Do people even fucking listen to themselves.
Too many assume they don't have to. Which brings us back to privilege.
ETA: Oh, I'm sorry Matt.
Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Dana, didn't you say something about Katrina flashbacks?
Pretty much, yeah. I'm not listening too closely to the coverage.

Sophia, your boss is beyond @@. Someone is going to punch her in the neck one day. And I hope you get to see it.
I think my future giving will be targeted through Partners in Health. I like that it's run by Haitians, not foreigners, and they operate 10 hospitals that are outside the capital and not damaged by the quake. [link]
Today is payday, so I want to donate, and I keep dithering about which organization. My thinking goes, what if they need food and water more than medical care? And then I think, well gosh, I imagine DWB/MSF would feed their patients, so I'm being fairly insane.
Does anyone know anything about Wyclef Jean's organization?
I don't know what the undercooked/raw seafood link to pregnancy is, but with a couple of miscarriages, she might be being extra careful.
There's a risk of parasites in raw fish and meat, but it's also very much a regional/cultural thing. (Pregnant women in Tokyo eat sushi, pregnant women in Paris avoid raw vegetables, etc.)
Great. Now I want sushi.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, Matt. That sucks.
Sophia your boss is full of fail.
I gave to Partners in Health because I am parochial, and they are based in Boston.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Bah, I tried to give blood, but the needle slipped out and made my blood all bubbly and contaminated. That's never happened before. I guess this is why they always use the right arm. I was trying for something different! Stupid left arm.
