Should I 1) eat it cold, straight from the fridge? 2) let it sit until it reaches room temperature? 3) heat it in the microwave?
1, 2, or a temperature between 1 and 2. I like my sushi closer to fridge temperature.
Hermanos! The devil has built a robot!

I know! I feel just as immature as I was when I was 25.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
as one who has a wrist tat...just make sure you judge the size and placement so you can easily hide it under long sleeves and/or a bracelet/watch/whatever, and it's actually really easy.
And don't move to a place like LA. I can't imagine relying on sleeves to hide anything--at my last place the woman with shoulder tats sometimes had hers peeking out, but everyone was warned in advance not to mention them because she really didn't like talking about them for some reason.
Which meant I didn't want to talk about them anymore, just about why she didn't want to talk about them, which I'm sure was totally kosher.
I can't even imagine wearing a watch or bracelet that didn't have breathing space during the summers.
"Are you married?" and "Are you in the military?"
Fuckers.
Oh, and 1. Sushi is nummy cold.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Bouncing around:
I want a Haast's eagle. I don't know how I'd keep it from leaving, but I damn sure wouldn't have to worry about that big-ass possum eating the cat food anymore. About how big do you think a 40-pound eagle would be? This makes me think of something I saw on Discovery Channel or some place, called I Saw A Giant Bird OMG No Really Like A Huge Bird And It Almost Stole My Kid or possibly a shorter but less descriptive title. Maybe the Haast's eagle isn't extinct, it just emigrated to the Pacific Northwest! That's where all the weird things eventually go, right? (People who live in the PNW, I'm looking at you. And Bigfoot. I know you're hiding him.)
Surprisingly, I've had less caffeine today than usual.

At first I thought this was kinda funny, but by the end just sad.
He's just 13. It's okay if it's little then, right?

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

Yep. Like the tree octopus.

I just learned a friend of mine from high school (and debate teammate) wrote a little thing for McSweeney's [link]

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Jealous. Would love to write a thing for McSweeney's.

Want me to ask Wes how he got the gig?
