Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

You know the Rita Moreno episode of the Muppet Show never gets old or boring. Love her.

Love her singing "Fever" with Animal on the drums!

"Hey, buddy, [Spanish.] Cool it."
[Cymbal crash on Animal's head.]
"That my kinda woman!!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Chipotle carnitas bowl with the corn chile.

Guys, you're talking way too little.

No, I have no scintillating topics to jumpstart conversation, but I do need your distraction.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Here's a topic: Are there things that occur that you *know* you should get more het up about because it's offensive, but don't because really you just can't be bothered with one more thing?

(General "you", not ita "you".)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There are a range of issues that I know are important, but don't personally care enough to do anything about.

I finally did all of my tasks for the day! Now I want a snack. Maybe I'll go get ice cream.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Are there things that occur that you *know* you should get more het up about because it's offensive, but don't because really you just can't be bothered with one more thing?

Yes.

And I've successfully repressed them, so I can't give examples.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Now I want a snack.

Tater tots!!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ooh! I have a three day weekend. We're going to see Riordan Mansion in Flagstaff to look at the nifty Arts & Crafts architecture and Craftsman furniture.

Sadly, it's one of the many state parks that are closing this month due to the state budget crunch. Homolovi Ruins, near our home, is also closing, and I am gravely worried that irreparable damage to the ruins will result without security.

Peanut butter and banana won, actually.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The simple list is the list of things my sister does actually get het up about.

Except marketing. I can't bring myself to get mad at marketing. But other than that, she's got a pretty sensitive view of the world, but she has to take steps to shut herself off from certain sources of news because it puts a stranglehold on how she lives.

She doesn't ignore well. She boycotts a lot.

But I can pick up a plastic spoon with a lot less stress than her, or one of those veggie plastic bags in the supermarket. For her it's a stress cycle every single time. I have no idea how she functions.
