    Just checking in after a week off and saw this:

    In that case, almost anything from Sally Crewe & the Sudden Moves' first album "Drive it like you stole it". 12 songs in 27 minutes and it has more car-references than an entire F1 race.

    I don't know you in real life, do I, Niklas?

    "Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."

    I don't know you in real life, do I, Niklas?

    No. I think there's this huge puddle called the Atlantic in-between and I've never crossed it.

    aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

    Ah, I've heard of that puddle. And I dropped a "c" from your name, so apologies for that.

    Anyway, Sally Crewe is a friend and our bands have done a few shows together. I just thought you might be a local all of the sudden.

    I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

    'Timoneer' is a word that er, exists. It means a pilot, I think.

    ETA: 'A helmsmen' actually.

    ETA2: A helmsmAn, even.

    I suddenly have visions of t-shirts that say "Tim Minear is My Timoneer".

    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

    What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

    Like, an actual blog where he records his innermost feelings for the general public?

    I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

    I see so many bad ways for this to go.

    ION - I am going to KNIT this weekend. FOR REALS. I have set finishing my long UFO as a goal for the long weekend. And I think I am going to start on my first pair of socks.

    There is an actual blog. The recording of feelings, innermost or otherwise, is still only theoretical.
