Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That's lovely, Andi. Thanks for sharing it.

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

Timelies all!

Congrats, Callaluna.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Thanks, Andi, that's good to hear.

I am so tired of life being so uncertain. I interviewed for that job September 12 and still have not heard. And now we have to worry about mr. flea losing his job due to the EPA being abolished.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

On the other hand when people are scared for their lives, also not the time to post how your candidate (who lost) had rainbows coming out of her ass, and the fault lies with everyone except her and her campaign. And yeah she won the popular vote, but that she was competing in an electoral college that gave the victory to Bush when Gore won the popular votes was not a giant secret. In short when the reaction to a Trump victoryis a five minute hate of Sanders supporters (who mostly votred for ?Clinton) then yeah, people are going to start telling you what your candidate did wrong.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Typo, please do not characterize what happened in that thread as a "hate of Sanders supporters," nor try to explain away the rampant misogyny exhibited throughout this election cycle. Sanders would have been destroyed as well.

I've noticed no one in here stating that HRC ran the perfect campaign. It's obvious that she didn't.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm actually relieved that I'm not the only person noping out of Pantsuit Nation. I started off getting irritated after the election when it seemed like most posts were all "love and light are our greatest political weapon" and then the whole safety pin clusterfuck...I'm out.

Smonster, I'm so sorry everything is awful right now. Love you, lady.

My fam was going to get Tgiving dinner from a store, but we're just going to go to a nice buffet instead. It's just D, me, Mom and sister; the home does a different day of Tgiving dinner for residents and family, and bringing Daddy home for a couple of hours just seems cruel. He's doing really well at the #1 pick home we finally got him into, so we don't want to upset a good thing.

I might break down and buy a WaPo subscription. God knows I ran out of free articles to read during the election, and currently, they're not weaseling around when reporting on Bannon et. al. I'm seriously pissed that MSM media is soft pedaling the pure fuckery of Trump's transition.

I'm another who just can't seem to back away from social media. I'm trying to pick my battles, but there's just an avalanche of things I'm legitimately, righteously pissed about. But I'm also getting a lot of actionable information doled out in handy bits, and it's making it easier to take action WRT thoughtful serious political activism, so...

Yep. That's why I'm not backing completely away from social media. There's helpful information to be signal-boosted.

IO (kinda-sorta-related) news: my bottle of Nasty Woman from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab arrived today, ant it is a great scent.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Callaluna, I'm wishing you allthe best with your new start in life.
