Off topic rant: county fair rides. My town has a decent-ish county fair every summer, and this past year my son was finally old enough to go on rides. Nothing crazy, but he kept seeing the Ferris wheel when we would drive by, and really wanted to go on it. My wife looked up ticket prices online, and saw that it was 2 credits a person to ride, so that would equate to I think like $6USD for the three of us to take a five minute ride around the wheel. We show up to the fair, and in order to use any ride credits whatsoever, every rider has to have their own ride bracelet. Those cost $2 each. Each bracelet had to be loaded with a minimum of $20 worth of ride credits. Meaning that for my family of three to ride the Ferris wheel one time, which should have cost $6, we would be paying $66. Luckily, my little boy is an absolute trooper, and didn’t go into a conniption fit when we told him we weren’t going to do any rides. But seriously, it blew my mind. It seems like companies are just extracting every possible penny from cherished childhood memories. Don’t even get me started on mall Santas haha

Since when is caring about our planets biggest problems and having the platform and reach to try and make a difference “moving onto the next publicity stunt”

This is a Union hall though

Just searched my email and found the 659 page pdf! Turns out it was actually the Deathly Hallows, it’s funny how things from 2007 are so hazy.

Was it the “leaked” version of the Half Blood Prince? If so, a girl I was interested in sent that to me saying that her aunts friend worked for the publisher and I couldn’t show anyone or else they’d all go to jail. I was in high school so of course my mom was suspicious when I was spending hours reading something on the computer, so she made me tell her what it was, and I remember crying and begging her not to tell anyone that this girl I wanted to bang had sent it to me haha
