Fun fact, listening to wu tang now is like being in the 90’s and listening to songs from the 50’s

First Stephen King book I ever read was around that age. Through The Eyes of the Dragon. King wanted to write a medieval fantasy novel for his daughter. Personally, I loved it.

That said, if your kid isn’t afraid of a meaty book, It is also a great choice because it really captures how kids can be isolated for traumatic experiences, but can overcome it together. So in my opinion, that made it really relatable when I read it around the same age. It does have that weird child sex orgy in the middle, but reading King is never a good way to avoid reading fucked up shit.

My personal favourite of King though is the Dark Tower series. The Gunslinger is the smallest entry in the main series, so it’s easily readable.

The first and third option aren’t pure horror like It, but IMO that’s what makes them great, because you get little sprinklings of horror, which can make it creepier because it contrasts (without feeling unnatural) with the rest.

Oh you have no idea

Edit: alas, I was hoping someone would say “what was it?” To which I would reply “oh I have no idea” but alas, here I am without any to bear witness

To be the equivalent of someone making $10k giving $100 to charity, a millionaire would have to give $10k.

A billionaire would have to give 10 million dollars.

I was wondering, is there any reason why I should buy the Steam Deck abroad in France instead of in my home of Canada?

So I (Canadian) am surprising my friend (from France) with a Steam Deck in October when I go visit them. It will just be the cheaper LCD version, since they won’t care about (or notice) the difference in quality.

Aside from buying adapters for the plug, I literally can’t think of a reason why I should buy it directly in Europe as opposed to getting it in Canada. It would be a lot easier since I can have it delivered to my address, don’t need a specific day and time for it to be delivered, don’t have to deal with any issues of ordering things in a foreign country (sometimes you need to have a local address to order and have things delivered, etc)

That said, I wanted to still check and see if there’s something I’m forgetting or just outright unaware of. I know there’s specific power requirements for the Steam Deck, but mine worked just fine with an adapter when I was last there in January.
