And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sumi, wow!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's wild, sumi!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That's pretty crazy, sumi.

The end may be in sight for the taxes. I considered alcohol, but with still being sick, it's probably not a great idea. Tomorrow. Tomorrow there will be alcohol.

I really appreciate that this is the kind of place where I can say "I really fucked up at being an adult today," and get sympathy instead of judgment.

Sumi, I saw a Tumblr post from someone who had a similar "lost iPhone in giant snowbank" experience this winter, and it's kinda awesome to have you confirm it with your experience.

I just used "Don't start none, won't be none." in a work email.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I don't get how people could judge you, unless you have a lot of godlike acquaintances elsewhere, who are busy with never fucking up. (Who are these people? Are they pretty, too? Damn them.)

I judge myself much more harshly than I judge other people, but it kinda defeats the purpose when I punch myself in the face for not being kinder to myself.

Maybe I really should get some gold star stickers? I shall pat myself on the back for doing 20 minutes of meditation this morning.

I have to take my laptop home due to the work fairy taking an urgent poop. I'm going to make butter chicken curry and then watch Cosmos while I keep an eye on my inbox.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

FB I CAN'T EVEN TODAY: my great-aunt is posting Ayn Rand quotes, and, on the other end of the spectrum, an acquaintance is hand-wringing about how to plant beans this year, because she has always made bean vine teepees and can't this year because cultural misappropriation WOE.

For one: trellis. For another: WTF, SJ WARRIOR CRAXYCAKES?!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

sumi, unbelievable. That's an iPhone commercial, right there.

Dana, I judge those people for being so judgmental!

I just discovered a solid mass below my ribcage. It seems to be a "muscle". Anyone have any experience with this condition?

I have seen these 'muscle' things before. If you sit quietly and don't excite yourself, it will go away.

Zen, "muscles" are an urban legend. It's obviously an alien implant, and you should nuke it from orbit. (It's the only way to be sure.)
