OMG that story is so supremely disturbing on SO MANY LEVELS.

I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Anyone else watching Carrier? Connolingus Rice? to the question of SecDef. Oh dear. Snort.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Aww, niecephews all around! Yay!

I can't think of a word that encompasses all the horror of what that article reports.

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
All moved in. Well, I left the houseplants in the backyard. Just couldn't bear one more thing.
Kristen put a brace up for my AC for the bedroom, which is cooling down right now. Need lori to come check on it. I feel the need for an engineer's okay.
Cool shower, load of laundry, then ignoring the unpacking. I have nothing left, energy-wise.
Do you think I can eBay the sponge I used to clean Sheriff Carter's toilet? It would help recoup moving costs.

My mind is boggling over Carrier.

Go Allyson! Did you get my text this morning? Also, you have lots and lots of time to unpack...

A reality series on PBS about life on the USS Nimitz. It's very..well, idealism (commanders and COs) versus all the fucking teenagers on board. Apparently, each ep has a different director/editor (this perception is based on an interview with a local songwriter/performer who ended up with a piece of his being a theme of one of the eps, so not 100%.)
And I say "fucking teenagers" in a fond way. My brother was one of them back during Kosovo, and that was horrifying, appalling, consoling and fucking ridiculous.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Josef F. lived upstairs with his wife, Rosemarie F., who police said had no idea about her husband's other family living in the cellar.
I mean, come on. Not that I doubt it, but just imagine--your husband has his eldest daughter locked up in the basement behind electronically coded doors and has fathered seven children with her--and you've adopted three of them. How fucked is that?
I can only guess that if you're married to Josef F., maybe you have other issues -- maybe domestic abuse and attendant mental problems.
God I had kind of a bad weekend. Broke my drinking-with-colleagues policy and let my paralegals get me too drunk, with hangover to follow and had to cancel my haircut the next morning. Last night I stayed sober at a party and realized I was boring even myself, and just left early. Today I had nothing to do and didn't leave the house. At least the house is clean and the DVR is empty. Blergh.
