I am so glad that Aimee has a new job, because otherwise this week would suck so much donkey balls, yo.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It looks like the Red Cross/Crescent *was* able to get aid to Burma
Oh, that's good to hear! My impression from the news reports was that the country was still completely locked down.

Me, too. That Red Cross article is from May 11, so it's possible that the Burmese government has gotten all loony since then and is turning away the RC. But if I donate to the RC without designating a recipient country, they can use it however works best.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Re the Obama shirt: The guy who did that is just a class act all the way. His witty, charming, not-at-all-sexist, why-are-y'all-so-humorless? riff on Hillary is even more offensive than the Obama shirt, what with the advocating murder and all, but it's a close call.
Also, the fucking poll crashed my browser. Fuck you, bar and grill guy.

Re the Obama shirt:
Someone said to me the other day (or it might have been a comment in LJ, in which case it was probably a Buffista, and I can't remember who, so I apologize) that they were surprised that I thought race would be a significant issue in this campaign.
All I can do is point to that goddamn t-shirt, without comment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay Aimee!!

I have to say that I got my haircut last Thursday and random people keep going past and complimenting me on it. It's almost insulting - like, I looked so incredibly bad before that strangers are making an effort to come by and say something nice.
If they're strangers, it's no reflection on what you looked like before, right? Just bask in looking so good now.

that they were surprised that I thought race would be a significant issue in this campaign.
huh...I don't get this. Race has already been an issue. Race is always an issue in the US.
