Complete hatchet job of Mahatma Gandhi. I kinda wish I hadn't read it.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

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

The NYT review of the same book wasn't nearly as bad. A lot of that, I think, is the reviewer's own projections.

I don't think people should be mean about Gandhi. I also don't think he should have erections. I don't care to be rational on that front.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hot stockings.
Huh. It turns out that for me, stockings, like tattoos, shouldn't have words in them.

See, if they had only said "bite me", then I would have coveted a pair unreasonably.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Argh. Got a notice on my door that the water will be off for 8 hours on Monday. I should probably find something to do away from the house then. And do laundry now.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I *love* 311. They know everything!
The only time I regretted calling them was during the first "maple syrup smell" event a few years back - they immediately transferred me to 911 because apparently odors are considered emergencies no matter what, and then I felt really guilty for wasting the 911 operator's time. (911 transferred me to the fire department who thankfully did not dispatch anyone because I was the zillionth person they'd spoken to that night about the exact same completely harmless odor.)

Whereas I'd have liked them better if they only said "whip me."
I already have one pair of wordy stockings. They amuse me, although they don't get worn near often enough.

Because books.
I want some more thigh-highs.
I also like tattoos with words. My next one is going to have words, when I can get around to it.
