Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm avoiding deadlines right now. Short term, fucking great.

People are talking about the SoCal woman that moved barricades to drive into a flooded area, resulting in the death of her toddler. God, some people. Why does she get to walk away from that level of stupidity?

How are all you CA people doing? anyone live in flooded areas?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Depraved indifference! That's my favorite.

...um. On TV. In real life, it sucks.

I just want to know what was so important that she needed to drive into a flood with her children.
