I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

not your mom's socks.

In May of 2010 a young woman, a senior at Virginia Tech, was found dead.

If that's Yardley Love, it's UVA, not Tech. The Post is giving it good coverage.

The Post was also one of the rare ones to cover the Handmaids' Tale Hearing yesterday, though I saw a small link way down CNN's news cycle - WTF New York TImes?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Nothing like editing your husband's obituary.

This fucking sucks.

It does. Can I offer any help?

Yes, Yeardley Love. Sorry - I had Tech on my mind.

Thank you, Todd. It's done. Unfortunately, we're working with a deadline to get it in tomorrow's papers. It will be in the Frederick News-Post and the Harrisburg Patriot-News.

Thought I'd offer. I copyedit. It would have been less painful for me.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

If it makes anyone feel any better, I think they're overreaching and will ultimately have to pay. turning the existing gender gap into a gender chasm will not do well for them in the fall and beyond. But it seems like inflicting short-term pain is kind of what they're into these days. Bastards. (I think I have my outrage on sort of like a virus scan that's in the background...comes on every day, kind of slows up the works but I'm moderately able to do other things.)
