I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

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

It's indented on three browsers on each of two machines for me whether I'm logged out or in. That makes no sense.

I'll switch it back, but I have no clear idea how in hell to troubleshoot what I can't see.

Seems to work on Safari. Then again, I haven't customized anything here.

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

Scariest thing I've read today:

Chinese corruption and looting on a vast scale: industry, government, and military - Boing Boing

...The current political leadership of China represents the greatest looting of a country by the political class ever seen in history. In the Hurun Report released in March 2012—the richest 70 members of the government have a net worth of $89.8 billion, an average of over $1B each. This compares to $7.5 billion for the 660 for the US government, an average of $11M each. China’s Billionaire People’s Congress Makes Capitol Hill Look Like Paupers.

...

China’s wealth distribution is becoming completely one sided The success of 300m Chinese who live in western level prosperity depends on the continued exploitation and good nature of one billion people who live on an average of $5000 per annum.

The way Chinese financial markets work is perhaps even worse. Basically, things are unsustainable--they're producing way more industrial output than they need for perverse financial reasons.

I'm seeing it now. I'm using Safari 5.0.6 on OSX 10.5.8.

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

And "I don't have a stick blender" is not an excuse, because stick blenders are incredibly useful and everyone should have them.

I used to have a stick blender, but I got rid of it because it was a pain to clean, and the blades weren't sharp enough to blend anything I wanted to blend.

There's nothing to see now. I rolled back the changes. But if anyone here's comfortable with the debugger on their browser, could they tell me what styles they see applied to % this?

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

It's indented on three browsers on each of two machines for me whether I'm logged out or in. That makes no sense.

Ah, technology.

You mean the page source?

It's enclosed in a blockquote tag. Which makes no sense, because it doesn't look like blockquote.
