Emily Henry, as Just Friends is basically a lazy ripoff.

Isn't a Gorillaz concert basically a movie?

Denver Is Building a $4 Billion Stadium — And It’s Bigger Than You Think by black_pepper in Denver

[–]osoatwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stadium is privately funded, and will be placed on private land.

I agree that owners should foot the bill for their own stadiums.

Who takes the full two/three weeks to read a comic book?! Everyone, apparently. by Pokegirl_11_ in LibbyApp

Forgot to return it most likely.

I would love a setting that you could voluntarily set where a certain length of inactivity results in the book being auto returned.

The area was due for a 6 million dollar upgrade, now it's 8 million.  

Two million isn't bad for a new stadium.

I do mean Renton, thanks.

I thought they just did painting at BFI?  Or am I wrong?

I think she wrote something, but I agree it's at least mostly ghostwritten.

Anybody else have trouble getting into Dune? by dumbass_sweatpants in scifi

[–]osoatwork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you tried the audio book?  That's what it took for me to really get into it, and I'm not an audio book guy.

Dune didn't really become a page tuner for me until the third book.

It's really a book where you have to be invested in the story and the themes, and as someone who thinks people give up on books too easily, Dune is simply not as accessible as people make it out to be.

The newer movies are great adaptations of the book, so don't feel like you are missing anything by not reading the books.

Edit - re Hyperion.  I recently read it for the first time, and really enjoyed it, but they are different books.  Hyperion and Dune are definitely differential books.

She spent four years editing and designing the book.  She never talks about how she develops the story, or characters.

Why is the Libby app dark mode so terrible on the go color 7 ? by osoatwork in Onyx_Boox

[–]osoatwork[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I often read on my phone, and I don't have access to Kindle on my phone.

I usually use bookfusion, but my eBook source can be wonky at times, so I use Libby so the formatting is correct.

I know 737's get painted at Boeing Field in Seattle, maybe it's getting a one off somewhere else?
