Never underestimate the power of a fuzzy tail!
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Moldova is so poor in wildlife (habitat destruction and overhunting) that they loooove squirrels because they are kind of rare. If you ask a class of middle school kids what animal they would be, many will answer "veveritsa" (squirrel). My former coworker in NC rescued two baby squirrels from a house we took apart - I wonder if he still has them.

The squirrels in DC are, well, spoiled. Tourists can't resist feeding them and photographing them. They (the squirrels) will get pushy about food. And the albino ones in Franklin Square even more so - I was once walking through the square drinking coffee and one came up and practically perched on my toe waiting for me to feed it.

Congrats, Kate P.!
Also to Allyson for finally getting some car-mic justice.
Finally caught up...only to fall behind when I go to Maine tomorrow. Le sigh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had an argument with a squirrel just yesterday. It was the first one I'd seen in forever, and it was just THERE. Staring at me. The balls.

Love these:
12. Amazon has never been just a river in South America.
21. They’ve always gone to school with Mohammed and Jesus.
For some reason, these made me sad:
33. Most have grown up with a faux Christmas Tree in the house at the holidays.
75. The New York Times and the Boston Globe have never been rival newspapers.

I don't even understand what this one means:
The United States has always been shedding fur.
Although maybe it explains my allergies. Fur is being shed everywhere!
...seriously, WTF does that mean?
