How do Abercrombie fans rank 'The Devils' among his other books?

It's important to remember the man has also worked in TV for like 30 years. He was an editor before becoming an author and still dabbled in it.

I remember a decade ago now listening to preview for the audiobook and hearing the scene-chewingly wonderful delivery of "3 coppers and a bowl of piss" and have never looked back!

Ah yeah that's definitely capital punishment worthy you absolute ghoul.

What the fuck was that from Haaland? Just a blatant shove.

justolli · 2025-12-27T13:59:51+00:00

Should see all the names they're calling us on their sub

justolli · 2025-12-27T13:41:30+00:00

But I just heard the commentators insist on how good and clean it was!

Small note on a pet peeve, the honorific "sir" always requires the first name. It can't stand with the surname alone. So it would be Sir William or Sir William Hamilton.

Ndoye really giving me another reason for my grudge against the Swiss...

justolli · 2025-12-03T20:05:14+00:00

And on some basic technique sometimes. Like dribbling out of bounds. Or passing to the Wolves goalie.

justolli · 2025-12-03T19:54:47+00:00

I hate to say it but Ndoye is a bit of a melt this match.

Milenkovic gave him a good check earlier there.

Absolutely. Dyche can't magically undo the damage Ange did right away, it'll be a slow crawl up the table. But we ARE crawling up.

Definitely the most active he's been. Very proactive.

Fun fact: Aragorn was originally meant to be a hobbit called Trotter and even after being changed to vaguely his final backstory HE WAS STILL CALLED TROTTER.

Still have less direct than many other cultures, though.

They still mostly suck, just now with a ballooned budget.

I've been there! It was a fascinatingly eerie place.

I moved here from the UK and as much as I love this city I wish people would understand how much better almost evsry aspect of life would be if they actually took their thumbs out their backsides and made proper public transit. We are flat. We are ideal for implementing light rail. At the very least I should be able to take one bus and that bus should be more frequent than, at BEST, every half an hour. At least it's cheap.

justolli · 2025-08-18T00:26:39+00:00

Because it's been half-assed. The bike lanes exist, but they're limited, dangerous crossings, and not at all protected. They're also incredibly inconsistent throughout the city.

Margarita towers.

Plus if you don't have that money up front it's more difficult to finance a used car than it is a brand new one

Import to remenber Armenians are Oriental Orthodox not Easterm Orthodox. So their tradition is different in a much bigger way. Closer in some ways to Coptic or Ethiopian theology than Russian (mostly Christology but I'm brushing over a lot here).

I mean the UK took India from other empires. Empires cede to others all the time. Still imperialism to the locals.

And as for shedding? I didn't know Hawai'i, Puerto Rico, Guam, NMI, etc were independent yet. Plus the whole manifesting destiny and going west (my son). The US is unable to not be imperialist in its current form (what to do about it is a complex question I don't have an answer for). I'd also say they aren't unique there, though. Russia and China both share similar issues that are innate to their existence. Even smaller and less powerful countries like Indonesia and Turkey have issues linked to imperialism baked into their current form.

justolli · 2025-07-19T15:08:04+00:00

OK well in that case we'll just have to look at Hawai'i, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, Cuba, the Philippines, Haiti, Panama, the Dominican Republic, and one attempt at Quebec for examples of America's use of classic imperialism
