It's a whole symbolic thing, based on, well, the breakdown of old patterns, like you are talking about.(Although I can appreciate Matilda not wanting to take on those resonances right at this particular instant, though. Don't get me wrong.) as a crime-fiction buff, though, I know more about Tragic Man-pain, though not from direct experience.
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I should go see The Boy and the Heron. I don't know that I've ever seen Miyazaki on the big screen

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thanks for the birthday happies! And HBD to Theo and Rayne, too!

I saw Fun Home (a dead dad story) literally three days after my father died, and was I ever relieved that the point of that show was that the dad sucked.

Re: vacations
Does anyone have hotel recs for Paris? Safe, inexpensive, close to metro would be ideal.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yeah, sometimes when you don’t expect it at all.
Laura, I know COVID isn’t restful. Being sick never really is. At any rate… I have the flu. Came home early from work, fever now 101.1. Most of the classic symptoms. I just got my flu shot a week ago Friday, here’s hoping it helps at least a little.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
msbelle, I stayed at the Hôtel Saint-Marc – 36 Rue Saint-Marc, 75002 Paris -- in late October of 2017, so pre-pandemic. It's a pretty short walk from Opéra station -- 600m or so along Boulevard des Italiens.
