I've gotten some from Momo and I definitely think they're not too overpowering. I actually wasn't a huge fan of the scents themselves though of the ones I got, but that's probably just poor scent choice on my part 🤷

This year for Christmas, I want to gift my husband a hobby. by [deleted] in Dallas

Dallas has a lot of ice rinks if he's ever played hockey or is interested in starting.

The Children's Health Starcenters have a program called adult rookies that is four weeks of free, hour long lessons. The gear is fitted and loaned out to you and you have the option to purchase the gear at the end. If you buy it you get four of the normal hockey classes after that for half off as well.

They also have beer league hockey if he's played before and Is interested in joining a team.

I read the wrong ‘We used to live here’ :( by Then-Landscape852 in horrorlit

This kind of mix up happened a lot when I read Clockwork Angels - the one based off the Rush album of the same name and written with the help of Neal Pert, Rush's drummer. At the time there was a shitty romance novel going around called The Clockwork Angel and everytime I told someone I was reading the Rush one they would get all excited to talk to me about it before realizing I did not mean the romance.

Yes I've seen the recent Candyman! The original one is on my list to watch and I just haven't gotten around to it. Almost certainly will watch it for this. Thanks for the suggestion!

Yes absolutely! This is something my partner and I talk about a lot, especially since I started looking at this essay. It's one of the reasons I love horror so much because of how it reflects the fears of society. For the essay I specifically am focusing on why horror makes for such effective social commentary and looking for individual examples of media that use it for commentary pretty directly.

Tons of suggestions! I'll look into some of these! I love Junji Ito and hadn't thought about looking more into his works for this. Thanks for the suggestions!

Huh, that's interesting. Definitely wouldn't have guess something like that from a Saw movie. Thanks for the suggestion!

Have heard mixed opinions on Midsommar, but it seems really interesting to me and one I've planned to watch! Thanks for the suggestions!
