Sucker Punch Review
Sucker Punch was….awful.
Although I do believe I have found the formula they used to create the movie.
Sexy dancing+ Prostitution+ Guns+ Ninjas+ Hatred of Nazis+ Bioshock gritty hopeless realism+ Dragon Age-esque Hurlock monsters, Dragons, and knights+ Objectifying women+ Rape Culture = Sucker Punch.
LOL Vet
The lady at the vet insisted I keep the cats apart for the first 24 hours after Henrik’s surgery.
I told her it wasn’t happening. Why? Because the 8 hours Henrik was gone, Henley acted like her whole world had ended. When I brought him back and he immediately hid under the couch, Henley stuffed her head under it to be near him, even though she HATES going under the couch.
When he finally came out and lay on the sofa, Henley curled up to him and groomed his face carefully.
My cats love each other. And I really don’t care if I pissed off the vet tech, because this was also immediately after she told me that Henrik “still needed some socializing.” No, he doesn’t. He was a feral cat. He loves me, and he loves Henley, and he sometimes tolerates other people. He is afraid of the pet carrier and the car. Of course he wasn’t nice to you in your office. I told you that he wouldn’t be.
I need a new vet. Hopefully we won’t have to go back between now and Texas.
After 6-Year Absence, New Sailor Moon Works Coming - ABC News →
abcnews.go.com
Sailor Moon is setting sail for the U.S. after a six-year absence in print.
Kodansha USA Publishing LLC said Friday that it will release new deluxe editions centering on the iconic manga character that helped cement the Japanese comic art form with American readers in the late 1990s.
Naoko Takeuchi’s “Sailor Moon” will relaunch in September under the Kodansha Comics imprint. It will be accompanied by a two-volume prequel series titled “Codename: Sailor V,” the first time it will be in print in the U.S. In it, teenager Minako Aino will fight as Sailor V against the Dark Agency before discovering Sailor Moon.
The “Sailor Moon” comic will be released every two months starting in September and feature new cover art, retouched interior art, new dialogue and bonus material never before published in the U.S. The books will be distributed by Random House Publisher Services.
“I’m very excited to reintroduce Ms. Takeuchi’s work to her American fans,” said Yoshio Irie, president and CEO of Kodansha USA Publishing in a statement.
“As we continue to build the Kodansha Comics manga list, a title like ‘Sailor Moon’ is the jewel in our crown. As the former chief editor of the work in Japan, I’m especially thrilled to finally release the prequel … to the many fans who have been asking for it at long last.”
Sailor Moon proved a popular draw with comic fans, including female readers. The character also grabbed a foothold in American pop culture, with references in songs and books. In Japan, the character is a juggernaut, having been featured in animated films, live-action musicals and a live-action television show.
Dreams do come true /tears
I had a dream that one day this great nation would rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all Sailor Moons need to be rereleased in North America.”
I AM BUYING ALL OF THIS.
Guiltiest Dog Ever

It’s the harmonica and the narrator’s Garrison Keillor-type voice that really punches the guilt.
Reblog if at some point you've tried to see if you had super powers.
All the time.
Rage
To my ex-boyfriend, who just posted this on FB:
“God gave me strength to lose these 40 lbs” blah blah blah.
No.
You stupid fucking idiot.
God didn’t give you the strength to lose weight.
I think if there was a God he’d be a little more preoccupied right now.
How about you stand up for yourself and stop being a religious doormat and declare that you worked your ass off for three months and lost 40 lbs.
Also, you’re gay. Praying a lot isn’t going to change that.

Oh the cats
As you probably already know, I have two cats.
Henley is almost 2 years old, and only 5.7 lbs.
Henrik is almost 6 months old, and 6.8 lbs.
Each cat has their own bowl. Henley has a shallow metal dish, and Henrik has a deeper dish. Henley will not eat out of the deeper dish at all, and most of the time Henrik eats exclusively out of it.
I feed my cats a blend of three different types of cat food.
Today I got up and Henrik’s bowl was half empty.
And Henley?
Henley had, near as I can tell, meticulously picked out all of the “indoor” formula pieces (which are bigger and lighter than the others) and left the rest.
I’m sick of the term “brown noser.”
If you’re the kid in the class that knows the answers and no one else is speaking up, and so you volunteer the information, you’re a “brown noser.”
Guess what?
I used to volunteer the answers because just sitting in a class where no one is speaking is the WORST thing to me. I don’t have time for this bullshit. I pay good money to be in this seat, learning this crap.
So if I know the answer, I’m going to say it.
And if you know the answer, why don’t YOU say it.
Otherwise, when I hear you calling me a brown noser, I’ll know what you really mean…
“I hate how smart that girl is.”
when I die, who will tell my internet friends?
Sadly, I have thought of this MANY times…”they’ll have no way of knowing!”
This has come up when I’ve ruminated on suicide.
It’s not just me? Oh, good. Well, maybe not so good.
The “SO NOW I’M DEAD” text file on my backup hard drive features a list of sites and passwords. But it’s also occurred to me that even if Erin or Ari or someone informs people, everyone will think it’s an attention whore hoax. Not sure how to get around that one.
I also have a word document entitled “MY LIVING WILL” that distributes my stuff and my passwords. I assume that the amount of facebook and twitter mourning will suffice.
