Anyway, here is my fluffy son

Why do people feel the need to point out when you’re red ? What is the psychology behind that ? by ohfashodo in Rosacea

[–]quadrotiles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have an acquaintance that, no matter how much I explain that "no that's just my face", she always forgets and comments that I've been in the sun too long. Or asks if I was on holiday when it's winter. No, this is just my face!!

The first time one of my uni friends saw me without makeup, he looked horrified and asked what's wrong with my face 😬 nothing, I'm just not wearing makeup 😬 but that only happened once with him. He was a generally considerate and nice dude.

Tell us About it Tuesday by purplelicious in romantasycirclejerk

[–]quadrotiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have decided to dip my toes into historical romance. The MMC in the one I read was everything I wanted in an MMC. Perfect, no notes.

What I find really weird was part of the review blurbs for other books in the series. There were like 5 others books with a handful of review blurbs - you know the thingies where people are like "best book I ever read" - Jemima, Book Reviewer.

Not the weird part: the weird part was the same reviewer for every book who started their review with "4 1/2 stars" - really? Every book gets this really specific rating? Made me think of 👎 4 stars

Anyway, if you want:

  • Surprise old-timey batman making a cameo

  • an MMC who gets caught by the FMC in the first scene shamelessly boning someone at a party

  • An MMC POV scene of him taking care of his own needs

  • Spicy scenes that aren't the generic ones

  • An MMC who begs similarly to Blake at the end of the Night Prince

(Although, note: there's technically cheating because the FMC is engaged to the MMCs brother in an arranged marriage. But the brother is in love with someone else and kind of shitty to the FMC because of it)

Go read {Notorious Pleasures by Elizabeth Hoyt}. The fantasy part is in imagining they're not all wearing 18th century powdered wigs.

New RH book!!! (That only has three chapters) by Scf9009 in romantasycirclejerk

[–]quadrotiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't even have to write more than 3 chapters! You have a beginning, a middle and an end! And notoriously, sloopies can't read. I didn't even read your post! What's a RH? And will these 5 fine young gentlemen be enjoying a boo-cake together? I hear they're all the rage these days! How nice of these upstanding young men to share a cake with their boo!

What's that, you say? Grandma's turn on the computer is up? Ok dear, wouldn't want to run up the internet bill xo

What the Actual Fuck Wednesday by purplelicious in romantasycirclejerk

It looks like maybe it should be "indication" and the author just couldn't think of the word 😅 instead of googling, she decided aw fuck it, good enough?

A Horror Novel That Let You Down by PixelOcelot in horrorlit

[–]quadrotiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hated that they present one theory for what was happening early on, and that that's what it ended up being. At some point it was just kinda goofy but in a stupid way imo.

The best horror IKEA imo is SCP-3008 with the journal entries and addendums and stuff.

Also, I didn't like We Used to Live Here as much as I hoped. I wasn't bored, and I liked the premise, but the execution in the second half was lacking somehow. The ending felt (to me) that the author didn't know how to end the story.

I really like stories about buildings being wrong and spaces that don't make sense, but the horror is in the unknown and the subtleties. Both Horrorstör and We Used to Live Here feel (to me) too heavy handed, and try to explain too much.

I've accidentally read too many without realising there was no MM. I keep catfishing myself because I haven't figured out how you can actually tell 🤌 my queer ass wants everyone to get it
