That's not good.
I mean, it could be fine, except the last time I saw this word in this context, it had to do with why Chaz had issues with his t-shirt twisting around his neck while he slept.

Yikes, that doesn't sound good, especially with that gold star showing up! I'm already worried. . . .

Wow. Is it really already 3x07? How did that happen?
So. "Ligature." What do you anticipate we mean by that?

Besides pain and suffering for Chaz? |

Ligatures are the things that hold reeds on clarinet and saxophone mouthpieces. I think somebody takes up a musical instrument. I say this as I plop myself down underneath the Not Worrying At All, No Really, Not Even A Little Bit Bench.

Also a form of musical notation, something used to close of a vein or artery, part of orthodontic braces, or the combination of two or more characters in fonts. Oh, and yes, strangulation using a flexible tool of some tight. Anyone want to bet on 'all of the above'? |

After seeing the extent of non-uniform portrayals of Our Team in "Out of Uniform", along with pretty much all the expected meanings, I have faith in the PTB when it comes to tricksiness. (And ECR, but I had that already.) |

Ligature airs the first Sunday in February. There will be an extra-long pause before it: ie, no content the next two Sundays, because the weekend count came out odd and I'm not very good at math. *g*

Hey, first Sunday is first Sunday, no matter how many Sundays intervene, right? And we are so worth waiting for.  |

And we are so worth waiting for. Of course you are, we love having extra time to huddle in breathless anticipation under the FRTFO Bench... On the downside, it does give you more time to plot how to play with our minds  |

No, no. That's not a bug, it's a feature.  |

I left my mind out for you to play with, in case you want it when I'm asleep or something.
It's just the other side of the Well-Armored Bench, in a box marked "Mined".
Help yourselves. Please.

It's never that easy. But your optimism is adorable.
