I posted this comment on a similar topic a while ago, for context it was replying to someone who wanted to pick 2 LeGuin novels to read to essentially get a survey of her work. I've liked her standalone novels as well, but I see them get less discussion generally. I think her work that I see referenced most often is the short story The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.

LeGuin is one of my favorite authors. I've read a lot, but not all of LeGuin's novels. She has 2 main multibook series that I've read, the Earthsea books and the Hainish cycle.

Earthsea is sort of YA fantasy, but grows up throughout the series. The first 3 are a self contained trilogy, and my favorite is Tombs of Atuan which is book 2, I think would be okay as a standalone title. My other favorite is Tales from Earthsea which is book 5, and is a collection of short stories set in the setting. You'd be missing a little context only reading Tales, but this could also be a standalone.

The Hainish cycle is scifi, and are only loosely connected by the setting and don't have a too firmly established chronology, or any shared main characters. My favorite from the Hainish Cycle is The Left Hand of Darkness and my 2nd favorite is The Dispossessed.

All means testing does, is split support for it.

It also makes it more expensive to implement, because there is bureaucratic labor involved in compliance.

They skipped it entirely, because this is intended to be MRI safe.

One of my first (concurrent) playthrus I was under the impression that there might be some limit to the long rests because of the tadpole, so I basically did all of act 1 on like 1 maybe 2 long rests. It was really fun to have to play so cautiously and really eke out every advantage I could, but then was really disappointed when I realized almost all the companion stuff happens one at a time during long rests, and power long rested like 20 times in a row.

Why'd the melons have an expensive marriage?

Because they cantaloupe.

I've had the non internet connected one for a few years, and overall I like it a lot. There've been a couple of maintenance issues, but all in all I was able to fix them myself with youtube tutorials.

Mine tends to go about a week and a half to 2 weeks between emptying it out, and it does smell a bit by 2 weeks. I've thought about rigging it up to have a larger bin, but then I'd have to carry a larger bag of refuse out.

Aren't we the rain in game? When we fall from space in our drop pods; and aren't we a risk to everything in our path?

I always thought that was the rhyme and reasoning of the title.

Edit: spelling and formatting.

I feel like Bastion is probably appropriately rated, given that it is very popular, and I think made it onto atleast a few game of the year lists when it was released.

I feel like those people are voting for someone entirely different
