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.
Sara, why do you have multiple SS cards?
I went into the city to try to return two pairs of pants I ordered online but I didn't have the paperwork for one of them, so I brought them back home. Bah. At least along the way I had a delicious pulled pork sandwich (North Carolina style) and bought a few books. And I did return one pair, but they were only $15 anyway, so not a huge deal to get the money back.
Atkins Advantage vanilla shake = soothing. Yay.
Watching Psych, now. Liking Sean more than I usually do this ep.
I'm Stanislav Lem. Now to find out what he's written.
That is the freakiest toy EVER. Perfect for, say, John Waters, but not so much for Matilda.
Is it wrong that I haven't read anything by James Tiptree, Jr that I can recall?
She wrote mostly ultra-feminist SF (as in, manhating feminist tracts), but a few of her short stories are really beautifully written. There's a collection of her short stories that came out some 20 years ago that's a good look at her work. One of her stories (of course I can't remember the title offhand!) is a wonderfully romantic look at true love.
Her most famous short story was "Houston, We Have a Problem," in which a group of (male) NASA astronauts end up in a future Earth ruled by women, and these MCPs have issues dealing with the fact that they're no longer part of TPTB.
WTF is that toy!?!??!
I'm scared.
My eyes! My eyes!
Lord, that's worse than I could have imagined.
It would have taken me a hundred years to imagine that.
Gah! That is a seriously creepy toy. It's a horror movie waiting to happen.
