Hmm but a Warlock’s relationship with their Patron doesn’t involve worship (otherwise they’d be a Cleric), so can you really “convert” someone?

Thank you for sharing this article! Going through the longlist helped me pick out some of my next reads (first is All the Little Birds).

Any baby bottles for the baby bottlenoses? <3

I love this instance. Thank you so much guys, all this Meta stuff has been a bee in my bonnet. Forgive the pun.

Oh gotcha, thank you so much!! ❤️

 

As a teenager, I remember using my family's phone service to load creepypastas onto a tiny Kindle - a trickle of bad scary stories one after the other. I would get on Reddit where, sometimes sure, I would browse r/nosleep, but I was never completely satisfied by the content there. There were cheesy YouTube narrations. There was r/FearMe. We cut to today and I'm getting my horror fix through podcasts like Knifepoint Horror or rereading the House of Leaves (great book), but I still kind of miss the forum vibe of those community-contributed stories. What websites do the rest of you use to scare yourselves? What are your favorite spooky stories? How have your tastes changed and is there anything you guys miss that we might rebuild here in the Fediverse?

That would be a great community to revive here :)

 

It was hiding inside a copy of The Advancement of Learning and Novum Organum, by Francis Bacon. I’m not familiar with the contents honestly? Still. It’s heartwarming getting to see this very human thing and interesting to wonder why it was stuck here of all places.

I’ve seen a little bit of the instance on my front page(?) already, kudos! Honestly your aplomb to posting and trying to contribute - even recreating a favorite community - is very reassuring. I have high hopes for the Fediverse :)

Thank you so much for this guide! Hearing of his passing hurts and I hope his fans, friends, and family alike can find solace in the great works he has made. God knows this has finally convinced me to give Blood Meridian a try.

I love these audiobooks, and I absolutely can’t wait for Act IV. Just finished relistening to Sound & Fury for what must be the fifth time, lol.
