Hec, don't sell yourself short.
You also bring pencils.
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

Don't bite the hand the hot cocoas you, Matilda!
Atropa and Jesse are wise. I would like to contract y'all to write all my performance evaluations for the foreseeable future

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
She shooed me off when I came back from my run bringing her a hot chocolate and mechanical pencils. Clearly I am not to be on camera. Only a hand that brings cocoa.
Of course not! What could be worse? I mean, your showing up at the school building and having her paged to the office to pick up her lunch would be worse, I guess. DaaaAAAAAaaad!!!!!

No, that's exactly what she should do.

What is even happening?
Steve Bannon arrested for defrauding donors.
Arrested for defrauding donors by promising them the money would go to building a wall on the Mexican border.
Steve Bannon was arrested for defrauding donors by promising them the money would go to building a wall on the Mexican border. Steve Bannon and crew were arrested by agents of the US Postal Inspection service, i.e. the criminal investigating arm of the United States Postal Service.
He's being charged in a Federal court, the SDNY. Which means that Trump can and will pardon him, eventually.
The acting US Attorney for SDNY is Audrey Strauss. Strauss was deputy to the former US Attorney for SDNY, Geoffrey Berman. You may recall that two months ago, Bill Barr tried to force out Berman, by lying that Berman had resigned when he had not, so that they could replace Berman with Trump loyalist, Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Jay Clayton.
Berman refused to resign until the Senate approved Clayton, which is why Barr had to accept Strauss as Berman's replacement.
It seems like the writers have gotten a second wind in the run up to the season 4 (and please let it be a series) finale.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Apparently whatever work that needed to be done in front of our parking spots was done, because the signs are gone.(The work was actually done in front of the house a few doors down, but they needed people out of their parking spots so they could park their truck lengthwise.)

Aw, my co-workers parents lost their house. They (the parents) were out of the country, though, and the person staying there got out safely. I imagine I'll be hearing more stories like that over the next few days. Been a really weird day at work. Tomorrow probably will be also.
But! I managed to get my life insurance AND my car insurance paid. I am super duper responsible!
