Most of mine won’t let you without an appointment and no matter how I answer the questions online it tells me I’m ineligible

Surprises have an end. Secrets are forever. A surprise is a secret for now, but I can tell you later. Secrets are things I can never tell, which can be dangerous.

I’m very grateful that my district where I teach has very specific library guidelines. Books cannot be challenged based on gender or sexual identity only. Books cannot be removed based on a single passage or paragraph, it must be removed or retained on the content of the entire book. Challenges may only come from parents, employees, or those that reside in the community and they must read the material in its entirety, and then they are excluded from the committee that makes the final decision to retain or remove the book. Once challenged the book cannot be challenged again for 5 years, and only one challenge can happen at a time. Of course, I feel my district would bend very quickly at any state or federal pressure, but at least for now the libraries are left to those who have degrees in library science and hold teaching licenses.

The chronological version is definitely better on later playthroughs. The gameplay and story work best in the original version. The chronological story is just interesting to see what information the characters are working with in later scenes and to see some parallels.

My husband is playing the chronological version right now and literally finished this part when I scrolled past your post. He played this game when it first came out; we stayed up all weekend to finish.

I’ll follow our pediatricians advice.

It looks like the percentages are based of a total of $37.95, so it’s possible there was a discount included that made their total closer to $30.

Not saying this isn’t real and completely scummy, but sometimes the tip is calculated before discounts, gift cards, and whatnot. I always tip based on what our total order was even if what we paid was less. If this is truly trying to fudge the numbers to take advantage of people then that’s shitty.

Yes, but I work in an elementary school and she goes to preschool full time so it’s not bad to be cautious

Then she ate a salad from Costco: an “everything” chopped salad kit with poppy seeds.

My three year old got her first round of Covid vaccines as soon as she was able to and then boosters ever since. My husband and I have both gotten flu and Covid vaccines each year. I guess we’ll have to see if there’s a different way to get her protected this fall…

I have a literature.cafe from even before my lemm.ee account, but it doesn’t federate with piefed (at least in any way that I’ve noticed). Several communities I follow switched to piefed so I wasn’t able to see or follow them with literature.cafe
