"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm so sorry about mac, msbelle.

It looks like four more years of Netanyahu. They should be finishing counting the absentee ballots in a few hours (in about four hours), and then we'll know for sure what the results are. I've updated my current hopes to 1. the other Arab minority party reaching the threshold, and 2. for a good minister of health and a good minister of environmental issues. The rest will remain the about the same.

For those who are looking for some kind of hope/silver lining: the trial on the criminal charges against Netanyahu should begin in July, if he will not be able to postpone/erase it.

Punishingly Intricate

Sorry about the layoff, Dana (incoming to yr fb box). And that mac is being a jerk hole, msbelle. And about Netanyahu. Sending love all around.

I need some serious focus-ma for the next couple of hours so I can get this gd document done. My therapist thinks I should look into going on low dose ritalin but it's hard to think that any problems I have getting shit done aren't just due to my laziness and willingness to be distracted.

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

I'm sorry about the layoff, Dana. I hope you find something without 7 am meetings soon.

Much focus~ma, lisah.

I'm not going to read about the eye bees. Nope. Don't wanna; can't make me.

Sorry to hear about the layoff, Dana.

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

I hope Dana is sleeping in this morning.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, it is almost better to read about Netanyahu than eye bees.

Family did the escape room last night, and well we aren't as smart as we think we are, but also there was stuff we never in a million years would have figured out. Host let us go way over time feeding us hints to finally escape. All in all it was fun.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I prefer the spoiler font to Netanyahu.

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

Focus~ma, lisah. My argument with myself re:laziness has more or less resolved into - if it's a character defect it's one I can't overcome through just trying harder and Adderall sure seems to make a difference. FWTW.

My cats switched places and placidly are out of each other's bowls this morning. I'm so confused. This never happens.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I hope Dana is sleeping in this morning.

Ha ha. Woke up for an hour around 3:30 AM and then was up for good at 7:30.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I probably could have gone back to sleep at 7:30, except I started thinking about stuff I needed to do, like try to find a good writing sample from the stuff I've worked on, and figure out what to say in a "yep, got laid off" email to my team.
