"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

"Cat Herder"?

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

Like the suggestions. Now I need to find a way to make it sound uncraxy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm afraid I'm going to slap my friend in Econ tonight. I just had to spend multiple minutes telling her how you find the profit, because she was freaking out so bad about "marginal cost" and "marginal revenue."

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

Lord have mercy.

I was just honest with my boss.

Expect the world to end any time soon.

Tom Scola was in my dream last night. All I remember is that I told him he was crazy.

Which he is, of course.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Crazy like a FOX! A very cute fox, that is.

It could be a week or so out.

Man, I'm going to get a crap evaluation for 2005, but there you go. I could still make most of my objectives.

However, I told her I had tried to be engaged, she smacked me down, so I stopped trying. And that if she doesn't make her expectations clear, I'm not going to be accurate in meeting them.

She thinks I'm a clever little con artist, and really wants to know why I don't con people more.

Monday and Tuesday - ita.

Twice? Was I good? Did I kick people?

Sixty more messages to go. Or rather less than.

Are they not making minis anymore?

Also, I MUST finish grading and am not so inclined.
