But where does the skycrane go?
Having fulfilled its destiny, it flies off a mile or two away and crashes.
Trust me--it's OK. Kinda' like how spiders and salmon die after they give birth.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

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

They have a computer generated video showing what is supposed to happen, and it is AWESOME. My husband goes into cackles of geekiness.
Yeah. It'll be landing after midnight Central time. I'll be watching the updates.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
See, this is the shit I get myself into. No co-worker is supposed to email me and tell me I'm pretty and ask if I'm single. I don't even make those jokes with your colleague that's hot and has the accent. It's completely off limits for everyone.
And I swear, of all the shit I've been pulling today, I totally did not predictably set myself up for that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
As usual, I have Nova on my lap. I'm just waiting for her to go after my earrings.

Oh, shit! What do you call the group of people that believe they really have spirit animals, and they're a mustang soul, not a human? I am having a hard time working out search terms that I don't mind being stored in the work log from this IP address.

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
Find out why NASA engineers call the upcoming Mars landing "Seven Minutes of Terror"
I've got tix to go see the landing (or really, just listening to people in the control room panic, I guess), but I have no friends so I have to go by myself. :(
Yo Is This Racist now has a call-in number where you can ask him questions on voicemail for his podcast.
OMG I totally want to call in and yell.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
14 light minutes?! That's so far!
Why is that the part that is wigging me out?

Maybe I should have invited Andrew Ti. I'm sure there are no racists on Mars.
