I can't believe I'm using brain cells up on Chris Brown, but I laughed to read that his mother apparently thinks he's being an ass, and that he did indeed make the juvenile offensive tweet that he quickly deleted (along with most of his feed, take that, Library of Congress!). Combine that with the story of the parent that made her daughter stand on a street corner holding a sign admitting to stealing from her family, and I really want to see Skeezy Breezy at Hollywood & Vine holding a placard saying "I beat the shit out of a woman I professed to love, and I refuse to be contrite."

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

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Way cool, Scola!

Punishingly Intricate
Combine that with the story of the parent that made her daughter stand on a street corner holding a sign admitting to stealing from her family,
Oh, man, a few years ago I saw a maybe 13-14 year old girl walking down the main business street in my neighborhood crying and wearing a sign around her neck saying that she was a liar and something else I can't remember. It was clearly a parental punishment. Harsh!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Very nice, Tom!
My cat has the same last name as me, for the record....
