Time loop resolved

Hear me out.

What if what we see is the second timeloop that happened.

The first time Lucifer did die for Rory, and in her remorse when Chloe dies she travels to the past to prevent it from happening, and she does this successfully!

Which is the time loop we see, in which she grows without a father because she chooses to.

Somebody debunked this because lucifer was to be killed with Rory’s wing-blades which wouldn’t have been possible if Rory wasn’t here.

But what if Rory or Chloe pregnant with Rory were indeed going to die and he then chooses to exchange his life for them.

She still grows in pain for not having a father and travels back, and the time loop changes anyway.

Scotland 6N squad predictions

Right it's that time of year. The eve of the Merry Sixmas squad announcement for Scotland. It's wet, cold, I'm bored so let's be having your predictions for the squad and any hopes and dreams you are foolish enough to have whilst also owning a blue thistle jersey.

I'll start. I think this group as a minimum is the probable same starting lineup we've come to expect. Duhan Van Der Kilmarnock, Hogg the baw, Russell shuffle, FFS ALI!, Rozza, Schooooooooe!, Golden Graham, not Top Gear's Chris Harris, Jonny ten thousand tackles Gray, Gilcho, yadayadayada

On top I think this is the year of the Ashman and the Redpath. I think these two are firm favourites to be playing regular rugby this tournament with how they're going, and the future of the team in mind too, without being completely new. Magnus Bradbury too.

Ben Vellacott picks himself to be coming off the bench I think at some stage, although I hope Scott Steele is selected too, he was really reassuring when he played but didn't get many chances.

I think Rory Darge gets an opportunity off the bench, maybe day one, depends on the game plan Toonie wants, but fuck who wouldn't want to see Curry, Barbeary, Willis etc going off against Darge, Watson, Ritchie etc. absolute stellar back row lineups right there for an opening fixture.

Seen a few mentions for Kyle Rowe, which could be a shout, however it's tough to judge because it's not a long track record for him to have earned the place and ultimately defence is a big question too. Throw in Duhan and Darcy being established proven options, he might struggle there.

Blair Kinghorn will get plenty features off the bench, both at 10, wing and full back. He's playing well, cannot deny he's a great player, just haven't found his niche within the team quite yet but he's assuredly one to watch in becoming a part of the core group, if he isn't already, just in a flexible role.

Tuipulotu will be our big carrying centre option that I don't think we've ever really had tbh. He brings more than just that, but I can see Toonie exploring him as an option because of his ability to physically impose himself. Or he'll go Huw Jones or Mark Bennett. Choices choices choices...

The biggest losers I think will be Kyle Steyn, who's good just hasn't stood out massively of late and competition in the back 5 is quite frankly the best it's ever been right now. I think maybe Rufus McLean also loses out here, barring a chance vs Italy or something I just don't see the opening for him at

So in total I'll be reading 6 books for each state. It took me a good while to find all the books I wanted for each category but I've finally done it!!

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

I couldn't find poets for a few states tho so I instead went with a native american historical nonfiction for the states I couldn't find), a fiction, a nonfiction, a historical Nonfiction, and a young adult novel. So in total I'll be reading 6 books for each state. It took me a good while to find all the books I wanted for each category but I've finally done it!! That being said, I had the thought that it might be fun to get another category going- suggestions or favorites from everybody on here. So would everybody give me their suggestions of their favorite books set in each state, or just books that you think would fit perfect with this challenge, please and thank you!! I added my list below. It's a long one!
