...apparently it has something to do with...fuel and air and ratios and shit? I dunno. It was one of the possibilities when you google "why is my check engine light on", and re-doing the gas cap didn't fix it, so...

I retweeted a few #yesallwomen tweets but other than that did not contribute cause thought not making it all about the menz was one of the points. I was fortunate in not seeing asshat replies. I guess the people I follow on twitter are not asshats or have the sense to not publicly be asshats.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If someone asks "Is this Kate swinging?" is the right answer "This is she."? Do the swings change anything? If I point to a picture in a book and say "Is this Kate?" the right answer is, pointing "This is she."?

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

I would say, "That is her."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Speaking of weekend stuff! I've got plans to see Maleficent tomorrow afternoon. Tonight someone has floated the option of going to a bar to watch the Blackhawks game, but I think I shouldn't attempt watching in public because dignity.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Sent a frustrated email to boss telling him that the "help" he's getting me isn't helping at all. We'll see if he hears me. Part of our correspondence prior to my laying it out was "I assume after Tuesday that you won't need any more help" which was amounting to two extra guys for two hours. I told him not to assume anything and that I didn't appreciate being an afterthought in our contractors schedule (which is what we get when we aren't paying them anything!).

I'm trying to set up a scenario with two girls--even if someone asks "Is this Kate"? you'd point and say "That is her?"

Anyway, most of this is leading to "Hello, is ita there?" "Yes, this is she." and it being "proper." I don't get the difference.
