No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Because books.

I would vote for the Long Summer, in a heartbeat.

I don't want to live near any natural disasters, but if I had to pick I'd stick with blizzards because that's what I'm used to.

This. I can deal with a Nor'Easter, but earthquakes and tornadoes and hurricanes freak me out.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

We have tornadoes, earthquakes, flash floods, and the occasional brushfire here. Tornadoes are definitely the ones I'd most like to do without.

Art Crawl!!!

Weather is just weird.

We got about 3 inches of snow in under two hours and my best friend who lives 45 minutes east of me has almost none.

For some reason, they sent me another corporate card. With a different number. A month later. I don't even know. Not looking forward to sorting this out.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Here in NC we get the occasional tornado, hurricanes, and once every 10 years or so, some serious snow.

Oh, and an earthquake in 2011.

It's a good thing NC's pretty.

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

Fuck! Where is my Nook?

For some reason I'm really panicky about this. Last time I remember having it was outside. Calm down, ita ! Go sign up for art class and then tidy a little. Shit happens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm cleaning out my closet, and there's at least one coat I want to get rid of, but it is heavy enough that I don't want to lug it to Goodwill! Bah. I mean, I bought it used like 10 years ago, so maybe its life is over. Or maybe I'll just put it in a shopping bag in the alley and hope someone takes it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

so we had high winds last night. lovely.

well, following that, power outages. I have not had power since around midnight. had to leave the house (it was 55 degrees in there temp falling fast, my fingers were getting pins and needles).

there is no estimate as to when power will return, so I don't know WTF we are going to do. We are homebodies! You drove us from our home!

!!

Do we go see a movie? Bring sleeping bags to my office? Volunteer at a bakery? or laundromat?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is great: TNG Season 8

Plots from the unaired 8th season of Star Trek: The Next Generation

Q's back: he's wearing scuba gear and needs Picard's help dumping his girlfriend. Barclay accidentally locks himself outside the ship.

A transporter error quickly fills the ship with hundreds of excited dogs. Worf calls them "fools" and "disgusting".

The Enterprise must escape a temporal bubble before a nearby sun goes nova. Data and Geordi follow some train tracks to see a dead body.

A bounty on Wesley attracts increasingly dangerous space mercenaries. Geordi & Data get in a fight, divide the Enterprise in half with tape.
