I hope that means I can still say jerry-built and jerry-rigged, which are useful terms in my vocabulary. It had never occurred to me before now that it might be a slur against Germans.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Well, I'm half-German and I don't give a fuck. Or maybe that's the Finn in me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The Rogers Park one is mostly true. Although I will say that in the three years I've lived here, I don't think there have been any murders within a two-block radius of my place (not counting Howard St.). I definitely could not say that about my three years in Minneapolis.

Our wings are not tired.
Laura, did you hear about the Florida polling place that lost/miscounted 1000 votes? link
That is the community center where both my sons registered to vote, just a few blocks away from the HS where my husband coaches basketball. I was very upset when I read the report. (massive understatement)
The day in question was the day that Al Sharpton was there for a Souls to the Polls drive. I am fairly confident that it was just human error, and I am sure that it is being looked at closely. Still, on top of a very long string of attempts to suppress the vote in Florida, and it hitting so close to home, I was freaked out. I even emailed Rev. Sharpton since I knew he was there that day.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Interstellar porn? Very Marion Zimmer Bradley. Okay, fine. Varley. Heinlein? Anyway-- always a good angle.
Watching Graham Norton, and Daniel Craig is clearly a pants-dropping sort of charming, as is Javier Bardem (the Jeffrey Dean Morgan thing is still freaky), and Judi Dench's cell ringtone is the Bond theme music. She is so fucking cool.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
