Much peace to you and yours, Burrell. Godspeed to your MIL's spirit.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The rape apologist guy got banned from IO9. Which, actually, I think was overreacting. He was a monstrous idiot and I was never going to speak to him again, but he was civil and polite and mostly stayed on sci fi topic.
But his insistence on ignoring evidence provided to him and the fact that I think he just offended people with his beliefs got him tossed by one of the member mods.
It's not that often a starred commenter I recognise gets booted. I'd even had him hearted until this discussion got started.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

The power to garden is the power to destroy. Use it wisely, Erin!
During my ultra-extra-busy-week, my maple trees spouted leaves, nearly full-grown now? On the brighter side, I have lilacs, which because the neighbor cut back said maples, have bloomed the best that I can remember.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
The power to garden is the power to destroy.
Especially if I do the gardening.

I'm so sorry, Burrell. I'm glad your MiL had so much time with all of you.

I really really have to buy toothpaste today. I've been putting this off for weeks. I can't work out why. Other than it means a trip to the vitamin store. But I've passed the vitamin store a million times in the past two weeks. I am the laze.

Ha! Manfighting guy accused me of lying because I said "martial arts careers" and apparently you can't have one in krav because there are no competitions.
Do some people just not check to see if they're wearing pants before they leave the house?
