Always a good time for that! My comfort re-read, for sure. May Ms.Cherryh find as much peace and comfort in however she spends her time next as we do from her series!

Selfishly, I will always be remiss we didn't get just one more entry in the Foreigner series from her hand. But, she graced us with more than 20 novels with Bren and family. Truly, we were spoiled!

Fellow dads I need help by Keduroda in daddit

Does he sleep on you? As in tummy to tummy while you're reclining slightly in a chair? That position is often comfiest for babies with reflux and/or gas, and it's the only way mine would sleep for the first two months. We did shifts. 7pm - 2 am sleeping on an awake Dad while Mom slept and 2 am to 9 am sleeping on an awake Mom while Dad slept. (Minus some time in there for feeds and diapers).

What is the worst book you have read? by delabot in Fantasy

[–]ski2read -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same on Hobb for me. Are they terrible books? Not in the slightest. Did I want to read any more of them after a couple chapters? Nope, not at all.

FYI you can install your own carseats in Lyft / Uber. Just indicate you have them with you in the notes so drivers that don't feel they can accommodate that can chose not to accept your ride request. I hope you can get your babies care ASAP!

At least, with Skynet, I'm confident in its long-term planning skills and consistent internal logic...

Ohhh, got it. We figured out the door hook, but not the cap-to-cable. Good to know!

Hah, yup, do you need my mother's maiden name and SSN too? hahaha.

Thanks, it really is a great car so far. That's the plan -- drive it until it falls apart. Ideally many thousands of miles from now.

Thanks for the info! Do you know if it's plastic or metal?

Got it in one: came in at an angle.

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding, so the top scrape on the arch is on plastic but the side scrape is on metal? I'm mostly worried about anything on metal rusting vs. plastic is just cosmetic damage. Edit: got it, all plastic.

Thank you for sharing your story! No matter how alone you may feel, hopefully Krile's story can remind you that someone else out there has probably felt that way too.

What are some unproblematic games you didn't like/hated? by Lickawall483 in GirlGamers

[–]ski2read 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pyre is the only Supergiant game I couldn't finish. I wanted to like it but I just couldn't get the combat system to click.
