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

Laszlo and Nadja are like the polar opposite of that whole idea, though, right?

I mean, it's really meant to be, like, a draw for the putative teenage girl audience to have power over the good looking and dangerous supernatural being, but it's just such a widespread pattern that is disturbing on its own merits. Any particular couple, fine, they can have their reasons, but there are SO MANY

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Laszlo and Nadja are #goals.

If only I had the ability to shout "BAT" and disappear from situations I don't want to be in.

I can only imagine how wearying recapping TVD must have gotten, Cindy. Being burnt out on vampires as a result totally makes sense

Though really, I'd think that WWDitS would be sort of a vampire palate cleanser, it's in so many ways the polar opposite of those teenager+vampire stories.

Well, shoot, it turns out that my in-laws did get vaccinated, but are against getting a booster.

On the brighter side, the pie my employer sent me is supposed to arrive today.

If only I had the ability to shout "BAT" and disappear from situations I don't want to be in.

That would be one of the better superpowers. I mean, super-strength and super-speed and all sound great, but then people would always be expecting you to do things. With the bat-and-go power it would be...

Dana, thank goodness you are here, we have a situa--
