Amanda’s got some good reactions as well, and links to others, who aren’t so good. She points out that we’re still seeing articles and “studies” with a […]

Stumble home, unpack, pile up laundry, try and find a fourth frickin’ quarter… turn the house upside down to try and find a damn quarter, nothing, fuck it, these kicking pants are clean enough, leave `um to air out.
