Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Whoa! Moonrise over the Ghost House

Also, I went back and added more picture links in that post that I think you would like, particularly the Sisters of Mercy shot.

That one was gorgeous.

Mortician's Parlor in a Ghost Town!

Ahhh. See. It's an aesthetic sensibility.

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

Hey, Jilli--what's you and Peev's schedule like these days?

Er, I don't know? Kinda-sorta open at the moment, I think? (Is that vague enough?)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Totally. Dan and Casey = OTPiest.
This? Making me watch Right Now.

Hee. Totally! We'll just be up for Adult Interaction at some point soon, and would love to see you guys. Plus, then you can see the New Car.

I shipped them before I was a slasher. They're so freaking married.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Eyeliner is awesome. I need to learn how to apply it better, but even half-assedly put on it makes my eyes look so much better!

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

I would still contend that Cindy's argument is correct. That basic human decency would suffice to compel most of the people here to rise above what ever limits of energy and selfishness they see in themselves. If they had to.

This is Hec stating your position, but you didn't refute it. I disagree with it. Here's where I came to my conclusion based on your words:

I call bullshit. There are too many bad parents out there to safely make that assumption. And a "Well, Bitches would rise to the occasion" rejoinder gets a "Bullshit" reply from me too. You just don't know. Being a good person doesn't ensure being a good parent, and being a Bitch doesn't either.

Strictly speaking ita, you're right. I can't know who here is a decent person

Why did decency come into it, then, if you're not somehow responding to (nay, challenging) what you quoted of mine? I say you don't know if someone's going to be a good parent, and you say you don't know who's a decent person--is that a parallel construction, then, and not equivalency? If it is parallel, how is it applicable?
