I am at my coworking space. I hate having 30-40 emails waiting for me in the morning. Darn you, east coast!
Also hate: the revised weather forecast that has my boat day being only 70. Not warm enough for swimming!!!
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And good point about the mothers/caregivers versus not. I'd be curious of the results. My patriarchy related cynical brain wonders if there hasn't been more research because men don't want to be -shown in a bad light.
My patriarchy-addled cynical brain figured they didn't bother to take into account whether the women were mothers/caregivers because ALL women are moms and babysitters and childcare-givers, and it didn't occur to them that there might be any difference between women who were used to children and women who weren't.

noooo, don't scold it! It'll go away and we'll be back to 90 deg days again!
It was so nice and cool this morning, at 67 deg F.

Zen, only for Seattle, sorry--our weather is so rarely like the rest of y'all. :)

But warm enough for boating, surely?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Good morning, Bitches. To combat the Mondayness of Monday, would like to gift you with this photo which I believe to be relevant to the interests of many of you. [link]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Goooooood morning.

Hi, juliana!

Of course warm enough for boating--but more fun if it's sunny and you're jumping in, than if the breeze off the water is making you shiver in your sweatshirt :)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OMG. I am in the middle of the most ridiculous Facebook drama ever.
So, there's this person that I know from various Facebook communities. She uses a wheelchair. She wrote an article about how she tried to go to a Clinton rally, and the ADA seating situation was a mess, and she couldn't get to see the speech, and she contacted Clinton's campaign later and was really disappointed with their response. (She wrote a similar article several months ago when she tried to go to a Bernie Sanders rally and had a similar experience.) The article got published (on a "disability advocacy" website that I really hate), and she tagged me in a "Hey, everyone, look, they published my article!" post. About thirty people were tagged there.
Someone who's a "super volunteer" with Clinton's campaign (I don't know what that means) saw the post and is claiming that my friend is lying about the whole thing. (I don't know, I don't care, I am staying out of this.) And so the super-volunteer posted her own Facebook post about that, and included the names of about five people who'd been tagged in the original post, including me. I don't think I even commented on the original post! I'm staying out of this! Why is my name there? And spelled wrong, too. I contacted super-volunteer person and asked her to remove my name. I'll see what happens.
