We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Congrats, Consuela!

Bleah. Snowplow came through our neighborhood at 5:45 am, and I couldn't go back to sleep after that.(Wasn't even that much snow on the ground.)

Punishingly Intricate

Congrats, Consuela!!! That's very impressive!

I *love* fixing problems like that in Word. Word Nerd! I wish you could just send me your doc to fix, Todd, but I only have Office on my work computer and I goes doing someone else's work on it would br frowned on

I've been coming to terms with JW's terribleness for years, and the pain of that is fresh now that we're getting more details from more people who worked on sets. Some of his work I will reclaim in ways that don't benefit him financially, and some of his work he can fucking keep because there's nothing there that I want to bring with me.

This is where I am.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But, Steph, if they were being stupid in a way you were forced to notice, wouldn't corrections be satisfying? "Nope!" *smash* *tosses the pieces into a box*

Oh man, that would be THE BEST.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Re: the whole Joss thing, I'm reminded of Liz Lemon's discovery on 30 Rock that she was not the bullied nerd in HS as she had imagined but the one with the cutting and cruel tongue who hurt other people.

I have no doubt he was lacerating on set and shitty.

Puppy got his first snow today! He loved it and wanted to dash about but was on leash (poor baby)

Hey. New board.

I will say this about Buffy.

Since finding this place 'round about the airing of Wonderfalls, I have known what a good and healthy internet community looks like. I have been lucky enough to find and participate in several of them over the years.

I have noticed that no matter the ostensible reason for the community - a Broadway show, a video game podcast, whatever - there are always a healthy number of people who claim Buffy as a favorite, or their absolute favorite. Buffy inspires lots of good people.

It is awful that Joss was/is a terrible person, and if I could go back and block him from that power I would, in a heartbeat, save Charisma and the others from that toxicity; Buffy wasn't worth that horror.

But those of us who found something beautiful and wonderful and worthy of love and connection within the show are not to blame, and not wrong. Allyson, supporting the community that loved the show was, and is, a good thing. The man is not the show. And even the show is not the people. And the people are worth all of the love, and time, and energy, and devotion that you put into them.

Our wings are not tired.

Indeed, Gris. Thank you, and others, for their expression of my feelings.

Just saw the Chick Corea died. He was a big part of the reason I fell in love with jazz back in the early 70s.

Hey. New board.

I just found out my uncle died last night. He was posting goofy stuff on Facebook 14 hours ago.

I am sad.

I’m so sorry, Gris.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm sorry, Gris. My condolences.
