Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

As he should be.

It was oddly comforting listening to an angry Chief Bratton on the news this morning. He hasn't lost a lick of his Boston accent, and I felt weirdly soothed that he was the boss for this reason alone, which is not based in any rational thought.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I just read a report that the SUV was left on the track by a man who intended to commit suicide, changed his mind and got out, leaving his car there.

Yeesh. Though when I first saw the bit about a car left on the tracks, I kinda wondered if Al-Qaeda was finally trying creative small-scale terrorism. So I'm glad it wasn't that.

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

Just when I think I have come to grips with how stupid people can be, someone goes and lowers the bar.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Fucking idiot.

Of course, he was possibly severly-depressed or otherwise mentally ill, but still, there are a million other ways to kill yourself without killing a bunch of other people while you're at it. And whatever happened to throwing yourself in front of an oncoming train while not in an SUV? Stupid Californians - gotta drive to everything.

eta: I hope all left-coast Buffistas realize that last sentence is tounge-in-cheek....

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yeah I heard him on NPR. He lost a deputy who was a 23 yr. veteran, I believe.

Ok, wrong as that is, I had to laugh, because that would be a Texan too.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Stupid Californians - gotta drive to everything.

So wrong, yet so funny.

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

It does, however, have We Used to Be Friends (currently my second favorite part of Veronica Mars).

Mine has that too! In theory, anyway, since I realised I mislabelled EVERY song from the three OC mixes. Have to delete and re-rip.

Mostly, I'm just looking for inspiration. Songs I don't have but like, or songs that I do have, but just never thought of that way. The fight mix started out as the Matrix soundtrack impregnated with The Prodigy, but now it has hip hop and Prince and Def Leppard. It just needs to be bigger.

What is even happening?

Someone copped to it ... let me google.
Here.
Thanks. I'm kind of relieved you didn't ascertain that on your own. The ita mystique folder in my brain is already pretty full.
ita is almost going to become synonymous with google.
"Let me ita this"
Kat, this might belong in the Life Serial thread, but if someone was going to ita something for me, I'd expect blood, and be disappointed to find it lacking.

Did he go to New York for a while after Boston?
