Welp, it was in the 90s day.
We are predicted to get a foot of snow tomorrow and temps n the 20s!
My plants!!!!!
I am going to do what I can to protect them, we will see, it will be an epic battle to save plants.
Buckets! The big 5 gallon kind if you can find them, or like -- whatever size buckets you have in the Euro-zone. Just put them right over them to try and help protect them from wind and frost.
This, right here, has been my whole damn week.
Gender-neutral drama queens making me stop my process and take care of their issues right this very second has messed me all up.

I don't know where you live, but this is a "find someone to present this bullshit to a school board" moment.

And now I have five jobs, and I couldn’t be happier.
In case anyone wonders why I’m not around much no more.
Ok. That's it. I'm cutting you off. Five is your limit.
Rough couple of days for celebs we love.
That’s only for special occasions. They’re awfully fatty.
That sounds yummy! Next time you make it take pictures. I wanna see this magic when it comes out.
This is what @reimesu and I were talking about yesterday.
Bad day for his lawyers. Good day for everyone else.
Watching Evil with @Devrex and man, I gotta say, this last episode was so. Effin'. Good.
Season finale is next and it's got enough tension built up and I'm like, actively bouncing in my seat.
If you aren't watching this series you should be.

This one hurts. Olivia Newton-John
Holy crap.
Logan would not want you to be sad. He would want you to be happy and remember him fondly, and to use what you taught each other to live better lives. If helping a baby that needs a new home does that, I think he would be happy for you. Show the baby as much love as he knew.
@Bellecourt said in Movie / TV / Streaming Peeves or Whatever:
So... My problem is that it literally conflicts with a point explicitly laid out in the books. I am pretty sure you are either remembering it wrong or sourcing it from a book after the first three in the series, or the Vampire Armand, or Pandora, all of which I have read and in none of which there are vampires fucking.
Well, I suppose I beg to differ on this. I was referencing book 4 of the Vampire Chronicles, but I know for a solid fact that there is vampire sex in Pandora.
He covered me and kissed my cheek. “Drink from me,” he said, “drink until the pain goes away. It’s only the body dying, drink Pandora, you are immortal.“
“Fill me, take me,” I said. I reached down between his legs.
“It doesn’t matter now.”
But it was hard, this organ I sought, the organ forever lost to the god Osiris. I guided it, hard and cold as it was, into my body. Then I drank and drank, and when I felt his teeth again on my neck, when he began to draw from me the new mixture that filled my veins, it was sweet suckling, and I knew him and loved him and knew all his secrets in one flash which meant nothing. He was right. The lower organs meant nothing. He fed on me. I fed on him. This was our marriage.
They don't think sex is super awesome compared to drinking blood but they absolutely can and do have sex. Marius and Armand have sex with a woman, Louis compares sex to drinking blood in interview and finds it lacking, I'm sure there are a handful of others that I'm just forgetting.
I think you're being overly purist about a thing that isn't as pure as you're remembering it to be.
That is actually pretty fascinating and now I am down a rabbit hole.
