When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm hoping there's a fire pit at the NYE party so I can burn my 2016 calendar while alternately sobbing and shrieking "Die in a fire, motherfucker!"

I'm trying to figure out what medium I can make a 2016 from so I can destroy it on NYE. I'd like to blow it up, but that might bring the cops. So I might just draw it and then burn it. (Tim suggested we add gunpowder, because of course he has random gunpowder.* But that might bring the cops, too.)

*(Sometimes I suspect he's a secret superhero, because I do go to bed before he does. He could be out fighting crime for all I know.)

The citizens of Cincinnati sleep easier knowing Pyro-Man is on the job.

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

I like to think his crime fighting identity is a mermaid.

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

And he does have a sidekick named Kato.

Because books.

Oh man, the idea of Tim out fighting crime is a really excellent one.

And Strix, you should totally wind up a superhero. Plus, what Plei said.

Thinking about you and yours, Consuela, and sending love and strength.

The urge to hide until this year passes is really strong right now.

That's partly who Kato is named after. But also the Pink Panther's Kato. Our dog is more Green Hornet!Kato than Pink Panther!Kato.

Always good to go with the less homicidal choice.

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

Timelies all!

I'm sorry, Consuela.

We got back last night, later than planned.(Flight took off an hour and a half late) Florida was nice, but not the most restful. (Yeah, I know, life with a toddler) I need a vacation from my vacation.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

It is comforting to think of Merman Tim out fighting crime, especially in this horrible year. Strix, you're a special kind of superhero, too--good for you.

Consuela, I'm so very sorry.

I'm...sort of braced, terribly afraid of losing anybody else before the damned ball drops. Wouldn't mind so much if it was Turnip and his crew, but no, we seem to be losing staunch representatives of diversity. And we can't afford to lose them, in either a personal or a cultural capacity.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I think it's a slow motion rapture. And God's taste therein is way closer to mine than I would have expected.
