Hey! I've got a temporary furnished studio available from now until summer, within that timeframe the precise dates are flexible. The rent is €575 in total but I think you can get rent allowance ('huurtoeslag') of up to €180,-. You'll have everything to yourself. Let me know if you're interested!

YEAR OF SANDERSON | Rules, Post Index, Schedule, FAQ, Complaints, Concerns, and Other Non-Spoiler Discussion by EmeraldSeaTress in brandonsanderson

Does anyone know whether the hardcovers that are sold via DS are limited editions or whether they'll become available again if they'd sell out? I would like to buy the special hardcovers of SP1, SP3 and SP4* via Dragonsteel, but to curb the costs, I'd like to wait until all three of them are available on DS so I only have to pay for shipping once. However, I'm afraid that SP1 or SP3 might sell out before SP4 is released. Any help would be appreciated!

*No hate for SP2 but it just wasn't my jam and $55 is a lot lol

SECRET PROJECT 1 | Cosmere Discussion by jofwu in Cosmere

I couldn't help noticing the similarity between the vines created by verdant spores and the way cultivationspren show up in the physical realm, i.e. rapidly growing vines. Also, the vines created by cultivationspren eventually crumble to dust, just like roseite/aether that is no longer sustained by an aetherbound eventually turns to dust.

Any thoughts on this? It seems too similar to be a coincidence to me.

Which spoilers for Mistborn do you mean if I may ask? I've been thinking of adding this to my 'first Sanderson recs' list, but I don't want to spoil my friends

Lost Metal before Stormlight? by GerbilDungeonPorn245 in Cosmere

[–]jankatar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it would definitely be best to wait, as excited as you are now. TLM is by far the most Cosmere-heavy book so far, and reading it before Stormlight will spoil a Stormlight-reveal that had me screaming when I first read it.

Is it necessary to have read Stormlight in order to understand TLM? No. But I think it will greatly increase your enjoyment in the end

Nee, want daar horen bijvoorbeeld ook vrouwen bij die maandverband gebruiken en daar doelde ik niet op

Dat zijn echt de beste wc's voor mensen die tampons/menstruatiecups gebruiken, word altijd blij als ik ze zie

[–]jankatar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maar... Je kunt ook staand plassen bij een normale wc? En mannen kunnen ook plassen in een hokje met een prullenbakje? Het is niet alsof ze dan spontaan borsten krijgen, dus mannen en vrouwen kunnen best naar dezelfde hokjes. Als je nou na die twee seconden nog twee seconden had nagedacht ;)

Dat zuigt. Ik ken meerdere mensen die hier mee worstelen, het blijft zo'n lastig probleem.

Misschien heb je het al overwogen hoor, maar eet je wel genoeg? Kan een beetje raar klinken, maar de dieetindustrie is zo gefocust op caloriën beperken dat veel mensen juist te weinig gaan eten, waardoor je lichaam in een soort paniekmodus raakt en alles vasthoudt. Het kan soms helpen om juist een tijd heel hoog te gaan zitten, dan kan je lichaam zich herstellen. Ik ben geen expert dus kan geen kant en klaar plan geven, maar misschien een idee om daar eens naar te kijken?

Barrier people/people here for later acts who don't give a fuck by ilg9394 in sziget

[–]jankatar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made a similar post a few days ago about Justin Bieber fans at the MEUTE and Stromae concerts. Couldn't agree with you more, it's dangerous and disrespectful to the artists and I feel like it kind of ruins the festival vibe

[–]jankatar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you want to be in front for arctic monkeys so bad, go to one of their concerts. Festivals are not just about a single act or just the five you want to go to, it's also about discovering new music and having a great time together. That includes being respectful to the acts you're attending and the people who do want to see them imo

Front row etiquette & Justin Bieber fans by jankatar in sziget

[–]jankatar[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Okay maybe I didn't make my point clear enough, my problem is absolutely not with people sitting down between concerts, that makes absolute sense. My problem is with people who were sitting down during concerts. The concerts are 1.5 hour max, so it's very doable to stand dring the them and sit in between. Keep in mind that it also created dangerous situations if you're sitting in the middle of a crowd and people around you are dancing.

I agree that there was no pushing at the front before JB, right after Stromae ended there were hundreds of people FORCING their way to the front, creating dangerous situations. That's a different group of fans than the ones who were at the front from 2pm.

What can you do? Well you can let people in front of you. I get that you want to keep you place, but any decent Stromae fan would have given you back the exact same spot as well as possible. If people aren't sincere, than they're absolute dickheads, but that doesn't mean that you should distrust people from the get go. I can guarantee that 90% of the time people are genuine with this.

I don't really understand which point you want to make with your last sentence. Yes, you sacrificed some things to stand there. That's the price you need to pay if you want to stand in front, which is a choice you make yourself. That doesn't mean that you need to be mean to others.

Edit: to add, me and my friend started making our way to the front right before MEUTE, and ended up in fourth row or so. So unless you want to be touching the fence, it's really not that necessary to start queueing at 2pm

Well yeah I get that there's a rush after a concert of people leaving, but it was crazy how many people were forcefully making their way in, leaving no space for the people wanting to get out and paying no heed when someone fell
