Thrive to spite them

I didn't watch the interview, I read that on yahoo.com.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The interview was taped earlier today, so a bunch of places have articles quoting that part.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Art Crawl!!!

Has there been some oddball change to Facebook in the past several days?

I only ask because twice in the past 3 or 4 days, I've clicked "home" on fb and found a pornographic photograph on it - not posted by one of my friends but posted by one of their friends or possibly commented on by a friend. WTF? It may be old fashioned of me but I think of FB as a public place and don't really want to be surprised by porn when I go there. (I unfriended that person).

I read somewhere that there's been some kind of thing that hacks into facebook accounts and posts porn.

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

I think it's a hack, sumi. And a fucking annoying one at that.

The status is NOT quo.

I think the law only mandates time off to serve; not for mandatory salary reimbursement for time lost due to jury service.

This is certainly true. Teachers can't serve on juries during the school year unless the trial began prior to school starting. We don't get paid for jury service.

Wow, really? That wasn’t the case in the public school system in CT (or in my independent school here.) That blows if you actually get called since my experience has been that the judge could care less that I teach.

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

I need to be forcibly removed from the internet, today. I had to respond to:

Apart from singers, those with romantic involvement with boy(s) in the band and members of all-girl groups, can you think of even one reasonably well known female rock musician? (I can think of only one, but even that is something of a special case.)

OMG I DONT EVEN WTF

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

What alternate universe is that person from and what can we do to send that person back?

WTF^∞

Is that a way to discount rockers who play instruments, write songs, AND sing? Because I can think of a bunch.
