@JulieSqveakaroo How are y'all both feeling, darlin'?

@balinares *cackle*

Also this reminds me that if you haven't seen any What We Do In The Shadows, I HIGHLY recommend it, especially the character of Colin Robinson the energy vampire... (You, friend, are emphatically the opposite of an energy vampire, but I think you'd still appreciate the show's sense of humor as well as Colin's character arc...)

@balinares You're dealing with an expert here. I would no sooner fall for blatant bait like that than I would fall for updog.

@balinares "This season, on the Castratos..."

Not a single fucking person at work got the Sopranos reference in my last example case. ;__;

(I made a reference to "Aprile Memorial Park" in "Pine Barrens, NJ." I even said "Streetview shows a forest on a hill, overlooking a little river, with pine cones all around." NOTHING. NOT EVEN FROM THE AMERICAN TEAM. I am fucking heartbroken. :> )

(it's especially a pity 'cause the Sadistic Mika band is pretty good, in a Steely Dannish kinda way. Pretty sure I heard a couple of μmaj chords in that first number.)

How racist was the BBC the year I was born?

Racist enough to retitle "The Old Grey Whistle Test" when they had a Japanese band perform.

You'll see what I mean. It's kinda hard to miss.

@Leucrotta We sure as fuck hate them down here in NOLA. Lots of damage to local housing opportunities as investors gobble up "party" houses.

@Leucrotta Not one of those fuckers is going to have a single piece of creative output to their name as long as they live.

1) I really gotta actually finish watching S1 instead of just watching the part where Jessica snaps Kilgrave's neck over and over again.

2) Man, this show does a lot of collateral damage to my kinks. I have thoughts on that-- like how come you never always see powers like Kilgrave's on sociopaths and not someone with the personality of, say, Squirrel Girl.

3) KEVIN?! They changed his name from Zebediah to KEVIN!? 🤦‍♀️​

In related news, we're pretty sure one of the cats has been leaving us little yellow flower buds on the back steps as a daily present/trophy. <3 There aren't any such flowers within natural wind-blowing distance of the door, and they keep ending up in more or less the same place.

Thanks, little guys, every bit helps! 😻​ (Peg is using one of them to trim her hat. <3 No, no, the flowers, not the cats!)

ME: "Hey, higher mammals? We humans aren't doing so good here and we hate to ask, but we really need y'all to get ready to take ov--"

CATS: "Yeah, no, we know. Workin' on it."

I heard a joke this morning about trickle-down economics, but 99% of you would never get it...

@xinjinmeng "Do you expect me to run, General Woundwort?"

@hystericempress Haha, and you're still friends with this ADHD basket case WHY exactly? :D <3

LRB: Dammit, now I REALLY want to see a "rebooted" Watership Down but it's a stylish 1960s spy comedy with ruthless anthro bunnies...

@hystericempress I'm still really pissed off at how they treated Jacob Tobia (Double Trouble on She-Ra) for saying "dyke" in a blatantly non-derogatory and friendly context. And for daring to portray a non-binary character that is not a 100% Lawful Good paragon of decency. (That includes some people who can read this, and... yeah, if you feel a little called out, that's just fine and I still love you).
