I thought we were in the Information Age, but that could just be marketing jargon infiltrating my subconscious.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
When one says Bronze Age, for instance, what order of size is the Age?
Thousands and thousands of years. Basically, everything between the Stone Age and the Iron Age. (The Greeks and Romans were Iron Age -- The Trojan War was Bronze Age, but the nexus of Greek civilization was Iron).

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
No apologies needed - I was just like, how'd they know?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
We were in the Atomic Age, then the Jet Age, and then then the Space Age.
Not sure what age we're in now. Perhaps historians will later name it. Maybe the "Non-Reality Based Age." Or the "Pre-Everything Went to Hell Age."

I declare today the Day of Getting Shit Done. For lo, it is ten o'clock, and although I am up and not actually dressed, I have completed two big tasks that have been sitting on my desk for ages and upsetting me, but were, of course, obscenely easy to do once I did them. I also did a minor task, so that counts, too.
Now off to do tv yoga, shower, dress, clean house, and back to Getting As Much Shit Done As Possible before a) going out to visit the land and b) rehearsal.

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

There's nothing like the pervasive stench of burnt popcorn wafting over your cubicle walls and settling around your head like defanged mustard gas.
