Boston is superbly lovely this morning! You are correct.

I think your house placements are spot-on. Jayne absolutely would have been a squib.

I was unnaturally nervous when I got to the Sorting Ceremony on Pottermore. I'd taken online sorting quizzes before, but I was like.. JK Rowling is involved. This is OFFICIAL.

Because books.

Jayne would want to be in Slytherin, but he'd turn out to be a squib.

Oooh, yes!

I think I'm not as shocked by the horse story as I should. If the animal was diseased (something like an equine mad cow, maybe?), couldn't it get that aggressive?

Well, you could bookmark it for later, I guess. And what story is it? There are, after all, LOTS of ridiculously long HP stories out there.

Commentarius by B.C Daily. It's Mauraders Era, all told from Lily's POV as she's more or less writing in her diary. It's very funny and very sweet, but Lily is the most neurotic person on the planet.

I'm a little surprised at the meat-eating aspect for a hoofed animal, but certainly not by evidence that there have been a handful of aggressive horses that intentionally chased people down to kill them in the past.

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

If the animal was diseased (something like an equine mad cow, maybe?), couldn't it get that aggressive?

But they're not diseased. They're talking about individuals and communities of carnivourous horses, some of whom did their own hunting.

I love the idea.

I don't have the HP sorting gene. I really don't care what house anyone ends up in, and stare in amusement at other people who can get quite emotional about it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK.

The released my brother today. No meds. No place to stay. The let him walk out the fucking door. He has no place to stay. They told him to go to the homeless shelter which doesn't open for seven hours. He has no money.

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK?????

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ah, jesus, Cashmere. What the fucking fuck, indeed.

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

Oh Cash. I'm so sorry this is happening. I don't know what else to say.

Amy - Sep 16, 2011 7:00:48 am PDT #26591 of 30001

Because books.

Jesus, Cash. What the hell?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Apparently, he was able to convince the doctor that he was "stable" by acting appropriately. He refused all mental health treatment and meds.

I want to go fucking bash heads right now.
