Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Sick and numb. I’m not going to be ok for a while.

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

Deciding to check my phone real quick at 4 am was a mistake. Love you all, everyone else is deeply suspicious

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I don't feel worse than in 2016, because I was totally blindsided by those results. For this election, I knew Trump winning was possible, but didn't seem likely. So I feel like shit, and I'm angry, and really bitter. Like, of fucking COURSE this country is a bunch of Christofascist misogynist transphobic homophobic racist science-denying bigots.

I think I'll have all the leftover Halloween candy for breakfast.

Our wings are not tired.

I am not okay. Turned off the news at 1AM. I can't believe fear and hate won.

I have to take the dog to the vet. I have a nail appointment this afternoon. I have to help my son with work stuff. I don't want to leave the bed. Ever. I don't want to see people because X number of them created this mess.

My heart goes out to you from afar.

Yes. Not shocked but even more appalled

Yes, Steph and -t have put into words what I haven't been able to articulate.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I guess I'm taking the day off and going back to bed.

Punishingly Intricate

I found out at 5 when Bob checked his phone. I took some Xanax which helped me go back and sleep for a few more hours of this terrible day at least. I have to get out of bed and work somehow soon though

hwæt

I didn't get any sleep at all last night. And since there's construction going on in my building, I'm at work.
