News-canceling headphones would have to cancel the actual news.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Fully onboard with this.

Thrive to spite them
I'm at the point where I 'm hoping one of Putin's inner circle decides to kill him. I want to feel horrible about that but I don't. I know that won't happen. I mean there'd be a power vacuum and no way to know if anyone who took Putin's place would be any better but maybe they'd be less inclined for nuclear war.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
So tired. Still waking up before the alarm, most of the time for no reason. (Occasionally Mr. S wakes up early and starts making noise.)

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I woke up at 5:30, walked almost 6.5 miles today and had two drinks out (!) with friends (!!) after work (!!!), so I'd better sleep well tonight, is what I'm saying.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Um. I'm with Dana on the news-cancelling headphones.
Can we maybe make a news thread for hard news, and save Natter for news-light conversation? I come here for sanctuary, and right now, it's not that. I care about all of you and what's going on in your lives. But I can't keep up with you if news keeps intruding.
I do keep up with the news, I'm not completely avoidant. I'd just rather not deal with it *here*. Here is where I go to set that aside for a little while and relax a bit with my friends. It's okay if you don't agree. I just thought I'd bring it up.

Drinks after work, Jesse? Wowwwww, what's that like? I don't even remember....

It's been literally two years!

Our wings are not tired.
Going out for drinks with friends. Ahhh, I'll just sit with that notion for a bit. Well done.
