I went ahead and backed it. I am slowly amassing everything I need for a complete shell swap (and other bits and bobs to mod my deck - last things needed are a bigger SSD and a SSD enclosure to clone the drive/use the original as external storage). If this gets funded, I'll just wait until I get it in May and just not have to worry about detaching the stock screen and reattaching it to the new shell. If this doesn't get funded I'll just order a replacement screen from ifixit.
About ten years ago my husband got a job and our health insurance changed providers (very common here). My second child needed a refill on his control inhaler for asthma. He'd been on the same one since he was initially diagnosed at 2 years old. Insurance denied covering that brand (which was older and therefore cheaper) until he tried expensive brand. Expensive brand was $80 out of pocket, and I am still livid that they fucked around with his health like that. The only way they'd consider covering the original one was if we tried expensive brand and it didn't work. For a six year old. With asthma. Thankfully, it did work but it still pisses me off.
Second one:
Shit happened and my kids and I ended up on state Medicaid for almost a year. My state privatized it and they declined to cover every. single. visit. and now, years later, I'm still fighting for them to retroactively cover visits so I'm not on the hook for thousands of dollars.
When I was 14-15 I wanted a wallet chain, but they were banned at my school. I made one of of safety pins that looped down past my knees. Somehow my linked safety pins were ok...
My elementary school was an old Timex watch factory. It was a "temporary" building that ended up lasting 13 years. The only windows in the building were in the office and kindergarten wing. Last I checked, which was over a decade ago, the building had been turned into a firefighter training course.
So, school being a prison? All I have to do is remember my elementary school days.
My favorite is the 4th one - the one with Sailor Moon and the double headed axe in the hedge maze. Seems the most on par with the homicidal ghosts at the Overlook.
Wow. That's a hard question to answer without giving spoilers - but I will try my best.
The mood changes based on the choices you make. I always feel this overall sense of seriousness because choices do matter. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's serious, sometimes it gives you a good scare jolt, and sometimes it's very gory.
I'm not big on gore, but it isn't gore for gore-fest sake.
I'd suggest playing the demo, but they've taken it down.
I'm picky on my horror media, and this is one of my favorites.
I find this hilarious because you can currently buy a Minecraft themed charging brick and/or cord and get a code for a cosmetic VR headset for bedrock edition inside the packaging. π
