Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

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

Uh, the carat doesn't work to make a quote anymore?

Do you have a customised stylesheet? It still works in the default view: [link]

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Huh, I don't see the quote formatting either. I...will have to figure out what I did to my stylesheet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure I've never customized anything, but maybe? I'll go look back at your Press post.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I never touched my style sheet, and I can't see the quote formatting either.

No, the only thing I've done is apparently make the text smaller.

Yeah, I don't have anything customized that would affect the quoting. I think something went funky.

All my customized sheet has in it is

img {display:none}

and the carat quoting isn't rendering for me either...

If you were writing a light-hearted anecdote, would you say "nationalist" over "patriot" when describing the guest of honour's knee jerk reaction to defend her country? I think "nationalist" is distracting. I'd even go with "jingoist" first, and that's not a nice thing to say.

Patriot or jingoistic. Nationalist has more geopolitical overtones. In my head, anyway.

Punishingly Intricate

Yeah, that sucks, Dana. Hope there are brighter days ahead. (No idea what your husband does for a living but my DC area-ish company is hiring!)

My day was total stressball. We have way too much to do. And all I want to do is lie on a beach and read a book. No chance to do that at all for the rest of the year, I don't think. wah wah wah
