Always Anti-fascist!

My brother A. was in car accident today. Think he's fine, car might not be, but my brother worries and he's not always a great coper. Can we get some calm vibes, and some efficient-insurance ones? Thanks.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I'm super nervous I'm going to break my streak of hitting my social media bonus on this article. I hate stressing about it and, more than that, I hate bugging everyone, but in for a penny, in for a pound, at this point, I guess.

Still just 57 Facebook shares away from hitting 400 on my Craftbeer.com article, 3 Overlooked Beer Styles to Pair with Food. And I need to do it by Wednesday. So if anyone hasn't done so already (or wants to do it again) and thinks the article is worth sharing, please consider doing so using the Facebook button right above the headline of the piece.

Our wings are not tired.

This isn't personal except that it's about someone I ME MYSELF adore and assume many of you do, too!

But our Sox won a major literary award this weekend - the (Nebula Award) Andre Norton Award for Young Adult Science Fiction and Fantasy for Updraft!

I am so proud of her and happy for her!

Hey Y'all - have you moved recently? Do you like surprise gifties?

If so, please send your information to Msbelle or me and we can update the Buffistas database.

And yes, I have received a few requests recently for folks who aren't on the list. I know you don't know who you are but you might be missing out if you aren't included.

Please send us (any or all of the following) - your username, full name, e-mail address, street address, birthday (year not needed), phone number, emergency contact name/phone, and any other notes. We will assume that by providing this information, it is ok to share with other buffistas unless otherwise noted.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Please, please, please, all the patented Buffista ~ma, thoughts, prayers, and vibes you can spare towards southeast Michigan. My mother is in the ER with atrial fibrillation.

I'm not ready for this.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We're pitching out product to Marvel Comics CEO today. (Not me personally - I'm here in SF.)

Send us some vibes, por favor.

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

One of the best-hearted people I know, the kind of guy who would throw himself on the grenade for a person, doesn't have a lot longer left in this world. His sister has put up a go fund me to help with the costs that will be coming to them. [link]

If you have a few bucks you could throw there and/or a Twitter or Tumblr or Facebook to share the link on, it would mean a lot. I have known this guy since high school, and if you have ever heard me muse about the difference between extraordinary and accomplished, Terry's the guy who made me think about it, 'cause he's pretty effing extraordinary.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Non-specific ~ma through tomorrow, pls?

Releasing the ~ma; all is well. Thank you.

Could I get some of that ~ma for my friend Terry? He's hanging in there and his condition has improved enough that he's got a chance so there's a lot of hoping and praying going around. He was awake and aware today when one of our friends talked to him and I'm just hoping for the best right now.
