Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

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.

I hope that I don't start craving brains later.

That would be offal.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I will be content if no Buffistas make the national news.

In related subjects, I dreamed this morning that Tom Scola martyred himself for the cause of Ukrainian independence, in a particularly nasty area of street-fighting. I think I was actually listening to a Beeb report about Kosovo's declaring independence, and the fact that Russia doesn't like it, but... somehow that turned into sitting around a hotel conference room in a slavic country reading news reports and watching TV waiting for a glimpse of people we knew.

Scola, please don't martyr yourself! We prefer you alive. Ukraine doesn't need any more independence anyway.

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

Scola, please don't martyr yourself!

OK, I'll try not to, I guess.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I can haz crawling?

(Holy fuck we REALLY need some baby gates...)

That would be offal.

I lack the mental acuity to appreciate puns. I think this means that I should start snacking on your brains first.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The mobile baby!!

And he can go forward! (D couldn't at first. Kept ending up stuck under the couch with only the top of his head sticking out.)

He's a charmer, Jess.

Because books.

Oh, Jess, the videos kill me. And he's all, "Why is Daddy WAY UP THERE, damn it?"

Baby gates are probably a go, yeah. Cutiehead.

OK, you know what I hate? When the "hotline" that's supposed to help me figure out this inscrutable government website keeps hanging up on me. I mean, seriously. WTF, government??

Yeah, all babies go backwards first - it's easier to push back with your arms than the other way around, I guess. Forward mobility is pretty exciting! And scary!
