I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

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

Bad sinus headache. The dog walked me this morning.

Freaking out about my mother's visit. Mostly that she'll hate my apartment and my whole life and demand I come home where everything is safe and in neutral colors.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe you're crying on the inside, Jesse.

MAYBE I AM. That should still not affect my eyelids, though, right??

That seems unlikely? But I don't know your mother....

No one knows my mother. She's exactly like the old school snuffelupagus.

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

Allyson, can I meet your mother?

Jesse, maybe it's just the inside of your eyelids that are swollen.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The potential for an avocado tree OF MY OWN is pretty much the only thing that could ever tempt me to move out West.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Allyson, my mother is basically scared of people who aren't upper-middle-class white Jews who decorate the house in tasteful neutrals. So I feel your pain.

Heh, my mom is coming in a few weeks and I am pretty sure that she will react in a similar fashion. However, my feeling is that her freakout will pale in comparison to the one she had when she found out our house in Salem did not have a bathroom on the first floor of the house.
