This is what the NY Times alert I just got said:
The following is the full text of President Bill Obama’s prepared remarks for his speech on Thursday from the Democratic National Convention.
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?
'Safe'

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
The tylenol in my cupboard is a bigger threat to my health.
Well Tylenol is pretty evil occasionally. It's probably the scariest thing that is randomly in my medicine cabinet. Not least of all because it's OTC and most people don't know it can be dangerous. Actually, it's probably the scariest thing without any qualifiers at all.
Our drug laws are occasionally baffling.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You said that botox isn't worth it--that implies some sort of a trade, right? What are you giving up, in exchange for the effects of botox? I'm not getting sick, I'm not shortening my life, I'm not increasing my risk of dying or getting ill that day by any significant amount.
I'd consider crossing the street to be a bigger risk to my physical wellbeing than putting myself in the hands of a medical professional to administer the treatment. And I never think "is it worth crossing the street to get that bagel?" Well, not in an "I might die today" way. In a "fuck off I'm tired" way probably, yeah.

I pay them money each month, I should totally be getting that alert. No one told me there would be wistfully funny things with the NYT...

Hence my choice of tylenol for that sentence.

Steph, I left that hyphen in for you! You're welcome.
What, "relatively-minor"? Oh, I saw it, missy.

It was under my Nuclear Power Alert. I have no idea why the Nuclear Power Alert was less than alert.

My sister just tossed 2 AD quotes at me in response to the Poehler/Arnett split, and I only caught one. Sheeit. I might have to watch the whole damned thing again before I go home.
I haven't seen True Lime in any of my normal stores. I'll check out Bristol Farms and Gelson's, and if neither of them have it, I'll order online. I'm curious.
True Lemon and Sodastream are perfect for each other--cuts down on my Izze craving more than the diluted fizzy fruit juice, for some reason. And since that's going away...I have one can of the good juice left, and I don't feel tempted to mix it up. This and the rooibos mixes iced have me pretty clammishly happy for the moment.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thoughts from my day:
I already have too many shoes. Fluevog really needs to stop having sales.
The bag I got after you all helped me choose it arrived today. The color isn't quite what I wanted, (more oxblood than red) but it is a perfect size.
The host of the new Pyramid freaks me out a little. He looks plastic.
My "summer vacation" of not being frantically busy EVERY SINGLE SECOND at work and constantly being behind and having to work weekends has definitely ended.
I like wine, and Bevmo's 5 cent wine sale,
HI! I already miss you all.

OMG, I have BevMo now. I should totally go hit up a BevMo.
in response to the Poehler/Arnett split
That actually makes me sad. I wanted those crazy kids to make it. Clearly they were more together than I.
I am sorry we picked a not ideal bag, Lee.
