Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

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

Well, he went out for a walk with Gary, and ran off. Called 911, and wrangled him back home. Now we're trying to get him to go to bed...

Ugh today was another feeling super sick all day. I had planned to go to the soccer game tonight but decided I didn’t have the energy which is a bummer, because I don’t get to see my friends either.

Have eaten all of a couple saltines and a tiny bit of granola bar today. Trying to decide if ordering ramen or pho would be a good plan—I still feel iffy but also like I need to eat something?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

JZ's tummy was wonky tonight so she took a nausea med and then tentatively ate a bit of baguette with butter. Success! Followed by another small bit of bread and butter.

Side note: I can't get over how ridiculous Camilla looks in that crown. Absurd and laughable.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

It really highlights how ridiculously dated and just generally off the whole thing is.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh Sheryl, I am so sorry.

Side note: I can't get over how ridiculous Camilla looks in that crown. Absurd and laughable.

Seriously, I haven't seen anything except a few blips on the news and burst out laughing. Complete lack of anything that could be called charm or grace.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

There’s a guy here at the bar with a man-bun, a pencil mustache, several gold chains, and an ascot. I don’t know what to make of it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

That's a lot of stereotypes to uphold all at once.

Perhaps he just lost a bet?

Timelies all!

Mr. S is back at the facility. This morning went reasonably well, as did lunch. Something about bedtime that brings out the worst in him...

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Aw, man, Vida Blue died. One of my first clear memories is watching him pitch on TV for the Oakland A's before I had any idea where Oakland was. I only knew that my father had lived there once.

After observing Mr. Mays's 92nd yesterday, losing Mr. Blue at 73 feels way too early.
