As a Reddit user who's recently moved to Lemmy - that's a fair point, you fucking moron
El Orfanato. Watched it as part of a foreign language film club at school when I was about 12/13. Over a few weeks we watched some Ghibli, some great Italian films and then this.
Nothing could have prepared me for this film, I'd never watched a horror movie before. I had nightmares for at least a month, and I'd actually be hesitant to watch it even now because it scared me so badl!
Has to be said though, was a great film and it had me choking up at the end.
I picked up an official translation of Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou so I'm gently enjoying that. The art is beautiful and the bittersweet nature of the manga is pretty beautiful honestly.
And also Go With the Clouds, North by Northwest because I love Aki Irie's art. It's set in Iceland but reminds me a little of Norway which makes me happy.
Glad to see you're enjoying Dungeon Meshi!
I've not read it to completion, but the YoRHa: Pearl Harbour Descent (depicting events leading up to NieR: Automata) is certainly very good. As an aside, the NieR: Automata light novels are excellent.
If you're in to your Yoko Taro there's also several manga entries in the Drakenguard universe, but I don't know these so well.
There's also a bunch of good adaptations of visual novels, like Danganropa and Steins;Gate, but I feel like I'm cheating a little by suggesting those!
Bloody fantastic game, I wish Mark Wood was permanently injury free so we could always pick him! Bowling at 95mph and blasting sixes for fun!
Woakes will probably end up as the unsung hero of this game, he is a major reason for this win. I just hope they consider giving Jonny a rest for the next game... so the ultimate Stokes Woakes Foakes combo is allowed to shine.
Seconded, great book with lots of comfy feels. The Count has to be one of the most charming and pleasant characters I've read.
I'm all for this, it would be a good way to get a bit of chat going each week which is important for keeping the sublem active!
When dialling in (I'm new to it), I like to try and maintain the same brew time. So I'll adjust grind size to try and account for this, although I've found that as I go through a bag I end up wanting a finer and finer grind. Does also depend on the roast of the coffee, so if a roast is darker than I expected I'll grind a little coarser as I believe darker roasts extract more easily.
Presses like Fitcarraldo, Charco, 404 etc. are responsible for introducing me to some of the best reads I've had in recent hears, from authors like Jon Fosse, Olga Tokarczuk, Helen McClory and Selva Almada. I was introduced to the women in translation month through these publishers and it's led to some of the most meaningful reads I've ever had. I therefore have a lot of love for many of these publishers and it's fantastic to see so many of them making such an impact.
