but ofc the reason kris isnt communicating and is drawing themself back is bc theyre in the Hell Situation and betraying everyone around them and think theyre doomed to die or worse and so on. the way kris shows love is through distancing themself from everyone around them, bc they think they can only hurt people by getting close to them. kris almost certainly started this whole thing planning to never befriend susie and never reconnect with noelle and just cleanly get the plan over with and then die in a ditch and be forgotten forever. the fact they want more than that, now, is Hurting Them Badly.

bc they are a stupid teenager trapped in the torment nexus they are not handling this with open communication and expression of their needs. instead, they keep turning away and hiding and hoping so, so bad that someone catches them. but because susie is a good friend and because susie is scared to demand more than she has been offered, and because noelle is a good friend and because noelle is scared to break something fragile and already half-broken, no one is pushing them the way they want to be pushed. kris is so, so loved, and if they reached out, they would be helped. but they can't reach out, and no one knows to reach for them.

The FDA has upgraded an egg recall issued last month to “Class I,” its highest risk level, as it warns the public that consuming the products could cause “serious adverse health consequences or death.”

The recall of 1,589,577 dozen white-shell eggs and brown cage-free shell eggs was initially issued by Midwest Poultry Services in late July, which warned they might be contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis.

According to the company, the eggs were produced and distributed from farms in Texas between June 6 and July 3 and have sell-by or best-by dates between July 20 and August 17. The recalled egg cartons have either the code P-1950 or 0840962 and Julian Dates between 157-184.
