Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

WAHOOOOOOOO! That is fan-fucking-tastic news! Congratulations, Sara!

Yay Sara!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

On a scale of 1 to Grey Gardens, how weird is it to tie my hair back with a broken pair of earbuds? Despite possessing roughly eight million hairbands, none of them are with me today.

Yay, sara!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay Sara!

That's a little weird, Dana. Can you braid it or use a rubber band?

meara. Can you go to the bar as soon as it opens up and check?

This is my plan (well, after going home from this doctor appointment and checking my pants). Sadly the bar does not open until 3pm.

No rubber bands! This is what happens when we're a paperless society.

I should mention, I'm not roaming around like this. Just sitting at my desk, and currently with my door closed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like it -- you could start a new trend!

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

Are you able to, like, bury the earbuds and plug into your hair?
