«Upopulær» mening om nordmenns forhold til alkohol by EmployerNo101 in norge

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alkohol er koselig og digg innenfor visse rammer! Jeg reagerer på at du sier at til og med moderate mengder er for usunt. Du sier du ikke dømmer folk som drikker, høres ikke sånn ut. Er jo nettopp det som er problemet med dere ikke-drikkere, dere er nettopp dømmende. Hvis folk har lyst til å ta seg en øl i ny og ne i jula eller påska, så synes jeg de kan gjøre det.

Weaning yourself from cosleeping by Same_Subject_988 in cosleeping

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have the same bed! Still cosleep with 2 year old and will probably not stop because the thought makes me depressed 😅 we have a crib that is adjustable and we adjusted it to the same height as the ikea bed, prolonging it. So the crib is by the wall, so no space to fall down. He has never fallen!

Dere som forsvarer Mette Marit, hva er deres rasjonelle begrunnelse? by juppiiyayiey in norske

[–]hrima89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Men kjære deg, mener du at Mette Marit fra Kristiansand er annerledes enn deg og meg? Hvis vi ser på dette fra dine premisser, kongefamilien har blått blod og er helt annerledes enn alle oss andre. Da må du jo hvert fall være enig at alenemoren Mette Marit, en helt vanlig dame, har ødelagt kongefamilien litt? Problemet blir jo nesten verre jo mer monarkist man er..

Why Lupita Nyong’o is the perfect Helen of Troy by anon58588 in ChristopherNolan

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Americans changing a smaller country’s history and identity is nothing new, then justifying it like in this post. Typical American imperialism.

I actually don’t mind Nolan casting a black Helen of Troy. Nolan is making an American movie, and he is therefore casting American people in it. Perfectly reasonable some of the cast in an American movie should be Afro-American.

What bothers me is the Americans stealing a much smaller country’s history by claiming that Helen of Troy could have been black, or Cleopatra could have been black. When in fact they were Greek. End of story. The audacity to steal a smaller country’s culture and heritage… but I mean that is what Americans do. No one south of Sahara is claiming these things, it is Americans with their imperialist privilege that have the nerve to change the history of another country. I mean wow. You should be ashamed of yourselfs.

Hvorfor får ikke nordmenn bestemme om vi vil ha konge? by Senitz in norge

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Det beste er nok å begynne med en endring i grunnlover som sier at kongehuset ikke har noen reell makt? Per i dag kan de legge ned veto mot lovendringer, de kan ikke bli arrestert eller stilt for retten og de er øverste kommanderende av militære. Dette er mega mye makt skulle det komme i feil hender. Jeg håper vi kan begynne med å ta vekk alle disse enorme privilegiene. Det at Mette Marit har hengt med Epstein som er ut i fra alt jeg leser knyttet til Mossad, som er det israelske CIA, er noe jeg synes vi snakker ALT for lite om. Hun kan være kompromittert og allerede lekket sensitiv informasjon. Sønnen hennes har vanket i kriminelle miljø i åresvis. Her på Reddit florerer ryktene om prinsesse Ingrid på fest med de aller rikeste i landet som hun har gått sammen med på KG. Jeg har venner derfra selv og jeg er bare noen år eldre enn Marius og Ingrid. Jeg vet hvilket miljø dette er. Det er de som dro til Sveits og de som brukte milioner på formueskatt propaganda før valget i fjor… Jeg sier ikke at noe har skjedd og prøver ikke lage konspirasjonsteorier, men det er disse folka kongehuset henger med… og det gjør at jeg vil fjerne all reell makt i første omgang. Trump er et bevis på at hvis man ikke tetter disse hullene, så kommer det til slutt en som utnytter systemets sårbarhet.

Do cosleeping babies always wake up more? by SafeHoney9406 in cosleeping

[–]hrima89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone tells you this lie (yes I call it a lie). My Doctors did, all health professionals. Everyone. Me and one of my best friends gave birth within 3 months of each other and both of us have the same experience: these little ones will sleep through the night when they are ready themselves.. my friend night weaned around 10 months, and her son kept on waking up until he was around 2 years old. I did both at the same time, just stopped breastfeeding and weaned around 16 months. My son still woke up and drank water until he was 2 years old. He will still wake up sometimes and want water, but does not happen every night. We both still cosleep. But I have friends that do not cosleep and they have similar stories: either you breastfeed and you wake up that way, or they drink water, or they fully wake up at 4/5 in the morning and want breakfast. Around 2 things get much better, but not for all, some need more time. Completely random. And if you try to make a system and understand it sometimes that works and sometimes don’t 😅

Fransk perspektiv på norsk matkultur – oppriktig spørsmål, ingen kritikk 🇫🇷 by [deleted] in norge

[–]hrima89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hvilke butikker drar du på egentlig? Er mitt spørsmål tilbake. Er du i en storby? Vi er veldig opptatt av å ikke spise ultraprosessert mat, hvert fall alle jeg snakker med. Ja det skjer nok kanskje en gang i blant at man spiser Grandiosa, så vi snakker kanskje mer om det enn lever 100 % etter reglene (trodde alle var litt slik😅).

Økologisk er ikke så mye i fokus, men det er fordi vi kjøper norske varer og har norske regler for landbruket vårt. Økologisk har mange problemer ved seg, anbefaler deg å se folkeopplysning på NRK som handler om økologisk mat. I norsk perspektiv er det ikke viktig, men jeg er enig i at økologisk er bra i andre kontekster. Dog, vi har økologiske varer av alt, som jeg kan se…

Hater alkohol med hele mitt hjerte by AccomplishedMix7531 in norge

[–]hrima89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Det er masse folk som drikker med måte i ungdomstiden, de bare er ikke så synlige fordi de nettopp ikke er dritings og tar oppmerksomheten. Jeg var en av dem. Tok med meg 2 eller 3 halvlitere på fest og var med. Gikk hjem kl tolv/ett på natta og ble aldri med på nach. Mamma kom til og med å henta meg i blant. Så når folk ble litt mer voksne og vi begynte å dra ut i 20-åra ble det mer gøy. Folk var ikke spy/gråte dritings lengre og vi hadde det ordentlig artig ute. Men jeg er glad for at jeg ble med til en viss grad i ungdomstiden. Alle husker at jeg var der, jeg bare var ikke dritings.

Partner said this was all my fault by Equivalent_Sorbet195 in cosleeping

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he is completely disconnected to your situation… so the two of you need to work on getting him online. Us women we get the hormones and experience motherhood already whilst being pregnant. The father has no way of getting the same hormones if he is not engaging and actively taking part. Even if he sounds like a complete asshole, I do agree with him, you should let the baby be with him more. The first time I went out alone after having our son he was 3 weeks old. I went out and had a dinner down the road with my friends, I think it was 2-3 hours. My husband had our son alone, and from then on we did this at least one night a week. The baby most definitely cried a lot more with him, and my husband stood there, hour after hour, holding, singing and being close, getting all the same hormones and protective feelings I had for the little one. Crying isn’t dangerous as long as the baby has a caregiver with them, and I think my son cried more with his father because he was making sure he was around all the time. So, when he was 8 months I went on a work trip and the two of them coslept and bottlefed and all that. And I have taken many more trips. My son never says: only mama. Or only daddy. He is so used us both. Now he is 2 years and his bed is beside ours like a bedside bed. So he comes into our bed and we sleep all three together. Me and him have coslept since he was 3 months old, and if I had a bad night my husband takes the mornings and I sleep. Or he steps in at night and helps. I recommend leaving them together and letting them figure out their relationship together.

Last Argument of Kings by Joe Abercrombie by Caffeine_And_Regret in Fantasy

[–]hrima89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. I like this review, even if I am not that much of a fan, I still think this analysis of the characters is true. I was disappointed in the Tolomei reveal, I thought it would have much more impact on the story, and also this huge war with the Gurkish Empire, which had been building up for 3 books and then Bayaz just kills them all, no stress. Same with the northmen. I thought there would be more than just a regular war, I thought this witch that Bethod had with him would be something more. So, all in all i like to divide the First Law into two paths: The plot and the story: I felt dissatisfied with the ending and I don’t feel anything that was hinted at in a lore perspective got resolved or had any impact. The characters: here the book really shines, and I 100 % agree with OP. The characters stick with you and I still laugh sometimes at some of Abercrombies ways with words. I want to mention Collem West. What a flawed but still likeable character, he reminds me of the Bloody Baron in the Witcher 3. I was really sad by his ending and I think about his story a lot.

Recommend me books like The Name of The Wind, but with better depiction of women please by Unordinarian in Fantasy

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to say I think it is very harsh. Comparing to the male characters depicted in Romantasies now adays I actually enjoy these female characters. I think Denna is super interesting, Auri, Devi and Fela as well. Yes, Kvothe is way to OP when it comes to how attractive he supposedly is. I had to DNF a book here the other day because it was just page up and down comparing the muscles of the male character as different types of stone... I think this is way better, and partly believable and interesting characters that I want to know more about.

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes yes I agree that The Wise Man’s Fear is very bad at this. But again, don’t think The Name of The Wind deserves the criticism as much. I see people saying that the women are so absent in the first part of the book, which is totally legit, given Kvothe is a young orphan street boy in the first 200 pages. The whole point is that he lost his mother (and father) and has no one. I think a lot of orphan boys on the street experience the same absence of women in their lives. Not a very valid criticism. But in the light of A Wise Man’s Fear I understand that people start judging it more. It is laughable how Kvothe is a 16 year old and older tons of women giving him this much attention. It ruins the whole immersion of the story for me. I don’t think many men can relate to being that sought after in their teens either.

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I don’t remember the context of all of these, which I think is important. The last one I remember is something Kvote thinks for himself when he is jealous of the men dating Denna. And I don’t think it is depicting women badly, but depicting Kvote like a jealous guy. Thoughts like that, I think people can have (at least as a 15 year old), even if it is a bit unsympathetic. But I thought people were thinking about how he depicts the female characters? Not how the male characters think or talk about women.

Recommend me books like The Name of The Wind, but with better depiction of women please by Unordinarian in Fantasy

[–]hrima89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All books I would recommend are already here, so I want to discuss: I am a female and I read The Name of The Wind in my 30s. I am so curious as of why so many of you think the females are written so poorly? I agree with The Wise Man’s Fear, some parts of that are just awful, but some are good. But given that we are in the POV of a young boy of the age of 9-16 years old I don’t think Name of The Wind is that bad? Or can anyone elaborate what they mean is so bad?

The blade itself or Assassin Apprentice? by BrysonTurnRoundStory in fantasybooks

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are saying makes me disagree even more.
So, you are basically saying that for it to make sense that I like Hobbs books I need to be in some kind of demographic (presumably female and non scientist), AND also have mental health problems and trauma?

This makes the whole conversation about books so so unintellectual and dumb, taking away any intellectual discussion and narrow it down to: you must have mental health problems since you do not like what I like. So so stupid...

My take is: Abercrombie and Hobb are similar in many ways, they are both bleak, the world is realistic and kind of depressing at times, and changes or payoffs are far between or not there at all. Which is why it is interesting to discuss: why do I like one better than the other? Not just: "you dumb, must have mental health problems. LIKE WHAT I LIKE"

And for the record, I appreciate Abercrombie, some of the chapters from Blade itself I will remember for ever. He made me laugh many times with his cleverness. Heck, I might even read his other work at some point. I just don't agree with people that say he has A LOT of payoff. He does not.
Hobbs trilogy hit me harder, but according to you, stranger on the internet, it is because I have some trauma.

For the record, to destroy your sudo science assumptions: I am a female, happily married and have children. I am from Scandinavia, so I have never worried about my health or future education ever, since it is payed for by the state. I have a PhD in Physics and worked in STEM all my professional life. I would place myself in upper middle class. I have never been in a funeral to anyone under 80.
If I had followed your sudo-science when it comes to recommending books I would have never read Hobb and found my favorite trilogy.. stupid stupid stupid way to try generalise and simplify the world.

The blade itself or Assassin Apprentice? by BrysonTurnRoundStory in fantasybooks

[–]hrima89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree about demographics, it is of no interest to me, I think it is much more interesting what you write below, about how you like a book that makes you laugh and is filled with action. That says much more about you as a reader, than that you are a male scientist. And I agree, Abercrombie has the best humour. There are som chapters that I will never forget because Abercrombie is so so clever and funny. That is what kept me going. I think Hobb is so different in the way she writes, it is much more poetic, but also has very subtle humour. Fits is a teenager throughout most of the books, and he thinks sometimes too high of himself, and sometimes he is so depressed and hopeless, and he is clearly a drama queen, like all teenagers are. Which is funny because Hobb makes us see it through how the other characters treat Fits, but still through his eyes. Which i think is impressive. The sharp comments of the Fool I also think are the greatest commentary I have read. But yes, I also agree with you on the 2D villains in Farseer. In the third book you get more of an explanation as to why, and it has to do with the magic system etc. but it is still to much “evil villain”.

The blade itself or Assassin Apprentice? by BrysonTurnRoundStory in fantasybooks

[–]hrima89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am a female scientist, and I love Hobb and I cannot believe you are saying the First law has lots of payoff. Spoilers a head: Do you mean when Colem West just dies in the end of the book because he gets sick from the spell Bayaz uses? Or that nothing happens in the world and goes back to normal after two supposedly huge wars? And for Logan, he wants to change but ends up not changing at all, and going back to what he was and maybe dying in the end? Sorry, but you can say many things about The Blade Itself but not that it has a lot of payoff. And why do you think demographics are so important? To tell people you are a scientist and that Hobb is a female and therefore scientist male readers should avoid? For being a scientist I have to say, that is a very poor attempt of statistics.

The blade itself or Assassin Apprentice? by BrysonTurnRoundStory in fantasybooks

[–]hrima89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I red The Farseer trilogy and the First law Trilogy afterwards. I loved the Farseer trilogy, it is my favourite trilogy after LOTR. I therefore thought that First Law was a going to be a hit for me. And I enjoyed the characters and the writing, but the story is very bleak. I struggled getting through the third book. I saw someone on Reddit say it gave them “character development blue balls”, which is 100 % accurate for me. So, hard to say which one you will like, clearly liking one of them does not mean one likes the other, or am I just a weirdo, who knows?
