What is even happening?

Oh Spidra, I hope your dad recovers well and quickly (and does what he should). I'm so sorry.

and spent the next several hours having fever dream epiphanies that made so much sense at the time

Heh. I hope you're feeling better soon, Plei, and that Lilly stays healthy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I probably got this from her.

She seems okay. She's been hanging out with Paul all day, and I haven't heard any whimpers of distress from the other room or anything.

Hmm. Am going to have to request another batch of Cream of Wheat for self (all I've eaten since lunch yesterday was a bowl of CoW a few hours ago, as until this afternoon, water made me nauseated).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think I almost started a new religion in my head. That was when I was in the bath.

Religion in a Bath! I'm for it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Spidra, I hope your dad has an easy and quick recovery.

You too, Plei.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Religion in a Bath! I'm for it.

Now I'm earwormed with...

...
Oh, the tingling of the scrubbing brush, the flannel's soft caress!
To wield a lordly loofah is a joy I can't express.
How truly is it spoken, one is next to Godliness!
In the bath, in the bath!
....

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

Dinosaurs bit it, penguins live on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now I'm earwormed with...

Me, I've got "Mirror in the Bathroom."

Possibly making no plans this weekend other than Stupid Thesis was a mistake.

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

There's a party for a kravver I could go to. But I have no idea how many people there I'll know, and I don't know the birthday girl that well at all.

And I'd have to leave in about 15 minutes to make the surprise portion of it.

I have a suspicion it's not happening.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Am I just imagining that nuking another country out of the blue would effectively push the other 5.75 billion inhabitants of the planet into direct opposition of the US as a rogue nation?

Since this article by Hersch (one of our great journalists) is based totally on anonymous sources I'm hoping this is just admin spin. An attempt to intimidate Iran, and perhaps to soften the reaction to the actual attack. "What a relief! They didn't use nukes." I sure wish I had confidence in that hypothesis.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Me, I've got "Mirror in the Bathroom."

Good choice!
