right, so

So I think a methlab has just been discovered in my neighborhood. It's the only possible explanation I have for firetrucks 'round the block, the hazmat team, a lot of ambulances, soe cop cars, a bunch of worried looking fireman wh've roped a building off and no discernable action. I mean, what else would it be? An illegal dry-cleaning operation?

I'm fairly certain it's far enough away that if it blows up it won't do anything more than rattle my windows.

But hey!

Even when you're nobody (read: even when you're me), this is the sort of shit you have to think about all the time.

One thing it didn't cover, and I think is a common experience of gay women in entertainment, is that the beauty standard gets even higher. Androgyny that is sexy or provocative for a straight actress becomes an "ugly lesbian" concern. You have to be utterly, conventionally glamorous and completely non-threatening all the time. You don't get "quirky" wiggle room.
