Wasted a bunch of time today going through the MAL catalog and updating my list. Final count: 536. There were also a bunch more that I didn't remember well enough to rate and/or that I dropped mid-watch. I didn't bother to add those so that's just the "completed" count. There's another couple dozen in my crunchy queue that I could put in the "plan to watch" category too. (And another handful that could be "on hold" due to them disappearing from crunchy in the recent crunchy/funi breakup.)
Now ask me how many books I've read. Actually, don't. I wouldn't even know where to start. I've got over 200 just on the bookshelves in my immediate vicinity as I type this, and even those are just the ones I felt were worthy enough and that I have the shelf space to keep.

Well, they didn't get the bill passed. Again. Bosses are saying the furloughs start "next month", which is now only a few days away. At this point it isn't D vs R, Congress vs Prez, or any of that. The Ds have said they're willing to pass one of the old R bills that they wouldn't pass before, but the Rs won't go for it now simply because the Ds suggest it. Spiteful b'tards. The Senate won't even allow a re-vote on one of their own bills! As for the Prez, he could simply not veto one of the R's old $200B spending bills if he wanted to end this. Even if he keeps vetoing, the Congress could override his veto if they wanted. Lots of ways to end this if anyone at the top was really interested in making it happen. This is just a bunch of entitled asshats - I refuse to call them "leaders" - playing games with the little peoples' lives and running the country into the ground in the process.
MAGA? Drain the swamp? HA! This is worse than it's ever been. Even Hillary would have been better. New meaning for an old acronym: MAGA => my lawyer got arrested.

Upgrading from Bionic Beaver to Cosmic Cuttlefish. Should be a simple update but if things go horribly awry and you don't hear from me for a while you'll know what happened.
