"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

And now they're saying on the news the Arab dwellers of the Old City and East Jerusalem (right next to where the attack took place) are finding it really hard to get back to their homes. I hope they'll get back to their homes ASAP, police sealed the area. It's such a flammable area of the city, and the peace within it based on respect, not fear.

I can still hear the sirens. I'm living close to a hospital, and the whole thing was just 10 minutes drive from me.

And channel 2 news just made me sick, shooting the body of the man who did it. God.

I think it's time to stop feeling bad, read Fables and go to bed.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm sorry to hear about the bombing

It's not bombing, not anymore (and thank God for that). Now it's running-over attacks.

I'd say it's the new black, but honestly, because of where it happened and my great love to the area, I'm not in the mood.

Edit: according to Ynet.co.il, the target was a group of soldiers. 16 wounded.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm glad you're okay, Shir. Fables and bed sounds like a wise plan.

“Not dead yet!”

God, Shir. I'm glad you're safe, but feel awful at what's going on. The fables and bed definitely sound wise.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I have a cat in my lap. (Nova, of course. Luna has made herself scarce, as she often does)

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

Oy. I'm looking for inspiration for a logo for my sister's duathlon, and I come across a clothing (but not helmet) optional event (page is worksafe). Imagine the road rash potential!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Clothing optional sporting events seem counter intuitive to me. Wouldn't you need to uh...support? The idea of riding nude on a bicycle just makes me cringe. Not to mention the black eye potential of running braless.

Park herself, her real-life husband and her onscreen BSG husband, Tahmoh Penikett—are

Yes, right, three different people. It did make me do a double-take, too, though.

And because it seems separate-post-like, I'm glad you're OK, Shir, and I'm sorry that it happened and so close to you. Upsetting doesn't cover it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It makes sense for swimming, wrestling, and some track-and-field sports like discus and shot put where there's not a lot of running involved. The pole vault and running hurdles, NSM.
