I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Linkee-poo and if we poison our children with hatred then the hard life is all that they will know

Good news, people, "The BBC shall be commissioning 8 writers to write an original series or serial script for BBC One, BBC Two or BBC Three Online." Bad news, people, "To apply you must have at least one production credit (a drama, at least 30 mins in duration) to your name." (Grokked from Mur Lafferty)

How to properly punctuate in and around parenthesis. I got to the Future Semiconditionally Modified Subinverted Plagal Past Subjunctive Intentional before giving up. (Grokked from Dan)

The Monterey Bay Aquarium sea nettle tank, live and in HD. Don't say I never got you anything. (Grokked from Chuck Wendig)

"The drug company that makes the EpiPen says it isn't nearly as profitable as many people assume it is… At least that's the message Mylan NV CEO Heather Bresch will try to deliver to members of Congress today." Especially when you increase the CEO's pay like Mylan did. That really sucks up the cash flow. "A new government report says climate change will likely pose a significant national security challenge for the U.S. over the next two decades." We're boned.

"Corey Lewandowski is not out at CNN, the network said Wednesday, despite a report that he'd been suspended over campaign finance filings that show he remained on Donald Trump's campaign payroll beyond his severance package." Cripes, CNN, what does he have to do for you to say he's off the team, give the Donald felacio on camera? You have a paid surrogate on your payroll as an analyst. Those two things are in direct conflict.

Joss Whedon weighs in on the election. And here we'll start our annual, get registered to vote and then go out and vote (or get an absentee ballot and stay in and vote, just follow all the instructions). And I recommend the video on the Save-the-Day website (although wear headphones, language NSFW or sensitive grandmothers). (Grokked from John)

I'm sure it's just because Lester Holt is a journalist, not because he's black that the Trumpster thinks, "they're all Democrats" (even though Lester Holt has been a registered Republican in NY since 2003). I'm sure this isn't about seeing boogymen wherever you look. I'm sure this isn't about his persecution complex, or a part of the attempt to lower the bar so far that as long as he doesn't fall on his face tripping over his shoelaces or noticeably droll on TV that he can declare it a win.

Tweet of my heart: @TheRachelFisher Sorry your feelings got hurt when I called you out on your protest vote, I was thinking about the people who might get put into camps (Grokked from Mur Lafferty)
