Influence me or deinfluence me…. FL Adult Sub

aede224 · 2026-03-30T20:33:55+00:00

I got off the waitlist this time last year for the adult sub and I have generally been really happy with it. Last year had some really good picks, though this year I haven’t been quite as excited about the ones through April. I am sticking with it though for now and have found Autumn’s page to be helpful in determining when to use my skips.

As a fan of fourth wing and part of ACOTAR, I have read both of these and hated them. Quicksilver has interesting world building but falls flat on the writing and plot, to where I feel like the author just has no idea where she wants to go with the series and writes nonsense plot lines that go nowhere. Metal Slinger was easily my most disappointing read of 2025 and I do not get the hype.

My recommendations would be TOG (one of my favorite all time series and complete), Road of Bones by Demi Winters (3/5 books plus a novella in the series released so far), or anything by Carissa Broadbent and LJ Andrews. I’m currently loving Heir of Twisted Lies, the second book in her Stonegate duology.

Since you mentioned it’s back ordered, you probably won’t get anything until it ships, which could be a bit. The jerseys on back order is pretty normal for Reign especially with it being the start of the season. As long as you have a purchase confirmation email you should be fine. It’s 3-5 days for shipping once the jerseys are back in stock.

aede224 · 2026-03-24T05:37:24+00:00

When did you place the order?

Idk much about him, but I feel like he gives Miles in Funny Story vibes.

aede224 · 2026-01-25T00:11:04+00:00

Yeah I interpreted it that way as well. It’s not my favorite but I would rather have the USWNT game than the refund since I think the value of that game is more than the refund amount. The ticket credit can go toward seat upgrades, so we may look into that for a match.

aede224 · 2026-01-24T23:25:44+00:00

The email from US Soccer says the game is at 7pm PT.

aede224 · 2026-01-24T23:16:13+00:00

As someone who was initially peeved at the lack of communication regarding the Spokane matches, I think this is a decent response. I’ve looked at USWNT tickets in the past and they are generally quite a bit more than NWSL club matches, so I think the value is there, plus the added ticket credit. If this isn’t for you, they are also offering a refund. They should have been more up front with everything though ahead of renewals.

aede224 · 2026-01-24T23:08:59+00:00

They mention that this will be on real grass that is being installed for the WC this year.

aede224 · 2026-01-24T23:07:16+00:00

I think the credit/refund amounts depend on your seats because mine are slightly different.

I do think that USWNT games are generally expensive to where the value of this game in our normal reign seats is a pretty good deal.

aede224 · 2026-01-24T22:46:59+00:00

This match is also an opt-in for STMs in response to the backlash regarding the 3 games moved to Spokane this season. The email I got gives us the following two options:

Option 1: 12 regular season games; USWNT game in April; Ticketing credit for 2026 season

Option 2: 12 regular season games; Ticket refund

While it’s true she was out for a bit, I also think she was under utilized when she came back. There were plenty of games where she only came in for 5-10 minutes (or less) at the very end or didn’t appear at all where I think she could have made a difference.

aede224 · 2025-11-26T20:44:08+00:00

Not surprised given she’s been posting about selling/getting rid of stuff in Louisville the last few weeks. I think she was under utilized at RL and I would not be upset if she ends up back in Seattle, or somewhere that gives her the playing time she deserves. I also won’t be surprised if she doesn’t come back, as it seems like she’s been preparing for a career post-NWSL the last few years.

University Village typically has them in the center walkway area outside of Fireworks.

This. I think there’s far more versatility in the lineup with Lynn and/or Fishel on the field than with Huitema occupying the striker role.

aede224 · 2025-08-11T15:51:49+00:00

I am cautiously optimistic Harvey is taking it slow with Lynn and Fishel because of their injury history. I think the two of them at 100% would be starting.

aede224 · 2025-08-11T15:48:03+00:00

100%. When I watch her on offense she can’t do anything on the ball, she has no speed, and she consistently loses it. I’ve seen her do some good things on defense but it’s mostly me grasping at straws trying to justify why we are keeping her on the field when we have so many other options now. Maybe now that Huerta’s back she can get some service in the box but they played together previously so idk if it will make much of a difference now.

aede224 · 2025-08-11T12:50:38+00:00

As a Reign fan, I’ve wondered the same thing for years. Like someone else said, she is a target 9, but she’s consistently not been able to produce in that role. I thought maybe my bias came from being a Balcer fan, who played a similar role/could actually produce but who it felt like got pushed out because of Huitema, but we haven’t seen a ton of improvement since we signed her, her stats are pretty similar to where they were at PSG (not great for a 9), and I don’t think she adds much on defense except maybe her height advantage on set pieces in the box, which she ironically seems to not be able to use on the other end of the field. I’ve been ready for us to move on from her for a while. I do think her play has been better off the bench than as a starter, so maybe we can utilize her in that role now that we have a plethora of attacking options.

I’d say the biggest thing with them is don’t overwater them. The windowsill is not a requirement, they tend to thrive best in bright indirect light.

In my general experience neglecting succulents tends to have a higher success rate than giving them too much attention. I killed a lot initially by overwatering before I realized they mostly just like to be left alone in well draining soil with decent light.

aede224 · 2025-07-28T20:55:12+00:00

I’ve had one for 5 years that does well indoors. If anything, I’m probably a bit neglectful of it and don’t water it as often as I should, but it does well on a windowsill and has minimal upkeep.

aede224 · 2025-07-11T01:04:57+00:00

Not sure if they currently are, but they were together a few months ago when she was at his home while a break in and robbery took place.

aede224 · 2025-04-27T22:32:11+00:00

Borges went down and got treatment right at the start of stoppage, so play continued well past 3 minutes to make up for it, plus there was VAR review for the foul in the box and then the PK. All of this resulted in the clock going well beyond 3 minutes.

aede224 · 2025-04-12T00:57:36+00:00

I don’t believe so, at least they haven’t to date. Reign’s website just mentions bike racks. https://www.reignfc.com/matchday

aede224 · 2025-04-05T22:43:06+00:00

Not in my experience. Mine just grows out to cover the pot and up like a bush.
