Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

In the meantime, we are describing it with the working label of 'FLR' (Fairly Large Rock)."

Poor Pluto.

I mean, a fairly large rock? That's all it gets?

I'm trying not think about the mother and the boy and the no Amen resulting in a child's death because that shit is fucked up.

I kind of think anyone who commits murder is bugfuck (but not legally) insane.

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

Revenge killing, while wrong, strikes me as too logical to be insane.

It's a Fairly Large Rock. Can't wait to tell my friends. They don't have a Rock this Fairly Large.

I guess I even think of revenge killing as kinda crazy. What good does it do? Other than temporarily making me feel like I got even, how does it solve the ache of whatever loss I've sustained?

I wonder if Fraggle Rock was also a Fairly Large Rock. Or maybe it was a fairy-ily large-ish rock.

Also, could I have an ice cream flavor called "Fairly Large Rocky Road"?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have the impression that insanity is not generally about a dearth of logic. Those cases with which I'm at all familiar indeed seemed to possess an excess of it.

(Though I also regard revenge killing, while abhorrent and ultimately pointless, as still comprehensible.)

It has been the kind of day where I'm going to buy vodka on the way home, but I'll need to nap before I can drink any of it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think killing for profit or bigotry isn't insane. Hatred isn't necessary pathological. A lot of mental illnesses present with religious ideation which makes it complex sorting out bug fuck crazy from run of the mill zealotry.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I've already bought and had my bottle of Riesling, and am going to bed three hours early. Killer cramps, lack of sleep, and nausea do not a happy girl make.

Please let my credit check for my new apartment be okay. It can't be much worse than it was a year ago, and I qualified then. Living hand-to-mouth doesn't lend so well to paying bills on time.

This, I think, is news worth reporting: Coffee makes pain go away. [link]
