Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I had canned chicken noodle soup to which I added chicken and stir-fry veggies. Also hot cocoa to which I added a dark chocolate candy bar and vanilla.

No tots here.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

mmm that hot cocoa sounds scrumptious

hivemind: "It was placed under the counter to prevent its being stolen"

or "it's being stolen"

or should I rephrase that entirely?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I would simplify to "was placed under the counter to prevent theft."

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

But I believe it would be "its," like "He was placed under the counter to prevent his being stolen."

That's what I was wondering: does it own being stolen or is being stolen something it is. It's clear when you swap "he" for "it" that it's the former.

edit: but the note now says it was placed under the counter to prevent theft.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I need potatoes now. Do you people not understand that Saturday was the potato party and I had at least 30 different permutations of potatoes ( plus corned beef and cabbage and pie and whiskey and fernet) and that I should have no interest in potatoes.

potato party sounds like loads of fun. I had corned beef on Saturday but no potatoes or cabbage.
