Yeah, nuns have always been great. My mother went to a Catholic women's college in the early 60s, and she always talks about how most of the students were conservative, but the nuns were radical as hell.
Or, not hell.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

I'm trying to finish my performance evaluation. What do I do well? I don't fucking know. Stuff?

Strategy? Act as a liaison? Execute on deliverables?

Act as a liaison it is! Which is true, and I can spin that.

Everyone does at least one of those in an office job, right?

I have hit submit so it's in the system. I'll proofread later.

The first half of my (and Hubby's) comic book collection has arrived, thanks to Faux Son. In total, nearly a dozen long boxes of mid-90s comics across most of the publishers that went through Hubby's comics shop. Lots of Bat Man and X-Men, Lady Death, oodles of Image and Dark Horse. There are a lot of books I want to keep, then I guess I'll drag what's left to the current incarnation of Hubby's store and see if there's any interest in the rest. Lots of damaged books to get rid of as well. I forgot I liked Spawn so much.

Yay, shrift!
So tonight I had a discussion with a friend who had never heard of Up With People. And while I knew of them (and even remember some of the theme song), apparently I actually knew nothing about them. Like, that they were a kind of reactionary group, possibly funded by the government?

My boss called me yesterday to do my performance review while I was in an Uber on the way to a client presentation. So that was fun. I had headphones so I didn't ask to reschedule.
It was fine, everything positive, but while our team exceeded our numbers the wider business group did not so no top ups on bonuses and stuff. Whatev. After my epic meltdown last year I've decided to not really give a shit.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There was a good metafilter thread about UWP a few years ago.
