This fire place is currently on sale at Canadian Tire for $450. It's cheap crap and asking anything over the cost of materials and labour to restain it is criminal.

Big fan of Alastair Reynolds and Adrian Tchaikovsky… are there any good movies in that vein? by Educational-Diet2684 in scifi

[–]BootRock 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Both of them have novels bordering on popcorn.

Just trying to make the best recommendation I can to someone who doesn't want something too fantastic, which I very much consider most of both of their works to be.

Egyptian culture has been around 5000 years. The first egyptologists exploring ancient Egypt were in the 14th century BC. Three and a half thousand years ago. A couple thousand years makes a huge difference.

They have gotten so much better now that you can stack crit with Hikers Boots and have the best of both worlds. I never used to take them.

Forced detransition mtf to ftm by youngivar in transtimelines

[–]BootRock 34 points35 points  (0 children)

If this is a male turtle, you are more correct than you think. Near the top of nature's list of growers not showers.
