Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I can't imagine attending a music festival again, but the When the When We Were Young festival is tempting me! I've spent some time earlier today laughing about some of the bands in the line up that I involuntarily saw multiple times as openers.
I successfully motivated myself into taking a walk today by using the new episode of Maintenance Phase as a reward, so I get to listen to it tonight after I'm done with work. I'm not sure what I'm going to use to motivate myself tomorrow, though.
and when Hot Topic still had the red logo
It's not red anymore? (You can see how often I go to a mall and/or shop at Hot Topic.)
Timelies all!
Mr. S just wouldn't go to sleep last night, and he's been behaving terribly today(slapping Gary, throwing things, etc.) I just can't with him when he's like this.
I almost ignored the calendar reminder, but now I have beets roasting in the oven so I can make Nadiya's beetroot and feta pasta for dinner: [link]
Oh, hey, Tim's brother just told us that their dad's TB test is negative, so that's one less thing to stress about. I know it's been really weighing on Tim to not visit his dad while the test results were up in the air.
Can't fix any of the other stuff, but no TB and Tim getting to visit his dad again is pretty good.
That's good news in an overall crappy circumstance. I'm glad Tim can see his dad now.
meara, that video clip is priceless!
I support the Aeryn jet pack plan.

That is good news under bad circumstances, Tep.

Her summary is kind of where my head is now:
CHANG: Well, I mean, a lot of Joss Whedon's work has these deeply devoted fandoms, right? Like, whole fan communities have sprung up around "Buffy" and "Firefly." How have his fans reacted to all these allegations?
SHAPIRO: I think that there's a real urge to try to write him out of the narrative specifically. Like, looking at "Buffy," you know, and I'm a fan of "Buffy," I mean, that - it was a very important show to me, and that's why I was interested in writing this piece to begin with. When he was sort of cast by us as this feminist hero, we were thinking that like, oh, he brought Buffy to life. He gave us Buffy, you know. And not necessarily thinking, well, he also showed us that the world is full of monsters. And most of those monsters are men. And most of those monsters want to destroy Buffy, kill her, try to rape her, endlessly brutalize her. I mean, that's in his brain, too, you know.
