If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Or to make her look craxy. That's always worthwhile.

Pulling one piece out of a very serious conversation but:

Shir: I think that we've established that people are totally wrong.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

billytea: I discovered this morning that he understands "Where are the penguins?" in Chinese. My son!

Ginger: It's probably the sentence he's heard most often, along with "Where are the echidnas" and "Who's a little naked mole rat?"

Nora Deirdre: You are not responsible for my mental health!

Steph L.: Actually, I control it from afar.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Conscience do COMM

In Movies, Le nubian discusses dog-whistles for Wire fans.

I just want Obama, one of these times, to come out whistling "The Farmer in the Dell."

Then I will know it is on like Kong and I need to pack up the food and my electronics and hightail it to Canada. ETA: Edited to add the correct Wirefiend Buffista.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Oh...my apologies. Kat and I talked Wire before so I got confused. Sorry, le Nubian.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Great News: Just found out my friend D (who helped me find my apartment) gave birth today. Her 2nd kid, first girl! No name yet. Don't know details, except mom and daughter are both fine. And daddy is melting when baby girl is in his hands.

That doesn't sound safe.

Not for daddy, but daughter lands in a soft puddle of goo.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

In Natter --

JZ: In other random bzuh?: At the birthday party we just came back from, everyone got little gift bags that include a Jungle Fun Fun Pad, a little preschool-level activity booklet full of simple mazes and connect-the-dots tiger cubs and so on, but also including "Mix The Animals" pages, mostly blank sheets with a prompt at the top to encourage the child to do hir own creative work. The prompts are...wrong.

"Daddy Elephant Meets Mommy Zebra. What does their baby look like?" Uh, I don't know, like an abomination unto God?

"Daddy Lion Meets Mommy Monkey. What does their baby look like?" WHAT. THERE IS NO BABY. THERE'S JUST A SATED-LOOKING LION WITH A MONKEY-SIZED LUMP IN HIS GUT, YOU SICK FUCKS.

WTF, Jungle Fun Fun Pad? You make me feel unclean.
