OMG you just changed my whole Lemmy experience thank you. That was totally the problem. I had to hold control and select Undetermined and Englsh
I love clover. What kind of duck is she?
Nice big plot. Looks like a great place to work.
What an interesting plant. How did you find it? What does it taste like? Look at you with all your herbal tea, you’re Uncle Iroh!
Oh I forgot about Mice and Men! What did you think of that one?
I read it this year and enjoyed it so much. Isnt it great when you can finish a book and then watch the movie adaptation? I’m kinda new to Stephen king. I also read the first Dark Tower and Pet sematary. Which should I read next?
I didn’t watch the Paramount one. What was bad about it?
Sunk cost fallacy implies that the West is supporting Ukraine for profit. They are supporting Ukraine because it’s the right thing to do.
This is the kind of content I’m here for! I wish I could get in there and snuggle
This is some next level shit! Show us the garden beds too
Which books did you read? Which one currently? I love Steinbeck for his characters. They can seem so real. Sometimes in life you meet someone that’s just so unique, such a one-in-a-million type of person and those are the people you find in his novels, especially East of Eden and Cannery Row.
I always giggle thinking about the part in cannery row that starts something like “Henri the French painter wasn’t actually French. His name wasn’t really Henri either. And he didn’t paint”
That book has so much life in it with these little vignettes. I was in Santa Cruz recently and wished I could have made time to visit Salinas and Monterrey but we didn’t get to go. All I know of that area is how he describes it like paradise.
Tortilla Flats was pretty good too. Grapes of Wrath is obviously incredible but it’s kinda like Requiem for a Dream “that was fantastic. I never want to watch it again”
I feel that as an American that he lifts us up. That he puts my country on the map for literature on par with Dickens and Victor Hugo and Dostoevsky. I’m proud to have Steinbeck in my cultural heritage
I just hope the Harlem Globetrotters come back. JUST TAKE THE BALL! HES SPINNING IT ON HIS FINGER!!
wait sorry I got confused
