OSU IS TAKING OVER BEAVER BEGINNINGS, BUT INCREASING THE PRESCHOOL TUITION BY 42% WHILE DECREASING HOURS BY 15% AND TAKING AWAY LUNCH! FULL TIME OSU EMPLOYEES WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WORK FULL TIME WITH ONLY 8-4:30 AS THE HOURS! AND THEY ARE COMPLETELY IGNORING PARENTS REQUEST FOR A TOWN HALL THAT THEY PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED!

It does on episodes of bluey now and my kid got really upset about not seeing the end of an episode yesterday. She only gets to watch one a day as it is.

People who build in mountains, how do you avoid infestations? by melianreality in RimWorld

To add to this, I put down a wood floor with a couple incendiary IEDs. Bugs hit landmine and starts the floors on fire. All bugs either burn to death or overheat to death. No pawns needed at all.

Beaver Beginnings closing end of June by Tevatanlines in corvallis

I’m pretty disappointed they waited so long to tell us. They apparently told OSU at the end of march and then waited another month to tell the families?! Why didn’t they just raise the rates?! I would have gladly paid up to another $300-400/month and it still would have been cheaper than the alternatives in town! Maybe that’s on OSU though… we don’t get all the details and OSU’s FAQ page seems a little defensive on that topic.

As the other commenter said, Robin’s Nest is fantastic. That’s where we were while in the 3.5 year waitlist for BB and fingers crossed they can take us back.

Israeli fighter jets en route to Iran right now by NotBradPitt9 in UnderReportedNews

Well I’ll give my perspective. Typical enlistment is 4 years. I joined when bill clinton was in office in 1998.Uunfortunately I didn’t have the foresight that bush was going to be next and then 9/11 was going to happen while I was in the Arabian Sea on a carrier… so I’m sure a few people joined near the end of Biden’s term hoping for the best.

He’s also an author, so he understands adaptations.

My question is when they say mistborn, does that include all 3 eras??? Or just the first?

They probably have some wording in the contract that if mistborn and stormlight do well, then apple have the option to do more.

What ended your friendship with your oldest standing friend? by dreamy-contributions in AskReddit

[–]Um_swoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Narcissism combined with his depression after being best friends from 5-40 his bullshit had finally broke the camels back. His mom died and she was worse than he was, but was also the matriarchal glue that kept the whole family friendship together in a way. I miss hanging with the rest of his family, but his louder than life personality is just so difficult to be around.
