So, apartment is clean. Girl is enroute. I called in sick to work this morning because I couldn't sleep last night, work up tired as hell, and after yesterday's meeting, my motivation to actually go into work was non-existant.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I was reading a book about the tactics of the Nazi Party in the Weimar Republic last night (which were, of course, mainly about consolidating executive power over legislative power and selling the general populace on the idea of scapegoating minorities) and breaking out in a cold sweat at some of the parallels employed by this new, weird Bushian branch of the Republican Party. Typical liberal stuff, I know, but lately I've been feeling more and more like Kurtz sometime before the story, gazing at the Heart of Darkness while it gazed back at him. I think I need a new job at the very least.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I thnk the moral of the story is, "Come to Canada! We will kill your babies and marry your gays!"
As opposed to "Come to our back-water polygamous town!" where they would do the exact opposite.

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
That sound you just heard? Was my cousin exploding in rage and frustration in Sioux Falls.
Send her an e and let her know that I'm channeling my gratitude in her direction.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I do not want to be this close to a "Gus sighting" and an abortion debate.
For the record ... it wasn't me. I wasn't there. However, I will take the deduction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sarameg, my mind is boggling at the thought of how small the population of SD is. I'm so used to big cities.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
That news item makes me ill on behalf of all the women in South Dakota (and, no doubt, eventually the other 49). Thank God both my senators voted against both Roberts and Alito, though this means I can't even call their offices and bitch them out about it, and I know from sorry experience that politicians in other states tend to not give a shit when they get angry calls and letters from outlanders.
