Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

One of these days, a fake zombie outbreak and a real zombie outbreak will happen at the same time and place.

Because books.

Your boss is an ass, but this too shall pass.

This could be the start of a great limerick.

It really sounds like the one guy there is the true asshole, msbelle. Which is a shame -- I never understand why people like that aren't the ones let go.

Resume~ma to all, especially Theo, Consuela, msbelle, and Maria.

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

Do you agree that she might be the most famous anonymous face of our time? I hadn't realised she's not anonymous anymore (just a year after the previous NPR article). One of my friends in university was obsessed with her.

Because books.

I think she's probably as iconic as the woman in the famous Depression-era photo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I knew who it was before I clicked, so yeah.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Yes, I would agree.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Jesse and I are as one. Except I'm much shorter.

This woman, Amy? To be honest, she's not famous to me. I assume being American helps with that, since it's not a topic I'd given much thought to.

Am I ever going to stop being exhausted? My body aches and another early meeting today. At least it's on a work from home day again.
