Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I thought you wanted to move sooner than 3 months!

Nah, I thought I just needed to give the 3 months of notice, not the three months AND the cash.

The Slate redesign is bonkers.

Damn, I did not realize Cameron Douglas was in solitary for two years! WTFF, man. [link]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The Slate redesign is bonkers.

And they're still breaking articles across multiple pages!

Because books.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Rick speaks truth. I have had to decide if I should spend time writing grants or writing an article or something else.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This is interesting: the etymology of "call a spade a spade."

(Don't read the comments.)

(Is it still etymology if you're talking about the origin of a phrase rather than a word?)

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

I love this:

The early usages of the word "spade" did not refer to either race or skin color.

The racists aren't using it to refer to one or the other of those things. Pretty much both every single time.
