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

What is even happening?
Thanks Kathy and Ailleann. I just googled. It looks like they're just having typical rain, and some thunder.
What can I say. We're jealous of the victims of Hurricane Katrina and we make our own fun.
Be nice to my mother, Narrator. Drive down to Flanagan now, and make sure she's okay. Okay?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I got a 404 error on that link Cindy.

Man, Cindy. I wouldn't wear that, but it did make my jaw fall open in bogglement.
The auction hasn't happened yet. Still plenty of time for someone to swoop in and buy me something. Providing you've already earned the moolah.
Or, because I'm reasonable, buy me this.

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

The evil is this way?
Be nice to my mother, Narrator. Drive down to Flanagan now, and make sure she's okay. Okay?
Drive? In this weather? How about I just think good thoughts?
Actually, off to home. TTFN

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Thank you for that link, ita! I tried to read an article about that experiment earlier, and it wouldn't load.
Cashmere, this was the part of that story that really jumped out at me:
The funds for “commemoration of success” in Iraq and Afghanistan were originally tucked into last year’s defense measure, but went unspent amid an uptick in violence in both countries that forced the Pentagon to extend tours of duty for thousands of troops.
It's not just that they've set aside money for a victory party, it's that they set it aside over a year ago, and have just been renewing it in every budget revision. I feel like someone ought to have proposed moving it into the "rebuilding houses we've blown up" fund by now.

The experiment involved for the first time a macroscopic atomic object containing thousands of billions of atoms. They also teleported the information a distance of half a meter but believe it can be extended further.
I wish I understood what that article actually means. I hate it when I know the words, but they still don't make sense to me. I wish to understand.
