I'm more concerned if he's out all day with no access to shelter or people around to keep an eye out for trouble.
That's what I'm worrying about. Or, more that they leave him out when they're not home at all.
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Man, we had a dog where in the dead of winter it would take a good 20 minutes of calling/coaxing/chasing to get her ass inside at night. They should have access to some kind of shelter but generally a few hour stretch won't bother them.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
We once had a cat that was incredibly territorial - no other cat or dog was allowed in her yard. One neighbor had a golden retriever - very sweet, very friendly, not too bright - and she'd sometimes wander over to visit when one of us was outdoors. If the cat saw her ... there'd be this white streak across the yard and the dog would run for her life.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So...lunch with the HR Director was...lunch with the HR Director. Apparently I'm not the only one to have thought "exit lunch???" because she gets that it freaks people out. Not that it's changed how she communicates, but there you go. It was only mildly uncomfortable, since I do actually like talking about myself. Also, my family is cooler than your family.
They're just picking names out of a hat, and every week she has lunch with three employees. This week she picked three immigrants--Honduras, The Philippines, and Jamaica. For some reason, the guy who moved here from Honduras wouldn't specify further than "Central America" until he was pushed on it. Yet, he's the one with the most obvious accent. I wonder what that was about? He was also the one talking about the "American way of life" in venerating tones. Filipina and I are all "old school values for the win!"

Remember I mentioned Buffy was pregnant? Here's how they're handling it. So far, it seems well done.

Yeah, The Mary Sue has a post today on that topic as well, ita. Looks fairly promising.

Joss is either shit or the shit. Let's hope this one works out for the latter.

One of the guidance counselors at Sara's school does that with the kids.
