Shit's all sorts of different now.

Now that they put their money where their mouth is

How is one $150,000 contribution put toward one local PAC worth more than the millions in direct benefits to supporting their LGBT their employees annually, worldwide putting their money where their mouth is?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

In the sense that they said they gave the money because he is corporation friendly.

I have a friend who is a buyer/director of something or other who benefits from their policies. I still think that donation was a massive fail.

No, they said the PAC they donated to is corporation friendly.

And it was a massive fail - I won't say otherwise. But I don't think that looking at one donation to one group is the entire picture when historically, Target has supported lots of issues on both sides of the fence is entorely fair to say "That's what they believe".

Edited to finish my thought that suffered from Childus Interuptus.

(And also? God save me from a recalcitrant 5 year old who is being a PITA about cleaning her room. And also a mother who likes to revise history and tell me she didn't so things she damn well did do. Hmph.)

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

Have you seen them all? I'm totally a fanboy. Not a dud in the mix.

Yeah. I didn't love Insomnia or Following, but he did usurp Ang Lee in terms of hit rate, because they were still pretty good movies. And the ones of his I love...man, he got Batman right--twice. I almost don't care if he gets it right a third time.

Aw Aims, I thinks such is the nature of mothers and five year olds.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, Insomnia is probably my least favorite, even though I really liked it, but he's got a 100% hit rate with me.

Serial:

We seem to have hit upon a working method - she chooses a song (Poker Face). She has the length of that song to complete a task (pick up all books and put them away).
