Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Punishingly Intricate

I think the doctors are appalled at the thought of a DNR, where I am appalled at the idea that for Grace anything less than an intact survival is enough.

I find it really, really hard to believe that you are the first parent in a similar situation who wanted the same thing for their child and I don't understand why they wouldn't have talked to you about this kind of thing before you had to bring it up with them! As if the situation wasn't hard enough already.

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

Kat, I expect the hospital has some kind of Ethics board where you could bring up the issue.

will inevitably describe a universe in which, ultimately, there is no time.

I suspect that Time as we perceive it is basically a function of our limited perception. We're dim like that.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I just got invited to speak at sonoma state university, which is somewhere up north.

This is weird for us, right?

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

I wish this day were happier for you, Kat. Strength to you in this difficult time.

That's very cool, paperdol. Maybe weird, but definitely cool. Sonoma State is in Santa Rosa, I believe, though there may be several campuses.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

But what does it say?

I tried to look it up online. I'm going to try to grab a copy tomorrow.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ooh - that could be how you make a living. Go around giving speeches on internet communities, and charge money for it.

Hey, if Giuliani can charge a shitload to talk about 9-11....

Sonoma State! And yup, that's in Santa Rosa, north of SF. What do they want you to talk about?

You'd be the cutest guest lecturer EVER.
