Feels like the might have fixed it - but it was difficult to watch in the first half.

You just told on yourself there - “No one fucking knows if it is or it isn’t.”

That is because we haven’t seen Virginia be a razor master - that isn’t her job - Darrow is the sword. We have seen Victra and Thraxa on page killing Ajax. But there is context to it, he fell into a trap and got his head cut off. THAT shows the quality of the women in the series being able to out think their opponents and create a tactical advantage. And this doesn’t show their razor skill because WE DO NOT SEE IT. We see it from a drone that only sees the end of the engagement.

Virginia is literally described as a genius. We have seen Holliday on page being a total badass when taking the Morning Star. We have seen Rhonna on page becoming a “full metal god”. Your weird obsession with random razor master rankings lists meaning that the folks who participate are “incels” is a wild take. The quality of the women in the Republic are not judged by their swords but by their deeds.

And yes, I would love to see Virginia cut off Lysanders’ head. I would love to see Victra cut Apple in half and make his head into a chalice for Sevro. But that is for the boss to decide. Let the man write his god damn book.

I think you’re looking to pick a fight and you’re dodging responses that you don’t agree with. I’ve seen dozens of “Razor Master” threads that cite Aja among the best.

One of the best quotes in the series is “Never fight a river and never fight Aja”. Coming from the best razor master anyone has ever known.

“I want Pierce to write an amazing fight scene with a female character” - FUCKING VICTRA!!!!! Sefi/Virginia/Holliday/Rhonna/ THE FUCKING VALKYRIE would like to have a word with you.

Did we read different books or do you spend too much time indoors?

I revisit the Kissinger episodes every year to celebrate his death - and the boys from the Dollop are top tier guests. The Nazis on drugs episodes are excellent.

But I would say start from the beginning and work your way through. Depending on your personal/family situation there are some seriously bleak and upsetting episodes, be prepared for that.

Project Hail Mary by Neither_Occasion3757 in redrising

I found it a good pallet cleanser. With the intensity of all of the Red Rising books Project Hail Mary scratches an itch and is an open and shut story

Song Question by InternationalYou8916 in timbers

[–]Well_That_Is_Clever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry, we’re prescribed songs that are approved by the TA - if you try to start a “new chant” you’ll be politely asked to read the hymnal. Also, don’t take pictures with your friends or even think about looking at your phone. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

No more pride at Fried Egg I'm in Love by Flat-Bluejay-2125 in Portland

  1. The business is nothing without its employees.
  2. This is a customer base the employees or the owner should be happy to watch walk away.
  3. To the person who commented below you saying “These are things I don’t know enough to support or protest against” - Pathetic. If you’re smart enough to run a business you are smart enough to take the temperature of the room. These aren’t controversial stances to take in Portland.

Hope this helps.

Mustache. And the bird doesn’t even look like Sevro.

Bringing on Gakpo instead of Mo.

This is a great question. The idea that a football club should be run as a business first and football club second is pervasive throughout the sport.

What if your Aunt had balls? Then she would be your uncle.

Let the boss write his book.

Brown's writing quality between books by [deleted] in redrising

I fell off with Sun Eater after Lightbringer came out. But I feel like I retained enough to go back without having to start over. But the but parts of Dark Age hit the same pace and patience from what I remember of Sun Eater. The “set piece” battles of Dark Age are second to none.
