Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like my story better! Now, I have to go read science. Damn you, Cupcake Cowgirl.
eta: Just look at that picture of Max Scherzer and tell me he didn't absorb his twin.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
IO9 or giz must have had an article on chimeras in the past day or two, because I just closed a bunch of related windows. Apparently it's much more common than we'd thought, or that we can determine, but the thought is that embryos and host mothers trade cells during a pregnancy. And keep 'em.
The conversation about a newly gay character in DC is going reasonably well at IO9, considering.
You know, considering humanity.

I mean, you don't have to, but if Emmett never becomes a brilliant biologist, you'll know why.

Yeah, that's not going to happen. More likely that he becomes a standup comic specializing in pseudeoscience. And even that's not particularly likely.
I'm kind of liking my Pseudeoscience Comic concept now, however.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I got to see JZ, Juliana AND Toddson today.
Go on, be jealous.

I would except I'm going to see Todd this week, and I'm drinking Juliana's gin.
I didn't get to see you, though.

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

It was a present! You get to keep presents. Even when they are weird cells.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Go on, be jealous.
I am, don't worry, I am.
It was a present! You get to keep presents.
So funny! Now I'm going to think of them as a hostess gift.
I made sushi tonight for dinner. So tasty! I wish it were slightly less work, except for that would make it less festive. And speaking of festive, at the farmer's market today we discovered franny-centric baked goods and so we had to try them. Outrageously delicious. I don't want to know how much butter is in the rosemary lemon cookies. nom!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Congrats on a successful event, Jesse!
Go on, be jealous.
I would, but I need a weekend to recover from my weekend with Vortex.
Just got a commercial for a new series on A&E with Katee Sackhoff. Looks like a Justified ripoff set in Wyoming.
Maybe it won't totally suck? Also, I went looking for info, and found out that Katee Sackhoff was at JazzFest!! You are all fired. Of course, trying to stalk someone at Jazz Fest would be like playing Where's Waldo at ground level but without all that helpful space in between people.
