Somebody just wrote to let me know why the urine-powered generator wouldn't work. So that's nice.
Too much Dune.

move out and draw fire
I mean, sure, if it were the solution to everything, I bet someone would have come up with it already, but I support creative high school scientists!
And girls. And MAKE liked it.

I am *so* proud of Good Stuff. The Buffista Tumblr that could. It's on the links page, right? Right?
I keep sending co-workers links from Good Stuff. It makes them happy.
The "shit my fandom friends say" tumblr only has 6 followers. But since it's pretty much an in-joke thing, that's fine. For the GCS tumblr, I think I want to do a giveaway when I reach 10k followers. (The idea of which FREAKS ME OUT, but I know it's coming.)

I'm pretty skeptical about the urine-powered generator myself.
I'm guessing this is more sophisticated than peeing on a tiny waterwheel. That would work, but it wouldn't produce much energy.
Pundit Shaming
I'm a fairly terrible political pundit, but even I never felt very nervous about Romney actually winning. It sounds like there must have been some sort of common belief on the right that 2008 was a complete aberration.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It sounds like there must have been some sort of common belief on the right that 2008 was a complete aberration.
Yeah. A chance to make history by electing a black president = high turnout of minorities and the young.
They assumed turnout of minorities and the young would go back down after 2008.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
not to mention all of the racism that gets under people's skin and makes them more resistant to overt voter suppression techniques.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I was supposed to take Bubba to the vet for shots at 12:30, and then at 11:55 the cleaning woman (who normally comes around 2:00) rang the door bell.
Bubba doesn't like the door bell, or the cleaning lady, so now I have a new hole in the sofa innards, and a 8:00 appointment on Saturday.
