I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

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

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I started feeling shaky(literally) after finishing my session on the treadmill. Dunno why. I ate some almonds, maybe that will help.

Our wings are not tired.
Whom do you think will be elected POTUS first, an Atheist or a gay person?
I've wondered that myself. But separately, to get to Hil's initial post, I have finally learned the importance of listening to someone's concerns (and validate them) without trying to add my own concern in. It's one of the the things I've learned from people I follow on Twitter.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Whom do you think will be elected POTUS first, an Atheist or a gay person?
Gay. I have no evidence, but given how strongly faith pervades Presidential campaigns, I doubt an avowed Atheist would get much traction.

That's what I've always thought, Juliana.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Mobius bagel::
Wow. I once gave a presentation in a mathematics class on topology, which include a largely failed attempt to fold a doughnut. This would have come in handy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I agree with that, but it'll be a long time for either, I'm sure. (Of course, who knows what "a long time" is! I would not have thought we'd have a black president yet, either...)

Jesse, right? Also I totally thought the first Black president would be a Republican (Powell or Rice) because enough Dems would cross over to make history. I was wrong wrong wrong.

hip deep in pie
American politics is weird. I rarely know the religions of most of the PMs. Except the current one, who belongs to a freakass church. Okay, and if they're French, I assume they're RC.
My poor dad was in so much pain that they took him back to the hospital today. They X-rayed his hip and there's nothing broken, but they can't see any other reason why he's in the pain that he's in. They're admitting him overnight, and he'll see an orthapedic specialist in the AM.
ION, I just remembered I have a potluck in French class tomorrow. Good thing I always have ingredient for cookies on hand.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Openly gay, clearly.
Thanks for that link, Ginger. I'm beginning to feel like I've used up the internet--I'm searching for great examples of his high contrast work, and that piece is too muddy. :(.
Most frustrating, there was a picture I fell in love with for inspiration, and I can't find it any more. Had the best moon light source...
