Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

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

Incredible, yet vaguely disturbing pictures from the opening ceremonies, if you don't mind being spoiled:

Wow.

Most of those pictures seemed to say "Welcome to China. We have a fuckton plus of people. Just so you know."

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

Sweet! I'm almost jealous of you, but I'm too busy being happy instead!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay shrift!!!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

All right! Congratulations, shrift—you'll be working for a verb! I don't know why that thought's standing out for me, but there is it.

Punishingly Intricate

Congrats, Shrift!

I got my nails did and they kept offering me wine but I had to come back to work. So unfair. It's gorgeous out there today.
