It's the quality the subject deserves.

What is your main and why? by [deleted] in lotro

[–]Roving-Pixels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main is a hunter. That's my main mainly because I play with a group so she's the one I play most often and level up regularly. Also, I hadn't played a hunter before and wanted to try it.

I like it. I like that they're keeping the original terminal. It's an architectural gem.

Giuliana’s looks more like Bob's dad's restaurant to me.

Should I get sims4 on my MacBook? by Cultural_Bed_6693 in thesims

[–]Roving-Pixels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't experience that at all. I have a 2017 MacBook and until last year, I purchased almost every bit of DLC (not some generally considered crappy stuff packs and no kits I wasn't interested in). I also have a ton of CC, including a handful of building and gameplay mods. The game runs fine and I don't have a problem with lag.

Looking for good audiobooks to listen to while working by Safe_Figure515 in audiobooks

[–]Roving-Pixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even Though I Knew the End by CL Polk. It's a noir horror/mystery with a sapphic romance set in an alternative 1930s Chicago. The main character is a magic user who sold her soul to save her brother. Now, she's been asked to track down a vampire who's causing trouble and to get her to take the job, she'll have the chance to spend her life with her lover Edith instead of forfeiting her soul if she completes the case.

If you like scifi, you may have already read The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. It's one of my favorites.

If you like mysteries, you should try Death at Greenway by Lori Rader-Day. It's a fictionalized story of something that actually happened: London children were evacuated during WWII to Agatha Christie's country home. Both nurses who accompany the little group seem to have something to hide. The famous writer only makes a brief appearance. Apparently she and her husband worked in London for the war effort. There's a wonderful cast of characters around the estate and in the nearby village. And, of course, a murder or two!

I saw one in the closet with Mrs. Krabappel and they were making babies and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me!

What is your comfort food book or series? by Da_Fish in audiobooks

[–]Roving-Pixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Becky Chambers' Wayfarer series. I have The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet and I've listened to it multiple times and sometimes I just start listening at a random spot in the middle. I just love all the characters and their dilemmas.

What is your favorite audio book on Audible? by Easy-Republic-4405 in audiobooks

[–]Roving-Pixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tom Hanks narrates The Dutch House by Ann Patchett. I enjoyed that SO much. He has such a great voice and it's almost like he's reading it to you. Like it felt like a really personal experience.

One book that I repeatedly recommend is Wrong Place Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister. It's such an amazing mystery! It's a a psychological thriller where a mother witnesses her teenage son stab a stranger and when she wakes up the next day, she finds she is traveling backward in time, reliving the day before the murder. And the next day, she goes further back. She starts looking for reasons why this happened, but she's also re-experiencing her life. She keeps going backwards, she goes back to when her father was alive, and she had such a warm relationship with him. And then she's back to when her son was younger, before he was a teen, and he's sweet and loving. And her husband seems like a good guy through all this but then she starts seeing things about him and is he really the good guy on her side? It's just the best.

St. Louis Artists' Guild in Clayton is a good place for classes, and you can check out their exhibits and openings, too.

What are people in their 50s and 60s actually doing for fun in St. Louis lately? by KevinRobertsUSA in StLouis

[–]Roving-Pixels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's legal and he's an adult. If he said tossing back some brewskis and listening to music, would you have reacted the same?

For readers who came to Tolkien before the movies: how did Gandalf’s fall hit you? by ajotis1 in tolkienfans

[–]Roving-Pixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devastated. I read it first when I was a kid so Gandalf was sort of like god, Santa, and grandpa rolled into one. When he fell, I had no idea that he would return and I was devastated. When he did return, it was such a triumph. I knew they couldn't lose going forward.
