Scott Adams, ugh. The whole rage-inducing presumption that somehow, society is all women's fault (despite millennia of legal non-personhood in cultures ruled by men, under laws written by men and enforced by men, our cooters are just that powerful--they're culture-building ninjas!) and the freaking creepy evo-psych it's-only-natural bullshit puts me into such a cold fury that I lose all my cuss-words and become Katharine Hepburn perched at the stern of the African Queen, shining with icy contempt: "Nature, Mister Allnutt, is what we are meant to rise above."
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I suppose it's sad when you wonder if the best possibility is some sort of brain injury.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A quick glance across the terraces reveals a sea of flesh and unsightly tattoos – of women in cheap, tawdry dresses and men who have shunned the expected top hat.

What is a "vice girl"?
I wonder of Beatrice and Eugenie got a stern talking to about appropriate hats: they've been very millinarily subdued at Royal Ascot.

It's disappointing. I don't want them to be respectable and proper. I want them to be the comic black sheep of the family.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Seriously. I want Beatrice to show up next wearing a hat with a miniature Lady Gaga figure that occasionally climbs into stirrups and showers her with a burst of glitter.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I admire how your mind works, Matt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Great. Now I'm in trouble for getting my out of office message wrong. I cleared my meetings and told people I would have been in meetings with yesterday that I was out. Oops on leaving Jan 3rd on my "back in office" date.
I'm very thinskinned this week.
