Congratulations, Connie!
Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
somehow I missed the previous mentions.
That's why Esposito called her Honeymilk, because there'd been a mention of him feeding her warm milk in episode 2. And there were a couple after that.
Busted again for doodling during meetings. But I have an awful "Carry On My Wayward Son" earworm, and I thought drawing Winchesters would at least get the stupid look off my face.
At least I got to sass the guy who flipped me off, and sassed him hard.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Me too, Hil. Some Tuesdays, The Office repeats seem like a less...fraught choice. Although I do like TGW...that "family starting over" thing hits home, sometimes.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I got to tell the two developers in the meeting today that they were engaging in a "geek spiral." I felt all Eliot for a second. Leverage jokes, party of one...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Interesting graphic, showing the US nutritional recommendations compared to subsidies. [link] (Basically, recommendations are to eat mostly grains, fruits, and vegetables. Subsidies go almost entirely to meat and dairy, some to grains, and almost nothing to fruits and vegetables.) There's also a chart showing how prices of different foods have changed since 1978 -- soda and meat have consistently gone down, fresh produce has consistently gone up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
AH! I caught the honeymilk reference when it happened, but I forgot.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats Connie!
