Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Is there an official chart someplace?

Nah. Just an XML document.

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday Kathy! Note the lack of 39 jokes.

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

Is there an official chart someplace?

I think if you put that on the To Do list in Building, ita will get right on it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Birthday Happies to Kathy and Raquel!

If you guys hadn't been talking about Friday, I wouldn't have realized that Easter is this weekend. Somehow, I'm always in tech on Easter.

That'd be easy. We just need to figure out how big a box you need to stand on.

Gus is tallest. Who's second-tallest? Is it 6' 3" me? I was thinking there was someone else taller than me besides Gus.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, well, doncha know, Scott McClelland was asked about it yesterday and he pooh-poohed the whole thing. Because, you see, that was a WHOLE OTHER BILL that actually created a whole mighty wall of additional protections for the patients, and the issues at hand could not possibly be more different, handwavey handwavey, hey, check out that herd of thundering flabotanum!

If that distraught mother in Houston could just try to follow the talking points, she'd understand.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

What I don't get is, ok, she had 10 days to find another facility to put the baby. How could other hospitals turn her away? Her baby needed that ventilator - it was a matter of life or death - how could they legally turn her and her son away? Does the new law negate the law that says noone can be turned away from a hospital? I mean, what the hell? And, doesn't that law sort of negate the Hippocratic oath?
