I am so sorry Dana. At least you saw Daveed Diggs!
My library e-book collection is STILL recommending me children's books, like Curious George.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I know that feel, Dana. My back-up person did nothing while I was "on vacation", as far as I could tell.
What I read was that they had color-coded the elevators red, white, and blue, and no one thought about it until they got embarrassed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Our wings are not tired.
and no one thought about it until they got embarrassed.
Pretty much the same thing happened when they chose their candidate.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Laura FTW.
It's one thing to paint the elevator doors in a color code or have different color signs that simply say "elevator" but what they did shows that there are no critical thinkers in the room at all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seriously, not one person who saw the mockup for the sign had even a second thought? Oy.
Just had the phone screen for a job at a Company (something I have not had since college!), and don't think it went great, and she is definitely looking for people with experience I don't have, but maybe? Eh, we'll see.

Yeah, I get that. Plus Trump is a racist jackwagon. That makes "white elevators" sound like something the GOP cooked up for the convention. But I think it's just unfortunate coincidence.
Combined with the general ineptness and tone-deafness of the campaign. (See also, You Can't Always Get What You Want on the loudspeakers as Trump announced Pence.)

I keep reading about what a shitshow the 60 Minutes interview was, but I haven't been able to make myself watch any of it yet.

Seriously? That's hilarious.

I've reached the point where I can barely stand to hear Trump's voice. It's impossible to avoid, but I kind of cringe when I hear it.
edited to add: I wonder if they got permission from - or paid royalties to - the Stones to use that music. The Republicans have a history of kind of appropriating music without doing either.
