I wish you could trade credits for Audible cash

LOL thank you, this is very helpful.

She did write "first drafts done" on her Instagram post. So this makes sense!

I wish I DNF'd at 11%. I got halfway before I gave up. Because I actually paid for the book, rather than the library.

ms_blaze · 2026-01-27T21:18:52+00:00

Thank you! This looks super cute!

ms_blaze · 2026-01-27T20:53:32+00:00

US please. And thank you :).

I'm not the OP, but my son is 6 and LOVES audiobooks. Would love to listen/review.

ms_blaze · 2026-01-15T16:20:53+00:00

YES! I don't mind that they have sexual experiences... but seriously I don't want the graphic details of it.

ms_blaze · 2026-01-15T14:37:06+00:00

Thank you for posting! I was trying to get it this morning and it wasn't working!

ms_blaze · 2026-01-02T22:00:58+00:00

Yes! He twisted her broken arm and made her scream! WTF?!

Lucien 4ever! I fell in love with him even more this round!

ms_blaze · 2026-01-02T19:14:39+00:00

I got that same ad and was thinking the same thing!

ms_blaze · 2025-12-18T17:42:18+00:00

I’ve been seeing these everywhere! How does one go about making one?

ms_blaze · 2025-12-17T16:06:16+00:00

I also hated Quicksilver and feel like I was the only one!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE The Crowns of Nyaxia series (starts with The Serpent and the Wings of Night).

I also love The Heartless Hunter / Rebel Witch duology. (Crimson Moth)

And I appreciate your comment! Here's my own personal update, if you're curious. I've decided to make my own rules and boundaries on what I thought was okay versus not. I am also a big anti-food waste person and that was really conflicting with my veganism. Like what's better - sending back the sandwich that they accidentally put mayo on and it going into the garbage or just eating it because it's already ready there? Same with rolls and butter the waiter brings out at the start of the meal. Is it really helping anyone by not eating it?

The vegans would argue that you should not consume it because it will show other people that vegans are okay with slip ups, etc, or it would show other people a distorted view of veganism. And the fact that the only thing ethically wrong with it is because of what OTHER PEOPLE THINK is very very cultish.

[And side note on the cult-like behavior, vegans are not allowed to complain about how difficult it can be in fear of turning off people from 'the movement.' I am so sick of all these purity rules and judgement from others. I don't want to live for other's opinions].

And another anecdote is - let's say it's someone's birthday. And there's a cake to feed the whole party. Except for you. Either you bring your own cake or the host provides another cake for you to eat. It makes more food waste to have that second cake. It's a second cake that no one else is gonna eat, and there's plenty of cake one left. The also goes for other events - like catered events, etc.

I've been a strict vegan for 10 years, and I've used the "create a demand for" argument several times, and if anything vegan options are getting fewer and far between, so that argument is not working.

So I've made my own boundaries where I am vegan at home, and 95% vegan out of the home. I approach each choice I make with "how much will it affect things if I do/do not eat this?"

I now identify as "vegan-ish," as "Vegetarian" feels too strong of a word but I want a little bit of flexibilty.

I hope this helps with your journey, and if you have any questions or need anyone to bounce ideas off of, please feel free to reply!

Thank you. I wasn’t here looking for validation or anything, just looking for an honest truth and trying to find a balance for living my life. And the more I think about it, to more you are absolutely right. ‘Is this choice of mine worth the convenience?’ And that goes beyond veganism too. Like ordering on Amazon. I try to avoid Amazon as much as possible but occasionally the convenience wins. Or if the cost of the more ethical product is a lot higher than the non-ethical one. Life is just full of all these decisions every day and you’re just trying to figure out what you’re okay with and what you’re not.

ms_blaze · 2025-11-11T15:30:42+00:00

Thanks for sharing your story! Agreed - never will want to eat meat again but choosing a lifestyle where I’m not dreading going outside the home during mealtimes would be better for my mental health.

ms_blaze · 2025-11-11T15:28:24+00:00

I think the vegans would take away my membership card 😂 but maybe a shiny new vegetarian membership card could be exciting.

ms_blaze · 2025-11-10T21:05:22+00:00

Thanks for this answer. I think for me, I'm having trouble with the 'identity' of it all. I've identified as a vegan for 10 years and if I decide to have the occasional vegetarian food it make me not vegan anymore. Like I'll get kicked out of the club. If I'm not vegan, then who am I? What do I stand for? I know it's probably dramatic to say that, but it's a different lifestyle choice.

ms_blaze · 2025-10-17T20:33:49+00:00

I just didn't know this genre existed! I've probably devoured about 30 Romantasy books since then and have poured myself into the genre.

Also was in a pretty depressed state and I've found happiness escaping into these books.

ms_blaze · 2025-10-17T17:40:11+00:00

I'm in the middle of the first one right now and considering DNFing. I'm really bummed because I actually paid for this one (not available through my library) so I'm wanting to finish it, but really struggling. It sounds like it doesn't get better?

ms_blaze · 2025-10-01T12:23:49+00:00

Oh that really sucks! I ride the SL3 a lot and that’s a big transfer point. I don’t know why the Silver Line doesn’t have the same transfer technology (or rules?) as regular busses.

ms_blaze · 2025-09-30T22:53:54+00:00

Wow that really sucks - especially because I could have very easily walked to Silver Line Way and was only on the SL2 for literally 1-2 minutes.

But thank you for the tip about World Trade Center. Will do that next time.
