This is so interesting. Indeed my connection was slower, and I don’t need both VPNs, so thank you very much for your nice answer!
I had never thought about connecting the router to a VPN… That could be an entertaining experiment for another day.
Thank you! I had done it on purpose tho, I’m not having any problems.
I’ll remember the command just in case!
Wow, such a detailed answer! Definitely the Van Gogh one is above my budget, but the Penbbs seems like something I could gift myself one day hahah. Thank you!
The third one and the last one are gorgeous
OP, give us the recipe!
This is amazing! I have the Spanish moss jellyfish, like another user mentioned. But this is very cool, feels like a great gift idea!
Anything by Becky Chambers is guaranteed to make you smile, and I’d also like to mention the Murderbot Diaries, they are fantastic
The house in the cerulean sea
The Spellshop
The long way to a small, angry planet
They all make me feel warm and happy when everything else is too much!
At least you got something out of it hahahah
I’m very glad to read that some people enjoyed it hahaha. The opium part hits hard, to be honest
The magic system was great, and I really enjoyed the linguistics parts. However, the characters felt incredibly boring, bland, kinda stupid at times… For a world with magic, it felt just like ours, and in fact magic changes nothing in its history compared to ours.
The footnotes were the cherry on top of my dislike, turning it into loathe. I don’t like being told what to think and how to interpret things.
I felt that Kuang was breathing down my nape, silently watching me to make sure I got the point of that slavery, capitalism and colonialism are bad.

I disliked Poppy War too, but Babel sounded just like the kind of book I’d love. Now I’ve decided I won’t read more stuff from Kuang in a while, she’s not for me, at least right now.
THAT’S IT. That’s how I feel hahahha. Also the characters, good God, they were like flour.
Yes but as I mentioned in the post, I kept expecting it to improve, as the reviews said. Being honest, I didn’t dislike the very end, but the rest…
I did like the magic system, and in fact it was what drew me to the book at first.
Sadly, I found the characters bland and annoying. The footnotes were the cherry on top, as I feel they were extremely condescendent.
I’m very glad to hear that you enjoyed it tho! That’s what books are for!
Yeah but… It’s not the kind of food you bring to class. It’s messy
I just want to access the websites my darling Government has decided I can’t see
