legit. I’ve got a threshold too, for sure. it’s just not zero. :-P

Sometimes, but only really for characters / locations, and more at the beginning than the end.

I’m in stormlight 5 myself just now, and I stopped doing notes after book 3 I think? Similar for The Expanse, a couple years ago.

That’s nobody’s business but the Turks.

Specifically, “J” is a smiley face in Wingdings font.

I could no longer open Instagram without encountering dozens of large-breasted women skipping rope, romping in tank tops, brushing their teeth while drooling erotically. It was the same story on TikTok, the little of it I watched.

This confession kills me every time. My Instagram is entirely tattoo designs because that’s all I interact with, and TikTok is similarly reflective.

The first movie is the first HALF of the original book, and the second movie is the second half.

They sliced an (awesome) ending into the middle of the book, and the vibes of the second movie were different, but it was authentic to the book.

My 6th grader is sometimes correct too, but I’d still rather ask real sources than take her word for everything.

The closest I’ve got is Neal Stephenson, specifically his System of the World trilogy vs the standalone Cryptonomicon, both set in the same larger context, and even with a character that shows up in both.

I loved the standalone, but I’ve tried and failed multiple times to even make it through the first of the trilogy.
