Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Facebook was overkill but it did remind me that so many people wore pink gingham for a while. It was knowing no matter what scrolled by, you shared the loss.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That was what Facebook Memories gave me, the pink gingham, and I'm ok with that.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Excellent article, flea. My PCP is now working part-time in research. I can't say I begrudge her the chance to eat lunch, but I do have to plan ahead and schedule my checkups at least two months ahead.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That article made me sad and angry all over again.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I keep finding books on Goodreads that Ginger marked "To Read". Makes me so sad.
