We've got artists, scientists, scholars, pranksters, publishers, songwriters, and political activists.  We've subjected Discordia to scrutiny, torn it apart, and put it back together. We've written songs about it, we've got a stack of essays, and, to refer back to your quote above, we criticize the hell out of each other.

I just think they're spoiled sacks of shit because they went to great lengths and expense to have more children than the one they already have, and now they're crying because they didn't get the girl they wanted, they got twin boys and it cost the $30k and boohooo they live in a one-bedroom apartment (maybe shoulda thought of that before you decided to spend $30k on in vitro, eh douches?).

I also got a kick out of the part where they basically say their first born is a little shithead too.

That's what hit me most about this. They clearly don't have fond memories of parenting their existing child, so why the desire for more to begin with? Just to provide apparently annoying (but now wonderful?) offspring #1 with a sibling?  :?

Its all sacrifice, burden and baww for them, it was all a gift gone awry for their 1st born; its all their 1st born's fault, he made them do it, they had no responsability or say in the matter.

It seriously sounds like they did it for their son, because "they had siblings." Hell, my mom had my brother so I could have a sibling also, but he was WANTED. He was planned for and loved. These parents already stated they don't love these unborn twins. They make parenting sound like a burden, a terrible fucking burden, and are using other people's opinions of it BEING a burden to back up their claims.

My dad told me he was really worried right before I was born that he wouldn't be able to love me because he loved my brother so much and just didn't know how he could possibly have room for any more love. Of course the fact that he worried about it at all separates him out from these parents, so there's that.

I can only imagine that these two will resent the twins when they inevitably act as newborn babies do. Then they'll resent the older brother for "making" them have more kids. Hope the extended families have therapists on call.

He's in custody per ABC 5.

NECN also. All I can hear are people cheering, cars honking. Someone's flashing their apartment lights on and off.

I'm flipping between the scanner, NECN, and CNN.

He's wounded. Something about homeowners finding a trail of blood.

Once a mighty bastion of fabulousness, the Gay Recruitment Center is an eyesore in our city. We'd do something with it, but we can't agree on the drapes..

:lol:

Don't worry, I'm staying in and doubt the activity will head this way. The stay-inside order lifted just long enough for me to run over to my friend's place and pick up more greenery so, you know.. I'm set.

It's not him in the boat. Supposedly they have him surrounded though. Less than three miles from my apartment!

I just received word that Bostonians will not starve, as Dunkin Donuts remain open in the city.

See? You're saved. Even I know it's not a life or death situation until Dunkin closes.

But I need the T to get to Dunkin! Oh transportation woes.

I stand corrected....

Actually I stand corrected, and/or am a lazy fuck. I just consulted Google maps and it would appear that there are no less than six Dunkins within a mile of my apartment.

Sometimes they're in places you don't normally think of. The one nearest me is across from Tavern At The End Of The World.

Good call. Looks like there's one in St. E's, right down the street.

Hmmm.... There's a Dunks in walking distance.

I know that's stating the obvious since there's always a Dunks in walking distance.

But are they letting people leave their houses?  :horrormirth:

As far as I can tell, they're encouraging people to stay in "if you can" but it's not absolutely mandated.

My avatar remains the same as long as it continues to be accurate. Glad to see I've maintained my reign as Lesbian Queen!
