Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

It seems like a really specific speed-date topic, though.

Because books.

I probably wouldn't mention it then, but what do I know? I married I guy I met was seventeen. If he croaks, I'm toast.

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

Why is wanting a husband and kids at 38 any worse than wanting them at 25?

I wouldn't feel safe giving birth to a kid at 38, but I'd probably make a reasonably unEvil Stepmother.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Allyson, my twin sister had a divorce and another bad ending to a five year relationship before meeting her awesome husband four years ago and finally getting pregnant. Crazier things have happened!

I am totally down with that.

I have a childhood friend in SF who is promising me cuties if I come up and visit him. SF--so many reasons to go, and yet I never seem to.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Or adoptive mother? I mean, you've still got plenty of good options!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I don't really have a "bucket list", though there are some things I'd like to do.

Crap. Olivia just came in and asked me if I could "tell her the story of Jewish people--the WHOLE thing" tonight at bedtime.

I knew being an atheist was going to bite me in the ass someday.
