But I hate Salon more every time I read an article there. Such shitty writing.
We were just talking about that in the car on the way back from an iced tea break. It's gotten mushy-headed, right? I thought I was just getting dumber.

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.

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’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I love hearing about Mac! This is very exciting!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In good work news, I skillfully got myself out of a potentially unpleasant conversation, while at the same time ensuring that my opinions were transmitted.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Bad reporting
Headline:
Study finds risks for the barely overweight Just a few extra pounds can lead to premature death
final paragraph:
But other researchers are not convinced, saying the findings are questionable for a number of reasons, including the fact that the weight data relied on the participants' recollections, which are notoriously unreliable, instead of direct measurements. Also, the sample is not necessarily representative of the general population.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That's funny, Jesse. I wonder if it's true.

According to this article, it's not illegal to be publicly nude in Vermont. Huh.
That's good to know.

The best quote from that nudity-in-VT article:
"I would suspect that if it were OK, you'd see it in Boston," he said.
