Always Anti-fascist!

I'd like some -ma for my brother, whom I know I've bitched about as kind of a drama llama, but he is in a spot, professionally speaking...maybe he needs job -ma, or finance-ma? Also, he must chill. Thanks. And if anyone in the west needs somebody with a bunch of insurance experience or a master's in Interdisciplenary Studies, send me some e and I'll put you in touch.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Mom update: her cancer is not an aggressive type. If she takes the chemo, she has a 80-90% chance that the cancer will not return within five years. She will start 12 sessions of chemo once her surgery is healed.

She has returned home from the nursing home and seems to be doing very well.

Thanks for all the ~ma!

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

Can I get some job-ma for about 11am board time? Thanks!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

In the continuing crapfest that is 2012, could I get some fuck cancer~ma for my cousin's wife? She just started chemo for breast cancer, and it's not treating her well. I have no idea what stage it is or the prognosis, but I am heartened that she has access to wonderful care in that socialist bastion known as France.

They didn't tell anyone for a while, and finally broke the news to us across the pond last week. My father just told me tonight--he didn't want to upset me. He now knows not to do that again.

Can I get some ~ma for one of my best friends? In two minutes, she is going before the Senate Committee for her judicial confirmation. She is one of the best people I know, and no one deserves it more.

The status is NOT quo.
