Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Aw, I had a pet rabbit who was a sweetheart. And my sister has one now who plays with the dog, it's quite amusing. Rabbits vary.

Oh, sweet holy fuck. -t, your name isn't pronounced "negativity" is it? I mean, it's fine if it is, just I would kick myself, am kicking myself, for not having worked out it can be read that way until one minute ago.
Which is not what I came here to post--I came here to mention that Charlie Jane at IO9 had a story optioned by NBC for a series, and it sounds very exciting all round [link]
