Fay just told me on Facebook that she found Cold Kiss in Bangkok!

I just mentioned it on Twitter, and the foreign rights person at my agency was like, "ENGLISH LANGUAGE, I HOPE?!" Meaning unlicensed translations are a bad thing, but I assume it was in English, so. Yeah, pretty cool!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, and unlicensed translation means they think you're a cool money making proposition, but it is no fair. Compliments should come with cash.
Fuck I forgot to email in working from home. Gnargh. I usually like to do that before 7:30, when I know.

Yeah, that's what the foreign rights chick was worried about.
Can you do the presentation from home, too?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
FDNY is reporting a suspicious package outside. They're telling us to move away from the windows on one side of the building. Not sure if it is OWS related.

"You're occupying a student lounge? With couches and heat and a coffee shop and a food court? Whatever."
Someone should tell those reporters that the point of occupying is not actually suffering. I've been to demonstrations outdoors in beautiful spring whether that included picnic food, plumbed bathrooms in the park, and performance by celebrity musicians. No one thought that made the demonstration less valid. Occupying even a very comfortable place sharing a space with dozens of others for days on end represents a hell of a lot more effort than that Sunday in the park which got a fair amount of coverage.

Stay safe, Tom.
My DH will be at OWS this afternoon doing a teach-in on the arms trade treaty.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
The mainstream coverage of OWS is so infuriating to me. Is it so difficult to grasp that people are pissed, feeling powerless, and that this is what they want to do?
What else might you suggest?
Report what people are doing and saying. That would help.
