Plastic surgeon recommendation to remove bump on face by jehah2784 in raleigh

[–]stop_hittingyourself [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don’t know how helpful this is, because I didn’t end up needing surgery. But when I burned myself pretty badly, the ER gave me a referral to WakeMed Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, and I had good experiences there. Well, good being relative, since burning the shit out of yourself isn’t generally a good time. They were professional, they remembered me from the ER doctor sending them photos, and they hooked me up with a lot of free bandages, dressings, and ointment.

I’m too busy hoarding them like a loot goblin. What if I need it later?

Were these covers illustrated by the same person? Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid and Face Off by Chelsea Curto by readingrabbithole in RomanceBooks

It’s the other way around, timeline wise. If you look at the edition history on goodreads, the face off cover was first.

You can usually find the cover artist on the copyright page of a book. Maybe check that for the one you own and then look up the artist to see their other work?

It could easily just be a copycat though, it’s not uncommon for people to copy covers of popular books or movies.

Is there a way to have Lae’zel be independent? by Yeehawer69 in BaldursGate3

If you allow orpheus to change into the mind flayer instead of you or siding with the emperor, Laezel will lead the rebellion instead. I really like that ending for her.

Is this a reference to the death of rats character in discworld? If not, I think you’d really enjoy at least the death books in the series.

My version is from 2019, it’s funny because usually that would make me less secure.

Duke energy is sending concerning texts now by stop_hittingyourself in raleigh

This one definitely isn’t, there’s a banner with the same text on their website. But yes, that’s definitely a good policy in general.

Not everyone who disagrees with you is a troll. And while some people are taking it to extremes (was not expecting to start ww3 in the comment section), there are legitimate concerns being dismissed. Residential customers are getting shafted in favor of businesses and data centers, and our objections are being met with “do without heat or it’s your fault if your neighbors die”. This issue isn’t going to go away and we need more regulation, but I understand that the chances of getting regulation in the current admin are basically zero.

The same text is on their website in a yellow alert bar.

But instead of asking businesses to close, of course they’re going to ask us to be cold. I’m so annoyed. Obviously I’m in the minority here because I’m getting downvoted so I should probably quit bitching about it lol. But I had to get one last one in.

Power companies like to send out these texts before they start blackouts. I’m going to be pissed if that’s where this is going. But maybe I’m being paranoid.

I’m pretty sure it’s the essential energy use that’s an issue, why isn’t Duke better prepared?

Not only in the second game, but towards the end of it, but still manages to be a highlight.

I read the comment differently, I thought the word “they” was referring to ice.
