Weird. I found a makeup blog run by a woman with a skin tone near to mine--score, right? Her taste in colours couldn't be further from mine. She keeps wearing all these bubble gum pinks that I swear are the nastiest thing ever on me, and she's loving them. [link] Maybe it's her camera or my monitor? She sure has a lot of that stuff.
Zoe: Captain will come up with a plan. Kaylee: That's good. Right? Zoe: Possibly you're not recalling some of his previous plans.

Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

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
Thanks, I'm all proud of my callouses and stuff. And I learned how to tune it without relying so heavily on the electronic tuner, which was frustrating me.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's great, Allyson. I'm proud of you too!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Grumbling here so I don't grumble there:
No, Other Commenter, the five peer-reviewed PubMed cites, published within the last 18 months, that I linked to are *not* refuted by the two 12- and 25-year-old cites you linked to that say essentially the same thing as my five recent ones, only with more general and tentative findings, just as one would expect when looking back 12 or 25 years. Unless by "refuted" you mean "supported and confirmed," in which case, yes, indeed they are. Otherwise, Other Commenter, I'm afraid that possibly ur doin it just the tiniest bit rong.
Sigh.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Allyson always rocked, but now she LITERALLY rocks.

It turns out that once you have had a corneal abrasion, they are susceptible to re-abrading for about a year without you actually poking yourself in the eye violently.
I blinked wrong and reopened the motherfucker. It's not AS bad, but still. I barely made it through today (at least I still have the drops.) I think I'm going to have to take tomorrow off, because staring at my screen for any length of time hurts, which makes my eye tear, which makes it hurt more and I was generally useless. Another funfilled day of staring at the ceiling. I really HOPE this doesn't take 3 days to heal this time.
Fuck.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Don't blink, sarameg. Don't even blink.
(whut?)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Poor sarameg! How do you blink wrong? No, don't tell me, I'll start doing it. You should get an eyepatch and just keep your eye closed. And say Arrrrr a lot.

Ouch, sara. I wish you speedy healing.
I just learnt that fleshbot has been sold.
Good god, it's hideous now. And I say that as someone who wholeheartedly despises the gawker re-design. This is worse. It looks like a trashy porn site. And Lux isn't trashy. I'll kinda miss those naked kids. But I don't want to work out how to navigate that.
OMG, I just remembered the rope course we did at my now defunct MI employer. There was one guy who was stunningly bad. Like, he must have been doing it on purpose level of bad. So everyone mocked him. So worth flying 3000 miles for team building exercises so we could dump shit on him.
We also did team-building through improv.
Who the FUCK think improv builds good business team skills? Good god, the sniping and the backstabbing and shit that improv got me used to...oh.

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
Goddamnit, sara. I'm sorry. If you need me to do anything for you tomorrow, let me know.
