Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I can't stand the insidious negation of those stories that immediately follows.

and also

And no one responded to any of my #YesAllWomen tweets with ugliness

Ditto, and I can only assume it's because I got in really early and then stopped participating when I got overwhelmed and spoonless about the whole thing.

FB, unfortunately is a minefield, and I don't have the energy to deal with it.

I don't have a lot of directly combative types on my FB list, and everything is either friends or friends of friends, so I don't get much drive-by bullshit. But there is SO MUCH that I just don't even bother say there because it's just fucking TIRING to deal with "if I say this not even vaguely controversial thing, will so-and-so post some passive-aggressive weird shit half an hour later..." I got out of high school 25 years ago, people.

Yeah. Thus my almost non-existent FB presence.

I will post my 5K run via Nike+ tomorrow, though, because whenever someone likes those posts my iPhone plays cheering crowd noises at me, and that is pretty great.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That's excellent. Are we friends on FB? I will be sure to like all of those posts!

I will be sure to like all of those posts!

Yeah, for sure!

And for the rest of the day, I'm going to concentrate on work, and taking breaks by looking at pictures of puppies. PUPPIES.

I will check! Maybe I will send out a flurry of friend requests this evening...

ETA: hooray puppies!

Punishingly Intricate

Puppies!

I'm pretty sure we're getting kittens tomorrow! 2 siblings boy and girl. We're still not sure what to call them. Or how the dog will react.

I will try to like, unlike, like your posts tomorrow, t, so you get extra cheering.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Kitties! Did you decide on names?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

KITTENS! Fun.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Did someone say KITTENS!??!!

Punishingly Intricate

Kittens!!!!

We haven't figured out names yet although I'm liking Little Joey Biden for the boy.
