So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

That potato restaurant hasn't gone far enough! I need it here! That marsala reduction sounds amazing.

Single food, single cuisine, whatever. That's why there's more than one restaurant. On a non-potato day (what's that????) I can go somewhere else.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My head is spinning from a research request that can't be answered, but has to be attempted because it is for someone who is arguing in front of the Supremes next week.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'll talk about "[Chief Justice] and the Supremes" in those moments when I feel convinced that the Supreme Court has nothing to do with justice. Which does happen from time to time.

Punishingly Intricate

On a non-potato day (what's that????)

That's the day that does not end in the word 'day', I think.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I'm not sure anyone really lives up to their early promise.

Well...y'all aren't going to let me compare myself to famous people, are you? Because at least one of the ones who lives in my head in fictional form was a frickin' underachiever as a child. But he, um, I mean the fictional construct in my head, thinks I should stop worrying about the past and work on my book, being that he's a major character and would rather see me put him on the page than obsess over past mistakes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The rice pudding place has been around for a few years. hasn't it? Or am I thinking of a different rice pudding restaurant?

Because books.

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

The rice pudding place has been around for a few years. hasn't it?

Yeah, it has. But it's still ridonkulous.

No argument there. I would not have guessed it would have lasted this long.
