I'm telling myself this is the bit where it looks as if all is lost but the heroes persevere.
I love the idea of those wish bracelets where you make a wish as you tie them around your wrist & when the thread breaks you get your wish, but I feel that in order for it to work I'd have to purchase one from a patchouli-smelling young woman with cool tats at a craft fair instead of Online.

Iron deficiency is my body's Ronald Reagan, in that every time I look up a weird symptom it is traceable to that.
I do not want advice unless you have a spell for getting doctors to take you seriously!
I also do not want anyone going "Oh, my friend thought she had that but she had Blood Scorpions"

The Elizabeth Bru-n-gs & Leah L-br-sco S-rg-ants are, like, some people will die of measles or diseases that could have been prevented with mRNA vaccines, but on the other hand some people are dying because they couldn't get an abortion, so who can say if this is good or not?

The thing about homeownership is maybe a 60-70-year period in which you could earn enough at your job to save up & purchase property while having a dog-level understanding of how the world works (want treat, bark at stranger, obey Master, make mess) was the fluke & we're reverting to normality.

Why am I thinking of that H. P. Lovecraft story where the narrator goes to his ancestral home & discovers there was a cannibal cult there & it takes over his mind & the last page of his account goes from English to Middle English to Latin to Gaelic to gibberish?

It's like a guy making a joke about having sex with you.
I kinda wonder, given everything else we know about Hasan, if his "shoot you in the head" comment is projection on his part.
Oh boy, did Hasan just fly into an anti-Democrat rage after being criticized by two trans people? You'd think he'd be more mature than this, but...

Good news:
1. You can cook red lentils in the rice cooker! I added the last drops of wine & the remnant of the boursin that was too dry to be fun to eat & those were *smooth*.
2. Other people onhere are speculating about Dooku being Obi-Wan's father (& Anakin being a little accident of Qui-Gon's.)

I lit a candle in hopes it would warm the room up a bit because I don't want to turn the heat on &...I have become the old joke about what skinflints Yankees are.

There was a detective series I really liked (I pre-ordered each new book, I gave copies as presents) & the author started a new series about the sister of one of the sleuths, & in the afterword she said there was no good side or evil side in WWII & I don't want to read another word the author wrote.

A) I am still upset about Lucy Harrison's father murdering her & getting away with it
B) I told my Mom about it & she said "That's why, when the other person has all the power, you just quietly agree with them until you can get away".
How is "your father might murder you" a reasonable expectation?
