tek leaving is tragic, but honestly, it's been a long time coming. shed theory went on one of the most insane runs i've ever seen from late 2021-mid 2023 but since, it's just been nonstop drama. in the past five months they've beefed w/ their own fans over promo, been reduced to a punchline bc of a beef with a much more normie-friendly underground rapper (even if they seem to be winning the beef), played a "sold out" show at webster hall to abt 20 people (and became a twitter meme bc of it), couldn't sell out a $1 show in NYC, nextel had some weird ass allegations that i dont even remember, alienating their best internal producer (eliproper), there's prob other things i'm forgetting.
a lot of ppl are celebrating tek leaving bc they were fans of tek but, for moral/political rzns, refused to listen to him after he joined shed. i cant imagine thinking like that, but so many potential fans do. how many members actually need to be weighed down by the sam hyde thing at this point? it will always follow joeyy & facy (& probably laker) but marlon/woody/tek have so much potential to prosper if they weren't extremely unbookable/uncoverable due to the association. i saw on here that woody said he has never even met sam hyde. but it doesn't matter. if you've ever seen them at a festival/opening for another artist, you know how strange the vibe gets when they come on stage, how tense the crowd becomes. i hate to say this, but sometimes it's minstrel vibes. at the tek show in march, once shed showed up (including dugan wearing a durag) ppl started dipping. the music is so good but, let's be real, the vibes r treacherous. it is so hard to put ppl on for that rzn.
i was watching facy's live one day and he was saying how he never has gotten booked for a show. he makes no money off this shit. he has 8k monthly listeners. he sells features for like $50. i have been obsessively following music for 15 years and I am telling you it is so rare to stumble upon someone as talented as him, let alone someone with such a small following. i have never seen someone so committed to their craft churn out extremely catchy and consistent albums and see less success than your friend attempting to kickstart his local indie rock band. how can a group have at least five generational talents in it (marlon/joeyy/facy/woody/tek), hundreds of incredible songs, and be so washed? you go to their shows and see facy play like three songs, woody play three songs, marlon play four songs, and then have henry mosto grabbing the mic out of everyone's hands like he's doing karaoke at his birthday for the whole set. imagine a full woody set. imagine if facy toured night school, which is legitimately one of the most potent albums i have ever heard. it will never happen. there r too many members to keep happy. the budget is spread way too thin.
obviously nextel is a big part of the problem. if they fired him that would be great. but is it that simple? after all that's gone down, how has he not been fired yet? what is he doing for shed that they couldn't do for themselves? booking tours? lyrical lemonade connection? phreshboyswag collabs? i dont think they need nextel for that. it's more likely that nextel is savvy enough to figure out how to sink his teeth in and has made it impossible to get rid of him. yeat had to pay him 100 bands to dip. where the fuck are shed gonna get 100 bands from? i know they have trust funds but like...if i was their dad i would not throw down for that. plus, yeat had other places to go. no way zack bia signs shed (thank god)
i'm starting to think they should blow it all up. they should keep collaborating but each of them should focus on building something fresh. they shouldn't feel obligated to play shows where everyone cedes the floor to the less talented members. they shouldn't be relegated to joeyy's shadow or tied to nextel's antics. that way ppl will appreciate their golden era for what it is, they will build an unimpeachable legacy once new generations figure out how forward-thinking their music is bc, in like ten years, the political landscape in which they existed will be irrelevant, and that is the main thing bringing them down. otherwise it will just get more embarrassing, their legacy will get more tainted, the vibes will get more sour, and it will get harder to be a fan.
maybe i'm tripping idk. tek shit make me sad.

This new show everyone’s talking about has twisted a nerve. It rely’s on a seriously convenient plot with cartoonish caricatures that make no sense whatsoever. Why does Mr. House think there’s “a lot of earnings to be made” in a post apocalypse? Why does Maximus FAIL the entire show, but get promoted at every turn? Cooper is supposed to be some cold-blooded mother fucker that kills anything in his way, but REFUSES to kill a fellow mc when they are on screen.
Yea I’m talking about the Fallout show n’ those aren’t even the worst parts. As a Communist, these caricatures of Communism as well as Capitalism are just goofy. Of course the “Communist” in the form of Moldaver (who we aren’t told as to how they specifically are 200+ years old) is not even a Communist, at least she deny’s it. And is shown to just have a personal vendetta against Cooper’s wife on top of being the leader of a raider group/cult whose actions aren’t particularly good karma.
Communism, or more relevant to the economy Communism uses, Socialism. Is about worker owned means of production. Similar to how a Capitalist uses private property. A Communist/Socialist believes the businesses, and state should be publicly owned by the workers. It’s not a 200+ year long vendetta because some guy’s wife bought out your CAPITALIST business that you work for. It being used in the show is just red scare bullshit which the show buy’s into by making the not Communist (but definitely implied to somehow be one with no rhetoric indicating such) Moldaver a Raider.
Unfortunately the caricature of Capitalism is worse. To start off lets go with a good example the show does give. Cold Fusion. It makes complete sense Vault-Tek, or any other Capitalist entity, would buy out this technology because “free” energy would mean no one could get their power shut off by (real world example) the Entergy company for not paying their bill. Cold Fusion would end that in theory. A fiduciary responsibility in collaboration with investors to prevent that if you will. I don’t even think the show meant to have a half truthful idea about it, that seems like pure accident. The show was made by Amazon after all. I doubt these very ideas weren’t on purpose.
As to Vault-Tek planning to drop the bomb which is the much, much worse example. There is multiple reasons given at the meeting where it all takes place: “Earnings/profit, eliminate competition, factions”. None of them make sense. Nuking the world nukes the economy & the people who work/buy to keep it running. Where’s the profit?
They want to eliminate competition, but are telling all of their known competitors their plans. They’re telling a lady that wants to build robots that delivers milk to the door their plans on nuking the goddamn world.
What about the Factions? Well I don’t really get it because Shady Sands was started by Vault 15 n’ they got nuked like the rest because Hank’s wife left. There’s not an inkling of understanding given as to why 1. Vault-Tek has the ludicrous idea that they will “end all factions”, and 2. Vault-Tek destroys their own factions that they’ve created aside from the ones they gave to their competitors I guess? Nice one, just create more factions you have to destroy later, wtf?
Capitalism is about the economy being centered around private property. Land rights/deeds. Extracting capital from the workforce that is working on private land owned by a capitalist. None of this makes sense in the motivation for capitalist businesses which is profit. It’s not a cabal of illuminati individuals trying to nuke the fucking world for “power”? In Capitalism money is power there is no point in essentially nuking your power away because there’s people you don’t like.
Character bullshit includes:
Lucy going from wasteland badass, back to aloof girl looking for her dad, back to badass, back to aloof. No real consistency imo. We need to see her go from unadapted to adapted, not flowing between both at random.
Maximus, and everyone hating him. Him stating that he wanted Dane (his only friend) to get hurt the way he did. Him impersonating a knight, stealing a suit of power armor, conspiring to kill a squire. None of that matters. He’s promoted to knight at the end with no consequences. Vault 4 even lets him leave with their only source of power, only getting it back because of Lucy. (Dane even acts like Maximus was the one that did it after the whole interrogation scene, and we hear nothing until the end about how Dane did it to himself. I guess Dane forgot about his own self-inflicted wound?)
Cooper is just like a complete Gary Stue. I prefer his flashbacks when he actually has a sort of character. The flash backs also don’t have any awful yodeling which is a plus.
Norm should be dead if Bud weren’t completely fucking useless. Just lock him up not with all the cryogenically frozen people you’re protecting.
Hank is a fucking anti-character. He’s in two scenes. The very beginning, and the very end. Lucy doesn’t even have any flashbacks of him.
Almost every other character feels like bullshit sitcom punchlines, or setting up the punchlines. We got the cousin fucker, chicken fucker, the awkward guy that’s never went a few miles over a hill. That old lady with the STUPID fucking meat grinder prosthetic foot. It’s the exact same problem that The Outer Worlds (video game) has. When you boil everything down to some edgy slapstick comedy gig you cheapen all your characters; nothing seems even possible in the already fictional world which is a failure on the world building front.
Music:
The music is abysmal. There’s hardly any ambient music. It’s all jazzy shit from the games which ruins a lot of the show’s tones. The worst example is probably Lucy walking in on a dead ass dead family with their baby. They killed themselves so they didn’t have to experience the Great-War. It’s a hard scene, and we could get invested in the hard tone of this scene if it wasn’t offset by juke n’ jive music.
Same with the Raider’s killing people Lucy has grown up with, was raised by, and even loves. Nope more 50’s music. The radio only works in the games because you can turn it on/off at any point in time. You the player are kinda given an element in shaping the tone for your character. Imo a fallout show/movie needs only ambience. Maybe a radio or jukebox in the background albeit limited?
The Plot:
It’s apparently about looking for Lucy’s dad, but just like the Bethesda games they just do that to get the character out of the vault; like the water chip in Fo1, or GECK in Fo2. And just like the Bethesda games it’s a problem because of the characters agency. Probably more so because we can’t sit here n’ be like “well Lucy doesn’t care about their dad” because this isn’t an RPG where you make the character. This is a pre-established character. It fucks up the player agency with all of the side stuff you’re doing when in both the show, Fo3, and Fo4 priority #1 should be finding your fathechild.
It turns into this guy Wilzig’s head because he’s got the cold fusion in his neck. And Cooper is there because of a bounty. Knight Titus (not even worth mentioning) conveniently lands almost right where Wilzig was because “he wants to shoot stuff” then dies.
There’s a lot of conveniences. Like Lucy finding Wilzig twice, and all of the mc’s arriving in Filly around the same time. Wilzig gets the meat grinder prosthetic then promptly obviously dies, a while later, after taking cyanide?
Then the head becomes the mcguffin which is tossed around between Lucy, to Maximus, and Thaddeus (other brotherhood guy) then back to Lucy at the plot’s convenience.
I mean that was it up until the end. Cold Fusion gets activated, and the big reveals happened like the show had much drama to begin with. There’s some here, and there, but it really gets overshadowed by the astronomical attempts at comedy the show makes.
Theme:
The theme is mostly based on the zany Fallout 4, and 76. Which I don’t have much to say other than I don’t like it opposed to the grittiness of every game before them.
The theme of Fallout being the rhetorical “fallout” of humanity with ourselves is very lost, but this is nowhere near a new thing. I hate to see a desolate wasteland be made “fun” rather than asking the relevant questions for our characters, or more importantly ourselves in order to ever prevent something like a Nuclear Holocaust from ever taking place.
TL;DR:
The show doesn’t match up with itself much less the core material. It simply doesn’t know what it wants to be or do. At points it feels like a super hero show. Then it wants to do mystery, and drama which comes off as a poorly written soap opera. Or it’ll usually cash out to be this overly edgy sitcom.

🪸 This ancient underwater *humanoid species 🪸 is shrouded by mistery, a cataclismic event having them fall from a hi-tek society to a primitive one, and later followed by an arduous climb up the ladder of history, with the unfortunate habit of finding itself (or better, some of its unlucky people) transported to *other dimensions 🌌>! (usually geopol minecraft servers)!<, where they will try their best to carve themselves a little slice of **aztec-inspired home.
Blue skin and dreadlocks, long fins (not a mermaid's tail!), magenta gills, and a colorful assortment of little decorative critters roaming around their hair and clothes, are the hallmarks of this species, able to breathe both in water and air, although preferring the former.
With a fully developed and in-depth biology, culture, language and history, there is always something new to learn about us! 🪬 To join the species, one must pass a brief test (mainly to prove of having browsed the wiki section of the discord and understanding the rules), and after a probationary period to assess if our vibes mesh well, one will be granted the citizen role! But much can be done before that even happens!
A personalized skin and a pair of "fins and gills" (enchanted armor) is provided to all those who pass the test, to get them started in their new underwater life! ⚒️ Many jobs are available in the budding city, from miner to farmer to gatherer to brewer, and more! ⚒️ The server we are currently on, has a ton of secret brewing recipes, which one needs to discover to brew.

^{Although formal Urdu does show Shae, it is never spoken in by Urdu speakers in any natural/normal setting Saying "Koi Khaanay Waali Shae Hi Laa Do" is actually wrong, or going to a shop and "Yey Kya Shai Hai" is also wrong Urdu also does not even have a proper plural for Shae instead the Arabic original "Ashiiyaa" is used, which is even more awkward and rare than Shae for Urdu speakers. So please do not call it an Urdu word. Urdu only really uses Cheez/Cheeze'n/Cheezo'n Punjabis always use Shae naturally, rurally and in any context}

Neredeyse beş yıl önce 2018-2019 döneminde mezun oldum. İki farklı özel okula gittim. Edindiğim arkadaşlarımı sevsem bile genel olarak ortamdam nefret ettim. Genel olarak toksik olması ve her zaman bir drama olması. Erkekler, her konuda sidik yarıştırırken, kızların her konunun dedikodusunu yapardı. Bundan özellikle 11. ve 12. Sınıflarda sinirime dokunan bir şeydi.
İtiraf ederim ki, 9 ve 10. Sınıfta dramaların bazılarını ben başlattım çünkü tam bir edgelord'un tekiydim. O günkü hallerime bakıp utanıyorum. Lise hayatımın kalanı boyunca yaptığım her şeye pişman oldum. Zaten 9 ve 10. sınıftaki Ben ve 11 ve 12. sınıftaki ben çok farklı insanlardı.
Gittiğim Liserlerde de, farklı kültürlerden gelen insanlarla okudum. Hiç bir zaman tam olarak onların bir parçası olamadım, olamayacağımı da biliyordum. 9 ve 10. sınıftaki öğrencilerin çoğu, zengin, akademisyen çocuklarıydı. 11 ve 12. sınıfta sonradan zengin olan ailelerin çocukları ile okudum.
Aynı zamanda Lisenin pratik olarak bir hapishane olması da işleri kolaylaştırmıyor. Eve dönene kadar 8 saat, bazen daha fazla süre boyunca aynı sınıf denilen hücrede sevmediğin ve/veya seni sevmeyen insanlarla birlikte kapana kısılmak berbat bir deneyim. Eve gittikten sonra da işin bitmiyor, üstüne üstlük ekstradan ödev yapman gerekiyor.
Lise, kendi eylemlerim yüzünden de psikolojik olarak beni mahvetti ve Lise hayatıma nostaljik olarak bakmıyorum. Bu sub'ın Lise mezunlarına soru: böyle düşünen tek kişi ben miyim?
Edit: Sonradan Zengin olan ailelerin çocuklarına üstten falan bakmıyorum, bazı insanlar nedense o hissiyatı almışlar. Hatta, seviniyorum, niye fakir zengin oldu diye üzüleyim ki?

Genre horror bagi saya adalah salah satu pop culture indonesia yang mendunia banyak produk produk pop culture dari dari genre ini. Contoh karya pop culture yang terkenal bagi saya DredOut dan Film "Siksa Kubur"
Game horor Indonesia "DreadOut" menarik perhatian dengan menyajikan pengalaman horor yang unik berdasarkan mitologi dan budaya lokal. Dengan memadukan elemen-elemen horor barat dan tradisi lokal, permainan ini berhasil menciptakan atmosfer yang mencekam bagi para pemainnya.
Di sisi lain, film "Siksa Kubur" menjadi representasi lain dari perkembangan genre horor dalam industri film Indonesia. Dengan plot yang menggabungkan horor, misteri, dan drama psikologis, film ini memperlihatkan pendekatan yang lebih kompleks dalam penyampaian cerita horor. "Siksa Kubur" memberikan sorotan pada ketegangan antara dunia nyata dan dunia gaib, serta menggali konflik-konflik emosional yang mendalam di antara karakter-karakternya.
Kehadiran karya-karya seperti "DreadOut" dan "Siksa Kubur" tidak hanya menyokong pertumbuhan genre horor di Indonesia, tetapi juga menunjukkan potensi kreativitas dan keberagaman dalam menghadirkan kisah-kisah seram yang menghibur dan menghantui penonton dan pemainnya.

The Omen on Letterboxd
Watched 4/6/24 Challenege started 5/18/23
Right off the bat you can tell one thing about these people, particularly the father... they are really bad parents. I mean how on earth do you just take someone's word about your baby dying and then swap it with another baby, pretending it's the same? That's nuts! Then your you let a 3 year old wander off at a park? What is wrong with these people? Why on earth would you let a strange woman and a strange dog CONTINUE to watch your kid AFTER they prove they are unreliable and dangerous?
Ok, character critiques and lite-jokey-spoilers aside, this is a decent flick. It takes a while to warm up, but once it does it feels compelling enough.
I enjoy the "my kid is the anti-christ" narative and the "horrible things just happen around me" bits. Though it can be a bit silly at times.
This film can feel pretty dated, but it also helps to make it feel unique. It's melodramatic and takes itself very seriously. Which helps with the story, the mythos, the drama... but it doesn't allow there to be much fun. And all exposition and no fun makes Damien a dull boy...
Anyways the last half of this film is worth a watch if you can make it through the first half though it never reaches truly great heights.
A 3 out of 5.
As a side note, the 'dog of the devil' or whatever, is really cute and totally harmless looking. (Much of the time.) What a good boy. Plus... Gregory Peck!

Just kinda thinking about the show in regards to 76. I know there's alot of drama about how vault-tec/hank might have bombed shady sands. I see alot of discourse on how they got nukes, etc.
One thing though I think alot of people forget, is us vault 76 dwellers control a bunch of nuclear silos in WV because that was our overseers "mission" to secure them. Kinda makes you wonder.
Do we establish a "vault-tec" main base of sorts eventually and control the nuclear stockpile for vault tek? I know our overseer seems nice enough, but you gotta remember. These vault tek people were chosen for a reason, and being completely honest isn't exactly it.
Obviously, I don't really know, but we're one of the first vaults to open and secure the wasteland, secure nukes, secure gold. I think our mission is a lot more important than we really realize.

Aku lagi nyari inspirasi buat bikin poster-poster kata-kata pepatah/inspiratif/quotes, rencananya mau dipasang di sekolahku untuk memperkaya teks. Target utamaku Bahasa Madura sama Bahasa Jawa, tapi kalo ada yang mau berbagi juga dipersilakan (sama terjemahan dan makna Bahasa Indonesianya ya :D)
Contoh paling gampang:
Tong kosong nyaring bunyinya = Orang yang tidak berilmu (kosong) itu yang bicaranya paling banyak (nyaring)

Hi komodos, gw mau nanya tapi sebelumnya gw minta maaf klo ada salah kata karena ini agak politis dan juga yang ada di benak gw:
Jadi setelah gw nonton Park and Recreation, dan juga melihat meningkatnya postingan Anti-Pemerintahan di sosmed (termasuk disini) gw penasaran...
Apakah Netizen/Orang Indonesia seperti ini gk sadar bahwa mereka Libertarian?
Pasti ada aja Netizen/Orang Indonesia yang berpikiran:

1. Ingin meminimalisir peran Pemerintah dalam Masyarakat, (Contoh: Ngapain ada Bansos, BOS, dan Subsidi klo endingnya gak tepat sasaran malah disalahgunain oleh penjabat).
   
2. Menjunjung Pasar Bebas dan Kapitalisme tanpa intervensi dari pemerintah, (Contoh: Katakan Tidak kepada Hilirisasi dan TKDN, Pemerintah tidak boleh ikut campur).
   
3. Anti banget dengan yang namanya Pajak, (Contoh: Ngapain bayar pajak klo endingnya malah dikorupsi).
   
4. Berpikir bahwa Perusahaan Swasta lebih baik dari Perusahaan BUMN dan menginginkan BUMN diprivatisasi.
   
5. Berpikir bahwa Jaminan Kesehatan semacam BPJS itu tidak berguna karena selalu defisit, antre lama, dll. lebih baik Jaminan Kesehatan yg Swasta punya.
   

Lima Point diatas itulah yang gw perhatiin selalu keluar dari mulut Netizen/Orang Indonesia terutama yg sudut pandangnya government bad / anti-pemerintah dan juga cocok dengan karakteristik Libertarian yaitu:

1. Individual > Komunal
   
2. Pasar Bebas > Pasar yang Diregulasi
   
3. Kebebasanku > Kepentingan Sesama
   
4. Katakan tidak pada pemerintah (regulasi, pajak, dsb)
   

Dan ini pertanyaan gw:

1. Bagaimana Pendapat komodos tentang Libertarianisme?
   
2. Adakah Komodos yang berpikir seperti point2 diatas sehingga cocok disebut sebagai seorang Libertarian?
   

Disclaimer:
Gw bukan Libertarian (Apalagi buzzer, amit2), gw cuma warga biasa (netral) yang masih percaya sistem pemerintahan masih berjalan mulus meskipun ada drama yang panas.
Gw penasaran sama sistem Libertarian ini karena entah kenapa ngeliat Netizen/Orang Indonesia yang anti banget sama pemerintahan (Beda sama kritik, apalagi yg ngebangun) itu karakteristiknya hampir mirip sama Libertarian ini, apalagi yg sering ngumbar data sesat dan kata2 yg gw enek ky: Wakanda, Konoha, SDM Rendah, IQ78 etc.
Also BPJS is blessing.
Terima Kasih

Berikut adalah beberapa tips untuk public speaking yang bisa membantu Anda tampil lebih percaya diri dan efektif di depan publik:

1. Persiapkan Materi Anda dengan Bai: Ketika Anda memberikan pidato atau presentasi, pastikan Anda mempersiapkan materi Anda dengan baik. Ketahui topik yang akan Anda bicarakan, susunlah poin-poin utama, dan siapkan contoh atau ilustrasi yang mendukung.

​

1. Latihan Berulang-ulang: Latihan adalah kunci untuk menjadi lebih percaya diri saat berbicara di depan umum. Latihlah presentasi Anda secara berulang-ulang, baik secara verbal maupun mental. Cobalah berlatih di depan cermin atau dengan merekam diri sendiri untuk menilai ekspresi tubuh dan intonasi suara Anda.

​

1. Ketahui Audiens Anda: Usahakan untuk memahami siapa audiens Anda dan apa yang mereka harapkan dari presentasi Anda. Penyesuaian konten dan gaya berbicara Anda dengan audiens dapat membuat Anda lebih terhubung dan efektif dalam menyampaikan pesan.

​

1. Gunakan Bahasa Tubuh yang Positif: Bahasa tubuh Anda dapat memengaruhi cara Anda disampaikan dan diterima oleh audiens. Usahakan untuk menggunakan gerakan tubuh yang mendukung dan menunjukkan kepercayaan diri, seperti postur tubuh yang tegak, kontak mata, dan senyum.

​

1. Berbicara dengan Jelas dan Tenang: Cobalah untuk berbicara dengan jelas dan tenang. Kendalikan laju bicara Anda, hindari mengumbar kata-kata, dan beri penekanan pada kata-kata kunci. Juga, jangan takut untuk menggunakan jeda yang sesuai untuk memberikan penekanan dan membuat audiens mengikuti.

​

1. Gunakan Visual Aids dengan Bijak: Jika Anda menggunakan visual aids seperti slide PowerPoint, pastikan mereka mendukung presentasi Anda tanpa mengalihkan perhatian dari Anda sebagai pembicara. Gunakan gambar, grafik, atau diagram dengan sedikit teks dan pastikan mereka relevan dengan pesan Anda.

​

1. Jangan Takut dengan Keterlibatan Audiens: Membuat keterlibatan dengan audiens dapat membuat presentasi Anda lebih menarik dan interaktif. Ajukan pertanyaan, undang tanggapan, atau bahkan lakukan aktivitas pendukung yang melibatkan audiens.

Matagal akong naging kapatid, mahigit 2 dekada. Pero kung isasama yung unang pakikinig ko kay soriano sa channel 13, mahigit 3 dekada na. Nagbabasa na rin ako ng bible nung bago ko sya mapakinggan. Nahikayat nya ako kasi parang si Pablo ang dating nya sa akin. Bata pa kasi ako noon, mapaniwalaiin.
Magaling ang showmanship ni soriano. Pati ang pag gamit nya ng psychology. Alam nyang mag manipulate ng damdamin. Isa ito sa strength noon ng mcgi.
Bagong kapatid palang ako, marami na akong nararamdamang di tama. Gaya ng ibang aral na wala sa doktrina. Tulad ng sa pag aasawa. Kasi gusto kong magkapamilya. Kahit yung panonood ng sine. Harmless past time, pero sabi ng worker, eh "may nag ses3x doon sa sine" kaya di pwede (na wierdohan nga ako dito). Si razon, napaka suplado nyan, may kinonsulta ako sa kanya noon, parang wala syang ganang kausap ako. Marami pa di ko na iisaisahin.
Tiniis ko lahat lahat yan kasi matuto daw na magpadaya. Na trap na ako kasi maiimpierno na pag lumabas. Point of no return ako that time.
So heto para sa akin ang 3 unorthodox way they sustain the group:

• Public drama
• Play with emotions
• Its always our fault (or shortcomings)
  (Di ko na sinama yung paggamit sa fear of God kasi common na yun)
  

Sample ng "Public drama": Babayaran ni soriano ang utang ng iba. Broadcasted yan sa buong iglesia. Sounds simple pero ang laki ng balik nyan sa kanila. Napaka gandang PR narative para maestablish ang humanity ni soriano.
Sample ng "Playing with your emotions": The way they project soriano ay sya lagi ang pagod, sya lagi ang nag aabono. Nagagamit nila ito para konsensyahin ka na magbigay or makipag ubusan din. Kasi nga, mas mahalaga daw sya kaysa sa magulang natin at utang natin ang ating kaligtasan sa mga pag papagal nya.
Sample ng "Its always our fault": Kahit ibigay mo na lahat ng nasa iyo or nakipag ubusan ka na, ang report nila kulang pa rin. Si soriano pa rin ang nag abono. Tayo pa rin ang may pagkukulang. Si soriano at razon pa rin ang bida. Bawi na lang tayo next time. And the cycle continues.
May iba pang sample ang mga yan, hahaba lang. Pero ang bottomline ng lahat ng yan ay PERA. Yup, convertible yan sa pera at alam nyo na ang mechanics nun.
Nung namatay si soriano, nawala na ang pinakamalakas na gasligther. Since marami na akong tanong at duda, nag punta ako dito sa reddit and tried to challenge the arguments ng mga nandito (Since that time ang paniniwala ko, mcgi ang totoo). It turns out, walang bisa ang natutunan ko kay soriano. Madaling magiba. Kaya siguro ayaw sumagot ni razon. Ang conclusion, nakulto nga tayo.

Ini berawal dari obsesi aku yang luar biasa tinggi dengan cerita-cerita epos (bayangin kayak Mahabharata, Ramayana, Illiad, Odysseus, Paradise Lost, War and Peace) yang punya skala besar dan tentang perjuangan karakter kepahlawanan protagonis di dunia yang cukup kompleks, dengan intrik politik, drama, action, soundtrack, worldbuilding yang luar biasa megah. Semua ini berawal dari aku nonton film Dune part two awal Maret kemarin yang membuat aku terkesima dengan pengalaman sinematik dan seberapa besarnya dunia cerita yang membuat aku tenggelam didalamnya, terus lanjut dengan nonton film epik Lawrence of Arabia, Akira, LOTR, Gladiator dan hal itu membuat aku terobsesi untuk cari inspirasi cerita sejarah Indonesia yang dimana tokoh-tokoh pahlawannya punya kepribadian dan karakter yang kompleks dan dunia nya bisa jadi worldbuilding yang luar biasa megah.
Yang baru muncul di kepala ku adalah biopik Pangeran Diponegoro atau Gajah Mada yang bisa jadi film biopik yang potensial banget dibuat bagus karena kepribadian mereka yang sebenarnya kompleks dan motif mereka yang terkadang abu-abu dan lebih dari sekadar label "Pahlawan Nasional" yang terlalu diglorifikasi berlebihan, itu pun juga peristiwa sepanjang hidup mereka cukup besar, aku pikir scene di film mereka bakal butuh pemain extra yang banyak atau set bangunan yang mahal untuk capture epic feeling nya, belum juga scene perangnya.
Tapi menurut kalian, apa aja peristiwa atau cerita pahlawan Indonesia yang potensi banget jadi film epik terbaik Indonesia? Saran ku sebelum abad 20, tapi kalau mau nyediain contoh abad 20 ya gapapa juga sih.

Killers of the Flower Moon on Letterboxd
Watched 10/20/23 Challenge started 5/18/23
Alright! Scorcese historical drama I'm in and ready! I'm a big fan of both of these things. Scorsese... history.. this is going to be awesome! ...
I'm going to say this right off the bat, as I don't want this to come across as a negative review... This film is good. It is really good even. It is important. It is a rare piece of history, writing and filmography that serves to shed light, and hopefully empower and represent otherwise stereotyped, marginalized and misrepresented minorities.
However... this film does not go far enough. It is too sympathetic to one side of narative, and it relies too heavily on a well informed audience, which most of the audience is not, and ultimately fails to deliver emotionally impactful connection.
Warning here, I will talk about light spoliers.
I'm going to talk alot about the things I don't like in this film, and I really don't want others to think I hate this movie. I don't. I'm stating these things because I hoped, and continue to hope as a society, as consumers, filmakers and rando film goers, that we can continue to grow a developed understanding of our history as a nation, and our diversity as a culture and a people. And continue to push for more understanding and inclusion of first nations, and seek a revitalization of native American cultures and identity. (Cultures that have been attacked, destroyed and erroded for centuries.)
I really enjoyed the newsreely begining, but I believe they should've pushed this further. Juxtapose America in the 1920s with Osage Country in the 1920s. Show it early, often, and then thread the needle from there. It felt introduced and dissolved only making it more a "this is now" kind of feel.
The story is a bit frustrating, as it skips along. It makes the sudden appearance and disappearance of many characters feel too married to the plot. "Oh we're only introducing them because they are going to die" kind of thing.
Instead of being focused on mostly two white dudes, this film should've stood more prominently on both pillars of the story. Both the "killers" and "The Flower Moon", so to speak. The Osage nation needs a more prominent voice. The scene in the longhouse, is what I felt was a pivotal moment in the film, and it should've held more tension than it did. What started as a harrowing, passionate plee for truth and justice by the tribe, instead turned into a simple rousing victory for William Hale. The tension just doesn't exist in the film, and it feels strange.
And It should be uncomfortable. The two faced nature of it all. Talk about the FORCED marriage of the two cultures. I mean the Osage couldn't even access their own finances without financial guardianship. Why is this not really talked about?
Anyways, enough about representation, history, etc.
Onto the a film critique...
Overall, this is a terrifically made film. The sets, the scope, the acting, its all tremendous. It is a crazy large undertaking and it all comes together masterfully. Scorsese is really flexing his muscle here and proving he still has the chops to make a stellar picture. (Especially when blowing up that house. What a scene!)
Also the acting is really superb here. Yes, Leo is good, but he always is. Robert Deniro is simply astounding as William Halle and he probably won't get as much credit as he deserves for carrying much of this film. Lilly Gladstone is a revelation in her role as Mollie Burkhart. She turns in one of the best performances I've seen all year and her story is completely heart breaking.
For the sound, I have some gripes. It's too quiet, and it feels too intentionally so. Much of the audio is muffled, muted and layered under a shell shocked sound of ringing tinnitus that drove me crazy. Maybe its my fault for noticing this? Maybe it's just my hearing going? But I don't think so. It frustrated me.
I really enjoyed the music though, and that opening song is a freaking banger.
There is alot that can be said here, but I think I've already said enough. (Too much.)
Don't let my critique dissuade you from watching this quality film. Watch it. Just be ready for it. It is long, but in my opinion the length didn't negatively affect the picture. (I wish it were longer.) The story is disturbing and this can be a fairly unpleasant movie to watch at times. The main characters outside of Molly Burkhart are pretty hard to sympathize with and are pretty solidly detestable.
All in all though, this is quality film by a legendary director with a stellar cast. You can do much, much worse on an open afternoon. (And I mean all afternoon...)
A 4 out of 5.

Emang sih in theory terjemahan official itu biasanya lebih bagus dari unofficial. Ambil contoh dulu ada terjemahan unofficial novel Cry Even Better if You Beg bahasa inggris (udah di takedown, padhal itu dulu lengkap ada audio drama segala) rupanya di unofficial versionnya ada indikasi kalo translatenya itu lebih ngikut hati sehingga sudah menjurus ke fan TL. Itu jg tuh yang bikin gua langsung ke versi aslinya di novel ini.
Nah dari pengalaman di atas, gua ngebanding2in translate novel My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone official di Radish (ada juga di Tapas tapi kena region block) sama yang unofficial. Padahal yang unofficial itu MTL (keknya pake MTL google deh ini sama kurang proofread aja) dan banyak translate yang salah, cmn gatau kenapa ada aspek yang gua lebih prefer unofficialnya. Salah satunya adalah cara Kallen manggil Kanna. Di official dirubah dari yang dia suka manggil sister jadi ke nama asli dia (ini gua liatnya di chapter 154-156 gitu ya), sedangkan yang unofficial ttp dibikin dia manggil Kanna itu "sister". Gua pribadi lebih setuju kalo Kallen manggil Kanna "sister" daripada Kanna, karena disini konteksnya si Kallen itu udh tergila2 yandere obsesi parah sama Kanna sampe2 udh kayak muja dia, manggil Kanna pake nama aslinya itu rasanya ga nyambung. Masih nyambung kalo Orsini manggil Kanna pake nama aslinya karena Orsini sendiri tsundere akut yang susah mau ngakuin perasaan dia. Gua kurang paham kenapa dirubah panggilan nya, mungkin editor localization nya pengen soften the blow or smt. Yang jelas, gua ga setuju sama pilihan mereka.
Nah apakah ada pengalaman yang mirip sama gua?
Btw MTL google udh bagus ya skrg. Ada yang tau MTL bagus yang mana selain google buat translate Korean? Berbayar pun (asal ga mahal2 banget) jg gpp.

Langsung aja yes - gue sekarang liat kebanyakan orang orang kita itu lucu (abis ngedenger ama ngeliat kisah teman dan beberapa kenalan gue)
Lucu nya nape? Ya karena di dumay ama irl tereak tereak 'mental health awareness' yet kebanyakan dari mereka ini menganggap wajar toxic behaviour
Ini gue pake dari kisah beberapa kenalan ama temen gue (2 contoh dulu) , mungkin ada yang pernah ngalamin / ngeliat dengan mata kepala sendiri irl juga kayak gue

1. people pleasing : ada banyak kenalan gue yang suka dinasehatin 'jangan mau jadi people pleaser' - ya begitu kenalan gue beneran lebih sibuk ama keluarga dan kehidupannya sendiri dan beberapa orang 'nolak kemauan si orang lain' (in this case yang gue liat : arranged marriage - abang ato mbaknya udah berumur - akhirnya 'dijodohin' lah ke kenalan gue) : kikipelit, individualis, egoist etc....funny thing pas dibalikin omongan mereka, mereka ngomongnya 'suka gak suka budaya timur itu budaya nyenengin orang-mau gak mau mesti ada salah satu pihak yang mesti turutin maunya suatu pihak'......terus buat apa nasehatin orang soal boundaries ama mental health kalo ujungnya mereka anggep wajar dan memaklumi sifat people pleaser?
   
2. lomba adu nasib : ada banyak temen gue yang ngalamin nasib sial di workplacenya kayak
   

A. Ada yang kontrak kerjanya kelar tapi evaluation reportnya diobrak abrik ama bosnya - dilabelin 'insubordinate' (ngelawan atasan) dan berakhir dengan dapet status 'do not rehire' aka diblacklist (gara gara masalah sepele - temen gue inj komplen soal keponakan salah satu manager yang udah nggak bisa kerja / low perform - suka lempar tanggung jawab juga - spv nya cerita temen gue ini yang suka benerin laporan ama ngerjain kerjaannya ponakan si manager tsb) kebanyakan temen gue begini nasibnya btw : evaluation report diobrak abrik cuman gara gara masuk shit list manager
B. Ada juga temen gue yang diterminate cuman gara gara dia komplen soal kelakuan pacar bosnya ke dia (aka dia dilaporin harrassment)
Pas mereka curhat soal struggle mereka - malah jadi 'lomba adu nasib' (ada yang terang terangan ngomong lah 'di blacklist ama dimusuhin pihak management mah masalah biasa di dunia kerja - gue yang sering dimaki maki financial controller tanpa alasan jelas aja selow' ama 'udah 8 tahun kerja di administrasi baru ngeluh sekarang soal black list ama masuk shit list manager? Lebay ah...itu hal biasa') pas mereka bales komplen ya responnya : ' lah lomba adu nasib ama gaslit biarpun kesannya negatif tapi diperluin - tujuannya biar lu gak jadi drama king ama gak berlarut di masalah lu' (dan banyak random stranger di medsos kenalan ama kawan gue yang setuju soal gini - 'budaya kita itu ketimuran dan gotong royong - udah pastilah sifat people pleaser itu wajib dipake... suka gak suka pasti ada momen dimana kita wajib ngikutin ama nurutin maunya pihak lain.....' ama 'lomba adu nasib emang perlu di real life, buat nunjukin kalo bukan cuma lu yang punya masalah' (gue rasa ini para manusia menganggap serius komik ama karakter fiktif kayak naruto ama recca yang hobi suka lomba adu nasib ama lawannya lmao)
Sama kayak diatas.....ngapain ngomong soal self care, empati, mental health kalo hal kayak gaslit, 'invalidate feelings' ama lomba adu nasib dianggap wajar dan perlu?
Gue penasaran, buat apa sebenarnya teriak teriak soal mental health kalo ujungnya toxic behaviour masih dipake dan dianggap penting dan wajib?

Pozdrav ljudi! Obećao sam vam da ću svaki četvrtak prijepodne ovdje objesiti vijesti iz Moljca, mog newslettera koji na jednom mjestu pokušavam obuhvatiti sve što je novo u svijetu knjiga kod nas. Malo bizarna kombinacija novih knjiga ovaj tjedan, ali vjerujem da će svatko pronaći nešto za sebe. Usput, što mislimo o ovim natječajima za nove riječi? Dobra zezancija ili hereza?
Mala napomena: Ne postoji jedno mjesto na kojem se objavljuju sva nova izdanja, a ja nisam savršen. Postoji mogućnost da mi nešto promakne ili da objavim nešto što je već par tjedana u knjižarama. Ja sam jedan tip koji ovo radi iz hobija, pa su greške vrlo moguće. Slobodno lupite reply, pa javite što sam zaznuo.
Još jedna napomena: Moljac je potpuno nezavisan proizvod. Nemam nikakvih veza s izdavačima, ne plaćaju mi da ovo objavljujem, niti da njihove knjige uvrštavam u izbor 15 novih knjiga. Ako neki od izdavača ikad poželi pomoći Moljcu da i dalje izlazi, to će biti jasno naznačeno kao oglas ili plaćena suradnja

Rukopis Sare Hustić opisan je kao vrlo sumanuta kombinacija, nadam se da je stvarno tako dobar
Hrvoje Ryznar dobitnik je nagrade Na vrh jezika 2023. za najbolji rukopis poezije autora do 35 godina starosti, a za najbolji prozni rukopis nagrađena je Sara Hustić. Neću lagat pa ću reći da prvi put čujem za ovu nagradu. I vjerojatno bi preskočio cijelu vijest da nisam vidio ovaj dio iz obrazloženja nagrade za Hustić: Prevedeno u pop-kulturno,kao da je Dubravko Mataković otišao u Cazinsku krajinu, pa se tamo sudario s Jiřijem Menzelom i generacijom Z i naslagama kulture u koju valja ubrojiti i nasljeđe Top liste nadrealista i aktualnu retradicionalizaciju. Zvuči zanimljivo.

Umrla je Vera Horvat Pintarić
Dva puta sam razmislio hoću li ovo uvrstiti u newsletter, ne samo zato što bi to značilo da imamo dvije obavijesti o smrti, nego i zato što nisam bio 100% siguran da VHP spada u newsletter o knjigama. Ali, kako me s police gleda njezina sjajna knjiga Kritike i eseji, očito je da je tu i mjesto. Bila je stvarno jedna od najboljih kritičarki koje smo imali.

  • Putovanje kroz mistične prostore 18. stoljeća započinje pričom Roisin MacBride, mlade Irkinje, kćeri mornara i babice, koja sanja o boljem životu u američkim kolonijama. No sudbina joj priprema neočekivan obrat kada majku optuže za vještičarenje, bacivši cijeli njezin svijet u kaos. Ovo nije samo priča o vješticama - ovo je priča o hrabrosti, snalažljivosti, o vukovima i vilama, o tome koliko smo daleko spremni ići za ljubav. Ovo je epsko putovanje prema preživljavanju u svijetu gdje se stvarnost isprepliće s magijom, a sudbina se čini nemilosrdnom. Autorica Barbara Mišković vješto spaja povijesni kontekst, mitologiju i emocionalne izazove kako bi stvorila priču koja će čitatelje uvući u svijet tajni, ljubavi i hrabrosti, pri čemu jedna mlada žena otkriva koliko daleko može ići za iskrene emocije, suočavajući se s tamnim silama i neprijateljima koje nije mogla ni sanjati.

• Vesna Ćuro-Tomić Knjiga troškova Izdavač: Disput Klikni za više
  • Radnja romana obuhvaća razdoblje od 2008. do 2018. u životu jedne zagrebačke obitelji obilježeno banalnom, a egzistencijalno presudnom činjenicom: kreditom u švicarcima. Desetljeće počinje optimistično, obitelj živi u relativnom blagostanju, ali u tijesnoj i trošnoj kući, pa supružnici – oboje situirani intelektualci – kupuju luksuzan stan, smatrajući da si ga mogu priuštiti. No kada počne divljanje švicarca, tonu u siromaštvo, a da bi otplaćivali kredit, prodaju sve što mogu. Supruga pritom iz dana u dan bilježi troškove, čak i najsitnije: kruh, meso, voće, povrće... jer u tome bilježenju kao da se odražava sve ono tjeskobno što proživljava. Što je u svemu tome najgore, ljudi oko nje – potišteni, osiromašeni i u strahu za vlastitu egzistenciju – postaju nesuosjećajni i zluradi. Kažu: tko vam je kriv, letjeli ste iznad svojih mogućnosti. Uza sve to, na poslu trpi zlostavljanje nekoliko kolega. Potpuno gubi samopouzdanje. Pita se, i ne zna odgovor, jesu li joj ga oni uništili ili su jednostavno u njoj namirisali žrtvu? Vide li joj strah u očima?

  • Sa surovih planinskih vrhova, ovaj triler prepun napetosti i neočekivanih preokreta vodi nas kroz neistraženu, divlju prirodu - iz koje ne možemo pobjeći i nemamo se gdje sakriti. Anna, Henrik i Milena svake godine uživaju u svojem tradicionalnom izletu na sjever Švedske. Anna i Henrik ne mogu odbiti kada Milena poželi da ovoga puta njezin dečko Jacob pođe s njima. Izlet se ubrzo pretvara u košmar, a odluka da povedu Jacoba zauvijek će promijeniti njihove živote: on ustraje na tome da se zapute u Sarek, krševitu planinsku oblast, u kojoj nema ni mreže ni signala, i koja je pogodna samo za iskusne planinare. I dok međusobne napetosti rastu, a put postaje sve naporniji, Anna se ne može oteti sve jačem dojmu da odnekud poznaje Jacoba.
• Julia Quinn Odavde do Mjeseca Izdavač: Mozaik knjiga Prevela: Sanja Ščibajlo Knjiga je u pretprodaji Klikni za više
  • Prvi naslov iz serijala Sestre Lyndon podsjeća nas zašto je Julia Quinn proglašena suvremenom Jane Austen. Prije sedam godina slomila mu je srce… Kada Robert Kemble po drugi put slučajno naiđe na Victoriju Lyndon ne može vjerovati svojim očima: Djevojka koja ga je razorila, koja ga je pustila da planira bijeg, a zatim ga ostavila da je čeka na cesti, odjednom se nalazi nadohvat ruke. Iako njegov bijes još nije poznavao granica, bilo joj je nemoguće odoljeti… Prije sedam godina ostavio ju je gotovo uništenu… Victoriji je otac lijepo rekao da se grof nikada neće oženiti župnikovom kćeri i bio je u pravu. Robert joj je obećao brak, a zatim je otplesao u London dok je ona trpjela sramotu spriječenog bijega. Iako ne uživa osobito u novom životu guvernante, kad joj Robert ponudi posao drugačije vrste – posao ljubavnice – ona ga odbija, nespremna žrtvovati svoju čast, čak ni za njega. Poznat po tome što ne prihvaća ne kao odgovor, Robert obećava da će je učiniti svojom, na svaki mogući način. Mogu li ovi ljubavnici ponovno naučiti vjerovati jedno drugome? I je li ljubav doista slađa drugi put?

  • Nema popuštanja. Nema predaje. Nema kompromisa. Više od dva desetljeća legendarni trener Tim Grover radio je s najboljima – Michaelom Jordanom, Kobeom Bryantom, Dwyaneom Wadeom te stotinama ostalih beskompromisnih igrača iz svijeta sporta, biznisa i ostalih područja ljudskog djelovanja – i pomogao im da budu još bolji. Sada prvi put otkriva što je potrebno poduzeti kako biste dominirali svima i svime na psihičkom i fizičkom planu i uči vas kako biti beskompromisan te ostvariti što god poželite. Izravan, nemilosrdan i bez dlake na jeziku, Grover raščlanjuje sve sastavnice osobe koja želi biti nezaustavljiva: ustrajte i kada svi ostali odustanu, hranite se pritiskom koji vas tjera naprijed, nikada ne dopuštajte emocijama da vas oslabe. U knjizi Bez kompromisa saznat ćete kako vjerovati svojim nagonima i ući u Zonu, kako kontrolirati svaku situaciju i prilagoditi joj se te kako pronaći slabe točke svojih protivnika i napasti. Grover vam daje savjete koje dijeli i svojim klijentima svjetske klase i pokazuje vam da je baš sve moguće ostvariti. Prepuna dosad neispripovijedanih priča i nenadmašnih pogleda u psihu najuspješnijih sportaša našeg vremena, knjiga nudi uvid u to kako čak i najbolji postaju još boljima… i kako to možete postići i vi.
• Jean-Baptiste Del Amo Sin čovječji Izdavač: OceanMore Prevela: Željka Somun Klikni za više
  • Nakon višegodišnjeg izbivanja, muškarac se iznenada vraća ženi i devetogodišnjem sinu. Postavivši se kao glava obitelji i želeći izgraditi novi život, odvodi ih na put u nepoznato. Nakon mukotrpna probijanja kroz nemilosrdnu prirodu, napokon se nađu na odredištu – na imanju Les Roches, u zabiti usred planina gdje je muškarac nekoć živio sa svojim mahnitim ocem. Trošnu kuću pokušat će dovesti u red, no duhovi prošlosti ne daju mu mira. Majka njegova sina, sada trudna s drugim muškarcem, nada se da je to samo privremeni boravak, vjerujući da će njezin muž biti dovoljno razuman i shvatiti kako su uvjeti za život u kući daleko od prihvatljivih. No progonjen prošlošću i izjedan ljubomorom, muškarac polako tone u ludilo, a jedino će sin pokušati spasiti nešto od njihove ljudskosti.
  • Pet godina nakon nagrađivanog romana Carstvo životinja, Jean-Baptiste Del Amo iznova ulazi u najskrivenije zakutke ljudske psihe donoseći priču o prijenosu traume, okrutnosti, o srcu tame u čovjeku. Izmjenjujući lirske opise divlje i očaravajuće, ali zlokobne prirode s psihološkim portretiranjem likova, autoru je pošlo za rukom stvoriti gustu i napetu atmosferu na granici užasa i ljepote.
  • Jean-Baptiste Del Amo hvaljen je kao stilist istančana i profinjena jezika s iznimnim smislom za detalje, što vjerno dočarava i hrvatski prijevod Željke Somun.
• Victoria Selman Iskreno, mračno, duboko Izdavač: Znanje Prevela: Dubravka Pleše Knjiga je u pretprodaji Klikni za više
  • Mislite da poznajete one koje volite? Ali koliko itko od nas uistinu zna? Osmogodišnja Sophie i njezina majka Amelia-Rose doselile su se u London iz Massachusettsa te ubrzo upoznale zgodnog i karizmatičnog Mattyja Melgrena koji započinje vezu s Amelijom-Rose. Sophie obožava Mattyja i on joj postaje poput oca. Uskoro se u Londonu počinju otkrivati tijela ubijenih mladih žena i čini se da serijski ubojica bira upravo one žene koje nalikuju na Ameliju-Rose. Sophie razdire sumnja te donosi odluku koja može uništiti njezinu obitelj. Gotovo dvadeset godina poslije, progonjena dugogodišnjim osjećajem krivnje, Sophie dobiva pismo iz zatvora Battlemouth, iz kojega saznaje da Matty umire i da je želi vidjeti. Čini se da će Sophie konačno dobiti odgovore na pitanja koja je već odavna muče. Ali hoće li je istina osloboditi krivnje - ili će je samo zakopati još dublje?
• Jens Liljestand Ako sve i nestane Izdavač: Profil Preveo: Edin Badić Klikni za više
  • Divlji požari uzrokovani klimatskim promjenama haraju švedskim šumama, no životi teku dalje: brakovi se raspadaju, tinejdžeri se zaljubljuju, djeca prkose roditeljima, identiteti se rascjepljuju. Didrik, medijski konzultant, u maniri superjunaka pokušava spasiti svoju obitelj suočenu s požarom, no njegova nastojanja otkrivaju nesposobna muškarca željna medijske pažnje. Melissa, influenserica, niječe klimatsku katastrofu i nastoji nastaviti živjeti kao i dosad, filtrirajući fotografije. André je tinejdžer koji koristi krizu kao priliku da se osveti ocu, a Vilja, neočekivana junakinja, zrelo se hvata ukoštac s problemima. Iz perspektive tih četiriju likova Jens Liljestrand strasno i pripovjedački zrelo ispisuje priču o bliskoj nam budućnosti koja je istovremeno nevjerojatna, ali i jezivo moguća ostavljajući čitatelje gotovo bez daha zbog nemilosrdnog tempa i zagušljive atmosfere dok opisuje svijet na rubu klimatske katastrofe.
• Taylorr Marshall Jurijan: Deseti predio noći Izdavač: Verbum Prevela: Katarina Gugić Klikni za više
  • Ne mogu se sve bitke osvojiti mačem. Jurijanova pobjeda protiv mračne sile u Cireni priskrbila mu je slavu u cijelome Carstvu, ali slava mu ništa ne znači ako ne može spasiti prijatelja Menasa. Potraga za Menasom vodi ga u Aleksandriju, gdje upozna inteligentnu, znatiželjnu djevojku Katarinu, kćer upravitelja Egipta, i s njom se sprijatelji. Katarina i Jurijan zajedno će se naći na Dioklecijanovu dvoru prepunu intrige i političkih igrica, gdje nitko nije onakav kakvim se predstavlja. Jurijan će se uskoro dokazati pred Dioklecijanom kao nezamjenjiv vojnik i pouzdani sluga i zauzvrat primiti nagrade i počasti – sve o čemu je od djetinjstva sanjao naći će mu se nadohvat ruke. No Marko Valerije Kaska čini sve u svojoj moći da i sam postane carevim miljenikom, a Kaskina mržnja prema Jurijanu ne poznaje granice, te neumorno smišlja smrtonosne spletke da upropasti sve Jurijanove prijatelje. Uz pomoć Sabre, Katarine, Konstantina i njegove majke Jelene te brojnih drugih neočekivanih pouzdanika Jurijan mora pronaći način da nadmudri Kasku i izbavi Menasa iz zatočeništva prije nego što bude prekasno. Od egzotične Aleksandrije, preko carskoga dvora u Nikomediji, pa do krvavoga pijeska u borilištu rimskoga Koloseja, ovaj drugi dio uzbudljive trilogije o sv. Jurju povest će vas u nenadmašnu pustolovinu kroz drevni rimski svijet, pun okrutnih borbi u arenama i neobičnih spletki i opasnosti, svijet u kojemu slobodu nerijetko treba platiti i samim životom.
• Ken Follet Nikada Izdavač: Vorto Palabra Prevela: Karmela Cindrić Knjiga u dolasku Klikni za više
  • Novo nezaobilazno djelo iz pera majstora pripovijedanja Kena Folletta. Nikada je više od trilera, to je akcijski nabijena drama koja se proteže do svih krajeva svijeta. U Africi, u saharskoj pustinji, dva elitna obavještajna agenta tragaju za moćnom grupom terorista krijumčara droge, svakodnevno riskirajući svoje živote, a kada se očajnički zaljube, na kocki će se naći i njihove karijere. Tu je i prelijepa mlada udovica koja se bori protiv trgovaca ljudima dok ilegalno putuje u Europu uz pomoć tajanstvenog muškarca koji možda nije ono što tvrdi da jest. U Kini, visoki dužnosnik s velikim ambicijama za sebe i svoju zemlju bori se protiv starijih komunističkih sokola u vladi, koji bi Kinu - i njezina bliskog vojnog saveznika, Sjevernu Koreju - mogli odvesti na put bez povratka. U Sjedinjenim Državama, Pauline Green, prva predsjednica zemlje, služeći se vještom i preciznom diplomacijom, suočava se s terorističkim napadima, nezakonitom trgovinom oružjem i klevetanjem svojeg bučnog političkog protivnika. Učinit će sve što je u njenoj moći da izbjegne početak nepotrebnog rata. Ali kada jedan čin agresije dovede do drugog, najmoćnije zemlje svijeta uhvaćene su u složenoj mreži saveza iz koje ne mogu pobjeći. I kada se jednom taj mehanizam pokrene, može li itko, uključujući one s najboljim namjerama i najelitnijim vještinama, zaustaviti neizbježno? Nikada je izvanredan triler, pun heroina i negativaca, lažnih proroka i elitnih ratnika, otužnih političara i oportunističkih revolucionara. Upozorava na zamke današnjeg svjetskog poretka i pruža uzbuđenje koje čitatelje odvodi do ruba nezamislivog.

  • Život nije mazio Ekipu iz Bayviewa. Najprije su trebali dokazati da nisu ubojice. Sljedeća je generacija trebala nadmudriti osvetoljubivog oponašatelja kobne igre. A sad sve počinje ispočetka. U početku tajanstveni oglasni pano izgleda kao loša šala: VRIJEME JE ZA NOVU IGRU, BAYVIEW. Ali kad jedan član Ekipe nestane, postaje jasno da je "igra" upravo postala opasna, a nitko ne zna pravila. Svi su mete. A kad Jake izađe iz zatvora i čeka novo suđenje, njegovi bivši prijatelji ostaju prestravljeni. Ekipa iz Bayviewa morat će otkriti je li Jake mogao nadmudriti policiju, je li on ubojica i kako je povezan s panoom. No jedno je sigurno, Simon je imao pravo - sve se tajne na kraju otkriju. Karen M. McManus, kraljica tinejdžerskih trilera čiji su romani prevedeni na 42 jezika, napisala je dugo očekivano finale svjetskog bestselera Lažljivac među nama, roman o sazrijevanju, pronalaženju sebe i otkrivanju vlastitog puta. Ovaj je roman svojevrsni nastavak Lažljivca među nama i Kobne igre, no može se čitati i samostalno.

Bonus

Inače ovaj post na Redditu završavam s knjigama koje su izašle, ne stavljam cijeli newsletter u kojem još ima i par recenzija i intervjua. Ipak, evo jednog intervjua kao mali bonus:
Sven Popović : Roditelji, bilo iz straha, bilo iz vlastitih kompleksa, često sputavaju vlastitu djecu. Oni ne idu psihijatru pa mi moramo
Nakon uspješnih romana "Nebo u kaljuži" i "Uvjerljivo drugi", Sven Popović (34), pisac čije su priče uvrštene u antologiju "Best European Fiction 2017" te prevedene na engleski, njemački, poljski i rumunjski jezik, za Biblioteku Bura/Mozaik knjigu objavio je i treći - punokrvni fantasy pod naslovom "Mali i Levijatan". Glavnom junaku, Malom, silno se žuri odrasti, a kad ga jedan nepromišljen korak odvede ravno do Strijele i Igle, pustolova čije su dogodovštine opasne, ali i ludo uzbudljive, vesele te razuzdane, otisnut će se u avanturu života, tijekom koje će odvažno ploviti morima i prkositi svemu što mu ograničava slobodu.

Yıllardır sessiz sakin yorum atmadan post atmadan CS izleyen katıldan destek olan birisiyim. Son olaylarda gerek video ve videodaki hali gerek yorumlarda hayal kırıklığına uğramış olan seyircilerine tavrı olsun yaşanan şeyler çok canımı sıktı, hayal kırıklığına uğradım ve tepki verilmesi gerektiğine inandım. Lakin şuan yaşanan zorbalamayı yanlış bulmaya başladım CS resmen dehumanize edilerek hiçbir duygusu, hissi yokmuşcasına buraları okuduğu bilinmiyormuşcasına zorbalanıyor. Kendi subredditinde aynı şakayı bin kere yaparak, geçmişte zaten böyleydi şöyleydi diyerek saçmalayıp aptal drama kitlesine tacizci ergenlere yol açıyorsunuz [ ( Onlarda işi gücü olmayan,her videonun her postun altında sıfır mantıkla taciz edecek güdümlü ergenler ve bunlar Ceren Sungur'un falan bile her içeriğine Murat Kurum'la da video çekin hahaha tarzı basit ezber şeyler yazarak hem insanın sinirini arttırıp tepki verdirtecek hem de CS'ye gerçek tepkinin kaynağını karıştırtacak ) ] bütün bunlar Can Sungur'a alan bırakmıyor bu şekilde devam ederse bütün olayı double down etmekten başka bir imkanı kalmayıp Jahrein gibi bir varlığa dönüşebilir ve böyle olursa çok yazık olur. Bu konudaki tek umudum çevresinde Yiğitcan gibi Tuna Pamir gibi aklı başında abi ne yapıyorsun diyebilecek arkadaşları olması.
