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

Unrelatedly serially, Colin and I like to gross each other out, but sometimes the mere fact of his fandom existing makes me unduly delicate. I will not let him know I have this weakness.

I decided I should find something with him in to re-tumbl, and the first result?

i’d bang colin ferguson so hard man he’s like the sexiest 39 year old ever

Now I'm off my game. If there's Colin butt here, I'm going to set someone's desk on fire.

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

People tell me I sound tall. And that I post tall. People are surprised that I'm short when they meet me. :/

Allyson, I get that, too. Everyone thinks I'm taller than I am.

No one *ever* tells me what they expected. I have a bit of a suspicion that maybe I sound white, and that overrides everything else they might have said.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Intellectual giant?

I'm not commenting on Republican craziness--except to say that hopefully, the recalls will work in Wisconsin and we can sweep some of the insanity away.

I am Allyson and Jilli. And also Snake Plissken.

Unrelatedly serially, Colin and I like to gross each other out, but sometimes the mere fact of his fandom existing makes me unduly delicate.

I mean, apparently I'm a secret prude or something, but I find this an eminently reasonable reaction.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The only person who ever thought I'm taller than I am is my husband. True story.

The status is NOT quo.

I get that too, and you all just made me think of one of my favorite Ani DiFranco songs, “Evolve":

I walk in stride with people
much taller than me
and partly it's the boots but
mostly it's my chi...
so I walk like I'm on a mission
cuz that's the way I groove
I got more and more to do
I got less and less to prove
it took me too long to realize
that I don't take good pictures
cuz I have the kind of beauty
that moves

Love Ani.

Oh! Congratulations juliana and M!

And on the Brietbart front, it turns out his widow is one of my old classmates. I know she is well supported right now, but even so I can't help thinking how angry-making those accusations of his assassination must be. For her sake I hope those voices don't go on for too long.

Congratulations, juliana!
