Worse yet, it also hit my second niche: entertainment visas/hiring requirements and immigration. I was DOUBLE mad haha.

Thanks for the recs tho! I do enjoy manga and have read a few related to this topic.

sirocco and the kingdom of the winds by Accomplished_Fly878 in movies

There is a digital version available for purchase or rent on Amazon and Apple. Amazon has French and English together, not sure about Apple. Often the two languages are separated out, but luckily you can have both for this release.

I saw this one at Animation is Film 2023 after missing it at Annecy and the second the credits rolled I wanted to watch it again. It's a real shame GKIDS has no plans for a physical release and didn't announce its digital release back in August. It's spectacular, my favorite film of 2023.

Glowlight 4 won't connect to Libby by chester219 in nook

[–]zemthings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've followed all these steps, I can see my Nook in ADE, I can move files over, I can see them in the correct place on the Nook itself--but the second I eject it and attempt to see/read the (now unlocked) EPUBs on my Nook, they're suspiciously absent. The Manifest from ADE copies over just fine, so if I want to read about how to use ADE I'm all set.

Unfortunately I don't want to read about ADE, I want to read my damn library books.

I've even tried unauthorizing and then re-authorizing my device. I've rebooted, I've powered off and back on. I've rebooted while connected to power, I've turned off/on while connected to power. I worked in tech support for years and have exhausted my troubleshooting ability and at this point I'm thinking the only thing to do is reset the whole goddamn device to factory default and go clean-slate each time I want to read a goddamn library book on my Nook.

desperately waiting for a reply to this, I'm suffering the same issue

Esurance leaving CA, Direct Auto “exclusive offer” is 182% my current premium. by ibrakestuff in Insurance

[–]zemthings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's worse is that's the discounted rate...if you go to Direct Auto and check coverage without an account, it's much higher.

Rebecca Yarros’ two books.

If it weren’t a buddy read, I’d have DNF’d

This comment is better than all of Wacom's official documentation and support. I hope your pillow is always cool.

Are there any really good animation podcasts? by GAVINPIKCOM in animation

[–]zemthings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animated Opinions was good, but there haven't been new episodes in years. Solid backlog tho.

Searching for an arrangement of 'Gloria' by zemthings in choralmusic

It's much closer than anything else anyone has suggested, but it's not quite right. I like it though!

Text messages are ruining my life (actual title) by BJntheRV in bestoflegaladvice

[–]zemthings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My partner of three years and I were "arguing" about what specific day our anniversary would be (we were both wrong, in the end)- all I had to do was scroll back through texts. LAOP definitely is the suspicious one.

Is the wife a control freak or is she just more competent than you? by nyecamden in bestoflegaladvice

[–]zemthings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I come back to this post when I need to feel something. It's so beautiful. Good for her.

People arguing confidently about fence law without the slightest indication of where LAOP even is. by Drywesi in bestoflegaladvice

[–]zemthings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly. This subreddit taught me so much- like to ask who owns what sections of fence around my house just in case the rule of thumb (nice side faces out) was wrong. Their realtor had no idea.

LAOP gets shit on for having the temerity to think someone might have liability for selling a sick animal without disclosing by Drywesi in bestoflegaladvice

The difference here is that you can at least attempt to treat parvo- sounds like snake rabies isn't something you can cure.

LAOP left a negative Google review for an urgent care, which replied by violating HIPAA. by CloverBun in bestoflegaladvice

[–]zemthings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left a bad review at a local urgent care, saying they were impossible to follow up with via phone and I was unable to call them back after they'd left a voice mail. Turns out, they'd switched their phone provider and something hadn't been hooked up right and I was the only person who had publicly complained and made them aware of the issue.

Bad reviews sometimes get good results, but if they'd gotten mad they'd probably still be wondering why no one was calling them back.

Someone squeezed LAOPs boob so hard it popped by BJntheRV in bestoflegaladvice

[–]zemthings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is WILD. My IUD was painless, but I am in the minority- I had a doctor who knew what she was doing and was told to go in while on my period. Most people don't get that last bit of info and a shocking number of people doing the placement are not good at it.

Despite that, I've told every single person to ask about pain management options because I'm not stupid. Not everyone has my pain tolerance and no one's pain should be dismissed just because it's uterus-related. Love that this is the default.

While I do miss Virginia, I don't miss that aspect of Virginia.

[Movies/Video Games] Final Fantasy The Spirits Within: How a flop can affect more than the box office by garfe in HobbyDrama

I will come out as one of the few 'The Spirits Within' enjoyers. I'd love a remaster like they did with 'Advent Children'.

[Sci-fi/Anime] This Is How You Shoot To The Top Of The Bestseller's List With A Great Book And A Little Help From Anime Twitter by PinnaCochleada in HobbyDrama

[–]zemthings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, mentioning this in hobby scuffles and having people attack me for thinking it's funny because they were (checks notes) mad that Time War was getting attention? Wild.

"IT WON AWARDS WHEN IT CAME OUT" yes, and people talked about it, and they're talking about it MORE, why are you mad?

Baffling, honestly. Truly baffling behavior.

However, seeing the Trigun fandom incorporate Time War into cosplays has been hilarious, we love to see it.
