That seems like a good plan, askye.
I hope the stomach issues abate soon, JZ.
Work is worky, July is hot, Indy totally deserves the comfy chair at this point, and AO3 people are writing fic about Anonymous Sudan/AO3.
2023, bay-bee!
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Anonymous Sudan/AO3?? Explain??
I am v relieved that I did not buy a new emergency plane ticket last night (I figured it would be just as expensive today, since yesterday was already less than a week away) and then this morning the strike was over! So hopefully all should be well by the time I fly Tuesday!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Anonymous Sudan is the group that took responsibility for the DDOS on AO3, though the speculation is that it's probably Russia behind the group.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Today is Mr. S's birthday. He turns 8. He'll be home for 2 nights starting tomorrow. We tried to ask him what he'd like to do on Saturday when we talked to him on Zoom today, but he wasn't very helpful. (His birthday party was going to be Saturday, but none of the kids we invited were available. So now the party is first weekend in August.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Our wings are not tired.
Happy birthday to Mr. S! May this be the year things really turn around for him.
Congratulations, Gud!!

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congratulations to the couple! So happy making to read.
Also happy making - I just read a FB post from a guy I knew in college talking about how he’s been getting his girlfriend (wife? I forget their actual relationship. I don’t really talk to him I just see his posts sometimes) to watch Buffy and they are up to OMWF. I’m not going to explain to him why I in particular am so pleased, but I’ll tell y’all that I am :)
