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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

And even though I do still love Prince of Tides, I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to people, because it falls squarely in the category of books I like to call "Holy Shit This Family Is Severely Fucked Up." And while I tend to like those books, I never assume other people will.

For the three seconds before my phone list up with breaking news alerts, I did think Tom was responding oddly strongly to this.

Ha! Same.

Teppy, you literally judged a book by its cover? Yeah, your chops will be busted for that one.

I literally did. In my defense, I was 18. (That's not much of a defense, but it's better than Trump's defense.)

Our wings are not tired.

I'm grateful I can just listen to music and books on the way to NY instead of being on verdict watch. Hoping to leave super early morning. We shall see.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Ah, guilty verdicts on 34 charges. It’s a nice day. Sentencing is scheduled for 3 days before RNC, so there are some nice optics for ya.

Punishingly Intricate

Yeah, I wondered what part of the book discussion Tom was reacting to...

Guilty is good. I'll enjoy it in the moment, though I have scant hope that anything will make a difference. I'm a poop head. Ignore me.

I'm currently sitting in the Warner Theatre about to see a live recording of the Stuff You Should Know podcast, which is one of the very first ones I started listening to. I find the hosts goofily soothing.

Tim loves Chuck and Josh SO much! He's going to be jealous!

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

Timelies all!

Guilty! Woo-hoo!

In other good news, my mom is back home. Hopefully one of the doctors she'll be seeing in the next few weeks can figure out what's going on.

On the book thread - I once encouraged a friend to read "The Game of Kings" and she hated it. Compared Lymond unfavorably to Wesley Crusher. Needless to say, I don't do that any more.

Always Anti-fascist!

I used to rec "A Year On The Killing Streets", like, always. But everybody doesn't think that story about Jay Landsman and the slow leak is funny--to say nothing of the one with the pogo stick.
