Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

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

Timelies all!

Welcome Willow!

Today's adventure involved going to the kosher supermarket to get Passover things. Which was crowded and chaotic, but I survived.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

{{{{sj}}}} There are never the right words.

Since I already took the time off, I'm home today through Wed. It's Mr. S's spring break, so I've been dealing with him a lot.(Gary is out of isolation, but hasn't retested yet.) I'm exhausted.

Punishingly Intricate

There's no real point in retesting so soon because you can get positive results long after you're no longer contagious. Protocol now is isolate for 5 days and mask religiously for 5 more.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Welcome, Willow!

{{{{sj}}} I'm so sorry, hon.

Yea or nay?

I don't actually hate it? I certainly like it better than Comic Sans. If CH is as dyslexic-friendly as CS, I'd consider getting it.

It has not been an easy day for us today - we had to put our beloved sweetheart of an elder queen kitty Stella to sleep. She was clearly in pain and couldn't find relief, so it was the right thing to do, but still hard. She will be missed.

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

Oh, I'm sorry, juliana

I'm so sorry, juliana.
