To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Yeah-- we never, ever get anything but COLA-- our "merit" raises are 3%!

I am lucky because a) I got a huge increase at my previous job at the uni and b) I was reclassifie709ooooooooooooooooo9999999999999999987pppppppppp

last year.

Also, I decided to leave the effectsof my cat on the keyboard.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

In academia, we laugh at your COLA. Does not exist. You get your 2.75% annual "merit" raise and are supposed to be thankful.

ETA Except in years where we get no raise at all.

Hey, that's MY job! (And we're not even academia....)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, last year was the first in my career where I got a "standard" pay increase.

ION, I heard my grandmother say "fuck" this evening. I am traumatized. Granted, she was reporting someone else's conversation, but STILL.

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

Sophia, your cat has stretched the board.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

OK, buffalo burgers tonight were considerably better than Play-Do coonsistency cheesy rice last night.
