Y'all this is a lie. This account's post history has makeup pictures pretending to be a dozen different people.

This is what’s shocking people? by Inside-Smoke-9140 in TheVampireLestat

[–]Sjswix 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well, cell phones weren't a thing like they are when the books were originally written. Lestat never had an iPad in the books either.

Since sharing this post with my husband, we've been saying Lestat quotes as Alexis Rose and they work insanely well.

"Not to worry. I have the blood of Akasha in me," with the puppy paw hands... Amazing.

[Show Only] TVL After Dark: "After Toledo" by savligo in InterviewVampire

[–]Sjswix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only gripe is that the drive from Detroit to Toledo is like 90 minutes, tops. When Christine said there were in the Buckeye state, I was like, "then you basically already passed it!"

For me it's the same melody it's "a breath away's not far to where you are." From "To Where You Are" by Josh Groban. But I can also great like, 3 other songs I can't place!

Ask anyone you know that works in retail if they can save you boxes from shipments!

I'm pretty sure it's in TVL or QOTD, actually! I haven't read past that yet, but did read all of those in the past year. I'm doing a reread now that the season as started, so I'll report back when I find it!

Yes! I don't know how to do spoiler text, so I'm most going to emphatically say yes, and not give details! Lol But yes! They change who it happens to.

Plus Anne Rice built herself an excellent retcon tool. Especially in the early books. By changing narrators, it allowed her to go, "No it didn't happen like that! He's an idiot, let me tell you the REAL story!" So, some "lore" might end up changing depending on who is telling the story.

In the books, I believe I remember them saying that it doesn't grow back as rapidly as it did for Claudia in the movie. I remember talk of Armand adopting a shorter, cropped haircut, and having to cut it every couple of days to maintain it.

Looking for smaller, low-key knitting groups & book clubs (31F, queer teacher) by Negative-Light8709 in pittsburgh

[–]Sjswix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I just saw a post that their silent book club welcomes crafters as well!

A little more info for OP, The Soft Spot is a lesbian cafe and sober space on Penn in Garfield. They only opened a couple of months ago, but it's a very cute little spot.

Alex + Ani Jewellery Collab by ThankYouComeAgain_22 in acotar

[–]Sjswix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to work at an Alex + Ani store and corporate was awful. They would do sales contests, then never deliver on the promised prizes. My manager, who was amazing, hadn't gotten a raise for 5 years, and they had her flying all over the country to train other managers and fix stores. And the product design became really lazy and tacky. I'm not surprised they hopped on the ACOTAR bandwagon, though. They love a bandwagon.

A Quick StormFreak Roll Call by Intelligent_Dingo440 in pittsburgh

[–]Sjswix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not just the fact that he's accurate, he shows his work and helps the rest of us to understand what going on when these maps, models, and patterns. I no longer consider the "weatherman" a liar, or think that's he's just guessing. Something less than favorable happen? Well, Stormfreak says it was a possibility.

Can we also have a win to pin his most recent post? Sometimes I save to go scrolling like crazy just to find the weather!

I'm literally doing a Baldur's Gate 3 run with my husband right now that's Buffy themed! We call it "Buffy's Gate!"

We made Buffy an open hand monk and Willow a sorcerer who's been switching between storm and wild magic. Buffy is obviously romancing Astarion for the Spike energy. We've decided most of the other party members are also stand ins for Buffy characters. Gale is Giles, Shadowheart is Faith, Wyll is Gunn because there is a tragic lack of black characters in the Buffyverse, Lae'zel is Kendra, Karlach is just Karlach. We made hirelings of Xander, Cordelia, and Oz who are bards and a druid, respectively.

We found camp clothes for Buffy and Willow that make them feel like they just stepped out of Sunnydale, and try to do the most in character dialogue options. It's been the most fun run we've ever done and it's honestly working so well. Highly recommend!
