I've been really grappling with this concept lately, that you and I are different and that's okay. I've always believed firmly in that, and in fact that this difference is one of the many gorgeous colors on the tapestry of humanity. But as of late, with politics being as they are, I've really been wondering if you can

I'm not sure that it's that cut and dry. That may be what the term means to you and your circle, but to me and mine it means that we don't know if there is a deity, that we can't know. I'm not indifferent by any stretch of the imagination, I'm deeply spiritual. I just don't think it's possible to know if there is a

I'm in. For about two seconds I considered killing my productivity for the afternoon and photoshoping a Hiddleston version of 'Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich' but my conscience got the better of me. :)

I dug it the first time I saw it!

Cats are so marvelous, I can't imagine my life without cats!

I completely agree with you on all points, but there are cats that are impossible to keep inside. At that point it becomes a loss/benefit analysis. I have a cat that would knock me over to get outside and was deeply depressed until we relented. We keep the other two inside, but our big orange boy must heed the call of

You rec'd one of my comments so I'd just wandered by to say how much I dig your user name, but your story is heartbreaking! I'm so sorry that you lost your kitty like that and experienced the trauma of seeing her suffer. I have three furry purries and that's just devastating. I'm glad your next little girl is happy

That would be so very great. Especially if they managed to find a plausible way for all the prepared folks to go down hard.

Sign me up! I love meta storytelling.

Because of my love of Farscape, I'll give Rockne O'Bannon a lot of leeway. I think it will turn into something trully splendid. I already love it.

It's really frustrating for me as someone who detests "shoot stuff" games. I haven't checked it out simply because everything I've seen is along that line. Defiance was my favorite show of 2013, so I wish I wanted to play.

Patriarchy.

My school had the Flying IUD:

She's going to be huuuuuuuuuge. I have a half Maine Coon and she looks like an ottoman when she curls up. She covers my husband's entire torso. Maine Coons are the best.

Jeepers, I think B was making a joke. No need to call names.

Oh lord, if only the Internet had been what it is when I was dating. I once had a male friend give me a 'letter' that was 10 pages of crazy that he'd ripped out of his journal. It was so horribly misspelled and full of very ... questionable grammar choices that I had no choice but to correct it with a Big Red Pen and

Oh dear. Well I suppose this is what one gets for being hyperbolic.

The lady who was disturbed was eating by the end but she was crying and obviously miserable. She saw the end coming and was in a state of panic. I would have much preferred her to stand up from the table and join the waiters. There are always good people amongst the mindless that consume without thinking.

I totally didn't get what their problem was with what you said. It was reasonable and made sense to me! I think they were just being ornery.

Heh, but they'll totally put dog poop in their mouths if they find it in the back yard. Toddlers put everything in their mouths.
