niceytee has posted an update on the friend and neighbor who needed $1,200 to keep her apartment and custody of her child.

People working clean-up on the oil spill are falling ill. There's a lack of (and possibly a prohibition from BP, as I've seen in other news stories, on using) appropriate protective gear. I can get people to raise money or awareness on this or that to get it solved on the Internet. But I don't even know what to tell you to do here. This is forever though, however it turns out. And technology can't fix everything. As the linked article points out, did we forget the volcano already?

Just who buys those anonymous cell phones? Legislation may soon end the ability to buy pre-paid cellphones anonymously. Sure, it might make life hard for drug dealers, but it's going to do a number on reporters and folks dealing with domestic violence too.

Patty has kept asking about this, and now there's an answer. Yes, Gary Coleman will live on, on Avenue Q.

A one night concert of Brigadoon is happening in New York. Tickets are ridiculously expensive as it's a benefit, but I remain tempted. It and Camelot are my two most favorite Broadway shows.

There are Doctor Who controversies afoot. I know what they are and have nothing to say because I am six episodes behind you. This is unintentional but kinda nice, because I don't have to spend time telling people they are wrong or talking about how much I hate being in a TV fandom while it's happening. I do, however, need to catch up, lest anything happening this season be relevant to a chapter proposal I'm working on.

Last night, more Angel. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. Also, what did Cordelia do to her hair? Also, also, I still maintain the thing about RTD being a Wesley/Angel shipper and looking at the current state of that clusterfuck, I'm currently seeing Torchwood and Jack/Ianto through the lens of "everything goes to hell, what does it look like if it's fixable?" Also, Patty says something is coming soon that will make me flip out at how obvious it is that RTD stole it, and she doesn't even know TW that well since she doesn't watch it. I can't possible figure out what the hell it could be and you all are not allowed to tell me.

Time to make picnic food now.

HAHA! if you're in the part of angel i think you're in, then THIS is the thing i've been waiting for you to get to! HURRY UP! you are SO going to flip

It's driving me crazy because there aren't that many things Patty knows about TW.

So the options are limited. Does Wesley have a secret robot girlfriend in the basement? Is there timetraveling? Does Angel bring him back to life with a kiss? Does he wind up Dead Like Owen? Are there faeries? That's really all I've got.

you are FREEZING! srsly, just get to the end of the season as quick as you can!

although the faeries would've worked pretty well on angel, i think
