I’m so sorry! She looks so sweet!

I think Patricia had suspicions but wasn’t going to accuse anyone of anything just in case she’s the one with the dirty mind. 

I seriously worry about how many people are driving while in that fuzzy need-to-eat stage. 

The Big Short is kind of a heist movie, sort of? It just has to work harder to explain how the heist works. Either that or it’s about conning the con artist except it’s not a con. 

This will be very interesting to watch - I’ve just finaly realized that I’m allergic to two of the most common sunscreen ingredients* which has seriously limited what I’ll buy.  

Ground glass?

I’ve missed it SO MUCH. And it just so happens I bought a bunch of bags of dried chilis a couple weeks ago intending to make a chili paste and then I forgot and now I have a better plan!

And risk permanent disability!

It’s what he would have wanted... no question. 

It’s not as much about the medical choices so much as everything around them: the default now is to save the mother instead of the child and maybe that’s not what a woman wants. It’s about who gets to be in what room when, it’s an explicit reminder about certain drug allergies/sensitivities, it’s spelling out if you…

I was really suprised by where his email ended up going - to me letting go of the “we all have to be the same” thing means less edgelording and more communing. But, then again, I’m a lady and we’re not only allowed to be like that we’re pretty much required to.

Particularly when certain mental illnesses are very, very prone to causing over-exercising and under-eating.

Used to domesticate the wolf! All we had to do was throw the stick and history changed.

Thank you! That sort of book is right up my alley. 

I love those weird, broad “The History of Spoons” books but it seems the standards for what gets printed isn’t quite as strict as it was at the beginning. Some of the more recent ones are more like very long Cracked articles than serious non-fiction.

That picture up top does feel a little “wolves corner a baby elk”. 

This feels so Sacramento - when it’s an individual the Powers That Be know and care about there’s understanding but nothing gets done about structural injustice. 

I kind of wish they’d use a different picture of him. I know it’s the one that is most associated with him, but he’s done so much more than just this one moment.
