Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Sigh...I've got a bunch of forms I need to fill out for the psychologist we're looking into for Mr. S when he gets out. Despite the fact that Gary's the one who contacted them, I'm listed as Parent #1. I'm gonna need Gary's help for the forms, but Mr. S is here for the weekend, and tends to want Gary with him all the time. So it looks like Sunday evening will be spent doing these forms, as we have an intake Zoom meeting on Monday.

Oh I’m so upset. Norah’s children are 22 and, I think, 20. Which is adult but not very old to lose their mother.

The status is NOT quo.

I’m just gutted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thank you, Polgara. I’m very sad to hear, but thank you

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Thanks for letting us know the sad news, Polgara.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, I'm so sad about Norah. Fuck this fucking year.

Absolutely too young to lose their mother. What a horrible loss. So glad we got to know her, even if too short a time. Man. People dying is stupid. I do not like it.
