Yum, I just had a chocolate-raspberry cookie from my diet plan that was most delish. A new addition to their menu, and an excellent one!
Yeah... That went well.

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

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, no. It's not satire when your chosen author is a professional anti-feminist who routinely and sincerely spouts this shit.

If I were a man, I'd probably have known that.
It was just a joke! Clearly we're not very bright AND we have no sense of humor! God, can't women do anything right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Everyone knows ladies aren't funny, so I don't understand what you people are getting at.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My god, that's some baconny goodness.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I saw that op-ed piece yesterday, and all I could do was roll my eyes.(I'm also with Ginger on the "make a house a library" front)

New Photocell Eyes Protect Baby Cribs From Kidnapers (Jun, 1934)
This was post-Lindberg-baby-kidnapping (which happened in '32). The fact that people might invent and publicize anti-baby-kidnapping technology might perhaps reveal a wave of baby kidnapping hysteria at the time?
ANOTHER use has been found for that mysterious power known as electricity, and this time it will find favor with all mothers. The photo-electric cell, popularly known as the “eye which never sleeps,” has been mounted on baby’s crib. It watches throughout the night, ringing an alarm the instant anyone tries to reach into the crib.
A light source concealed in drapery at the foot of the crib is focused on the electric eye mounted near the head. All visible light rays are filtered out with color screens, but the eye responds to the “black light” remaining. It is impossible to remove baby from the crib without crossing the protecting beam of light. The watchful cell responds instantly, closing a relay which sets off alarm bells.
Yeah, and then baby tries to stand up and is scarred for life by all the alarm bells....

That's not that different from today.
