I look more rad than Lutheranism

Spoiler:

That sounds about right, based on what little I know.

My brother is dying for the MCU to bring in Kang and thinks the Loki series is setting that up.

My upstairs neighbor thinks the same thing.

Right now, like 75% of the texts between my brother and me are about the MCU (the other 25% is dog and/or opossum memes) (and I did text him on my birthday to inform him that I made it to 50 without a heart attack, so the Lang DNA can SUCK IT; he replied "Happy Birthday, but way to put all the pressure on me now.").

That Marriott elevator and interior is instantly recognizable.

The elevator that looks like a spinal column is real? That's pretty cool.

I guess we should move any further Loki/MCU chatter to the thread we created specifically for it.

And non-MCU related: did I read that there's going to be an animated sequel to Smallville with the original cast, or did I hallucinate that?

[Okay, back to work.]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I didn't catch it, but Loki's desk is on the 10th floor, where there are big open areas that different groups use to gather and play games, do photoshoots, balance stuff on their feet, etc.

UGH! Mac's car needs an engine replacement. $8000+. The whole car only cost a little over $10K. Not sure this is worth it.

I HATE EVERYTHING!

OK, I.was expecting that to italicize.

I don't think the quick-edit formatting has been working since we moved the Board.

did I read that there's going to be an animated sequel to Smallville with the original cast, or did I hallucinate that?

It's in development by Rosenbaum and Welling and not a sure thing, I think? That news got a bit overshadowed by the recent SPN shenanigans, though.

balance stuff on their feet, etc.

Some of us do love dunking on Sword Guy.

Our wings are not tired.

Super Ugh! Not a big car decision expert, but it seems a replacement might be in order. Do you trust the mechanic?

I trust the mechanic. Family seems to be in consensus that a new used car is better than new engine.

Issue is none of use are inclined to give it to Mac and getting him to pay us back is near impossible. He has no means to buy on his own and will not meet expectations to work with us on rent so why would he do so on a car payment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugghhhh. That sounds like a no-win situation.

Yay, Drew!

Congrats, flea!

Everything else I skimmed by!

I am ancient and out of practice, because I was out last night until nearly 10 (!) and had two (!) cocktails, and am kind of wrecked today. But probably 75% of that is just the week I've had so far.

I did use quick-edit on my Spoiler font. So some of it works.
