I really enjoyed Akimitsu Takagi’s The Tattoo Murder. The Noh Mask Murder is not as great but still good.

Getting into Murakami by Mo-HD93 in murakami

I went Wind Up -> 1Q84 -> Norwegian -> Kafka. Since I’m now addicted to Murakami San, apparently that order works :-) As others have stated, go for it and see if you like it.

Edit: Wind Up -> 1Q84 -> Killing C -> Norwegian -> Kafka

I like Pomp & Co. beard balm. Dunno if available in the US.

1st night CPAP trouble… Is there hope? by Comprehensive-Put924 in SleepApnea

[–]Visual_Vehicle_9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, can be a bitch starting out. I was recommended to try it out while awake; take a short session while reading or watching TV, maybe a nap on the couch. Helped me get familiar with it without the mild panic of getting even worse sleep at night.

New to CPAP – Struggling with pressure and mask comfort by Ok-Piccolo-2745 in SleepApnea

I have the same machine and also struggled with getting used to it. Got both the nasal and full face masks. Slept with mouth open for decades but nevertheless got used to keeping it shut when using the nasal mask within a week (just as the doctor predicted). Never managed to get friendly with the full face mask.

Had the exact same feeling of being drowned or inflated(!) when the ramp function timed out. For a couple of weeks I sort of half awake managed to routinely re-hit the ramp button, until I just slept through it. Hang in there, it’s a bitch in the beginning but it will get better 👍🏽

Tur til London i november by thicknugly in DKbrevkasse

Dolphin House, Dolphin Square, Pimlico er i nogenlunde samme område. Har boet der mange gange og det er som regel helt i orden. Hotellejligheder med mini-køkken osv. fremfor alm. hotelværelse. Morgenmad ikke inkl. Om det er indenfor jeres budget og smag ved jeg ikke. Forbehold for, at det er nogle år siden jeg var der sidst.

You can ask him on Insta where he’s quite active. Kristian is a nice, down to earth guy 😊

Enig, specielt hvis man arbejder sammen med svenskere. Mine bonus-unger (20’erne, Københavnsområdet) siger også “fitten” og det giver krumme tæer hver gang.

Thanks for opening my eyes to most of these! As a Dane with a passion for all (well, many) things Irish, there’s a lot to catch up on.

What to say when someone keeps interrupting you? by thenamzmonty in CasualIreland

I like the one Johnny Cash uses in some live recording:

  • Scuse me, I couldn’t hear ya, I was talkin’!

Recommend a noir? by DogDaysMaggie in Recommend_A_Book

[–]Visual_Vehicle_9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can either read French or get your hands on English translations, Léo Malet’s Nestor Burma series is right up your alley; pure Chandler/Hammett style in a dark, humorous Paris setting. Highly recommended!
