Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I need Billytea to tell me everything he knows about bats. And then I need to visit a roost.

Planning a little suprise for the physicists?

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

Mexican free-tail bats! That's my bat! D should take lots of pictures and send them to me.

Blargh. Somebody make me answer e-mails and return a phone call to a recruiter. I used up all my motivation this morning by going to an interview and certifying for unemployment benefits.

Hey, if they do get any good pictures, I'll send them to you for inspiration!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Mexican free-tail bats! That's my bat!

This is hilarious.

Sara, are those the same bats as they have in Austin? Under the bridge by the Statehouse?

Same bats. But they will roost with other species of bats. They're not speciesist.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Bats are cool.

As well as noble, open-minded and well-adjusted!

Too bad about the bug breath, really.
