And the hivemind, some seed packets AND A ROOT.
Not to mention that whole husband thing.
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

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

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Our wings are not tired.
We get a lot of that in the comments on the SFGate website from outlying suburbanites. Yeah, San Francisco's a total hellhole. A miserable piss-stained, stabinatin', freak factory.
I see this and raise you Oakland. Every single damned article about my city draws in 1,000+ trolls who just shit on my city. It's a real pisser. It's why I don't read the comments anymore, and I think SFGATE and other "news" sites should just get rid of commenting. It's so rare that comments add anything.

A husband and a root! Erin is ROLLING IN IT.
I'm so excited by my sodastream I want to drink all the fizzy RIGHT NOW! Except that doesn't work so well.
I'm contemplating early bedtime, in order to be all awake and ready tomorrow...lots to do...except that would involve Monday coming sooner, it feels like. Do not want!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, him? I'll see him again this summer, when teachings done.
And I'm kinda not joking. Le sigh. We spend the most "together" time every day inches away from each other...and unconscious.
Speaking of, it's that time. Night, all. Bitch well, and bitch on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Those comments about SF don't bother me. I always think, "Okay, well, more burritos for me and I'll take GG Park and the World Champion San Francisco Giants while I'm at it."

Well I'm speaking more generally about useless comments on "news" sites. And of course the SF comments don't bother you.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I suspect comments are part of their business model generating click-throughs and blah blah.

Yeah, sadly, that's likely true.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

For newspapers? Heck yes. People don't pay for as many subscriptions as they did ten and twenty and thirty years ago and still want to read the news. Papers have to pay the bills, pay the reporters and generate the content.

Yes, they do. It's a shame that endlessly hateful and unhelpful comments are the byproduct.
