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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

insent both. I think this is the last of the "short enough to ask for a beta reader" essays for a long while. I appreciated all the help so much!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Allyson, backsent, with a second look to follow later tonight.

I've got writers group tonight. Usually a pleasure. Tonight, I'm about as antisocial as I've ever been. Not looking forward to smalltalk over pasta this evening, at all.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I can also beta read, if you need anyone else.

The status is NOT quo.

Received and read Allyson--it may be a bit before backflung depending on the level of response you're seeking.

Do you mind if I add comments and track changes, or would you rather just get a short narrative response?

Also, just as an initial thought, lots of good stuff there. It's a very enjoyable read.
