Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Man, it would be cool if this civil union gets to remain in effect.
I have managed to get the subject matter expert consultants and my manager to agree that the plan is too risky--I need to see if the developer agrees too, and then that will make just 1 person who supports the project. The scope scares me right now, and makes me scared for my Christmas vacation and travel to Megna's wedding.

Internet down. Still have power. Shouldn't complain, but I still want to.

Benen's good. If you really want to know why Mitt's a bad choice, read Matt Taibbi. I don't really watch either convention...they're infomercials, even if you're a politics geek. Just doing like Ari Gold...cursing and reading coverage.

Yeah, the Democratic convention is going to have as much puffery, though less upsetting puffery for liberals.

we usually have better speakers, but if somebody says something heart-rendingly awesome, the internet will tell me. Don't get me wrong, if I could really be there, I'd probably be psyched by the spectacle, but otherwise? I don't like hype.

We're having a company-wide conference call with some guy going over the financials. I could not be able to follow less. EBITDA? FWIW, ICNCL.

People, I need some kind of forgiveness. A friend just posted a photo of her sons at the beach on Facebook, and I thought to myself, "Damn, son 2 is hot." The sons are about 18 and 15, and the one I ogled was the younger one. Whom I knew well when he was, like, 9.

The whole US political theme has moved me beyond outrage to a sincere desire for separatism. Unfortunately I and most people I care about are deep within the swirling mass of lying crazy. If it were geographically possible, I'd love to say to the Republicans, "You want to get on without any government? Awesome. You take those 25 states and enjoy your delightful tax-free existence. We'll take these, tax appropriately, and provide health care, education, and government services at levels similar to those of other industrialized nations. And in 30 years we can compare notes, if there's anyone left in your pseudo-feudal hell hole that can still read."
I'd miss my nephew.

I cannot believe this shirt. So wrong, on so many levels. I'm aghast, and HuffPo was pretty much endorsing the principle.
