Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Always Anti-fascist!

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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

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."

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.

Interesting choice for Tim W;s music. Keep on Rocking in the free world.

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!).

Tim Walz is such a delightful choice. I knew absolutely nothing about him prior to the pick, but having spent the last few decades around coaches it seems I have known him forever. I will be able to sleep at night with Kamala and Tim in control. They make a brilliant contrast. Some kids will still say both sides are the same, but even my son and his girlfriend came out to watch his speech and none of the others. They love him.
