Today is complicated at work.
My poor tired brain.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

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

So, Hec, how would you feel about cancelling our land line altogether and just going with our cranky left-wing cell phone company?

But they can nab our cell calls from the airwaves without a warrant or phone company collusion. In fact, I'm sure they're doing that right now.
You know, if I made a list of what I thought constituted a police state I'd start with suspending habeas corpus and the constant surveillience of the citizenry.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
A police state has to start somewhere! They're easing us into it.
(My list would start with control over news sources, but that's because I am thinking old-fashioned, third-world coup d'etat, and not the slow strangulation of that etat. It's sort of refreshing, the old-fashioned kind, because at least it's not very debatable that it's happening. Walter Kronkite got arrested? Yep, that's a coup.)

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
Is Sprint on the list of companies contributing to the police state? I can't seem to get any info out of them by calling.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
We know that every single item in a girl's handbag is absolutely essential (even that picture of Dr Kovak off ER), but Miss Army Kit is set to become the most indispensable must-have of the lot. That's because this fabulously feminine little multi-tool is crammed with essential implements for the style-conscious girl on the go - and it's barely bigger than your lip gloss!
Pink, chic and looking like something Penelope Pitstop might keep in her pocket, Miss Army Kit contains everything you need to solve everyday emergencies, including nail file, tweezers, needle and thread, mirror, torch, scissors, corkscrew, perfume bottle, pill box, mini knife, bottle opener, ruler and pen. Try carrying that lot around separately!

I used to have a bright pink Swiss army knife. And then some bastard nicked it.

Explain again why we haven't yet pooled our resources with Emmett's mom and collectively emigrated to, well, anyplace that would have us?
