Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We're watching Super Why. I think it's time to delete the 20 hours of Yo Gabba Gabba I have on the Tivo.
Have I mentioned I really like Grace's new nurse?
No, you haven't, Kat, but I am glad.
Oh Cash, my sympathies. I've been there before.
sara, I ♥ your parents.
Vortex - YOU ROCK!!!
Did she like them? I can make changes if need be.
Have I mentioned I really like Grace's new nurse?
Is that the guy, Kat?
Well done, Prof. Emeritusimeg!
Erin, you cleaned that shit up. Also, your lamp looks like a perfectly buffed and shiny butt.
ION, humanity continues to depress me as I saw the current cover of Newsweek (or Time?) that has a portrait of a young girl whose face was mutilated by the Taliban after she ran away from her abusive in-laws.
In specific: They cut off her nose and ears.
I don't know why this instance of human cruelty makes me want to stabbinate so many people (though, that's obviously the intent and provocation of the cover choice). But it definitely stirs a savage vengeful impulse. Plus, sadness. A bit of sick at the stomach and I can't shake the image.
I think it's partly because she's so beautiful. It's the (literal) human face thing -- I think hearing about atrocities in bulk makes them easier not to think about.
In better news about humanity, yay for a good nurse, Kat! Yay for your awesome dad, Sara!
I think it's partly because she's so beautiful.
I guess that's part of it. You can't help but notice that aspect as well.
Kat, very good news!
As much as my parents have quirks that make me INSANE, they are really truly awesome people, personally and professionally.
