No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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.

And now they’re claiming he had a manifesto? Really? But didn’t trumpet it anywhere, just carried it around?? That seems odd also. Was his earlier success a fluke, or is this all super sus?

In non-shooter news, I accomplished some adulting today, namely, getting my mammogram and my pneumococcal vaccination. I also got #1 of the Hep B series since it turns out that not bothering to get that third shot in your mid-20s because the guy you are dating with Hep B breaks up with you means you have no immunity. (I had my MMR and Hep A/B titers checked when I did bloodwork before Thanksgiving.)

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

Something expressing "ill will towards corporate America" is not super damning

I don't know what a ghost gun is. I'm betting the reality is not as interesting as I am imagining.

Go megan with the self care! I still need my Covid shot, maybe tomorrow afternoon

You need to start treating stairs (and probably curbs too) as a potential threat that requires focus.

Both those things ARE threats for me. Stupid stupid back.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Stairs are the worst. I can't wait to get into our new house with the primary bedroom downstairs.

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

I don't know what a ghost gun is.

It doesn't have a serial number. There may be more points to the definition, but I think that's the primary one.

It can also be a gun which shoots a rapid fire stream of angry ghosts at your enemies who will be seriously slimed.

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

Waaaaa, I need the bubble wrap.

Duly noted. It shall be sent immediately.

I'm not bruise free but I've been so much better since I realized the sodium thing and even more so since I added potassium and magnesium to my supplements.

Both those things ARE threats for me. Stupid stupid back.

Same.
