No goats were harmed by exclusion from this book.
Wash: Captain, didn't you know kissin' girls makes you sleepy? Mal: Well sometimes I just can't help myself.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Coding and Sleeping
So basically, every story is set in the world without goats?

Because books.
In all seriousness, I like the idea of "dark" or "darkness," but, you know, I proposed it, so.
There are a million things we could toss out there, though. Anyone want to throw some ideas out here and we can compile a list?

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm not anti-goat...I just couldn't write about one. But one of my favorite books in the world Even Cowgirls Get The Blues has many in it.

"what's left when you take biology and sociology out of the picture?" "An autistic hermaphodite." -Allyson
How about a monkey riding a goat?
...for the cover, I mean. Or, y'know, just as an idea in and of itself.

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
Can we also compile a list of Buffista writers?
There's me, Amy, Jilli, Hec, Deb Grabien, erikaj, Barb, Burrell, Connie Neil, Gud, erinaceous, Miracleman...
Old school Buffista writers are Rio, and I think we had an NYT reporter. Unsure who else is doing writing off the top of my head, but there's that.
Themes could be Buffistas related, like Raising the Stakes, Champions, blah blah television.

Because books.
Also Knut, right? Or am I misremembering? David something who wrote the superheroes book?

Was that Knut?

It was another David? I'm not sure. I still want to get that book, though, whoever wrote it.
Here are some words I like that I think could be interpreted a lot of ways, and which would suit us:
dark
power
self
community
hero
face

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yes, Knut wrote the superhero book. David Schwartz.
