Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

The Troy Davis execution...can anyone order a stay or is it the end of the road? I don't know how the state works.

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

I like you, Jessica. That doesn't mean I don't find Jess incredibly irritating. I know I can't convince you not to take it personally, but I see you as different people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG you guys, I am so full. I bought donuts for the office for World Alzheimer's Day, and I keep eating them, and I had a fish taco salad thing for lunch, and I can't stop eating pieces of donuts. Waaah.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Can you beam me a donut? All I've had today is tomato soup.

Not. Enough.

That which does not kill you should RUN

I wish I could! I can't find the donut slot in my stupid Mac.

Donuts aren't cross-platform.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Georgia is one of the few states where the Governor CANNOT order a stay.

Someone on Twitter just mentioned White Castle and I now have the worst craving for it. Nom nom ratburgers and onion rings.
