He is, but Ed Davis standing up next to him made him look like an action figure, not a full-sized human.
I was thinking maybe Ed Davis is a giant.

Crap. I'm really sorry these guys appear to be Chechen Muslims. Because really what we need are more reasons to encourage the Islamophobic jackasses. Damnit.
I was really hoping that they could be captured without any more deaths. Damn damn damn.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is the actual truth.

Oh, Facebook. I have a friend on FB who is INSISTING that the "controlled explosion" is that the police are going to blow up a house in Cambridge. A WHOLE HOUSE.
I tried to correct her. I really tried. I don't know whether to link news articles on her comment thread, or just go eat a damn cupcake.

I think I'm going to open a bottle of wine. Maybe I could nap?

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

But you know some people are relieved that Islamophobia ain't just racism any more.
Man, I can't type around the epithets I wanted refer to, and I feel like an idiot eliding. Ah, well. Use another sentence entirely.
I just, for sake of distraction (I'm waiting on a slide deck to validate, and I can't start without it) took the Harvard Project Implicit test on gay/straight bias, and am not surprised to come out "moderate automatic preference for Gay People compared to Straight People" since I winced before every "telling" keystroke. I don't know if that ends up measuring what they want it to measure. I don't feel like it was implicit at all.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I took care of an onerous task today! And it wasn't even Onerous Task Day or anything. Feeling kinda special right now.
