...fuck Morrissey. This should have always been Johnny Marr and Richard Butler.

RE: Why We Don't Make New Friends Anymore (Or Creepers Do Creepy Things)
I've met maybe five people RL from MU...
One happened to also work at a Tower Records so I got to make all my tracking calls with him and not deal with the jackass buyer, and we got fairly close once I moved back to the Midwest from Hollywood. He had another friend that we gamed with, and I met her, too, and I can't remember who she is on here and I apologize (@krmbm, maybe?)
Two were a married couple and we eventually all lived in the same city and would hang out together; we drifted apart once he got a faculty position in another state.
The last was another player from Metro; he actually came to Philadelphia from Baltimore to hang out with me when a friend of mine was playing his first-ever US gig there like nine year ago or so. Not a single bit of weirdness or yuck going on there; we even shared a room without even a hint of impropriety or sleaze. Tried to get him to come back and meet me there again last month when another friend headlined the Dracula's Ball but he wasn't able to.
Either I put out a great 'don't fuck with me' vibe in person, or I've been fortunate that the people I've extended myself to all had some kind of facility with social skills.

RE: RL Anger
Are people actively searching for the family? Can they be housed with any church members in the meantime or do you have any partner churches where they can get sanctuary?

RE: RL Anger
I also recommend getting the ACLU involved, as well as Tweeting at everyone from MSNBC to NPR to the Guardian to goddamn presidential candidates. Immigration attorneys.

RE: The Song Game
Worth a listen, as it's quite the departure from their usual material.

For some reason I'm not getting these posts when I refresh...

RE: Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff
Yeah...gluten free/keto devotees have no answer for when I respond with 'I have no thyroid and therefore cannot NOT eat carbohydrates'. Nor did the Lamaze woman when I asked her how controlled panting was going to help deal with my hypermobile hips and joints better than an epidural.
You know what helps my fibro? Weed. Kratom. Actual opioids when and if I ever obtain them.

RE: Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff
I'm there with you, combined with the unfortunate biological effects of being a Gen X woman, if you get my drift. I also know the guilts from not RPing 'enough'. There's literally zero reason we should have them, since it's a HOBBY and not our fucking job(s). Other peoples' happiness are not our responsibility. It is more than okay if you don't RP.
