You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Deciding if I want to click Jesse's link.

Half of what makes it tough is parent stuff, so if you have any parent stuff, definitely make sure you are in a quiet room first! (This essay is not from the book.)

Ugh, my credit card has fraudulent charges. My bank is on top of it, which is great, but it's such a pain in the ass to have the card cancelled, wait for the new card to be sent, and then have a whole new credit card number to memorize.

That is so annoying.

I usually love when my meetings are canceled but sometimes I want the info and pinning someone down that a meeting allows for and canceling it means I have to keep sending annoyed emails. Do not like.

Also annoying!!

Argh also really annoying: booked a haircut a few weeks ago, stylist just canceled on me. Not the most important thing at all but once I really wanted to deal with and have done and was glad I’d managed to schedule.

I feel like Force Majeure would have to be a villain?? But totally should be.

But Major Force sounds so positive and strong!

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

I guess I could tie some onions to her belt.

You're half-right, Jesse! Major Force

Looks like the aliens have been here all X-Files style: [link]

I did not have credible whistleblowing about visitations by non-human intelligences on my 2023 bingo card, but sure, why not?

I just hope the aliens are hot. It's what we deserve.

The good news is, they are hot. The bad news is it's something they call "lava dick."

Our wings are not tired.

Lava dick does not sound like a good thing.

Air quality is sucky here in the Adirondacks. Canadian wildfires are causing a haze of nasty. People wearing masks and complaining of sore throats. I went out for a bit and it is kinda gross.

Lava dick is a bit of a deterrent, true.

I didn't think the wildfire haze would reach us, but it has, and our air quality suckity sucks. The haze makes the sky look cool at sunrise and sunset, though.
