like, a bad decision to be sure, but a slightly different kind of bad decision.

I guess, but I don't think that makes it "the good ending" so much as with the other one someone went overboard in trying to be explicit that it isn't good, either.

like he's getting it from Vance, but very few people were actively reading Vance by that time. There are other usages of it in other contexts (usually to be specifically gender neutral, Tiptree eg), but people using Ser over Ser for knights specifically-- usually maintains the gender distinction too

Martin didn't originate it, no, but usage spiked following him doing it there, and 2006-2007 when the game would have been being relocalized was the big peak in it being the hot set of books everyone (at least, everyone the big publishers were willing to give a marketing budge to) was cribbing from

"well what are the Democrats supposed to do" I don't know! They're supposed to know! I'm not the one who sought and obtained a political position that would require me to know what to do when the ruling party attempts to install the President as a dictator!

being online is amazing you can say "our democratically elected officials should be doing something and/or should have done something previously to prevent the current political climate from developing to this point" and someone will argue with you

Canada, too. Not that I was planning on going there any time soon in the first place, but...

Had a visit from the chimken inspector this evening.
#EverybodyLovesMousecow

Mousecow ALMOST close enough to taste a piece of chimken held out for her, but not quite. Any moment now though, any moment now.

Raaaaaaaaaaaar!

Mousecow has a little chunk of chimken on the top of her tongue, but she can still see chimken held out in front of her and I think it's disconnected her little brain.

*gomph*
Chimken in mouth, brain no worky nao.

Won't be the first time. Sadly unlikely to be the last.

yeah, hogs are like, the hippopotamus of North America

(and for any passersby who don't know, hippopotami are the actual deadliest animal in Africa and they will fuck you up)

you hate to hand it to 30-50 feral hogs guy, but...

here is the current tactical map of where feral swine populations have consolidated

the major worry is if the Canadian superhogs end up making their way down south and breeding with the American hogs
