Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones “fake” is stupid because it’s the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it’s all fuckign carbon
I am absolutely obsessed with Dragon Age.
Please don't let me be obsessed alone.

It's boy band vs monsters tonight on The Robi Show

Tiktok is obsessed with trying to create their own Goncharov. I've seen several attempts at it, and they all fall flat. It's one of those things where it's so pathetic it's funny.
Also, the inherent failure comes from the fact that it's always someone trying to make money off it.
Meanwhile, a bunch of people are making videos about fake discourse as though they're in the omegaverse, and that's amazing. I love that.
So, I, uh, found these in the road in front of my house.
Just a bunch of unfired bullets just in the road.
I'm so confused right now
Hi I saw you asked for rants on ya books! I couldn't think of any I really hated but I wanted to talk anyway since you offered me a free chance to ramble! Okay so I read this book a while ago so I don't remember the details well but I remember that I complained about it after reading it. I did actually like the book but it's the first one I thought of to talk about so!
The pacing in the book is wild. I was interested in the book throughout but from what I remember most of it was low key and not a lot of action, then things pick way up right at the end. The book felt like it ended in the middle of the climax! Very few plot threads were resolved and the cliffhanger felt like it came out of nowhere.
I don't remember most of the book very well but I think the cliffhanger was the protagonist got kidnapped by a major figure who I think was introduced way late but I could be wrong about that? But he was planning to work with her to achieve both their goals, and he flew away with her on a dragon. And then she fell off. I can't remember if she did that deliberately or accidently. I think deliberately would have been out of character?
I really think it could have ended with them both on the dragon. That would have left the reader considering the character's situation and future and how they'll deal with this. I don't really remember the guys offer since it got overshadowed immediately after even though it should have been a big deal.
Her falling off the dragon did not leave me thinking about how that would be resolved, it left me thinking "what the fuck." I actually think it would have been a good way to start the sequel (which I know nothing about, I haven't read it, I don't even know if it's been published or not) since it would kick the story into action immediately. Placed at the end of the book, and just happening randomly, it's just bewildering instead of exciting.
Like I've said probably several times I don't remember the story well because it's been a really long time since I read it, but I remember complaining most of the plot threads aren't resolved. I don't think they felt set up to be resolved in a sequel, either. I think that and the pacing are what made it feel like the book ended during the climax of the story, plus the twist kidnapping? (Maybe she agreed to go, actually, I don't know.) and fall feeling like it came out of nowhere. I don't think the level of tension and the stakes were balanced throughout the story.
Maybe I'm being harsh on the book because most of what I remember about it was my complaints about it, because I did enjoy reading it (I only started having problems with it after I finished it, probably because the ending was wild but in a weird way instead of in a fun way)
I keep almost knowing what book this is, but then the title just flies away. Like the dragon at the end of this book, I guess.
If anyone recognizes this and knows the title, then for the love of God please let me know! This is going to drive me bonkers
whats crazy to me is ppl saying all x reader is badly written when i've read several x reader fics that blow published books out of the water. like idk what ur reading man ... but to generalize like that is fucking wild
Messy bi who dresses like a four-year-old despite being in my 30s
