Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

I do nothing to counter the stereotype the GenX abuses the fuck out of the ellipsis, huh? Oh, well. I'll own it.
The ellipsis are our Precious.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

If it weren't for my parens thing, I'd have an ellipsis thing.

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

Timelies all!

We finally had the IEP meeting today. Mr. S will be starting at the same school he was at last year, but referrals are being sent to non-public schools that would better serve his needs.

That which does not kill you should RUN

I mean, if you're a germaphobe and/or not willing to eat food that's hanging on a wooden peg on a wall

You had me at "donut wall."

Our wings are not tired.

Sheryl, I hope that Mr. S is placed in a school that is a good fit.

Right?

The ellipsis are our Precious.

Also, "Right?"

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I heard on IPR of NPR in Iowa, say that the states picked their own songs for the roll call.

Yeah. But he walked out to "Small Town" by Mellencamp, which I loved.

I wonder if Bruce will show up this year? Seems like the zeitgeist has moved past having Springsteen at your rally.

I am finding myself hopeful these days. Makes it easier to sleep. But it is weird to think about being 2 degrees from POTUS. If it happens, which I hope it does.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Remember the zoom roll call from 2020? They took the necessity of doing it remotely and found a way for each state to express some personality. It was fantastic! This year's DJ party was a fun evolution from that (We won't go back!).
