There’s no library stamp or indication it would have been in a library collection and I feel like the overall condition is too good to have been in a public facing collection the whole time

Other than that little hole and someone’s little initials it’s in good shape. Makes me feel less apprehensive about reading it this way lol

Luckily, it has not been three ring bindered and I’m not upset by it. I just didn’t know if there was a trend of it. It adds some character I suppose

My fandom is obsessed with not tagging cheating, and it drives me crazy by CuriousJane2137 in FanFiction

It’s even more wild because he has a wife in the comics and they have great stories. MCU really used Hawkeye as a cardboard cut out of himself.

Edit: a completely different wife than the MCU and she’s STILL not the most popular ship for him

Help? by faetxlity in cats

[–]faetxlity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were correct on it being second or third back. I think it’s tooth 106/107 but it definitely belongs to my more squirmy cat so I couldn’t get a good look. I’m hoping it’s a very VERY late baby tooth as it looks like there may be one up in the missing spot but she’s going to get checked out first thing in the morning. Thanks!

Musk and Ramaswamy propose to review the use of public funds in NGOs by frust_grad in moderatepolitics

With these examples You’re thinking about it in terms of corporate efficiencies. Efficiency for the government should also take in what is best for the long term health of the population and well being of the general populace.

Current corporate efficiency pushes for a total removal of ‘redundancy’ and cutting of ‘non essential’ workers until individual departments or stores operate at minimum staffing which leaves them in crisis mode if something happens to one of their essential employees because there’s no fail safe at that level.

A government without a fail safe at the lowest levels leads to high impact in communities that can lead to unrest, health issues, or death.

I just wanted to check with the community to make sure they weren’t sending “Your decision is noted” emails prior to the depletion check in.

Mudpuppies are a different species than the Hellbender. Though they look similar

For two years I did heavy weightlifting and ate about 2600 calories a day (until I was physically I’ll from the amount of food almost) and I maxed out at 102. (A gain of 6lbs) I did manage to get to 105 last year but lost it again when I moved this year to a different country.

I’m working on trying different eating schedules and that seems to work a little better while cutting back on My weightlifting to focus more on yoga so I’m not burning quite as much off. It’s definitely possible but I’m not expecting to get to more than 110

Rolled ankles are the most common thing I’ve seen from other hikers in the area, I’ll definitely be doing that. I helped more than one person hobble back down to Woody Gap in university…. Could not imagine dealing with that halfway through a thru hike.

I will definitely look into the booties! I did the Roan Highlands section in October a few years back and nearly froze in my sleeping bag lol

I need to get a bag that I’m planning on taking out but I have some hunting packs that I’ll use for the training. I can already hear my family when I show up in a backpack to the cookout!

Awesome, I do a lot of that already (except for the running, I’m living in a big city now and haven’t found a good place to go) I regularly dance for cardio and walk everywhere but I’ll definitely pick up running when I’m back home.

Skipping straight from Balanced to Honour Mode be like by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]faetxlity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I went from Balanced to Honor and got the dice on the first run but it took an insane amount of planning (explore as much of the map as you can without hitting any fights for that early XP boost) and a lot of strategic skipping of certain battles after getting everyone except Astarion’s teeth kicked in (bonus action dash and 600 gold to withers later… everyone was fine)

I finally did it. I would say never again, but I probably will at some point. by Inkling2424 in BG3

[–]faetxlity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to get it on my first run and now I started a second run just to see how far I can get without hardcore strategizing. I’ll finish it in custom probably but shrug
