I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

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

Sorry aurelia, only one declaration a day, and it is what it is.

Wish it could be different. I wish that i could take everyone with me out of this pit of despair and on to the promised land, but the truth of the matter is, some of us will be left behind.

It's the way it is. No one said it was fair, but at least it's honest.

I can't even.

Some of us are glad you did too.

I knew this in my spleen, and so.

But not all.

Woo! I'm still sexy in Tierra del fuego, and there's that dutch immigrant businessmen's supper club that just keeps hitting refresh at the webcam site.

I declare this moment to be the, "Everyone still at work gets to go home right now" moment.

I already did the skiving off, and to be fair, it is a holiday weekend here, followed by a weeklong conference at a lakeside resort.

But I'm with you in spirit, Allyson.

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

sigh

Ah, well. I guess I'd better get going then.

Uhm, Plei, is your legal last name the one you go by and the one you would prefer to see on an envelope addressed to you, rather than the name you use here?

I use either socially. Everyone else in the house is a Marcontell, so it'd be weird if I didn't. Mostly, I just hate paperwork.

I think what JohnSweden is trying to say is that Canadians self-identify in a way that the last box they are going to check in a list of ethnicities is American, even if it's intended to mean North American. Most of our identity comes from how we are not like Americans.

All you former Nova Scotians come on down!

(I am a very typical mix of French, Irish, and little bit of Mi'kmaq.)

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

Wait, so Gud was being serious? I thought he was being as flip as I was. In fact, I was going to add on Mexicans to his suggestion.

Ah, thanks, Sue. If I'm having an even more incoherent than usual day today, that explains much about work. I resorted to Red Bull, at one point. I should perhaps consider sleep tonight.

Canadian breakdowns by number

Caribbean origins: 305,290

Are Jamaican folks reporting elsehow, because this number doesn't seem to account for, like, Toronto.
