@brassmerino okay, thank you! :D and barring some kind of weirdness I'll see you tomorrow, and KITTIES YAY *bounce*
@brassmerino a couple of questions...
* are we still on for tomorrow?
* is lunch at Olympia?
* I know it's super late in the organizing, but could I bring my Spouse? he's not on Mastodon, but he is very interested in Meowtropolitan. :)
* thank you for organizing this! (not a question, just <3)
@noelle thank you very much for writing this up and posting it!
@noelle wow, this... wow. I'm going to have to do some research and think about this, because... yeah. *yeah, this*.

Dictionary.com's 2017 Word of the Year: "complicit" http://www.dictionary.com/e/word-of-the-year-2017/
includes a lengthy essay about why it's the word of the year, closing with:
"Our choice for Word of the Year is as much about what is visible as it is about what is not. It’s a word that reminds us that even inaction is a type of action. The silent acceptance of wrongdoing is how we’ve gotten to this point. We must not let this continue to be the norm. If we do, then we are all complicit."
@cute_weeds y'know how some nerds seem to reel off quotes from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" given the slightest semi-provocation? I used to hang with a social group that did the same with "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern," and despite having watched the movie at least a dozen times I never could keep up. SOCIAL FAILURE MODE ENGAGED
@cute_weeds my hindbrain seems somehow convinced that being able to accurately quote R&GaD is a survival skill on par with CPR and the ability to properly (and improperly) use a crowbar
@cute_weeds *wedging further under desk* "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead", and I'm a giant green goofball
@cute_weeds *utterly fumbles R&GaD quote attempt, hides under desk in humiliation*
this is what 20 charisma looks like

@cute_weeds I've been frequently not on boats in my life...
@cute_weeds I have been personally isolated from an island for decades
I fucking just can't with this paper right now 😂
"Methanolysis of the Cyclic Acetal Function of NanoKid Catalyzed by NanoGoblin, the Pyridinium Salt of Tetracyanocyclopentadienide"
@Momentrabbit Pooka would probably let me put his toebeans in my ear, but there's no way Nar would, heh. XD that'd be an interesting experience, though....
