Anyone else listen to the Slate Culture Gabfest? I had no idea what June Thomas looks like until now, when I saw her little pic at the bottom of her article about hating Thatcher. [link] She is not at all what I pictured in my head, but the more I look at her, the more of course that's what she looks like!
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My sister says the Foxx level is fine, but SLJ?? Based on what?
I actually don't know why I think Jamie Foxx is a pussy hound.
I mean, I guess men kissing on the mouth must be gay??????

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I confess to having tuna salad for lunch but, once again, cold, no microwaves were harmed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I had fish for lunch, but it was sushi so not all that aromatic.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
She is not at all what I pictured in my head, but the more I look at her, the more of course that's what she looks like!
Wow, yeah. In my head she had long hair, I'm not really sure why. But I can totally picture her voice coming out of that picture.

Now tagless for your comfort.
John Fugelsang's Facebook page had the best quote: "People shouldn't say horrible things about Margaret Thatcher, says people who said horrible things about Hugo Chavez."

This is what I'm saying! Thank you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There is one person on my FB feed who very primly moralized when Osama bin Laden was killed that it was wrong to be happy about the death of ANY human being, no matter who that person was; today, that person posted "Burn in hell, Thatcher." (Perhaps they don't think that qualifies as "happy." Still, the hypocrisy made me laugh. I sort of feel like linking them back to their own post. But I won't.)

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Jesse, wasn't that cool? Even though I feel a little insulted that women my age sort of get reduced to people going "Mom, you didn't tell me this shit would be HARD!" There are people somewhere who are torn up about the Thatcher thing, probably. Can't say I'm one, because she's a good example that just adding women to government doesn't automatically make it better for women.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My sister was gutted at Chavez's death, and had me TWEET THANKS TO FRANKIE BOYLE in order to celebrate Thatcher's. So, she's perfectly consistent.
