You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Marylanders apparently just stare blankly at the nearest person. I mean, honestly, by the time I registered it was likely an earthquake, not them blasting in the ravine again (because normally, that dies off, not gets worse) I still didn't really believe it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hey, hivemind. I am facing the unpleasant (to me) necessity of doing a Gantt chart or some kind of project timeline thingy. Anyone got a free or cheapish software to recommend? (x-posting to business thread) Ta, ever so.

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