You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Like, fifthing, because that's something I can get behind. We can hammer out the details in lightbulbs.

Unrelatedly, we're gonna need a new thread title for b'crazy soonish!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm saying Yea. Or Yay.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

We could blow shit up. Um. I mean, if we wanted to. Hypothetically. I don't actually have any current incendiary device plans.

Okay, maybe it's not like the UN.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Your weapons are for peace, Liese.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Seconding, if that's still needed.

What is even happening?

Just to clarify for Jessica (and anyone else), I didn't mean "faux democracy" to be derogatory, or that our democratic process is bullshit. I just meant it as.... I'm not sure I know how to put this.... I guess, "our little version of democracy." That's all.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Faux democracy? How is counting votes and going with what the majority wants "faux" democratic in any way?

Well, there's no preferential voting...

Our wings are not tired

I think ND was serious with this proposal:

Yes, I actually was. Sorry, I had to teach a class and just got back here.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I'm sorry, Drew, I can't second that proposal because I don't think it does anything overall for bolstering thread discussion. If it was one or the other, I'd probably consider it, or if you were proposing a more wider-range of shows around a theme. But I don't see the point of a two-show thread with no major ties, as opposed to Joss or Tim show threads, or some kind of qualification like gritty original dramas, or procedurals.
