They don't go around killing beasties much bigger than they can fit in their mouth anyway.

I am so glad I'm a human.

I seriously thought the tanuki was a creature from Japanese mythology, not a real world animal.

Me too! Isn't there one in Discount Armageddon/Midnight Blue-Light Special? The bartender? (Paging P-C!)

3 tomatoes and 8 oz of cheese. possibly not my healthiest lunch, but so yum. not to see if it holds me through.

Veggies, good for you, with the vitamin C and whatnot. Calcium, good for your bones and teeth and whatnot. Sounds like a good lunch to me! (My dinner Saturday night was 2 margaritas, so maybe don't take nutrition advice from me.)

Sorry, yes, it is a fruit, despite the crowd it hangs around with.

(I have a co-worker who delights in correcting me every time I call a tomato a vegetable. And yet I persist.)

t edit I gotta ask: is that a thing?* Do alla y'all refer to a tomato as a fruit, or a vegetable?

*(And by "thing," I understand the anatomy of a tomato and why that puts it in the fruit category. By "is that a thing?", I don't mean "Is the tomato really a fruit?" I mean "Do a lot of people really refer to it as a fruit?")

So I finally applied for unemployment. Which is really fucking difficult! (Yes, I'm lucky never to have to do it before.) Even with all my paystubs and copies of last year's taxes, I still had to do a lot of quick math, and I'm sure I got some of it wrong.

I don't know how people unfamiliar with big bureaucracies manage to get through the process--it's really intimidating.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is it possible for me to make a joke about tomatoes being trans*? Scientists might say they are a fruit, but they definitely live life as a vegetable.

Yup. And people with poor educations and mental health problems and etc.! It's a miracle anyone ever gets anything.

Right? Solidarity!

(Okay, I shouldn't assume you are pro-tomato-as-veggie. But I will.)

"Do a lot of people really refer to it as a fruit?"

Only people trying to be annoyingly pedantic, IME. I mean, yes it is technically a fruit, but functionally, it is a de facto vegetable.

(Here is a special exception where any level of pedantry is okay by me.)
