You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

Sometimes when I pee, it's in the toilet. I don't know how it got there.

Jennifer Love Hewitt knows.

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

Jennifer Love Hewitt knows.

I know.

Great. The Jamaican will have his match aired. Because he's playing Andy Murray. Well, it was nice while it lasted.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I just saw something on Gawker I can't unsee and now I'm a wreck.

I hate hate hate some people.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

So the hostages are free and the hostage-taker is in custody, though they don't know if there are more explosives in the building.

(Which you wouldn't necessarily know if you had been watching MSNBC, which cut to three commercials as this, the only new information released in about 3-4 hours, was being announced by the chief. Nice work, news!)

DJ, I think I know what you saw. Humans, indeed.

I have "Age ain't nothing but a number" stuck in my head now. It's the song I think of as the dirty-old-man song, and it's making me feel defensive. Which, silly. I'm a good girl. Woman. Whatever.

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

Huh. MSNBC is saying the police killed the hostage-taker.

The humans? The planet does not need humans.

Well, I hope that eases the conscience of whoever had to pull the trigger.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So far MSNBC is the only news source (Twitter doesn't count) saying he's dead. Other networks are saying he was shot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In totally unimportant news, the hotel around the corner from my house has flight attendants staying there, and they are always getting into a shuttle when I walk by on my way home. First, I think it's a fairly nice hotel, so huh. Second, I can't figure out what airline they are with! Because of course I can't obviously stare at them. The uniforms are red with some purple accents -- I think the men have purple vests. Also, the women wear a shitload of makeup. It's impressive to look at outside in daylight!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Whoa. I had an internship at that Discovery location a few years ago.
