I’m still confused - where does the forgery come in?

I just finished that (and a first-time Culture read) the other day. I don’t LIKE when I finish a universe and there’s no more to read :cry:

That Smitten Kitchen pasta e ceci recipe is great! One of my favorites that of COURSE nobody else in the house likes (at least my partner tolerates it). So I only get to eat it when the kids aren’t around. Though just making it for lunches may be a good solution…

I can’t believe how hip Troy is now - it was pretty rundown when I went to RPI like 20 years ago.

We find it almost impossible to de-escalate once escalated, so we’ve been working really hard to avoid the escalation if at all possible. For our son, a lot of it stems from anxiety and expectation management. We’ve taken to talking through our expectations in the car on the way to an event...

In the US at least, there’s a button for “I have my own bag” that tares out the weight of it, so no employees involved.

Well now it’s officially a holiday, had a trip to the ER tonight - my 3-year-old tripped and fell directly onto her head somehow and had a HUGE bump that like inflated very fast, like almost the size of a gumball. Thankfully they were able to see us pretty quickly and basically since she hadn’t...

We’ve gone hard into Roald Dahl books with my 6-year-old. He really like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Before that, we read all of the Ramona books.

I also did a re-read and yeah, she sure is! Pretty good too!

Thanks for this recommendation, these were quite fun.

Specifically, a 2026 Kia EV9 in GT-line trim. :eng101:

New car day! Going fully electric in the family (we already have a Model Y).

Oh man some of those covers bring me right back to summer vacation holed up in the only air conditioned room in the house staying up way too late reading ‘bout mechs.

Luxury! We got a scare email this week from the head of HR to our entire office explicitly discouraging “coffee badging”. I also work with nobody local but am required to be in the office :rolleyes:

I always imagined Murderbot as presenting male, but that’s probably just projection on my part. Very excited to see some of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon!

Murderbot is a cyborg

We have 15% but you’re forced to hold for 6 months, which is not so appealing.

Here’s like a quarter mile of strollers outside of Toon Town

We were there a few weeks back and I was so glad my wife convinced me to get a stroller for our almost-6-year-old as it allowed me to move at my pace instead of his.
