It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Do NOT taste it. I promise you it'll be gross and bland and awful. Baby food often is.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Good luck with your brother, Steph. I'd have advised getting hammered *after* dropping him off at rehab, but whatever works best for you.

This weekend was largely a loss to deadlines for me, though I did go have lunch at my parents' place for a bit of a break. I think the cats are just going to have to deal with their litterboxes until tomorrow, grocery shopping used up the last of my energy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Good luck, Steph.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Much ~ma, Steph, I hope the rest of the trip goes well and I hope you find a little time for yourself. You are doing good work, sister.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Man, yeah, I feel you, Matt. I have basically no awareness that there was a weekend. I mean, I realize most of this is self-imposed, but man, I have just been moving from one panic monster to the next. However, I have been getting SHIT done. I wonder if I could be like this, you know, all the time?

Tep, I hope your visit is going well. It sounds like your brother is stabilizing just because someone is there. Ma to you all.

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

My cat somehow saved a picture of Ben Carson to my desktop with her butt. !?!

That strikes me as somehow right and appropriate. Cat butts for Carson.

Liese, I get how getting shit done all the time would sound like a good idea, but one panic after another does not sound like a long-term solution.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cat butts love Ben Carson, it's true.

In other TV news, Downton! My only comment about Tom Branson is: "I am not having sex with Spike, but I'm starting to think that you might be."

Because books.

Downton question, Jesse: Does everyone know Barrow is gay by now? Including upstairs?

I would think so, in an unstated way? But who knows.
