Oh and leaves. I already shovelled a bunch that were in the street into a pile. Going to be doing several houses worth, since there's a vacant, a ne'er do well and an out of town. And I have to pay my next door neighbor back for last weekend. But it won't be just me. A couple other neighbors will be pitching in.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
However, if they slow things down, they have done so in a highly inconsiderate manner. Flying is stressful and the screening process is bad enough. Your objections to it shouldn't lengthen it for other people. That's just fuckery, sacrificing their experience for your message.
Okay. But that's pretty much the argument that gets pulled out against every strike ever. The tools that are available at this end of the food chain aren't always the nice and easy ones.

CSULB Masters of Fine Arts student puts together an exhibit on the Art of Procrastination.
A true exhibit to the art of procrastination would be a mostly empty room with some blank canvases; a few frames leaning against the wall; and a large pile of dirty coffee cups, doughnut boxes and pizza boxes.

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

I don't support every strike. I evaluate each strike on a case by case basis. I've evaluated this public resistance, and I think it's shit and I don't want it to inconvenience me because I think it's going to be highly ineffective.

Grey's Anatomy: Shonda Rhimes can't seriously be calling Callie a lesbian. But I read she was. Is English/the imagination that limited?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, that's obviously ridiculous.

Where are you seeing that, ita? Or just, in the last ep? I read the "sorbet" with Mark to be something of a refutation of that. Of course, the whole time they were in the bar and such, I was like "DUDE. Walk into a LESBIAN bar if you want to find fucking DYKES!" (aka "I think Callie is mad hot, even if she's not my usual type by a mile")

She did it meta-textually, meara. And Sara Ramirez countered it.

I'm confused.
