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.

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."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's been a while since I've said this, but I fucking hate Tucker Carlson: [link]

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee! Emmett is a cutie.

Hee! So is Neil Gaiman.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sorry, dude. I have a Twix.

Why is it that every time I try to make progress working on our web pages, it takes about half an hour for me to reach a state of existential despair? I think it's time for candy.

Also, I think I have developed allergies. Another one to chalk up to stoopid NC.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

We're no lawyers ourselves, but didn't Tucker just confess to an actual crime on air?

Yes, yes he did. Premeditated even.

How much you want to bet if he hit on me in a bar and I tossed my drink at him I'd be a humorless bitch.

Utter jackass.
