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

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Aw, I think the doll is cute. She reminds me of my maternal grandmother; just needs a wine-colored cardigan instead of the fancy dress.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

If they start selling meat pies do not buy them.

Thrive to spite them

So a 5050 split on the bill vote and Vance broke the tie

And when people start really suffering there will be Republicans who voted for it who will talk about how they regret their vote

Also Dad is in the hospital. He had a colonoscopy 3 weeks ago and started having bleeding. This happened to him last year. Tomorrow he has a colonoscopy and endoscopy, which is what they did last year.

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

constant sound of a buzz saw coming from the back of that room, and outside the store there were plastic tubs holding wrapped packages of ground turkey. Outside. In the hot weather and direct sun.

Raise your hand if you feel like spoiled turkey is the best case scenario for what's going on here.

It feels like the Pork Store from the Sopranos got a new location.(Except Satriale's had a nice deli in the front.) I am just...always angry. Not to mention the fact that I have forgotten what happiness or hope for the future might have felt like way before this(Don't worry, to fill the hole, I've got workshops and a bunch of thankless labor on the phones) Not to mention, even if they left it alone, Medicaid sucks. So being disabled and winning would have felt like losing.(Still better than turning folks loose to forage, or whatever they think will happen, but it's a stingy, miserable experience.)

Scare quotes seem like they might be appropriate for the "ground turkey."

Yeah, Epic, I saw that after my rant. Tough break.
