@hystericempress Oh, that's fascinating. Sis, your friggin' identities are goin' full fractal and I'm so proud. :D

@DifficultToTame Bozhe moi!

@JulieSqveakaroo @Phorm @zx3 @Soreth I love you, babe, but if that fucking mouse on Today's Special could do it, you have no excuse. <;3

@Leucrotta This was pretty much my Ren Faire experience, yes.

@Phorm @JulieSqveakaroo @zx3 @Soreth (But that was an excellent comeback. <3 )

@Phorm @JulieSqveakaroo @zx3 @Soreth That COULD be fixed, but I don't think it would be an improvement...

Still, Pushy and Valis really COULD use some help at the factory... (cc: @anthracite)

So this is basically what happens to you if you let theory take over your brain: you start arguing that humans should go extinct because we can't secure consent to be conceived from babies.

Overly Online Young Queer Activists, please please please take note. Because you're already so fucking close to this point on the slope.

@JulieSqveakaroo @zx3 @Soreth @Phorm Reggies, too. And PBMax.

@zx3 @Soreth @Phorm Oh shit, is it too late to change my wish? Those were pretty good.

@Phorm I mean, every time I get a wish from you I am VERY tempted to do "have Nabisco bring back Heyday Bars." *shrug*

(Mom's doing great, I'm mentioning her in the past tense 'cause she's retired. :> )

Working on the training queue today. This is a part of my job that really makes me feel like I might have been a good teacher, and as the child of a beloved and respected public schoolteacher, a true educator who really cared about her craft, that makes me really proud.

Yay, Artemus was there to greet us when we got home from the cafe! She'd been AWOL at breakfast this morning and now that this is resolved, every short-term anxiety source is crossed off my watchlist. Missed you, little supervillain. <3

This is it.

The hateful one.

My arch-enemy.

This is the bastard in the mirror.

This is why I'm so messed up.

I'm sorry this is all I am.

Please, no replies. I'm serious. ESPECIALLY not positive ones. I don't want to think about this any further.

I don't even know why I needed to do this.

@Phorm o/` Insurrection, all we ever wanted
o/` Insurrection, make your bosses pay!
o/` Rich assholes, get the fuck against that wall

@Austin_Dern Grassy knoll. Ya gotta.

(Apologies to the Kipper Kids.)

I guess if any of the above has any RL connotations, it's just that I'm not much of a "joiner" in general. I have a long, long history of seeing a Big Uniform Social Group like that and needing to be very noisily right on the margins of it-- playing off of it but also the fact I'm NOT a real part of it.

(e.g. I took great pride in the fact my college pagan association considered me the "harbinger of Eris" because rituals I was invited to had a habit of going distastrously right and annoying the piss out of the uptight Gardnerian who ran them.)

What can I say. I'm a cat. Show me a fence and I'll try to sit on it and yowl. And no boot has ever hit me. ​
