Always Anti-fascist!

My cousin Penny(Whom I don't really know) was at the Gallaudet protests. I also read "No Pity" which has a long chapter on it. But that's kinda like ita answering a reggae question, huh?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Ok, Erin's talk of Suzi and Kelly make me feel like I'm in the wrong place. I should be with her sipping wine.

YAYAYAYAYAY Perkins!

I had a panic attack earlier when I got the mail. There was a thick envelope from the IRS. They have decided that I owe an additional $8,400 on my 2009 taxes. OMG. I think I have figured out what they are looking at and I have documentation supporting the numbers I used, so I'm hoping I can contest the bill without it being too much of an issue. But still...$8,400!!!

On the other hand, it made the $196 emergency room bill for CJ look minor in comparison.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Suzi, don't panic. The same thing happened to us once, except it was $14K. Also, it was our mistake, but we actually ended up getting money back. Still, there's nothing quite like that first shock.

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

Whoot, Perkins!

This is the ring I want a wrist cuff like. Something simple, unadorned heavy. Can't find anything yet. Can't even find the ring on the BR.com website to see if they did other stuff like it that wasn't in the store.

I have two silver cuffs. They're just not the silver cuffs.

Because books.

Just that plain and smooth and rounded? That would be really pretty.

Is this like how I have multiple stripey blazers, but they're not the stripey blazer I'm still coveting?

I just did a quick browse of Etsy, but didn't see what you were looking for there.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm reading Mark Reads where he's actually re-reading Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone and in the comments they're going off on the itchy impulse to sort characters from other shows into houses.

And somebody said Mal and Zoe were in Slytyherin!

And the Doctor was a Huffelpuff!

I can't defend the fact that this annoys me no end.

Like, how could Mal and Zoe be anything but Gryffindor? Frankly, they're way more Gryffindor than Hermione (Ravenclaw) and Neville (Huffelpuff). And the Doctor is the very definition of Ravenclaw!

Share my outrage.

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

I need a weekend away from LA. Where should I go?

What do you want: away from it all quiet time chill out? Or see cool people and cool things and eat tasty treats?

Quiet chill out, maybe a very nice dinner, and perhaps ocean air.
