Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

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

Aw, Scrappy, I'm so sorry.

That sucks, Scrappy.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, Aeryn birthday.

Okay. I have, what, twenty minutes between games? That's totally in line with the 15 minutes principle, right?

Almost 3,000-year-old tomb of female singer found in Egypt

Prior to reading the story, I'm like: how did they know this body was of a singer? Will they who Gaga is 3000 years from now? Or Aretha Franklin? Or Joni Mitchell?

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

I hope you're doing as okay as possible, Scrappy.

I just had my hair cut by the nicest barber. He was insanely quick (once I convinced him I really just wanted the #1 blade), and then WASHED WHAT WAS LEFT OF MY HAIR afterwards. When I cut my own hair, I step right into the shower to get rid of all the shorn strands, but he's the first professional that has thought to do that. And It had never occurred to me to ask. And it's not like he charged me for a wash or anything. So, nice tip.

Today has been sadly heteronormative (well, except for that intensely sexy-voiced woman in the pharmacy who liked my GL t-shirt). The barber tells me he wants to wear high heels sometimes but he can't because men aren't allowed to, and the checkout guy in TJ's tells me that he doesn't like to put away the round ornaments off the Christmas tree, because that's not manly.

Needless to say, I only feel sympathy for one of those guys.

Because books.

I'm so sorry, Scrappy, but you did the right thing for her, today, and during her life with you. Lots of love there.

how did they know this body was of a singer?

I haven't clicked yet, but maybe stuff found in her tomb?

Putting away, like, star-shaped ornaments is manly, but round ones not? WTF?

Maybe he only puts away the twig-and-berries ones.

S. is making pork belly for dinner because he apparently thinks he's a Top Chef. I hope it's good. I've never had it.
