This is the article I send to people who don’t see the problem with rape jokes.

Ugh. Feeling tired and crappy. Want to stop working but shouldn’t. The deadline is coming really fast and I am really fucking behind. Taking tumblr + beer break and focusing on Golden Girls.

I don’t. :/ If he shot himself in the face it’s unlikely. Unless he did it Fight Club style.
I heard that he might still be alive. Sounds like it’s going to be awful no matter what. :(

There’s a weird schtick in season two of the Golden Girls where Rose gets in a bad situation and goes it an elaborate fantasy about how it’s going to unravel into her being forced to work for someone evil or wander the streets, running from the law.
And it’s really annoying.

I just got off the phone with Jen (she works at Burdick’s). Apparently the child was a nephew of one of her co-workers. :/
Aw, that’s terrible. :(
Do you know if the kid died?

Way less serious post- one of my coworkers, obsessed with smells, has flooded the office with some stinky perfume or air freshener and it makes me want to fucking vomit.

I work in a really small town in New Hampshire and it’s usually very peaceful and quiet. This summer we had a bank robbery and that was weird and exciting, but no one got hurt. This morning there was a shooting at the school around the corner. It was just one kid who apparently shot him or herself in the face, and I don’t know if they’re okay or not. It wasn’t a big...

You want a verdict? Fuck this whole goddamned system.

This case is so upsetting. The photos of this poor kid after the cops beat him up are disturbing. You don’t subdue a suspect with that kind of force.

drinking from a ‘dust bowl’ water bottle = breaking all new grounds in irony
I know! Our producers definitely thought they were being funny. Thankfully we drew the line there and didn’t get rain jackets, like we talked about.

Exactly, and it kills me when you can put in 10x more work than the next person but you keep trucking on while they take a break. Screw that -.-

Hahaha. I’ve tried the kitty leash thing with Mittens and she plops defiantly on the ground and refuses to move or even be dragged. She’s have to go in a bag. LOL My car would become a kitty palace with a litter box and food to support us both.
Ha ha :)
Daisy doesn’t like to leave the house. I...

Thats the worst.
Totally. I think I’m maybe a bit insensitive, but I always feel like, “hey, dude, if I can take it, you can take it.”

I always get an attitude when some of my coworkers go on vacation or “take a day”. I’m staunchly pro-vacation on a, like, human rights level, but I definitely give people the stink eye about it anyway. I don’t really know why. “Vacation” somehow implies to me that you’ve worked too hard or just need some time to decompress or any of those other work...

Sometimes I have survival dreams regarding my cat too. It’s worrisome.
It is! I’ve got this tiny little creature that would probably do okay on her own, but I <3 her and want her to travel with me. I think I would have to try her on a cat leash in post-apocalyptic world. And just hope that she...

Two things about dreams:
1) I often have post-apocalyptic dreams where I have to figure out what to do with my cat. Daisy is an indoor cat, so she’s never just out exploring when the post-apocalypse hits, and I can’t just set her free. So do I take her with me and leave her in a cage all the time and struggle to feed her, or see how she does on her own? It’s upsetting.
2) I had...
