"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The person I unfriended today replied to me that as a mother of sons I needed to understand that girls lie about these things.

To be fair, this actually almost happened to my neighbor. (The crazy woman who woke me up threatening to get her gun also threatened to accuse him of rape, but fortunately admitted it was a falsehood in a format he could show to witnesses.) But I feel quite confident that instances where men actually do assault or rape women are orders of magnitude more common than false accusations, and THAT big glaring problem needs to get priority.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Please don't. Not today.

It's still a truth, no matter if it's told today or tomorrow. But yes, different levels of pain.

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

No, really, can we just not? I'm pretty sure we can.

I am asking you, as a favor, to let it rest, Connie.

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

I have MOVED FURNITURE and cleaned around and underneath. more sweeping, more laundry. I really think I want to get the old TV out of this room, but not sure I can do that alone. That would free up my mantle and I could make it all display-y and fun.

mac is still not home to clean his room and bathroom.

took some stuff to the garage. I've got a pile of coffee table books and no coffee table. If I moved my tv set-up around a bit, maybe they could go there.

Very clear to me that after I get through this current round of library books, I must start reading from my stash. I know I will not want to keep them all after reading, so that will free up shelf space, but not something I can do anything about now.

Right. Onward.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I NEED you to come out and help me figure out my furniture, msbelle. I currently have a wonderful bookcase in my hallway because I need to figure out how best to rearrange my living room to make space for it, and I just get to that, "We fear change," place and my brain freezes up.
