Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

it's not like their personal lives are a huge draw to the site.

I'm reading some people saying that, and from a quick browse of the site I can't see relationship stamped all over it, so I'm wondering if it's a specific mindset of person who's saying that. There are people who seem to be mad at anyone who gets into the public eye, and that they deserve anything negative that comes their way.

Completely unrelatedly, I just saw an ad for Eureka, and I honestly cannot believe from day to day that Colin had a TV series. That's just so...dude. He's Colin.

I just got a random email (I think it's spam) from a guy who was directing a zero dollar budget martial arts movie I got involved in in Detroit. It was so lame...I had a fairly large part, and y'all might have noticed that I don't really act. But he saw me fight, and he wrote a role for me. I was the only woman who showed up for an action role. It was so bad. I mean, the movie was awful, my role was awful, and my performance was execrable. It was just pain all around. He never finished it, but I do have a couple clips of my suckiness. Good god.

But it was fun. I got my friend P involved, and that turned out to be a good thing, because the other guys viewed me as a slab of fresh meat, and he was the only thing that kept them off me. They were so scared of his 18 year old self. Which they should have been. He was totally bad-assed.

He might still be. He's also married, home owning, and a father now. I haven't changed so much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Or is Rick Santorum such a vile excuse for a human being in general that nobody's surprised he's also pretty racist?

I'm afraid it's this, but I have seen a fair amount about it.

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

I am more surprised that there was a bombing at a Planned Parenthood in Wisconsin that isn't getting any major coverage. Or um, maybe I'm just not reading the papers? It could be the second as well.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Wait, WHAT? I hadn't heard about that either!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'd heard. Seemingly it's being reported as "an explosive device was found" at the Planned Parenthood.

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

Rightwing terrorism doesn't count.
