Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Shir, THESIS!!! Congratulations! I know it was a long haul for your brilliant and very deserving of all the honors self!

Congratulations, Shir! That's huge. And I support your vision of ponies and surprise money, too.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yay Shir!!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

and I vote for shiny ponies, a surprise bag of money, more humane politics and politicians, and a beverage of choice

You've got my vote!

I'm just poking my nose in here to say I haven't done my greeting cards yet, but I fully intend to still, so don't give up on me! I bought stamps last week fully expecting to get them out this past weekend, but my still-not-quite-back-to-normal GI system had other ideas. But I will yet prevail!

Our wings are not tired

Last year, and honestly the year before that have been a lot. I'm not sure how to even put it into words.

What is even happening?

Shiri, congratulations!

Plei, I am sorry about the house situation. It's so nice to see you here, though.

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

Voting for ponies! And congratulations on submitting your thesis, Shir!
