S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I saw that, Jesse. It certainly makes me respect Washington a lot less, but go TR for coming out.

Baby panda is NOT dead. In fact, it's pretty pissed off.

Oh man, the picture of the panda that's with that link shows it gnawing on a carrot stick. I shouldn't find that as funny as I do, should I?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

On a related now, how on earth do you raise five boys in a Manhattan walk-up? My god, use some prophylactics.

SA, they have the biggest apartment I have EVER seen in this city -- the kind of loft where the elevator opens right onto your front door. So I think the answer is "marry (and be) an architect and have oodles of money."

I'm totally watching Top Chef!! In fact, I've already started. I loved both the first quickfire AND the first elimination challenge.

Wait, I missed it? Damnit, I thought it wasn't starting until Wednesday! (Fortunately, it's on a network that only has 5 shows, so I should be able to catch a repeat.)

Because books.

Jessica, the premiere of Top Chef was right after the Project Runway finale. But yeah, they'll run it approximately seventy-two times again before Wednesday.

Exactly. And yet, I spotted IKEA stuff all over the apartment!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was thinking I could move into a corner of that apartment, and they wouldn't notice for months, if ever!

That would be cool.

Except for the turtle poop.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I wonder if the thinking there is "we have five boys living in this apartment - if we have some furniture that won't be heartbreaking to have damaged, that might be a good idea."

I have the day off today. I'm debating whether or not I want to be super productive today and a slug tomorrow, or vicey-versey.

Yeah, I saw how big it was on the one before the finale, but still! I mean, it must have been converted warehouse space or something; but when I think 5 rambunctious boys I think huge farmhouse in upstate new york, you know? It's definitely a great place for them to grow up in, though I wonder how much the kids will like it when they're teenagers...

Except for the turtle poop.

Tim's reaction was HILARIOUS.

I bet it is. Same with the random punching equipment--what can all of your kids play with, that is not easy to damage, and can be used as jungle gym for the smaller ones too? Answer: punching bag!
