best way to cope with dismissive trainer in c/witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.world

  1. Shame the guy for being a bad trainer (in more eloquent words)? Or maybe that can be part of option 2.

Quick links in Google Docs? (kbin.social)
 

Hi all,

I'm trying to add quick links in a Google Doc to another Google Doc on the same account. Notion does this easily by typing @DocNameHere, and it magically works. Is there a function like this? I'm getting tired of going to the Doc I want to link, hitting Share, copying the link, back to the Doc I was working in, paste. There has to be an easier way.

Thanks!

I tried Dune a few times, I just can't do it. Not the books, not the miniseries, not the new movie. In theory it sounds great, but... It's not gripping me at all for some reason.

The Handmaid's Tale - meh? in c/books@kbin.social

It must be terrifying living there (in the US) right now, which probably makes it scarier if you're that close to it as well.

You make a good point, abuse of women is normalised. I think in this particular case (book vs show), the show was a lot more visceral, whereas in my opinion it was kinda of 'glossed over' in the book. It might be part of the writing style - I usually read books in first person, so it's like you are the character. This story was written so detached, I didn't feel much for anyone.

Unofficial Subreddit Migration List (Lemmy, Kbin) in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

There's a kbin userstyle for PC (do they exist for mobile?) that gives you a sidebar of your subscribed magazines that groups them from different instances! You still have to find them first though.

The Handmaid's Tale - meh? (kbin.social)
 

I read the Handmaid's Tale yesterday, finally. I'm disappointed. I did not like the writing style at all, there was no real story, just descriptions. And then it just ended. No conclusion or anything.

My best guess it's because the TV show was so intense and well made (at least the earlier seasons), and the book was... Not? Episodes would stay with me for days, but I'm struggling to recall the book already.

Maybe the book is supposed to be unsatisfying to go with the theme. Nothing much happened after Gilead was created, every day just kinda goes by. Sure there was some torture and death, but... Eh.

Maybe I was expecting too much after all the praise it got. It's my first Atwood book, and way way outside of my usual genre (fantasy, scifi, horror).

What did you all think of it?

Info on how to get your saved reddit data and move to kbin (leavingreddit.notion.site)
 

I wrote a quick manual for some friends trying to leave reddit and get their saved stuff, maybe it'll help someone else as well. Feel free to point out any mistakes, I'm by no means an expert.

What would be the best way to protect a room from unwated visitors in a low-tech fantasy world? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Lasairiona@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Boobytraps. Rumours about a curse/ghosts/entry fee. Pretend there's something boring in there. Allow entry, but make the process the full force of German bureaucracy (you need to file form A on a blood moon, to get form A, you need document B2, no not that one the green one, you can get it from Location C but that's only open once a month for half an hour, and if you don't wear pink they won't help you).

Anyone know if the r/Imaginary* subreddits are planning on migrating? in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

Maybe if we make it, they will come? (and someone will want to take over modding?)

I've been looking as well but haven't found anything yet. I considered starting /m/imaginarynetwork (would be cool to have it as an instance, and the the different subs as their own magazines!) but I'm a little scared of modding.

Despite everything I hope they stay on reddit too, I have an automatic phone background changer that pulls new pics from the imaginary subs every 30 minutes 😅
