Even when I lived in New Jersey it took me a pretty long time to see a hailstorm

Freezing rain and "wintry mix" were just disappointing because all I really wanted was a snow day

who the gently caress thinks these books are worth reading? is the reasoning literally just "more words = better than"?

Nah, someone posted a few fancartoons an Internet rando made for Latuff a while back, and a person who is very angry about football made this out of one, bought it for me, and forgot to turn the asterisk red to signify that it is a Shame Avatar. I actually like it and am keeping it :)

Bors would probably agree with the sentiment though

robin mckinley has some good stuff but she's YA

my gf likes nk jemisin but haven't read her yet

the riftwar books that wurts wrote with feist are good and have some politics but it's been years since i've read
