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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I love John Oliver, but he gives me something new to worry about every week.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We should have listened to Flavor Flav years ago - 911 is a joke!

Edit: ....which I typed mid-watching, before Oliver made that very point.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Flavor Flav is a wise man.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Words you never expected to hear, yet strangely true in this case. A stopped giant series of clock necklaces is right twice a day.

Possibly only funny to me and Teppy: having listened to the Anna Faris podcast with them, if Jenny Slate and Chris Evans are actually dating and trying to be quiet about it, then that podcast was the dating version of Jean-Ralphio and Mona-Lisa's Don't be Suspicious song.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

that podcast was the dating version of Jean-Ralphio and Mona-Lisa's Don't be Suspicious song.

That is HILARIOUS.

That is HILARIOUS.

RIGHT? I mean, it's totally possible that they're just friends and the media is once again acting like two people can't hang out and be affectionate just for the sake of liking each other (which they seem to, and also, I'm pretty sure they were both somewhat stoned), but if that's not the case, then damn.

Especially with the subjects of two of the advice calls.

Also, the podcast was hilarious. Though the second-to-last advice call was extremely listen from the hall.

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

Oh, whew, looks like my hour-and-a-half meeting is getting rescheduled. I feel like I have been underwater all morning with orders that need special handling, switching gears and being able to have a coherent discussion about process improvement would have been difficult today. Also, still tired from yesterday, just staying awake for the rest of the day will be enough of a challenge, frankly.

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

I have rec letters to write, Kat, and with a similar level of don't wannas. But the longer I delay, the more days of my summer get lost to Don't Wannas.
