I read It's Lonely at the Center of the Earth yesterday and loved it. I'd like to read more GNs, I mostly read manga, but there doesn't seem to be many realistic fiction GNs? I'm not that interested in fantasy/supernatural stuff usually. So if anyone knows any good realistic GNs I'm open to suggestions đ
I'm also reading Creation and Anarchy by Agamben, but I've been a bit distracted by Silksong so it's taking a while, whoopsie~
I use the Fjällräven/Specialized (now seems to be rebranded as 'Hoja') hip pack for this.
It's just about big enough to fit an average book, my headphones, and some miscellaneous stuff.
But if needed it's also expandable so you can fit a jacket, or groceries on the way back etc.
It has completely replaced the backpack I used to carry everywhere (which I carried because of wanting to bring a book).
That's commonly seen as 'spinster' age in several East Asian countries, like China and Japan.
I don't know how that came to be historically, but 27 or 28 is generally considered to be the age a woman should be married by.
Is it though? Not a problem I've ever encountered, unlike dangerous ebikes. And the latter causes actual injury, not just a minor nuisance, so I wouldn't call it an apt comparison either.
If, however, the commonly held opinion is that animals in restaurants are as big a problem as dangerous motor vehicles... I guess that explains the lack of response at least.
I thought saying it's 'out of left field' and hard to notice would clue people in, hoping from a response from people who had also already taken notice.
I didn't want to start a discussion on emotional support animals, just on why people don't seem to take notice of something like that being said.
Cool, I hope you'll love it at least half as much as I did!
