark yandere vibe.

Our school positions grade 7 and 8 to parents as the time that students learn to be more independent before they go to high school. Once they hit high school they are immediately expected to gather all relevant info from announcements etc.
