Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy birthday, Bev!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am glad your mother froze her out. I hope she got that message clearly.
btw, you need to keep notes because we all expect a novel. you know this, right?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Or how about a TV show? Revenge is doing well ...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm also apparently not supposed to call my mother a badass at her funeral, judging by her reaction to it at this one.
Thing is, my mother *is* a badass. So it might have come up. I'm glad to know.
the dog lost his camping privileges for the early wake-up call.
That'll larn him!
Except for the part where it won't...now won't only one of you be stuck with a dog that expects to be up and around in the wee hours at home?
I'm watching The American and I'm quite startled by just the beginning. Huh.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Except for the part where it won't...
Well, true, because it's been more than 15 seconds since it happened, so he now has no concept of anything in the past.
...now won't only one of you be stuck with a dog that expects to be up and around in the wee hours at home?
Yes, but the sad news for the Biscuit is that he is unable to wake me up. Which is why it's so annoying that he wakes the SO up, because when it's just the dog and me, he sleeps fine until 8. Or whenever I get up. It's the just the SO's light sleeping he disturbs, having effectively converted him into a morning person. Which I find weird.

Happy Birthday Bev!
I just got up from a nap. I wanted to stay in bed, but I knew it would be ugly if I slept all afternoon.

Wow. This man's kinks are interestingly precise: Dinosaurs, women in bikini tops and plaid miniskirts (judge worksafeness with that information). Like, for most of us, I guess you top out at "okay, now they all look alike" way sooner than he does. He goes on further on other pages to topless women in plaid miniskirts with dinosaur artifacts, but the weird thing is, the bikini/bra top is often still featured prominently in the picture.
I get weirded out when I feel like I'm in a guy's therapy session.

Cuba Gooding Jr is an ass. Just because he's a black guy speaking gibberish imitating "African" language doesn't make it not offensive. It still sounds stupid and just *bad*. And he's a big reason I haven't seen Red Tails.
I've seen some people defend the ESPN "Chink In The Armor" headline by saying the phrase isn't racist. Which, no, by itself it isn't. But when you use it about an Asian guy, lo and magically behold, it's suddenly racist. Stop making stupid excuses.
