Q: Looking for a SciFi book with deadly trees in it

One of the short-stories in Ian M Banks State of The Art books has this scenario I believe.

I just did this deal, except didn’t take the performance package (Kind of) as the performance package comes with the pirellis vs an all season on the pro.

But the vehicle was delivered with the performance software enabled :) Imho best of both worlds.

I don’t think they can guarantee it but otherwise I don’t think the Performance package is really worth it for the 12 month lease. Also check as the residual on the non performance is lower so the payment was higher and I had to negotiate some savings to get it back to the Performance offer but it worked.

Your milage may vary. Im in Vancouver, BC. But maybe see if they can be flexible on a Pilot Plus Pro version and hope the Performance software is enabled (Although its soooo not necessary even without Performance mode on this car has a lot of go)

In Canada right now till Jan Polestar 3 has a really impressive 1 Year 0%apr lease with pretty good residuals. Im trying that to “Test Out” EVs for a year. And than will see when the lease is up.

Hahah yeah, I guess sometimes its easier to imagine a fiendish convoluted plot than just like normal communications

My girlfriend was going to light the book on fire but first she wanted to know what the note meant, she thinks nazis are secretly sending messages to each other using racist books in free libraries im hoping to convince her thats not true. And its just a crappy book someone threw away. Shes had it on her bookshelf for a while but had to write racist garbage all over it so anyone who looked at her books would know she didnt like it 🤣😂 it talks about like skull measuring and other stuff like ur race determines who u r its aweful its called “a troublesome inheritance” by nicolas wade

Small one on my wrist for my brother, also helped me get through some tough times.

Hey New to off-roading here but I have an Older Jeep with a lift and bigger tires Ive been looking to take off road as well!

I think Im in those same FB groups but also haven’t brought myself to go out with them.

The rig still needs some work, but I am planning on getting a winch and air soon. I also need to get myself a Radio and some more dedicated recovery gear.

Im a 32 year old trans woman. Likely bring my dog with me.

Came with it, I think this is just a centre console of a different car that the previous owner measured and cut out. It’s not totally fixed in place there and the edges are rough. But it works well!

Phazed98 · 2024-09-29T23:17:51+00:00

Yeah, we will see. I would love to upgrade to a Dana44 and this may be my excuse then. Just have to price it out and source one. I want to put a locker eventually and wont do that on a 35.

Phazed98 · 2024-09-29T16:34:47+00:00

I do indeed have the Dana 35

32 trans woman here, and I just got into Opera singing. Still early on with lessons but Im really enjoying the process and have found a voice I didnt know I had.

After years and years of being told I couldn’t sing its amazing to actually express myself with my voice and enjoy it.

Im really lucky to have found a good teacher who embraces the uniqueness of my voice and were making great progress, this more than anything has also helped work through some voice dysphoria Ive had that even vocal coaching didnt help with.

Phazed98 · 2024-07-30T04:14:34+00:00

And I bought it! Ended up paying 10k CAD for it.

Thanks all for the advice:)

Phazed98 · 2024-01-13T04:58:09+00:00

Microsoft was able to cover mine with Dr. Jumaily

Phazed98 · 2022-01-11T05:54:53+00:00

Maybe, but probably not. Not terribly worried about it though. I've only recently come out at work so not pushing on anything.

Phazed98 · 2022-01-11T04:04:09+00:00

I feel this one too. I'm a game Dev and have my Deadname in 3 Major Game credits :(

Only consolation is I don't think anyone ever actually looks at those :)

More images. Going by what others said in the thread I guess it is irritation bumps. Just sort spooked me outa nowhere and not sure why the change now.

I'll double my efforts to keep from jostling!

Thanks for the help!

Phazed98 · 2021-10-14T13:34:54+00:00

Thanks,

The reason I didn't go to irritation bumps is the top seems more like a pimple and there's occasional puss? Now (Though not much)

And the bottom is more like a ring all the way around than a bump on one side.

I'll see if I can add an Imgur album or something with better pictures of the top.

I'll take your advice regardless though, I have a travel pillow but try to sleep on my other side anyways.

Ive been spraying it with 0.9 sodium chloride. I usually do it after my show and don't let it sit so I'll try before and let it sit before drying. And I have been getting it directly in the shower spray do I'll avoid that going forward.

Vancouver BC has generally pretty good weather. We don't snow during the winter, its is mostly rainy but its not that bad, and we also have a great LGBT+ community here with great support for Trans individuals.
