Fred: Oh my God! Angel, you're…cute! Angel: Fred, don't! Fred: Oh, but the little hands! And the hair! Angel: Hey! You're fired.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired

Oh Tom! I wish there was a way to teleport you to Florida to be with us at Christmas.

Tom, know that Florida is always an option. Also DH and I were considering taking off on Christmas day ourselves because there are super cheap flights to New Orleans that day.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I wish I were going to be in New Orleans for Christmas, because I'd invite any of you who end up there. But even if you stay in NY, Tom, there are plenty of us who will be thinking of you, for what that's worth.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Tom, taking care of yourself is what's most important. I wish family didn't have the power to make us feel so guilty.

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

I'm so sorry, Tom, that sounds hard. Good for you for choosing the less bad option despite the downsides. I hope you can find more fun for yourself than you expect!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Tom, I'm so sorry.

I have cold number 1,000,002 since September. There is too much to do before Christmas, and I barely have any energy to get stuff done when I'm not sick. Send energy~ma.

All the energy~ma, my dear, and I should have a lot to spare as I have spent the day hiding from the world and reading. So pleasant.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Ohio dwellers: I will be making a donation to an activist organization in Ohio on behalf of my parents as a Christmas gift. What would be best? Local chapters of NARAL? PP? ACLU? Supporting a Dem candidate running in 2018? I want to put my money where it needs to be the most.

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

Tom, I'm sorry, that sounds really hard. I hope Christmas finds you in pleasant company, however that manages to happen.

-t, I'm glad the self-care is working!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Nora, I gave it some thought, and I think Planned Parenthood is the best option, honestly.
