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

Whoa, we're getting a bonus for 2020 to be paid out this month. We have never ever gotten a bonus before. I've been bitter about it.

Our wings are not tired.

Woo! Good news, -t. I'm hoping it helps the level of frustration there.

Nice, -t! Here's hoping it's the first of many.

Love that bracelet, dcp.

Yay for bonus, 't!

It's beautiful out today. I'm going to run an errand or two just to get out there. And there will be ice cream somewhere along the way, I think.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy birthday, Amy! Wishing you a relaxed day and something that makes you happy today.

I was certain that I'd have to wait until California opened to under 50s in ten days to begin to look for an appointment but the military stepped up (or got enough supply) and I have an appt for my first vaccine dose on Thursday morning. Given not everyone will wear a mask at work, very relieved.

There are also some people with long Covid who have had an ease of their symptoms with vaccination. Fingers crossed.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Nice bracelet, dcp. It's a good look for you.

Woo hoo on the bonus, -t!

Yay for imminent vaccination, Cass! This is wonderful news.

Happy birthday, Amy!

Thrive to spite them

I skipped. Sorry.

Can y'all spare lots of health and other ~ma to my cousin Jay and my Aunt Wanda and his son and my mom etc.

My aunt found Jay on the floor and unresponsive . He is in ICU. He had a brain bleed and the prognosis isn't good. My uncle flew down. My cousin has a GF as well.

He is a year younger than me. Sorry this is disjointed.

Also the mother of his son is not a good person or a good mother and I'm worried what will happen to his son if he doesn't make it.

What is even happening?

askye, I'm so sorry. All the good kinds of ~ma to your cousin, aunt, mom (and you too).

dcp, that's a great bracelet.

Amy, happy birthday to you!

I don't know where we're talking about the atmosphere on the Justice League set, and Joss & Ray Fisher these days, so I'm plunking it here.

Did anyone else read the THR report? As someone who filled her brain with too many of Joss's words for too long, I would bet folding money that the quotes attributed to JW are nearly verbatim. [link]
