Late chiming in here, and the good stuff has already been said, but Tom should know just how much people care about him.
You can do this, and we'll be here for whatever you need us. Lots of ~ma to you.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm just glad the essay section wasn't part of the SAT when I took it. Writing an essay in a short period of time is not my strong suit.
Yup. I'd have been exploring a career flippin' burgers.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Can anyone else find the recent link to how IQ's have been going up over the past few decades? I am old, and thereby dumb.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aimée, Allyson, I last read this, and is not good.
Ugh, that really isn't good. Sad.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

... back from unneeded senile googling ...
Memorization of facts to include in an essay for testing purposes seems very pre-modern, to me.
(Tom Scola and dcp show the more measurable skills.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Tom, just chiming in with everyone else to say yes, you can do this. It won't be easy, as you already know, but it will get easier, as Robin said. Her "fake it till you make it" strategy has worked for me on several occasions, and it can work for you too. All the best to you.

OMG worst product placement EVER on the OC.
