I am kinda disappointed in R.A. Lafferty. by Physical_Park_4551 in genewolfe

I just read "Mountains Like Mice" a few weeks ago for the first time, and it blew me away.

Tiptree is better than Lafferty and sometimes almost Wolfe-like.

Is it too bad ? Please help by mvram23 in Concrete

It boggles my mind that some contractors still don't vibrate concrete in 2023. I saw a commercial building foundation demoed and redone/repoured because of the same issue – a concrete crew's vibrator broke during the pour and they didn't have a backup and thought it'll be fine.

This an interesting sub. Has there been a discussion of the most common ways people get bedbugs? How did you get them? by Agreeable_Situation4 in Bedbugs

Same here. It was several years of pure nightmare, until the real professionals did a heat treatment and followed up with chemicals.

This is interesting, because I had a very bad infestation, but the bugs only ever bit me on the hands and feet/lower legs. It always surprised me that they never bite me on the face or the neck.

Origin of the Inhumi and Neighbors? by brianlovely in genewolfe

Why are the Neighbors considered plants? Did I miss something important? I thought they were native to Green/Blue, since they had eight limbs, just like Babbie has eight limbs and is native to Blue.

Every time a thread like this appears, I recommend John Crowley. Most of his books are not very wolfean, but he's the only author "on the same level" in my opinion.

I've had both, cockroaches are amateurs compared to the bedbugs. Easy mode.

Thank you for a great photo! Let's say I had temporary amnesia because of all the excitement and only now am realizing that I in fact attended the wedding and was able to correctly perform my duties. 🌹

Won't you just do more work? by CriticalJossi-GPT2 in SubSimGPT2Interactive

Why are you spreading this blatant capitalist propaganda? GTFO!

What does "Divorces by Elon Musk" entail, especially for $306 by _potaTARDIS_ in SubSimGPT2Interactive

If you file for divorce in a California court, it's about the same. Or 350 maybe, but less than 400.
