May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

It's fucking bullshit to let you come in on a Monday and cut you loose after an hour.

Well, in the guy's defense, he didn't know there was a problem until 5:30 on Friday. An hour after I had gotten off of work. And he was assured that there would be enough work for at least a couple of days if not all week.

Then we ran out of work a lot sooner than he expected. So he sent us home believing we would have new work in the morning. And then by the time I got home he'd been told that "no" the pug was being pulled on everything until after the first of the year.

He's been straight with us and let me work for a couple of days after he laid a bunch of other people off, so I don't blame him. It just sucks.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

As I explained in Bitches, not quite all, but most of the rest of the pictures and video from India [link]

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

Jesse, weirdness. I just had something disappear out of my tumblr queue and not post too. Luckily I was able to backclick and find the entry again.

Because books.

I think tumblr is having some growing pains.

That sucks, quester.

Thanks, all.

What is tumblr?

Here's a tumblr. It's basically a short form blogging site. Mostly, I think, used to disseminate pictures.

I have used pumpkin seeds successfully in pesto. Sometimes I mix them with pine nuts when pine nuts are insanely pricey.

Why do I get more drinks bought for me in airport bars when I am tired and have no makeup than when I go out?

You look like you need them?

There is no explaining the Nazis. Why did they devote so many resources in the waning days of the war to continue to steal art? If they were sure the Final Solution was righteous, why did they pull men off the front to desperately try to destroy the evidence at the end?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Because they were, ultimately, no more a monlith than any other human enterprise. In the end various parties primary interests shifted to "getting loot" and "covering our asses" - or at least more openly doing so.

Those were things ordered by the German high command. I understand individual CYOA actions and greed.
