Comics, photography, ska, books, Star Trek, D&D, interesting rocks but not a dick about any of it. Lots more cat content than I anticipated. Proud father of an autistic son.

When I was unpacking books after the move, I lost count of how many times I thought "I thought I got rid of this." Makes me wonder which books I actually traded in.

Finished before work this morning. Also, I forgot that my wife already made me reread it once in 2018.

My wife is listening to The Giver to and from work this week so I said I'd reread it. It's only been about 30 years.

I imagine this teacher was politically conservative and the unchanging Sameness appealed to them.

If they want it to be pronounced like primmer, they need to spell it like primmer.
