Jeez Louise, msbelle.
Good whoa, or omg those guys are grumpy whoa, smonster?
WHOA THAT IS CLEAN whoa. I may not watch the show anymore, but I still like the guys.
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Because books.
Also, is it a thing with twins that they don't give a rat's ass about what their adult wants, as long it amuses the other twin?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Take care of yourself, Jess! Pneumonia is nothing to fuck around with.

MAC. Here's hoping this is a brief bump in the road?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What a fascinating topic, I've never heard of them.
Me neither, though I am a little familiar with Tri-Racial Isolate groups (like The Ben Ishmaels). It's a revealing window into America's weirdo notions about race which have gone through wild fluctuations in different eras.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I may not watch the show anymore, but I still like the guys.
I hadn't realised they were kinda grumpy until the co-worker pointed at another picture and said "Except there! They're dapper there!" And I realised it was a picture of Jensen and Jared so I took it down and put up another Winchester picture.
But they are really grumpy.
However, the alternative *is* Batman, so this is the cheerful option.

Oof, Jess, that sucks. On the other hand, when I had pneumonia in November the antibiotics really did help pretty quickly, even if it took a while longer to be 100%

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There are also the Ramapough in New Jersey. Discussion about their racial background can get pretty controversial, though.

Prevailing czech attitudes toward the Roma when I was there shudder. We had one professor, of politics and history, who was the only member of his family to survive the Nazis, and had deeply disturbing memories of being 6 and fleeing in the night with only their clothes and his father's violin and watching member after member of his family being caught, succumbing to the harsh conditions...and then would casually suggest rounding up all the Roma into ghettos being a good idea. Still blows my mind.
I went on a reading binge many years back of Bury Me Standing, After Such Knowledge What Forgiveness? (Kurds), Drinking the Sea at Gaza, Me Against My Brother (Somalia) and of course, a reread of my library of books on the former Yugoslavia (too long to list) capped off with A Problem From Hell: America and the Age of Genocide. Probably all in a year. Oh, and Blackhawk down and the Black Tulip.
And then I had to take a break. Shocking!
