See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My one right wing friend is parsing Trumps actual statements word for word to prove he didn't actually say he didn't believe our intelligence- that he is trying to put Putin in a position to manipulate him?

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

Wow.

It is really hard for me to understand that there are human beings living in the same world I do that sincerely believe these things. It's like Flat Earth.

It's real, Sophia, though I cannot attest to its fabulousness.

I just wish there was one, like, in the breakroom.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Basically, I followed some Fox News stuff and a some people who commented on that stuff in a right-wing way and added some more people Twitter suggested.

Huh. That's a really good idea.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's like Flat Earth.

This is really such a mystery to me! Do those people seriously seriously believe the earth is flat????? Have they never been on a plane??

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Fuck toxic masculinity.

Agreed.

Just read a Kirkus review of a new novel/thriller that tackles this: [link] Our Kind of Cruelty, by Araminta Hall.

Whoa. "This is simply one of the nastiest and most disturbing thrillers I've read in years. I loved it, right down to the utterly chilling final line." ―Gillian Flynn

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Today is annoying. Boss was given control of some operations over 3 hours away and has not sent out an email but REALLY wants to tell everyone. He is a nice enough guy and boss, but my god his insecurities are profound and deep. He blew into the office this morning immediately was barking out orders to people (not me) about stuff that is unimportant, then was on phone with customers walking around the office on the calls. Challenging customers on things rather than just addressing the issues, he mentions the new place he'll be over seeing many many times, so clear that he wants to really about it, bringing it into all conversations. Operations always get screwy the more people that talk to customers about ordered. Phone calls have no documentation and so things get dropped and not passed on to the right people.

And now my online registration for mac's School is not working.

I might just close my door for the rest of the day.

Because books.

Right? It's not available at my library yet, though. Woe.
