Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Science fiction fandom is 80 today

80 years ago today, the first ever science fiction fan group, the Scienceers, met for the first time at organization president Warren Fitzgerald's apartment in Harlem (Fitzgerald, the first-ever big name fan, was black). Happy 80th, fandom!

The Rapture will be glittery?

Yep. Glittery vampires is one of the signs of the Rapture.

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

Can you ever know for sure?

sara, is it still giving you that much distress? How horrible. You already went through enough.

I think I'm caving and going into the ER Saturday morning instead of Sunday. Weirds up my weekend, but I'm not doing this any longer than I have to.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm sure Kate Beaton will dig something up.

It's not as bad. But I kind think the other one felt like this before it blew up into excruciating pain.

Or it could just be healing up from all the trauma monday. I guess if it gets worse, I'll know.

Always Anti-fascist!

Better Jesse than ita, Hec. Not that she *wants* to beat you up(as far as I know) but i bet if you surprised her enough, you could get knocked flat that way.

(Bear) hug defenses go pretty quickly to groin strikes, either with knees or hands. FYI.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure I did see him prior to the actual hugging, but it was still very surprising!

Man, I had chili and Jiffy cornbread for lunch, and it was PERFECT.
