Twitter's existance is justified.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Aw, great to see it happen. I think the support Collins is going to receive will outweigh the negative opinions by far.

IIRC, guns are two times more likely to be used for suicide than for self-defense/crime, at least as far as what little research has been done has uncovered. It's probably understated what with the "died at home" and other circumlocutions that death notices and families employ in public.
What never gets spoken about in the gun debate that I can see is that guns, the idea of guns, promotes a false sense of safety. (The Texas prosecutor and his wife who were shot by an assailant in their own home had 5 or 6 DOZEN guns at hand, and were well-versed in their use.)

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

I don't believe that about fans, but I do think so about the athletes that will speak out. I wouldn't have said so when watching...uh, that show that had this storyline last season t /not spoiling but on pondering it since, I think it behooves the vocal to be supportive, or it behooves the co-workers to be vocal and supportive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, so what should I get at the Vitamin Shoppe to make sure I get a good night's sleep? I have tried valerian and melatonin, to little or no effect. Anything else I can try?

Jesse, do you take a calcium/magnesium supplement? I take one at bedtime, and it really zonks me out.

Auggghhh! The cat peed on my bed! Damn cat. That's 3 more loads of laundry for my to-do list.
I hate fucking laundry.

I don't, but am willing to try!
Chamomille?
I may have some of that in the house already!
I just really need to sleep well tonight.

Ugh, Burrell! I don't know why my cat who would pee on anything I left on the floor never peed on the bed until he got sick, but I am grateful for that fact! (It's way easier to keep shoes on top of something than to do the fucking laundry.)
