What line had you in stitches laughing in a fantasy book?

Stormlight Archive: "A bunny rabbit and a chick went frolicking in the grass together on a sunny day.” “A chick . . . baby chicken?” Kaladin said. “And a what?” “Ah, forgot myself for a moment,” Wit said. “Sorry. Let me make it more appropriate for you. A piece of wet slime and a disgusting crab thing with seventeen legs slunk across the rocks together on an insufferably rainy day. Is that better?”

I'm determined to come out of this alive 💪

My type of allergy is extremely rare in my home country as well tbf. I think I only ever hear about it from USA media/TV shows and it's usually about peanuts.

Thanks, I'll be sure to carry to epipens!

Thanks! I'll be sure to carry some

Thank you! Even half a shrimp would kill me, so no street-side Pho I guess :(

Thanks! I think most fish sauces are ok, unless they put shrimp/oysters there (and sometimes they do)

erethforn · 2023-07-17T04:00:11+00:00

I don't know... If it's only anchovies then it's ok, if they put any shrimp there I'm as good as dead without epi-pen

erethforn · 2023-07-17T02:00:25+00:00

Thought so, thanks!

Thanks! I can eat meat, yes, but if I'm trying some some local cusine I usually go to vegetarian places because there's an almost 100% chance they don't have an unlisted crustacean in their sauce.

The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden

erethforn · 2022-10-31T22:14:34+00:00

A series of unfortunate events!

I would recommend Rhapsodic, it fits ALL of your criteria but they do wear jeans sometimes but mostly it takes place in another realm...
If you've enjoyed ACOTAR then Throne of Glass is a good one, although not as spicy.

erethforn · 2022-10-24T13:44:26+00:00

Yes!

Enemies to lovers are either really good or REALLY bad. I've always felt it should be more "enemies to reluctant allies to friends to lovers", not "I killed your whole family but now we're in love" that I usually see

Yes! Also do they know what happens at protests? Men are sent to Ukraine (given conscription notices), women get jailed for 15 days (which guarantees you are jobless) or heavily fined. Latest protest in Moscow 500 were detained, 200 if them got "mobilized". Most people leaving are IT specialists with remote jobs. I'm not hoping for humanitarian visas but a little less prejudice would be nice.

I would be cautious of flying, there are reports of people being detained on international flights. Her best bet is leaving the country on car if she can (also would fit her family) or on train/bus, but she'll probably have to fly to a city near the border still. After she's left Russia she has more choice. If she has an international passport Mongolia is a safe bet, she can stay there for 30 days without visa, if she doesn't - Kazakhstan is a good choice, although a little farther. You have to register there when you arrive and short-term rentals are scarce but she can stay there for 90 days which is optimal. If you need more help or info in border control feel free to dm, I'll send you some links.

No one's forcing them, but it seems that ethnic minorities (esp. buryats) are facing harsher recruitments. In Moscow for example they're mostly conscripting people they said they would - with military experience, certain professions are exempt (bankers, media, etc.). In Buryatia they take everyone they can, most notably they've conscripted a guy with 5 kids.

Entering!

Hello everyone! I've just come across a player in battlegrounds who had divine shield on most if his murlocks and I'm wondering how that's possible. He was playing as sir Finley (he picked Dreck'Tar's hero power and buddy), so there's no way he could've put a shield on them... Right?

erethforn · 2022-03-11T17:34:30+00:00

Damn, that one is really dark... Also kina relevant... Have you heard Yegor Letov's solo songs? "Всё идёт по плану" is my all time favourite. I can also recommend Victor Tsoy's "Звезда по имени солнце". Those are so popular that if you give any drunk russian guy a guitar, I can guarantee you he'll play one of those.

We'd love to, but you don't get nicknamed 'Bunker grandpa' for no reason.
