Sue in Natter, on living in an area with few covid cases:
I guess there's something to be said for being small, remote and the economic centre of absolutely nothing.
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.

Even if we take as given that Donald Trump's baseline level of health isn't robust, I am stunned that he got Covid while my father, who is a walking medical journal with about 80 billion diseases AND works at a grocery store, still doesn't have it. I really thought my dad would have Covid by summertime. But as far as we know, he's still fine (or at the very least, aymptomatic), and Trump is not. Blows my tiny little mind.
(I'm not really being nice to Trump, here; I'm just shit-talking my dad.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jessica, in Bitches:
I'm mid S7 in my BtVS rewatch-with-teenager and with a sample size of Just Spike I conclude that bleached hair grows roots when vampires are sad or tired.

Look folks, erotic bakeries could use the business and a suggestively-shaped cake never started a forest fire!

Atropa, on indoor drones:
My #1 question is if the drone is powerful enough to still fly around if I put it in a little ghost costume.

billytea in Bitches, making me snort coffee:
A little off the topic of sex toys, though I suppose there might be a market for one that periodically calls out, "Hey! Who turned out the lights?".

Calli: I loved Justified. Margo Martindale was amazing in S2. I have a thing for shows that cover blue collar communities without making poor people out to be idiots or saints. I grew up in an industrial town (cement manufacturing rather than mining) and there were a lot of grace notes in Justified that read as "home" to me. Only there was an unfortunate dearth of Timothy Olyphants in my home town.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Steph L.: I'm in that state known as Shit, I Am Starving But Can't Think Of A Gotdamn Thing I Want To Eat. Maybe grilled cheese and tomato soup? Oooh, or no, I picked up this yummy autumn soup at TJs, so maybe grilled gouda/provolone and that soup? Hmmmm.
Dana: I'm in the neighboring state, Damnit, I'm Hungry, But All Of My Food Seems Too Complicated.
