Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Dear NYT spelling bee: seriously, “wanna” is an acceptable word???

Xanadu, in case you were wondering, is not

As always, "yeet" is still not.

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Or "jawn." Big fan of "jawn."

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Hadn't heard of "jawn" before, had to look it up.

Sheryl, it's always sudden. I'm sorry. Trudy, totally thought those Fetterman e-mails were doing, like, LOLPups...didn't realize that was a thing for them!(although Levi and Artie write cute mail.)
