Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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

After I filled out my questionnaire, I got a summons within a matter of weeks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I would have loved doing it in school. I KNEW registering to vote was a bad idea.

I got a summons for jury duty twice while in Philly. Apparently they're not just going by the electoral roll in that part of the country.

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

Someone is eating popcorn. I cannot find them. It needs to stop.

I want a summons!

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

I just realized I am in a bad mood.

I hope it goes away soon.

I'm eating popcorn. Sorry.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I could have popcorn!

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

Maybe if Tom shared his popcorn with Perkins and kept it far from ita then everybody would be happy.

Aimée, you are a bit too close for popcorn. None for you.

Tom, you're good.

I've been in a bad mood for days. I would rather like it to clear up. But at least I have Acrobat Distiller working.

I suspect my bad mood may not go away until our construction project is over.

Too bad it hasn't even started yet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Apparently they're not just going by the electoral roll in that part of the country.

They always say it's a combination of various lists, including voting, driver's licenses, etc., but I know several people who've been called shortly after registering to vote. Coincidence? Who knows.
