What is even happening?

I can't imagine it without Leo, anyhow. Not that I've watched steadily in years and years, but still.

Hip hip hooray for the animated Tick!

I have a list of things this long to get done today....

The evil is this way?

There was a time when that show was Appointment TV for me. It was a better show this year, and I might have continued to watch if Santos had won (I do luv Jimmy Smits). I just hope it ends well. I'm sorry that Sorkin won't be involved in the finale.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I'm not surprised they cancelled WW, although I've been enjoying it more this season than in years. I hope the writers get enough notice to wrap some things up, like, say, Josh and Donna. It certainly looks like the whole CJ/Danny situation is being resolved.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I can't imagine it without Leo, anyhow. Not that I've watched steadily in years and years, but still.

DH was just watching the last episode I recorded for him with Leo's debate practice. So bittersweet. I guess it's time for the show to end, though.

The first three seasons, we literally wouldn't miss an episode. But we haven't watched it that regularly since the start of this season--and the move to Sunday made it difficult for us to remember to catch.

Cory Doctorow: A parasite that causes rats to sacrifice themselves to cats may also change human behavior, making women more outgoing and warmhearted

Wow. That's vaguely similar to a David Brin story. Well, not with the rats & cats, but it's about a guy discovering a blood disease that makes people more philanthropic. So they donate blood more, so the disease can infect more people. Or something like that. I'll have to go dig it up now.

Our wings are not tired.

There is a huge pile of dirt in the park from construction. It's raining and there about a dozen kids sliding down the "hill" in recycle bins and on garbage can tops. I want to be 8 right now.

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

Last night my cell rang at 12:30am. It was listed private, so I didn't pick up, figuring there'd be a voicemail if anyone I'd bail out was in jail.

So I check the message.

Hey A-Dog! Um. We met last night and we had a LOT to drink, but, yeah, I thought I'd give you a ring, my number is (New York number) yeah, it's a New York area code but it forwards to me. So I had a good time, give me a call. Talk to you latah Allyson.

Someone gave some drunk dude my name and number?

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

He probably got your name from your voicemail greeting.
