Our wings are not tired.

Somehow I didn't notice! But my son did call me on his actual phone since he couldn't use Messenger.

Always Anti-fascist!

Just checked it, like, "Wow, that was boring," then saw the headline for the outage. Have sort of turned against FB since I got spoofed and had to clean up fake accounts, etc. That was a pain considering I mostly have no Big News that my worlds must collide to share.

Hi, drop in hello -- I"m up to August in reading Natter.

Does anyone in borg have IMDB Pro? Lemme explain: One of the managers where I worked (excellent dude, left our agencies' area of expertise to head up The Princes Trust, yes, that prince/king [died way too young & married someone else so I can't reach him to ask]) dated an actress/writer for years, who was friends with my best friend at work, who was a photographer. Before our mutual friend died of AIDS, he gave me a fabulous large format glamour photo - one of a series - of the actress. She had a small part as a nurse in Paris, Texas. She's in IMDB but any info to reach her is behind IMDB Pro. I would like to write to her and ask her if she wants this photo, because I have to declutter and just can't keep it any longer. I'd hate to send it to Goodwill. So, (A) could someone with IMDB Pro help me get a contact / agent / anything way to reach her? If this effort completely fails - I don't know who else I can ask who might know someone who knows someone with IMDB Pro! (B) does does anyone want a wildly glamour kind of Marlene Deitrich-esque fabulously framed photo? Silvery frame, cream silk mat + silver & gold beveled mat. It's gorgeous. Edit: also heavy, so local would be good.

I can’t brag on Facebook because I have some kind of wholesome classy reputation to live up to, but you all can know that Dillo got into UMass Amherst! Which was the toughest place he applied to so I assume he’ll have choices.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yay, Dillo!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yay, Dillo! Good work!

I don't have IMDB pro, erika, but I hope you find someone--that picture sounds like an amazing thing for the photo-ee to have.

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

Woo, Dillo!

Woo hoo! That's great. Did you know that the band The Pixies formed there? [link]
