Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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.

So does the conversation between two conservative coworkers talking about the evils of socialized medicine and "cut and run" qualify as workplace harassment?

Speaking of saving, I need to get around to buying a Chicago Card, because saving 50¢ a day eventually leads to something significant.

Also, for Buffistas who rent: approximately how much of your monthly income do you spend on rent? And how much is too much?

I pay 30% of my monthly take-home in rent. Which works pretty well, it's the 20% on gas that kills me.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Mine is almost exactly a third of my take home, maybe a smidge more. Why the hell am I so broke all the time?

More than that if you have to transfer busses, or take a bus and a train. And I love not having to worry about reloading it.

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

Cookery types--if I use sour cream instead of yoghurt when making banana bread, what are the likely effects? Should I bump up the baking powder to compensate for slightly less acidity? Bump up the liquids to compensate for the thicker texture?

I think I'd take "cut and run" over "stay and pray", but I think there are other options.

What is even happening?

ita, I've never put either in my banana bread. Do you use yogurt instead of eggs?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

ita, I've swapped them one-for-one and not altered anything else with no problems, but not with banana bread (because I don't like banana bread).
