Much ~ma to you and your family, Burrell.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fuck. My boss (one of them. My boss' boss) wants to talk to me. I don't know what about and I am freaking out!

Burrell, so sorry about your sister. Hoping it's transient chemo-induced and means the chemo is working.
I'm on an educational webinar, and the guy just said to close everything else on your computer to participate. Yeah, no -- wouldn't you die of boredom without other things to do during a webinar??
This is what smartphones are for?
"Weaving skill ropes" is what I'm learning on this webinar.
...WTF???
The last time I left a Snopes link, without comment, on someone's Facebook page, about 10 people Liked my link without comment. I felt like we were all rolling our eyes together.
Ugh, yes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Always give in to the Snopes urges.
I have to say, I thought admitting to my biker cubemate that I have real biker boots and a real biker jacket would make him eyeroll, thinking I'm fashion OTT, but he offered to take me for a ride. I'm still pretty freaked out by bikes, but I don't let that get in the way of me accepting bike rides, on principle.
And he asked if I knew where to get road-ready Stormtrooper biker outfits, and I just might be able to hook him up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was sad the last time I saw something crazy on FB, there was no Snopes rebuttal!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Best thoughts to you and your sister, Burrell.
And good thoughts to you and Grace, Kat.
Loving the Snopes link. Lots of life should come with Snopes links.
Feel better, Dana.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I've been told (not by anybody to whom I'm actually connected on FB, thank God, just by random complete strangers on faraway websites) that Snopes is a well-known liberal website exactly on a credibility par with HuffPo.
Sending all possible prayers and good thoughts to Burrell's sister. There were two women in church yesterday talking during the open prayer time about their own sisters and their illnesses and their fierce love, and they made me think of you and your sister and just ache for both of you.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm just about to tell everyone on Facebook who wants to get into it with me over the ACA that my mom is fighting inoperable, terminal colon cancer and if they fuck with me, I will verbally eviscerate them and feed them their entrails.
