Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, man.

I did always wonder who posted the "normal" "personal assistant" jobs that were looking for an attractive young woman....until it turned out I knew one of them! This slightly skeevy guy who was a friend of a friend and a freelance writer. He figured, why not get some eyecandy with his dry cleaning? Shudder.

I love how being his "girlfriend" also involves filing.

he does say that he wants a personal assistant who he also goes on dates with. At least he's up front about it.

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

Unrelatedly, can anyone verify or debunk this (NSFW text on SFW image)?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I feel like I should be paying more attention to my co-workers' hair and fashion choices - I've recieved unexpected compliments from three people today on my hair and clothes and I feel really bad that I have nothing to say in return except "thank you"!

Because books.

What now? The aroma is supposed to make you better lubricated ? Or make it smell better?

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

and I feel really bad that I have nothing to say in return except "thank you"!

But that is the appropriate response. You don't have to return a compliment with a compliment.

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 situation room photo made my blood boil yesterday. I was chastised because sexism is ok as long as it is for religious reasons.

Also, I got a royalty statement for $5.35 for Vampire People. I'm still sort of shocked that people buy it. Let's go dancing!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

In regard to the rapture, I have a card I'm sending a friend. On the front is a vintage picture of a nun and it says "After the rapture". On the inside it says "can I have your stuff?"

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Hey, so you know what's better than suspecting your shower has a leak? Discovering at 9:30 that the other shower in your house is not working.

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

One of my student interns baked banana bread and brought it into the office today. I can't speak for the population at large, but I feel same as ever.

Dana, urgh.
