On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Gorgeous wildflower pictures. The flowers in Texas were incredible, but where I was, it was less a 100 year spring thing than just the usual explosion.

I've missed ALL the desert psychoflower springs, despite having grown up there. They just didn't much happen those 17 years.

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

Young gay apartment complex.

Huh.

Gah! One of the single-family homes in my neighborhood that I covet is on the market. $850,000! good lord.

The circus top room scares me a bit.

I'm sorta morbidly curious what one of the ginormous old houses on my way to work sold for. It went within 2 weeks.

Kate, let me know if you're interested in Tropicalia after the book. I've got a bunch, and it's on the expensive side so I could send you some.

You mean, am I interested in Tropicalia music? I think the answer I'm looking for is "hell yeah!"

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

Any sugardaddies wanna buy it for me?

Well, I'll dig through my seat cushions - if I come up with $850,000 I'll buy it for ya....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Oh msbelle, it's gorgeous.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, man. I think my parents looked at one of msbelle's dream houses in around 1983. It wasn't $850K then....

Go, see.

Forwarded the link to my home e-mail, as I don't think that's going to be a good thing to watch in my cubical, spacious (and window laden) as it may be.

Thanks, msbelle!
