You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think this is probably the most enjoyable format in which to consume the Twilight series.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh yeah -- I've been meaning to ask someone to tell me the "shocking twist ending!!!" of the movie vs. the book.

I was wondering that, too. Do Edward and Jacob get it on? PLEASE TELL ME THEY DO.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I haven't read any of the Twilight books nor seen the movies. But just reading the movie review of the last one it seems like the wussiest narrative cop-out I've ever seen. So lame.

Which part? I read the books, and I can think of a few things that might qualify as "wussiest narrative cop-out."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, OK, whatever.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Unlike Jessica, I don't have enough to do. I came up to SF for work today so that I could go eat oysters and then get up to no good with Juliana and maybe -t when they let us out at 3:00, so I can't do the onerous tasks I usually catch up on on slow days.

WHY IS IT NOT 3 YET?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday, Sparky!

I am feeding my daughter a pumpkin bagel with nutella on it. That's taking "have a muffin, whitey!" to a whole new level.

But it sounds so GOOD!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, I think that movie spoiler is perfect! I always mean to seek out the good bits versions of films I don't need the whole of, and that sounds great. I do especially like the signature move from the trailer.

I haven't seen the horse-tossing from the Lincoln slayer movie either.

No chance of going home early today, I don't think. Everything's upside down, projects are fucked up, messages are mixed, all sorts of fun and games.
