Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'

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 must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

We got a message from the higher ups that we should try to avoid having meetings next Weds., rescheduling existing ones if needed. I think they figure everyone would be watching the news in another window anyway, so they might as well just roll with it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I mean, if we go by the coup > impeachment > ??????? timeline, Wednesdays are honestly a little cursed. I wouldn't want to be making any major business decisions.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I now need to figure out how to get out of a meeting by yelling "Bat!" and disappearing.

I scheduled the day off. Between that and it being the 10th anniversary of Mom's death, I know my attention for work will be minimal.

AAAAAUGH A SECOND MEETING FOR TOMORROW NOOOOO.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh. I guess calling into the meeting, screeching "NO-MEETING FRIDAY", and logging off would be unprofessional, wouldn't it?

The problem is that it's just No-Meeting Friday in my unit, and most of the meetings are with other units. And one I scheduled myself. But one is really egregious!

AAAAAUGH A SECOND MEETING FOR TOMORROW NOOOOO.

Nooooooo!!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Or yell "smoke bomb!" and run away. (Actual smoke bomb optional, as seen here: [link] )

Seems foolproof, honestly.

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

I feel like working some glitter in somehow might help, but it’s probably not necessary
