@Leucrotta Oh, thank goodness, actually, I was afraid it was just me. You're still totally rad. <3
@Soreth (Cut to a tiny lemonade stand being run by a hungry sparrow...)
@Leucrotta Seriously, how do you always manage to be so damn NICE in the face of all that anxiety you struggle with? I always find myself fighting off the urge to lash out at the world, when mine is bad, and I'm ashamed of it. *hugs tight*
re: medical
@Thaminga Oh, yikes, good luck, speedy recovery, and please keep us posted!
re: out-of-context theater (special libertarian brony redditor edition)
@mmsword *chuckles* Excellent, excellent guess—but remarkably, not The Calbeck. :D
@troodon In other #KittenNews, Muffin snubbed an attempt to pet her today, and this has been me ever since...

mood(s), parallax (~)
it's amazing how fast a gloomy mood of mine can be dispelled by a new bit of parallax canon
shit did i accidentally take a correct life path somehow? 'cause the isolation and insecurity and nostalgia and worry are still agonizing on a daily basis, but... god, if we can just live long enough to finish this damn thing, my imaginary kids are gonna grow up beautiful
Big mood for today. Another classic from the Century Egg.
@anthracite Heh. Tell Trump he's their new Emperor For Life. Then put him on a SpaceX rocket aimed at the mid-Atlantic.

There's a swarm of insects here that's so big, it's becoming a major traffic hazard.

@LeDiva Oh. I was hoping he sent Janet for snacks.
"Janet. Bring us sugary treats."
Well, damn. Damn her free will! *pout*

I did not expect to begin my day by telling a Mitch McConnell intern to, and I quote, "keep on truckin', buddy." :D
He just sounded so... exhausted when he answered the phone. I told him as much and warned him he was about to get more of the same— about Mitchie's cynical treatment of 9/11 responders, of course— but it wasn't his fault.
I call a lot of these Congresscritters, and I humbly suggest you should too. And I've NEVER heard one of their operators who sounded so close to quitting out of despair. Let's see what we can do to help the poor guy along, shall we? ^__^

Unlike his boss, he's a real person, so be nice to _him_, okay? Say whatever the fuck you want about the Chaotic Evil alien slug god he works for, though.
dreams (++)
Pulled up HARD from a "you're back in high school and everybody hates and bullies you" dream — I remembered partway though, oh, riiight, you graduated ages ago, you're just a tourist here!
So I wandered off and found a beautiful spot by a water feature (that my real HS def did NOT have) and met a woman who was a stranger to me, but after we swapped stories, she absolutely insisted I'd met her years ago on a beach. We got naked and cuddled, totally platonic and innocent, with not a hint of mistrust or fear between us.
She reminded me of Plum the Merewif from Bravest Warriors— a charmingly untrustworthy flirt. She was almost certainly my brain recognizing that Peg was right next to me in real life and everything was kinda safe and OK. <3
She also shoved me through a portal into another dimension and laughed. Yup, that's Peg all right.
@LeDiva where's the caramel?
@troodon eff him >__<
