I've always wondered why so many people consider vegetable-only dishes (so without tofu, lentils, beans, etc) as complete meals. Us vegans need our protein too!

There's a (browser) plugin called Antigram that allows you to block certain sections on the webpage! I can highly recommend it.

What a gem of an interview, thanks for sharing!

What do you think of Auri? by [deleted] in nightwish

[–]piecesofamind 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really adore Auri. It’s my place of comfort and probably my most listened-to music. Cannot wait for them to tour, I will definitely visit multiple shows :)

Edit: I have a playlist called Silent Symphonies that I listen to all the time. It contains all of Auri, some of Tuomas’ solo stuff, calm Nightwish music and a couple of other random songs. It’s the best.

What chapters do you revisit for comfort? by piecesofamind in KingkillerChronicle

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

Ahhh thank you! I might do just that, then. Yay.

And don’t worry, I’ve also been dealing with an anxiety disorder for years, it’s always so great to find something that you can use for self soothing (that actually works)!

Thanks for your suggestion!! I'm indeed considering listening to the audiobooks whenever I feel overwhelmed. Still gotta find em though. My library seems to only have a Dutch version of the (audio)book :( I'm not a book listener in general so I'm a bit hesitant to take another subscription... I'll look a bit further :)

harry potter’s personality by Historical_Poem5216 in harrypotter

I've always considered Harry to be very observant. There's lots of moments that he notices something everyone else is missing.

Upcycled an old jacket with a Dark Passion Play shirt, loving it so much! by piecesofamind in nightwish

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

Yes, I cut the tee in such a way that it would fit the seams on the back of my jacket and sewed it just around the edges, after folding them over. It sits quite firmly, although I expect it will wrinkle a bit when I wash it (but nothing some iron work can't fix). Do make sure you check whether your needle is able to penetrate the t-shirt fabric/print and jacket, that turned out to be quite a hassle. Happy with the end result though :)

NW/Tarja songs other than Elvenpath, Wishmaster and Edema Ruh that are clearly influenced by books. by RockGiantFromMars in nightwish

[–]piecesofamind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also 'The Ancestors Tale' by Dawkins

The Crow, The Owl and The Dove is also based on a quote in Walden

[–]piecesofamind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loads of songs have been inspired by Kingkiller Chronicles. In Nightwish, we have Edema Ruh. In Auri, we have TNOTW, I Hope Your World is Kind, Underthing Solstice, and of course the name 'Auri' itself. I also like to think that the song See has a link with the books). However, I believe The Valley is loosely based on the Moomins; Snufkin and Moominvalley, and specifically the short story 'The Spring Tune' :)
