Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

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

My horoscope sez: Everyone loves a tall tale, especially when you're the one doing the telling. Maybe that's because you have so much panache and style. You're an absolute original, and your friends appreciate you.

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

This is appalling me. Way to obscure your message with weird-ass casting.

You might enjoy the inevitable parodies.

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

Those are what got me to the ad itself. But I don't have any neurons left to appreciate them, because they're all tied up with the stupidity of the campaign, never mind casting.

Hmm. 12:30 meeting. I should nap early.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Is looking up the news channels on the web any use? That's what I'd do for up to date info about the fires. Also local papers' web sites.

I've been trying that, too. The helicoptors went away, so maybe the visual just wasn't spectacular enough.

I've heard several local newscasters mis-pronounce Mackinac and I know that Boy George is now picking up trash.

I have no chocolate cupcakes AT WORK WHERE THEY'RE SORELY NEEDED.

I think that constitutes a cupcake emergency. Is there a corporate plan for that?

Yeah, it's kind of a weird campaign. I mean, why can't you just support Africa? Why do you have to be African in order to support it?

Is it an "I am Malcom X" type thing?

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

Our disaster planning should certainly cover ganache. I should raise the point at our weekly meeting.

That thing I get, because it's to some degree a state of mind. "I am African?" Fuck that noise. You're an American with Brit pretension.

The ones on the main site seem to fit with their message better. [link] The "I am African" thing is bizarre.
