Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

if the daddyo site gets in the sizes I need

God, yes. I want this and this. I also need this quite a bit.

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

I need this and this.

Neither of which go with bacon.

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

I wish i could wear fitted things!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wish that stuff weren't polyester -- no way I could order any of it without touching it first.

That top has an ACTUAL KEYHOLE NECKLINE. How cool is that? I sent an email off asking about availability, but nothing back yet.

Now tagless for your comfort.

flea, precisely why I tried to plan my pregnancies in fall/winter--succeeding both times. Nothing says preggo better than a nice, comfy turtleneck sweater.

I want my flowers, candy, and free lunch.

Yeah, that top is super-hot. And I love that they say what size the model is wearing -- that's very handy.

If you hear back from her, would you please let me know? I've sent two emails in the past week, but haven't seen a reply. (I ordered a dress almost 4 weeks ago; she emailed me to let me know she was back-ordered, but that she should be able to ship out the dress in a week and a half. That was on the 5th. And I really, REALLY am looking forward to wearing that dress, dammit.)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

From Digby via ThinkProgress:

The latest FDA “science” being used to block over-the-counter access to the emergency contraceptive Plan B: one agency researcher said the drug could “lead adolescents to form sex-based cults centered around the use of Plan B.” Back in reality, peer-reviewed studies have debunked this point, and also shown that 1.3 million abortions could be prevented if Plan B were available without a prescription.

"Sex-based cults"?

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

There's so much crazy in there, Kathy, I'm amazed you were able to latch onto just one phrase.
