Nice!
One of the better #litrpg webnovels I've read, Worth the Candle by Alexander Wales, is being made into a #manhwa / #manga!

Worth the Candle
Juniper was always the Dungeon Master, never the player. He was always a creator of worlds rather than the one who walked within them…until now. Somehow, the tables have turned in the most dramatic way possible. Juniper finds himself in a world filled with the wildest fantasies a mind could come up with, and his fingerprints are all over it. Throughout this world, echoes of his own ideas and plots leave him feeling like he’s always one step behind. He finds bits and pieces of ancient infl…

Many people do not understand how cooked the German “left” is.

Four stickers on a wall saying: 1 “Antifa supports Israel” with a tilted rainbow flag in the whole background, an entirely red Antifa flag logo in the bottom left, and a star of David with a white background in the bottom right 2 the Mossad logo (Israel's secret service) but instead of Hebrew text it says “Nazihunter” twice 3 „Antisemites International” with the Logo of Amnesty International (a candle with barbed wire surrounding it) but the word Amnesty crossed out and replaced with “Antise…

This study examines the role of olfactory stimuli in enhancing these effects, using a randomized within-subject design. Thirty participants aged 18-60 experienced VR scenarios simulating a calming seaside environment, with sessions lasting 45 minutes, in two conditions: with and without a "Beach" essential oil scent (Yankee Candle) administered via diffus…
