You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I score pretty well on carbon footprint just by virtue of living in an apartment with no car and not travelling a lot. I figure my using plastic spoons is the least of the earth's worries.

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

I think about the environmental impact of what I do. But I think she ulcerates about having to put the tomatoes in a separate bag from the grapes. I can't imagine. I just watch.

I was not expecting that crash article to have a picture of the crash. Colour me naive that way.

I think they were replaying the crash on TV. I don't know if they've stopped since he's now dead.

I was so bored at work this afternoon, I resorted to cat stacking.

And my boss's puppy started limping today at work and noone knows why. I hope it doesn't put an end to Puppy Fridays.

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?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by this--like, above people are talking about environmental impact they have, do you mean that i should be more worried about like "OMG, I should be doing X Y and Z" kind of thing? Or more like "The Senate is NOT APPROVING THIS BILL THAT IS A TRAVESTY!" kind of thing? Cause the first one...well, I suppose if I thought about it, I would know I should be, but I don't even tend to think about it overly much. I mean, my carbon footprint might be OK ...except for all the PLANE TRIPS I take. Etc etc.

As for the "taking offense at shit"---yes. There is definitely times when I feel like I should be protesting more things and doing more writing to representatives and signing more petitions and educating more bigots and yadda yadda. But I get tired. Heck, even in my own life. Though just last night I finally managed to call a friend out on something that's been bugging me that a bunch of my friends have been doing for a long time, and I resolved a while back to start saying something about. And it felt good. And I want to keep saying something when it happens.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Was it here we were talking about kickass chick movies for Valentine's Day? I'm thinking Foxfire...
