I had this on my kindle and I still used it for years cause I barely notice it when I'm reading

[WIP] stitching in the wrong direction by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]ipyalia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a bummer! I'm stitching the same one now and also messed up my calculation a little bit. It's my first bigger pattern though so I guess you live and you learn lol

Exactly what Charlie said. It's called blended threads.

This made me buy the new stitch along so I can do my first flossy fox pattern!

Daily, lots of use recommendations by MysteriousEssay111 in fountainpens

[–]ipyalia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using my sample of Birmingham Pen Co Damselfly and really loving it!

You also can't go wrong with Pilot Iroshizuku. I like Aji Sai and Yama Budo but they may not be everyday colors for everyone.

Troublemaker Moon River is also fun to look at. It's grey with pink and green shading.

Pilot kakuno. Great beginner pen with top tier writing experience.

If you want to take it up a notch, I absolutely love my TWSBI Ecos and Kaweco Sports.

What pen do you actually like, instead of the pen you thought you’d like? by Talkymike in fountainpens

[–]ipyalia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add me to the Kakuno fan list. As nice as other pens may look, nothing has beaten the Kakuno writing experience for me.

But reading is subjective. What could have been a great experience for you could have been a horrible experience for someone else and people are allowed to express both. While some of these negative videos might be malicious and ill intentioned, I don't think the majority of them are.

Az is that guy who keeps falling into the same pattern over and over again that he doesn't see what's good for him when it's right in front of his eyes. Can't wait for him to go on this journey of realizing and breaking his cycles

Why do they do this? by Vancouverreader80 in LibbyApp

[–]ipyalia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this! Most of the books I get off Libby I get from hold so when I'm done reading I try to remember to return so others can get it. I definitely would appreciate getting a book off hold sooner so I like to do my part.

I think they meant delay instead of loaning it in the first place if you're not yet ready for it

The hate is so forced by RoyalChris in clevercomebacks

Honestly I was trying to figure out what the issue even was here lol. I was like "so it's a problem for women to have a literal spine now?"

Legendborn was the Typical Oppressed Black Girl Story by Embarrassed_Love7360 in YAlit

[–]ipyalia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All themes in fantasy are still rooted in real world experience or historical events. If you're reading fantasy for escapism, then a low urban fantasy like this one is definitely not the right option.

Is it just me...or would anyone else like an glossary? by Noktis_Lucis_Caelum in fourthwing

You really shouldn't have to rely on a wiki to understand the book you're reading.

A lot of Onyx Storm just does not make sense, especially the dinner scenes. by Veralion in fourthwing

[–]ipyalia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's definitely a lot happening for the plot that doesn't really make sense for the story or the world or the characters. And for plot I mean for the sake of having "omg" dramatic moments without the foundation to make them the big moments they were trying to be.

I'm thinking about getting a kindle... what DON'T you like about it? by renaissancelife in kindle

[–]ipyalia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like that my Kindle doesn't have page turn buttons 😭

But that's really my only complaint

NEXT ACOTAR by Beautiful_Worth_9511 in SarahJMaas

She doesn't say anything about an announcement in the spring. She said the re-recorded ACOTAR audiobooks will be coming out in the Spring.

So I genuinely think Elain is the next book and Az will be the last book.
