LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:
It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.
I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

Your annual reminder that the most revealing difference between Irish and Scottish Gaelic is definitely in the words for December: Mí na Nollag (Month of Christmas) in Ireland, and An Dubhlachd (the Blackness) in Scotland. So once again may I wish you all a lovely Blackness.

“Get out of my fucking seat.”
This is darkly hilarious (“You just don’t understand theatre”) but I am annoyed that the doctor who wrote it up for a journal used a quote from a different play and *fucked the quote up*. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
Experience: I was stabbed in the back with a real knife while performing Julius Caesar
Our student theatre group had the bright idea of using actual knives on stage for authenticity. The blade missed my aorta by about a centimetre

I would LOVE to read the UK equivalent of this post.
This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result.

How about Tony Shalhoub's character in Galaxy Quest? He loves Laliari when she looks like Missi Pyle but he stil loves her when she's an enormous hideous alien squidbeast.
Has this pairing ever been flipped? Where a man falls in love with a monster?

the low of waking up to terrible cricket news, the epic high of 'we scored HOW many runs???!'. You read the scoreboard and a story unfolds and all this happened while you slept, it's so strange and wonderful. The greatest game on earth honestly
