I wouldn’t go so far as to say he was a good guy, but I still don’t think it’s fair to label him as a bad guy by the end of the book (pre-prologue). By the end of half blood prince he’d started realizing that he was on the wrong side, but how many 15/16 year olds are out there that have the confidence to openly defy their parents, especially ones so renowned as the Malfoys? Nevermind the fact that Voldemort would have him killed for defecting
Damn, I haven’t read the books in over a decade so I’m hazy on some of the details. I remembered him trying to stop Harry in the last book but I was thinking he was still rolling pretty deep with the other death eaters
Sarah Katz, 21, had a heart condition and was not aware of the drink’s caffeine content, which exceeded that of cans of Red Bull and Monster energy drinks combined, according to a legal filing
it seems wild to me that an adult with a heart condition like that wouldn’t check any caffeinated drink to see the caffeine quantity before drinking it…
The issue is that she didn’t know it had caffeine, presumably because it wasn’t obvious when ordering it. She may have just thought “charged lemonade” was the name they gave their regular lemonade drink and didn’t think anything of it. I wouldn’t think to ask for the caffeine content of a lemonade, either.
I think he would call you a dumbass for getting into gambling, but would view someone running the business as just a businessman. He may be wary of the gang associating with him but I don’t think he’d view him as a bad dude
Good news for those students. I wonder what the state’s financial aid looks like. Hopefully a majority of students there are able to take advantage of the program.
Nice job! I was going to ask if these were printed. What kind of printer did you use? I don’t think I could manage such fine detail with my own (slightly modified Neptune 3).
What prevents you from living this way? If the main plus you’re seeing is “easier to clean”, I assume that means you’ve got more furniture and such. What’s stopping you from getting rid of everything except what’s pictured?
This is off topic, but I really like the facial hair that he has grown. It looks really awful, and makes him look more like the 50 something-year-old capitalist that he is rather than the 30 something year old epic meme lolzer he was trying to portray himself as a couple years ago
Just went down the aliexpress rabbit hole again. Theres really everythinf for some of really niche things that i wouldnt ever buy, but some things really do look appealing. I wonder what do you guys use daily thats worth lets say under $20
The appeal is to have it fit on your keychain/ in your pocket so that you’ve always got it rather than having to run back to the car or wherever one might be
In December 2022, Miranda and her partner, Levi Langley, packed up the whole family, all their possessions and their pet chameleon and set out for Texas. It was time to come home....
Yeah… This was a really rough read. I feel awful for everyone involved but the author was really struggling to paint a lot of things about them in a positive light
I’m really not sure what point you’re trying to make here. I’m talking about things like, the doctors told her how messed up the pregnancy was and she thought “maybe it’ll magically fix itself” and that she “decided not to decide” and the such. It sounds like she was given information that at least could’ve opened up options had she not ignored it for so long. It’s great that the step mother is going to “support her no matter what”, but I have to wonder if their " traditional values" helped contribute to the fear she had in finding a way to get an abortion.
Yep. Fifty pence in a charity shop, you literally can't go wrong.
I made this over the summer in preparation for our big family holiday, and remember I had to ask for help with gathering over at @sewing because it was being a nightmare and I am a noob. Worked out pretty well in the end, though! (Thank you Lemmy folks for the advice)
Lots of firsts with this skirt! Well, two firsts. I put pockets into a pattern that didn't have them, and also drafted a curved waistband so it would actually fit. Felt pretty pro after all that, I won't lie 😎
Patterns are the Cali Skirt and Ellie Bralette from https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/NHPATTERNS, and I was about to shoutout @wisbr for enabling me with that link in the first place, but she seems to have gone and now I'm sad 😢
I have since learned that this “fact” isn’t true… Turns out the source of that info wasn’t understanding how tags work. There’s actually just a lot of fanfics that include Astarion. Not necessarily for romance 🤷...
Do the right wing women in relationships with right wing guys think it's like a draco malfoy thing where they're a good guy underneath?
