To jump onto your comment as a current Spanish learner, dreaming Spanish is pretty good. Language Transfer however is, in my opinion, the beat single tool for learning Spanish.
I think it is best coupled with some other methods, like dreaming Spanish, but I have learnt more from Language Transfer than anywhere else.
Obligatory never use Duolingo, it is fucking trash!
You know, there is going to be a surge in popularity of Amphoras any time soon. I have a pamphlet here somewhere…
There is a weekly thread on the books com about what everyone is reading you may want to check out.
I just started He Who Fights with Monsters recently and I’m already well into the second book. Good shit.
Is there a good adaptation of a game?
I haven’t but will check it out, thanks for the recommendation. I also didn’t know that about the MRI scans.
I will feed them at any opportunity and always have fresh water in my garden available for them (and the other birds).
Pigeons.
We domesticated them and then just discarded them once they were no longer “useful” to us. Now people see them as “sky rats” and are generally pretty shit towards them.
I think they are one of the best birds!
Great album you are listening to.
I feel the same way as well, I will always listen to albums / EPs and very rarely a playlist of random songs mashed together. In general I don’t really care for playlists at all.
Quite often there will be one song on an album I will skip though, usually the wanky ballad on a metal album for example, and I’m OK with that. But if an album has one or two great songs and the rest is shite I just won’t ever listen to those “great” songs really either.
I want the whole listening experience, not just a list of songs from all different artists.
Literally any callisthenics progression. If you are struggling on where to start then check out the hybrid callisthenics site which gives you a basic workout as well as progressions that you can do for each exercise.
In terms of stretching just start doing things to try and increase your flexibility where ever you may need it for example if you can’t touch your toes then maybe start working on that first as that is your most basic that everyone should be able to do easily!
Who cares about best or worst or whatever gate keeping quantifier you want to use.
The best way to learn a language is different for everyone, what ever works for people and helps them to progress as well as remember what they need to for that language is the best way for that person.
Maybe in the long term they might be at more of a disadvantage due to then having to learn the writing system after the fact but they also have the advantage over someone who doesn’t have that prior knowledge that maybe they do, even if they learnt it in romanji.
Surely ultimately the goal is being able to converse with people properly, how someone is able to gain and internalise this knowledge doesn’t matter at all.
Why does it annoy you how other people want to learn? Why does it matter to you at all if they want to solely learn the language using romanji, that is their choice.
I picked this album up purely on the art and the name of the album, not knowing of Refused at all. I was not disappointed!
I just finished Utopia yesterday and it was great! It is a shame that it ends after the second season however :(
Hey, don’t bring me into this! ;p
“What’s the retail on one of those!?”
“More than you can afford pal!”
Mate. You ain’t that big.
I don’t know what country you are from but you weigh in around 118kg which really isn’t that much in the grand scheme of things and unless you are going to go to a sketchy as fuck place you are going to struggle more with getting a pair of shoes to fit you than your weight.
Just look for a bouldering center near to you, where I’m from you don’t need to pay memberships or anything like that. Just find a place, probably book a time slot then rock up and try it for yourself.
Every place I have been supply shoes to rent but that may be more where you have an issue so may be worth asking ahead if they are able to supply you with ones your size. The shoes make a lot of difference to your experience so I recommend using them.
Every place I have been will supply you with a brief tutorial if you haven’t been there before with their rules and then you just knock yourself out and climb. Maybe they do have their own “culture” if you go regularly and start climbing with other people but this is nothing like martial arts. You don’t need a partner and that trust of training and sparring with someone you can just climb by yourself and have fun. I’ve been many times and bar the staff not spoken to anyone at all so if there is some kind of culture I never experienced it :D
Go give it a try man, it is fun!
I mean, you don’t have to buy those absurdly expensive single cards to have fun. I bought my first cards in 1997 and have been playing on and off since then. I have only ever bought pre made decks or booster packs, not once have I even been tempted to buy some stupidly expensive single card.
You can buy a starter pack that comes with two decks for you and a friend to learn to play with for like £15 - 20.
I won’t deny some of the shit it out of control expensive but you don’t need any of that trash to both learn to play and have fun with it!
Hiroshima or Osaka style?
Osaka seems to be more common in my experience but Hiroshima is better IMO. The first time I tried it at a place in Hiroshima is still up there with one of the best meals I have ever had!
This was my first thought. I love nearly all of Lovecrafts work but this is one of the few exceptions. Reanimator is just trash tier in comparison to everything else.
I want Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath!
There has been some recent drama relating to the usual knee jerk defederation of an entire instance based on one admins personal opinion but I don’t have any links.
The dog shit admins / moderators aside my main issue is placing so many communities on that one instance just re-centralises things again and that is very bad for the fediverse as a whole imo
