Hec, make sure she’s having her iron levels checked regularly.
We've got a date with the phlebotomist to check for just that before the doctor puts her on the Pill.
I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning.

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'm sitting here reading the NYT live reporting page and I can't stop crying. It's just so horrific.
I just have no faith in this country anymore. No will to change. Nothing will be done about this. Sandy Hook didn't change anything. This won't change anything.

Good. I ended up going on the pill not much older than her to try to keep my iron levels from drastically dropping all the time.

Yeah, I lost all hope for change after Sandy Hook.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
This will less than not change anything--I'm already seeing concern trolls on Twitter wanting to know whether the murderer had entered the US legally and whether we're ready to talk about the REAL issue, which shouldn't be gun control but border control. Fucking nauseating.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I’ve been avoiding the news as much as I can but every time I did hear anything the # dead kept getting higher and I am just sick about it. And then I think that it is damn close to every day recently. Grocery store, church, school - how can anyone be ok with this?

Fuck them all. Just fuck them.
I wish hemerrhoids on their genitals. I want them to suffer the way the parents are suffering, for the way they prioritize their own power over the lives of children.
Damn their souls, if they even have them.
May their lives be a constant state of papercut between their fingers, a mosquito one never catches in the bedroom, a smoke alarm one can never find. May every shoe they own give them corns, every sock cut off their circulation, every beer skunked, every bath towel smeared with shit.

Our wings are not tired.
Pretty much feel the same as Consuela. I tried to watch the news this morning but only managed 10 minutes.

Yeah, I lost all hope for change after Sandy Hook.
I don't think anything can be done in terms of gun control; there are just too many people who are passionately opposed to any gun restrictions. Nowadays even if the Dems could somehow manage the votes, it would probably be struck down by the courts anyhow. At best, I think there could be a call for red flag laws, but if anything was passed it would so onerous to apply that it would be ineffective.
I keep thinking about the time my daughter tried to commit suicide and finding her was the worst moment in my life even though she recovered. I also think by my BIL who suffered a gunshot wound in his late teens and even though he survived it shattered his life and the lives of his parents. It's really bringing me down.
