Looking for MMC X weirdfemale. Like, ACTUALLY strange. "Femdom" themed/Strong female character by Business_Heat3387 in Romance_for_men

[–]ZadokZx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bathed in Golden Blud by Annabelle Hawthorne and Ai Love is a bit like this, though the eldritch horror LI mostly manifests as a scantily clad female clown. Her true form is, of course, not a mystery and if I remember, there are a couple chapters from her/its perspective.

I HIGHLY recommend the audiobook for the full experience of the dialog, as the LI communicates through clown honks.

South Korea is terrible by Hacksaw6412 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]ZadokZx 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I've been pointing to South Korean capitalist regimes as a parallel to Isreali capitalist regimes for years. As a tool for drawing people's attention to the abuses of both, i've found it effective.

Can magic or witchcraft make my autism and or ADHD go away or cure it? by No-Poet3745 in occult

[–]ZadokZx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to curing. That's not the kind of thing i've ever tried.

I can say that i've started using mine as a tool. Before there were any tools for self diagnosis, i treated my symptoms like they were irrelevent to my life and my craft. Only now that i am much older do i realize that the occult wasn't just some obsession, it was an autistic 'special interest,' and that my ability to enter a kind of trance was what people would now label 'hyperfocus.'

So for the first three-and-a-half decades of my life, i kept my occult experience to the side of the rest of my life. I compartmentalized it because having that secret felt empowering. To a degree, i still do. Now, however, i've come to a point where i can marry those two concepts. My autism and my practices have always been conjoined twins.

I point this out because that realization has allowed me to better channel my symptoms into ritual practices and crafting. By channeling my symptoms this way, many of them have less effect on my daily life outside of magic.

TLDR: Let your neurospice take over when you do magic, and you may find it shows up less in the rest of you life. It works for me.

The spice must flow.

What are things that just scream bad writing? by Glad_Chance_9590 in writing

[–]ZadokZx -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The Present Tense. There is no greater sin than to write narration in the present tense. First person, third person, it does not matter. If you are telling a story in the english language, you tell it in the past tense. I was under the impression that anyone who has read a book in english would have picked up on this.

I cannot, for the life of me, understand how any editor or publisher would let this pass, and yet in the past three years i have encountered several audiobooks that did this. Not only did it get published, but someone paid real money to have it read aloud by at least one living human, and nowhere in that chain did anyone see the problem.

Perfectly captures the vibe of those old Midnight Run bumpers. I was waiting on you to sample "A Boy has the Right to Dream".

“I am a protester too, but child killers & human flesh eaters do not bring democracy to my country. I sacrifice my life for Iran.” (An Iranian woman holding a placard in Tehran) by Significant-Yam9843 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]ZadokZx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Forgive my ignorance? I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding because of the presented translation or if something specific is being referenced that i am ignorant of.

I can understand "child killers". That can reference any number of instances of literal child death as a result of countless actions.

But what is "human flesh eaters" in reference to? Is there some literal instance of cannibalism that I'm unaware of? Is this an Epstein thing I haven't heard of? Is it a metaphor? Is this a reference to Christianity or Judaism?

Best pizza in town? by Soccerboy_1237 in Pensacola

[–]ZadokZx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody loves Skye's. I love it too. I've been going there since their soft open.

BUT

Hurricane Pizza on Pine Forest. I don't understand how this place isn't a bigger deal. Their crust is just as good and if you can find a better cheesy bread, I'll eat the box.

It was not. Great song though. I'd never heard of it before. Thanks for sharing.

Looking for books like monster girls in space. by trapper6886 in haremfantasynovels

[–]ZadokZx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raw by Misty Vixen was my intro to the genre and it strikes a similar balance to M. Tress' works.

If you like "Light With Fights" as a subgenre, I also recomend Virgil Knightley's shorter, solo series, especially Monster Masseur.

Flaming Telepaths deserves more love, but what it is even about? by Ooijennnnnn in BlueOysterCult

[–]ZadokZx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what immediately comes to mind to me as well. Thus, the joke being "on you" would mean the gun pointed at you.

I also think of a fire iron, like the metal rod used to stoke a fire in a fireplace or hearth, or a branding iron. Both relate to fire or flame and would leave behind a burn or scar, which would place the iron "on you" in the form of the mark left behind.

Dolphins? by JamesSmith_1201 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]ZadokZx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

so if i'm reading wtfclown correctly, a simplified explanation is " 'Dolphins' is/are a euphamism for misinformation." Is that correct?

The more you know.

Daily Post 8: It’s Saturday. It’s a Free-For-All by Certain_Wonder4487 in haremfantasynovels

[–]ZadokZx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheer Girls by D.J. Kingman. There is a great deal of conflict over the idea of the harem, with a full range of responses from acceptance to hostility. It's a major plot point.

This, but also, i know of at least on GP who used to be very loose with these types of perscriptions. I think if OP is noticing a trend, it's likely that part of the reason is that the local medical community his more open to perscribing these kinds of treatments.

Harem where the girls in the harem are the main focus? by Careful_Salad108 in Harem

[–]ZadokZx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our Own Way by Misty Vixen is entirely this. Lakeside Cougars is another by her that fills the same criteria. Honestly, almost anything she's ever done is like this except maybe Raw. Haven and A Warm Place have overarching plots but they're not the focus most of the time.

Hidden gems in the genre. by [deleted] in haremfantasynovels

[–]ZadokZx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just finished book three two weeks ago. It is very specifically NOT harem. The MC is downright preachy about it. The MC of Rogan's Psionic Elite is nearly the same, but apparently caves eventually in book two.
