I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Holy fuck. $480 phone bill. And only $60 of that is roaming from going to Toronto. I can expense a hundred of that but jeez.

I swear I thought I'd been hacked. But no, I just didn't consider that when I switched to working from home three days a week that I needed to reexamine some shit.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Also - today is the first day of Rolex!

I started to echo that ! and then realized that my Rolex is in January and has cars racing for 24 hours. It's that kind of reading comprehension failure day.

That seems odd. Nova seems to be a reliable, scientific-based exploration of the world, and the Kochs seem to be the opposite of reliable and science-based.

I have the biggest cognitive dissonance when I watch Nova programs and their names pop up. I mean, I think they are terrible and yet they help sponsor a show that I really like and has taught me a lot over the years. The twelve-year-old in me that hates their politics mutters, "you mean, cocks" when it comes on nearly every time.

Anyway, the same group is doing a rifle marksmanship event this Sunday in Phoenix, and it's free! Only it starts at 9, four and a half hours away from me. And I would have to call to register, like today probably.

Go to Phoenix. I miss it. I have no logic behind my vote. Just I miss it and have no reason to really vist there.

Yikes, brenda!

Always Anti-fascist!

You could visit me, Cass. I haven't entertained Buffistas in quite some time. IJS.

I need to come see you too, erikaj, when one of these trips isn't me fleeing the city!

That would be awesome!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Guess what? There's a new Buffy porn movie and it's pretty accurate to the Look and Feel of the show.

Okay, that trailer is pretty funny. And wrong. But also funny. And wrong.

It's the "Goodness, Yes!" part--shows they get it.

It's like Gosh Yes The Middleman. Go Jilli!!

I almost wish I had an Io9 account so I could comment on this post: [link]

I'm all bent out of shape that they didn't mention Ricky Manning, executive producer of Farscape and the guy who invented Scorpius, the best Big Bad ever.

... of course, it's possible someone in the comments did so, since I can't read the comments from work...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Congrats to Kate and family!
