There's a reason that was used as a punishment...
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Fail. You have to make that road trip with trains.
And legally change your name to John Galt before you set off.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It's like the people protesting the Atlantic Yards development because it was destroying the "neighborhood." Um, yeah, I was living in Prospect Heights at the time and a) it was not part of the neighborhood, and, even if it was, most of that neighborhood was a total eyesore.
Most of the protesting I saw was more sophisticated than that. People weren't protesting development in general, they were protesting the idea that Bruce Ratner should be allowed to turn an area zoned for low-income housing into his own personal sleazy tax shelter. Not to mention the fact that the original Gehry "Miss Brooklyn" design looked like a teratoma.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The main opposition group to the Atlantic Yards was called, "Develop, Don't Destroy", affirming that something needed to be done with the rail yards.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Brother sleeping in piles of dirty laundry and junk he dragged from his bedroom out to the hall and stairway: Why are you taking pictures?
Me: Because no one believes me when I talk about how it is around here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hrrpmh. Office Depot and Staples both said that I could order the liquid graphite pen online, but I can't find it in stock on either site. Sharpie.com doesn't have it either.
Why must my need for near-instant gratification be flouted so?

The liquid graphite pen(cil) isn't coming out until September. And apparently, this is the sort of thing you can't preorder. (I tried to get one too.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey Perkins -- the best part of my day so far was getting complimented on my dress. The dress you gave me! So, thanks!

Excellent!
