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.

Jilli, how do you feel about these? I'm entranced, but I don't know if I could wear them.
I love the idea of the paper false lashes, but I can't imagine anyone wearing them except for photo shoots.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
It is a Christmas miracle. KCD just stopped by so I could go over his response to the $286,000 tax bill he got (we, jointly, only owe $360). We had a fairly productive talk about the past tax stuff, future tax stuff, and child support money in general. He still owes me money, but at least he doesn't go on the full defensive when we talk about it. I'm kinda shocked. Scratch that, VERY shocked.

He doesn't owe that much, just the $360. Which we will split. They tried to hit him with the full house sales price as taxable gain when the true gain is below the exclusion amount. You aren't supposed to report the sale if you don't have a taxable gain. So the whole thing is really stupid. I really wanted to attach that part of the tax code to the response letter.

How the ‘World’s Most Expensive Car Crash’ happened.
Yeah, it's really heartbreaking. That, you know, all those cars were damaged. I know it's Jalopnik, but damn--cold.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Can we abolish the DMV and give all their money to the USPS?
Signed, wasted 4 fucking hours this morning waiting in line only to be told I couldn't register my car without ORIGINAL signatures from both owners, which raises the question WHY THE FUCK DID THE FIRST GUY TELL ME TO GET FAXED ONES???
