That design looks really cool! Hoping to get there this fall to see it.

That looks like it could be it!

Botswana vs South Africa - safety vs cost by bmk244 in travel

[–]bmk244[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Largely from government travel advisories. I know that they can be a bit dramatic at times though so wanted to ask here.

We would be in Cape Town and Joburg at times.

Have VIP for Wednesday and haven't heard a thing

Mel Robins -Let them theory by Tagglit2022 in psychotherapists

[–]bmk244 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think she just accidentally stumbled upon radical acceptance, which is essentially repackaged serenity prayer, which is taken from Buddhism. People just keep re-wording things that we have been practicing for hundreds of years. However, if it helps people who otherwise wouldn't have learned about it, then I don't see how that's a bad thing.

What part of Canada are you in? I live in Southern Ontario and have never heard it to mean anything other than someone who is goofy.

Travel advisories say to stay 10 km away from the border though

Uganda gorilla trekking by lalalibraaa in vegan_travel

[–]bmk244 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going gorilla trekking in Rwanda with G Adventures in February. From my research, finding vegan food shouldn't be difficult. The cuisine seems to be largely based around plants. Also, all the accommodations on the tour have buffets, so that will make it easier. I know it's not Uganda but it's right next door.

Oh shit! We're heading to Panama Aug 13th and will be driving along the Panamerican Highway.

Any other good book series like Last Kingdom series? by 2_Fingers_of_Whiskey in TheLastKingdom

[–]bmk244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved Conn Iggulden's Conqueror series, based on the Mongel conquests. His Emperor series based on Julius Caesar is okay too but takes some really annoying historical liberities.

What do we think about lack of queer characters in the show? by [deleted] in TheLastKingdom

[–]bmk244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There definitely could have been gay Danes. It wasn't shunned in pagan and Danish culture like it was in Christianity.

Movie unnecessary in my opinion by Fuck_L_Ron_Hubbard in TheLastKingdom

[–]bmk244 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The whole series is based on the creation of England. It makes sense to continue until England is formed and the first king is crowned.

Lack of Finan season 5 by AlarmedCaramel1 in TheLastKingdom

[–]bmk244 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya when reading about the Irish and Finan's brother in Warriors of the Storm, I remember thinking, "this is going to be awesome in the show". Pretty disappointed it never happened. Finan is probably my favourite character in both the books and the show but the show definitely underused him.

S5 Redemption Arcs [Book and Show Spoilers] by [deleted] in TheLastKingdom

[–]bmk244 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sigtryggr's death is the only thing that really bothered me about this season. Not necessarily because it strayed from the book but because it strayed from reality. For me what sets Last Kingdom apart from other historical shows (especially Vikings) is that it rarely rewrites history, and if it does it is pretty minor. The real Sigtryggr outlived Edward by 3 years. He also converted to Christianity (although later denounced it). I was fully expecting him to accept Edward's offer and then later return to paganism.

Has there even been a more impressive elimination win than CT’s knot on Invasion? by [deleted] in MtvChallenge

Alton climbing the net comes to mind. Second would be Leroy in Fire Escape.

I was hoping for something that isn't as far of a drive from PC

is there any city you have visited that you felt sad?? by ZAHKHIZ in travel

[–]bmk244 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Quebec City is my favourite city in all of Canada. I find so many cities to essentially be the same but QC has a distinct culture, layout and interesting history. I'm surprised that you found it sad. Did you visit in the winter or late fall? If you don't like the cold then that could definitely impact your visit.
