Sometimes I ask people who talk about "God's plan" if he might have planned for a certain percentage of people to be homosexual as a means of population control.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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

They are working on different cancer treatments that aren't all about the slash and burn. I attended a lecture by an oncologist a few years back in which she discussed current ideas and trials on cancer treatments that sounded pretty hopeful. She was doing research on milk ducts as an early warning place for breast cancer detection, in the hopes that by getting to the cells in the ducts before they become cancerous, we could prevent breast cancer to begin with.

Now tagless for your comfort.
If we could lactate a cure for breast cancer, how awesome would that be???
I need to read Tina Fey's book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do believe the day will come when we look back and say, "Can you believe we used to treat cancer by giving people poison and hoping it killed the cancer before it killed the patient?" However, that day is not here, and just because it's an imperfect system does not mean that the answer is to turn yourself over to a Mexican clinic that prescribes juiced raw carrots and liver.
YES.
Besides, God made people smart enough to figure this all out and discover medicine and therapies so how could she say that going to therapy and taking anti depressants wasn't God's Will.
That's pretty much what I was going to say. erika, it's totally, "I sent you a plane, a boat, and a helicopter!"
Painted my fingernails for the first time in a long while. It started to chip pretty quickly.(should have expected that with cheap polish.) Have touched up the polish and added top coat. Hope that helps.
Always use a top coat! Relatedly, my boss laughed at my shiny shiny purple nails, so maybe it's a good think I didn't paint designs on them.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Right the fuck on, Allyson!
(I am sorry I have not responded to emails. Things are crazy. The GM communications contact is a good guy; I've worked with him before.)
I am so happy this is finally resolved.
