Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

You know, Barb, if you're moving north you WILL need boots.

Of a grody gay bar?

When the OWNER of the bar says "On that yucky floor!" you know it's bad. My boots STUCK to the floor when I was dancing there last month. Lay down in it? Just shoot me.

And, this turned up in the paper a while ago. Shows just how EVIL someone can be.

I know the judge in question, and she's a sharp cookie. I'm surprised that this happened in her courtroom.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Bleh. Nova decided to start meowing at 1 am. (Luckily she stopped soon after, so we could go back to sleep) It's been raining all day, and I have a bit of a sore throat.

Who put the Monday in my Friday?

I'm surprised that this happened in her courtroom.

I honestly can't feel any anger towards the judge - I WANT to, but...well, signatures as "proof of understanding, consent, or intent" are so 150-years-ago. How is any legal jurisdiction supposed to be able to prove that forgery ISN'T occurring? Hire an army of handwriting experts?

Absolutely horrible that it happened, and 99% of my empathy is reserved for the victim - but that judge is going to have some harsh eyes glaring at her for a while now, too.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

All Philadelphia public libraries closing until the state legislature passes a budget that will give them enough money to run: [link] I'm pretty sure they closed all public pools this summer for the same reason.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's rainy! Also raining, generally.
