My favorite Butler comment is
"Is this going to be on the final?"
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

"Is this going to be on the final?"
BWAH!
I wish I was still in touch with my favorite professor from writer school so I could talk to him about this. I'd love to hear his unfiltered take on it.

The NPR story was as expected. I was not surprised to hear that Dewberry did not approve of the text of the email in advance.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I do still think that Dana looks like a hobbit.
Whereas I have completely forgotten I used that picture on WX until someone mentions it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She looks like a lightpost to me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yeah, that's also true.

I am a person. A PERSON!
Of course, if you know me on LJ, I suppose I'm a Japanese god.

I can't even picture your default LJ icon, which is bizarre. I guess because there are so many more posts by each person on a message board.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thanks for the bed advice, everyone! I have taken notes and shall go out hunting forthwith.

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
Oh yeah, every time I see that hobbit I think of Dana.
