Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Have the election results been posted? Did Tiffany succeed in getting elected?

I've been distracted and late catching up on the controversy. And defaulted on voting.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

She was not elected.

Thanks, Dana. As soon as I get my laptop woes fixed I need to send money to OTW.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

She was not elected.

Good. The whole thing was a good reminder to me to keep my OTW membership up to date.

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

Attention whore, whoring for attention: Family, If You Wanted (OFMD, obviously, Oluwande POV of the last 3 episodes of Season 1)

Did anyone on the planet ask for an OFMD/Little Shop of Horrors crossover? No, they did not, including me, but that’s what I ended up with: [link]

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Dana, my lack of sleep is 100% because of your RNM fic "Contractual Obligations." I just finished chapter 14 (SCREAMING FOREVER), and it's after midnight and I have work tomorrow but I can't. stop. reading! It's so fucking good.

Muahahaha! I will share that with my co-author. We are, um, 40K into the sequel.

That makes me so happy, because this is one of those fics that, even though it's >100K, as I'm reading it, I keep telling myself to slow down so that I don't finish it too quickly. But knowing there's more on the horizon is excellent!

Dana! DANA. Holy shit, that was SO fucking good! (Obviously I didn't slow down; I zipped right through to the end.) I was crying with laughter at how this one line just totally sums up Kyle Valenti: "Do I know anyone who isn’t an alien?"
