Calm~ma to xnera.
May you and the job be right for each other ~ma to Fay.
I have to get back to work. Treadsucking and catching up took too big a chunk out of the day.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I used to wonder if the people who write that even know what "B.C." means. But that's pointless speculation. One might as well waste time wondering who finds humor or comfort in the Family Circus.

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
We should not pander to this nonsense.
Agreed. We're really moving towards a dark age in the US. I don't understand why the zealots were suddenly allowed to legislate their crazy.
I'd like to beat the shit out of whomever it was who left the back door open so the crazy could blow in.

Jessica, I think the NYT heard your complaint about fluff articles, and now they're printing some real news.

Because they were elected into power.
And it wasn't sudden. It seems that way because we didn't see it coming, but it's been building in the background for years now. Scary stuff.

Speaking of zealots, apparently Bush has learned something about sticking his authority where it doesn't belong. His office annouced they won't fight the court decision to allow the 13 year old girl in state custody to have her abortion. [link]
edit to note that is Jeb! Bush

It was me Allyson. I apologise. I thought I'd just crack it to let in a little whimsy. I didn't realize it would turn into full blown craxy.

(The really funny thing? I've seen the Bronx Zoo penguin feeding, and it's crap. You want adorable penguin feeding, go to Brooklyn. Much more audience-friendly.)

I have a plan.
Is there a general buffista name/p-word for the LA Times? Orson Scott Card wrote a commentary piece in it today that I wanted to link to.
