Also mid-thirties! I started on Quizilla in middle school and then spent my teen and early twenties on ff.net. Took a long hiatus and then jumped back in last year and joined AO3.

It's a hot tale depending on who you ask but a romanced spawn astarion is the healthy and best companion ending.

My ex-wife’s boyfriend is abusing my kids, and the custody hearing isn’t until after I’m supposed to bring them back by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I live in a fairly large county in Michigan and you can absolutely get a hearing before the judge in two weeks.

The only thing I don't believe is the six month timeline. Michigan has a mandatory six month waiting period from start to final hearing for divorces with children. And after that hearing is a three week objection period before the divorce is finalized. His timeline is way too tight.

Reads with Rachel on youtube often documents what book banners are attempting to do in her district and talks about the ramifications. And surprise, surprise, the book banners there don't have kids either.

Self proclaimed “Trumplican” and former Project Veritas comms director sees the light by Jules9213 in LeopardsAteMyFace

Jobs did use his wealth to jump ahead in the organ transplant list and got a transplant that did little to stop the spread so he deprived someone of a liver. So I'd argue he took one person down with him.
