not your mom's socks.

Thank you so much for the ~ma. I’m cleared for a year and labeled “dense” but some of you knew that.

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

Yay, hippocampus!

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

Yay and ~ma in quantities. I am skimming here and not responding thoroughly because my brain is busy with being annoyed at the not very bright people I had to work with today and wants them to step barefoot on lego.

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

That's great, hippocampus!

Since I usually fly up north to spend Christmas with the family, I'm used to shipping stuff up ahead of time. In other years, I'd have a drink with my sister and then have a frenzied round of gift wrapping in her guest room on Christmas Eve before heading out to a party at the in-laws'. I'm going to miss the first and last parts of that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay hippo!

What is even happening?

Joe Biden won the Electoral College (officially).

Bill Barr resigned (but submitted such an obsequious resignation letter, I was embarrassed for him for a moment, until I remembered what a son of a bitching bootlicker he is) soon thereafter.

I'm trying to remember how I used to take deep breaths on the regular. It's been four years of shallow breathing. We're in the home stretch now.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

We're in the home stretch now.

I'm still worried about Trump supporters getting violent around and on Inauguration Day. I wish I weren't, but I don't think it's going to be an easy transition.

Me too, Teppy. I'm also worried Barr's replacement will be willing to do things even Barr wasn't willing to do. And I'm leery of (if not exactly worried about) Pence pulling some b.s. when Congress counts the votes on January 6th.
