Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Compassionately intolerant

It was me.

Did I redact it? Huh. I don't remember doing that. I guess I'm reaaallly tired, eh?

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.

In Bitches. It's possible that proper context would require much more of this conversation from the last day, or perhaps the last several years, but who needs context?

Sadly, doctors are rarely willing to send home offending ex-internal organs so that they can be placed in easily observable and securable locations.

It was true for me...though my excellent, but lamentably retired now, gyno promised that if it WAS a hairy teratoma, she would take a picture before she sent it to be biopsied. Or killed with fire, whatevs. (It wasn't hairy or befanged, more's the pity.)

I'm sure I can find *something* on Etsy to display in it's place.

Strix -

I'm sure there are many things more terrifying than a simple, wee teratoma on Etsy...!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

From the Fan Fiction thread:

Dana: What about the right of the internet to express itself any way it damn well wants?

DebetEsse: As a denizen of Tumblr and a Tag Wrangler on AO3, I'm going to say that there's not a power in the 'verse that can stop the Internet from expressing itself any way it damn well wants.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

From Natter:

brenda m: Someone in my meeting just used the term "downgrowth".

le nubian: take care to put a pillow on the table first BEFORE you bang your head against it.

sue: It would be a much better use of that pillow to smother the person who just used downgrowth.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

In Natter --

Sophia: I just read a job description at work at it requires a "two year degree in word-processing studies". Is that even a thing?

msbelle: If it is a thing, it is the worst thing ever.
