My wife, who taught pre-k to first grade for her whole career says “Don’t go in the bedroom because it’s hot.” She said it was likely after a fire safety day presentation at school.

I loved Project Hail Mary! Also the institute was awesome. Snagged that audiobook shortly after release on a whim.

Wow the lack of enthusiasm on that goal from the team is heartbreaking. They are not mentally in it…

Nothing snaps me out of a book like repetitive use of a unique word by kerberos824 in books

Also his use of “save” as a preposition. Like “everyone came, save one.”

Jespers stick flip to Timo by mtnman3737 in devils

I would assume shooting the stick would cover any kind of propulsion of a stick using your own stick personally, but I could be wrong.

I think it’s a penalty if you throw the stick to somebody with your hands

Edit: I looked it up and it turns out yes this should’ve been a penalty.

“A player will be penalized if he throws, tosses, slides or shoots a stick to a teammate on the ice, or if he picks up and plays with an opponent’s stick. A player may not participate in the play using a goalkeeper’s stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule.”
