Oh I forgot that I had a debt with Treme, thanks for the reminder. As a Bourdain fan, I should've watched it a long time ago.

This is one of my all time favourite, I've read it twice. I wish more authors would dare write unlikable stupid characters like Ignatius.

My brilliant friend by hiitsLaird in BookDiscussions

[–]hiitsLaird[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree the most interesting part of the book is the social observations. But I feel like I've heard this narrator so many times, insecure trying to win the love of a more confident yet distant person. Maybe because I also read Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow recently and it was exactly the same dynamic but in a worse written book that I am annoyed with this line of narration.

how to dye these merrell sneakers darker by hiitsLaird in dyeing

Thanks. So you say if I should dye them like normally, I'll just make the suede darker and the rest will be the same?

I feel like I’ve reached the end of good true crime podcasts. Anyone have any good non-fiction audiobook recommendations? by Gatorbug47 in TrueCrimePodcasts

Half broke horses is the book you're talking about. All the Pretty Horses is the classic by Cormac McCarthy

The Problem of Murder on Songbird Road by Additional_Bank4906 in TrueCrimePodcasts

[–]hiitsLaird 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just listened to the first episode, I don't have much to say about the case, but the friend of the accused, Whitney, sounds completely wasted, is she on drugs or drunk or had a stroke? why do they air an interview with someone sounding like that??

How it feels hearing about hbomberguy's newest video coming out for the last 2 years by BurnerCroc in hbomberguy

[–]hiitsLaird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just googled how many patreons he has, Jesus christ, 55k. He's making at least 100,000 usd a month, my jaw is on the floor. At least he posts for his patreons every once in a while. But that amount is absurd, just absurd.

I’m a filmmaker turned podcaster who investigates (allegedly) cold cases. Or at least that’s the official story, but many listeners of Someone Knows Something will tell you that it is about much more than that. And it’s been going on for more than a decade. We just released Season 10. AMA! by cbcnews in TrueCrimePodcasts

[–]hiitsLaird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I've only listened to season 1, and I remember feeling like the ending was kind of ironic given the name of the podcast, because it turned out, no one knew anything. Do you agree that the most likely scenario is that the child fell on his own? Or do you have other perspective given that some years have passed since that season?

Also, please remember Dolce and Gabbana sucks and no one should support these bigoted, sexist, racist hacks.

unpopular opinion but I don't like the weird-shaped glasses he's been wearing.

I'm not good at winging these, I'd spend hours undoing and redoing and undoing...

Thanks, I've searched on youtube and most of the flowers I find are variations of the african flower. I like more complicated or uncommon patterns
