Anyone know the new link for leslita or sapphicshare?
Just rechecked, it seems like only Kristens Archive from Asstr has been archived, leaving out the others and majority of Asstr
Type "Leslita story" into Google, you'll find the archive. I'm not sure if it's official or complete, but it doesn't appear to have edited ages.
I've seen a few other ASSTR collections around that have been sloppily up-aged, such as having kids 19 & 20 in high school together.
If people were required to be able to read and write before they could graduate high school, there would be 20 and 30 year olds still attending.
I remember reading about a girl that was suing her high school district since she could not read well enough to comprehend college textbooks after graduating HS with a 2.9GPA.
Dyslexia, or was she the child not left behind?
As an aside, I did not grow up in the US and although I'd heard the expression "the little engine that could" I never actually knew what was behind it. A few days ago I saw the expression again and looked it up, then watched an animated film for children from years ago. The bit that got me was the MEC (Main Engine Character) - a diminutive female engine - repeatedly stating "I want to pull a train". I have no idea how old this movie is but I first heard that expression back around 1972 although a web search says it was in use by 1949. Did the expression exist whenever the film was created?
"The Little Engine that Could" was a children's book that was published in 1930 by Platt & Munk Publishers. Written by Watty Piper, Arnold Munk's pen name. I remember it from 75 years ago as part of the Little Golden Books Library. It started with "I think I can, I think I can" and went from there.
Im looking for a story i read before but am having a hard time finding it. I believe it was called Kimmy's Family or something similar. It's about a mom who's obsessed with her daughter but makes a deal with her husband to wait. The older daughter wants her dad and the younger sister just wants her older sister and mother.
