This is a possibility, although the descriptions I can find are pretty limited. One mentions that the protagonist is a mall-rat. Any guess on when the book is set?

Edit: This was written in 96, which would have been too late. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

Good questions! I think it was short by today’s YA standards - - maybe 200 pages. Definitely not a collection, just a short novel. It was more a historical fiction.

Thanks for the suggestion! Based upon the Wikipedia description I don’t think this is it, but I’ll read it to be sure.

All the seriously messed up stuff aside, this line made me giggle.

Some inside the White House called McEntee’s staff “the Rockettes and the Dungeons and Dragons Group.”

I’m on lemm.ee, but I can see your image. When I try to upload an image, I get a spinning circle as if it is loading, but then nothing posts.

Thanks for letting me know. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong, and no idea how to fix it. Could it be my instance? My app (liftoff)?

What’s up with that? I can’t see any of the pictures hosted here.

I love this image so much, but can never find the appropriate occasion to share it. Every time I see it in my saved photos it makes me giggle.

Green is not a creative color.

Thanks for teaching me. I can see that causing challenges down the road.

For example, I’m always on the lookout for all things quilting. If someone names their quilting community “Fabric Hordes” (not impossible, just look at phenomenon like r/animetitties) it wouldn’t come up in my explicit searches, and is very unlikely to be sought out or found by others in my instance.

Whoa sibling. I didn’t understand your response until I looked through that comment history. Thanks for helping me to look deeper.

I very rarely use YouTube, but I’ve noticed that when I start listening to older top 40 or contemporary bluegrass, those videos drop in
