Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -Barry Bonds was indicted Thursday on perjury and obstruction of justice charges, culminating a four-year federal investigation into whether he lied under oath to a grand jury looking into steroid use by elite athletes.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

It's certainly more insectile than most machines or larger animals ever manage, that's for sure.

I recently cut back on my Celexa, and I'm wondering if upsets this week and last are not entirely coincidental.

It's your birthday, sumi--go home!

I just realized that I can't go in tonight and ask if I can pick up my paycheck early now that I've ticked off the manager. Damn. Oh, well, I've got enough for the drive out and hotel stay tomorrow night.

I hadn't heard that yet. Should get more interesting from here....

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

Coworker has asked about the prominent Buffy board I post on. Then he said "I met SMG. Wanna touch me?" I laughed, played the moon card, and mentioned Allyson's book.

He kept pressing for our URL, but I told him I liked being insular. His mission is to crack that. I told him the URL is in the book, so he should buy it.

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

Hey! Thanks!

It's still weird, you know. I wrote a book. Weird.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I, for one, will welcome our insect robot overlords.

ita, my mom wants to read the book but I'm not sure I want her finding this board, either.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Nobody at all clicked on the walking suitcase link?

Ack - can't do such fun things at work. I'm sorry you're feeling raw, Theo. I'll run over asshat!dude with my bike, if you want.

I want to give my mom Allyson's book for the holidays, but I'm iffy about her finding here. OTOH, she's not remotely technologically oriented, and is sometimes surprised by the existence of email. So maybe I'm safe.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Mine would definitely be curious enough to find the place and take a look around AND NOT MENTION IT UNTIL AN INOPPORTUNE TIME MONTHS LATER, but she wouldn't see the point of hanging around and spending a lot of time in any online joint.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I'm planning on giving my dad a copy of Allyson's book for Christmas. Unsurprisingly, I'm fine with the notion of him posting here.
