I’d never heard that bit about her and assange. That is...just wild. Imagine being twenty years old, on a global stage with one of the most infamous men of our time. I have no clue what I would have done in her shoes. At age 20 I was still grappling with the loss of childhood innocence.

I would watch the shit out of that show. All eight seasons and a movie.

People work for room and board already. I have done it. Better than homelessness and hunger. :P tbh, I didn’t feel taken advantage of. My employer and I both needed help and couldn’t afford it.

I was rewatching Weeds yesterday and boom, surprise Carrie Fisher cameo. Totally forgot she was in that. She was as usual captivating and hilarious. I didn’t appreciate her enough back then :(

My BiL works there. I can’t reach him at the moment. Minor panic.

I used to live in Gloucester. I referred to this sort of thing as a Gloucesterfuck back then.

Today I learned I am a genius.
