All right, I do believe that I am conscious and able to do more than answer simple questions! Unfortunately, the first and most important thing I have to report is the cancellation of Pushing Daisies. WHAT THE FUCK, ABC. YOU SUCK. YOU SUCK SO HARDCORE. ;_; dammit. The only possible upside to this is that maybe Bryan Fuller's return to Heroes will bring the consistent quality back to that show.
D: So one of the absolute best serialized shows on TV has been canceled, and the serialized show I'm most personally invested in is being treated like a red-headed stepchild by its creator. Tim Kring needs to step back and pass the reins to someone who actually likes the characters that have been created, and can use them in interesting and fun ways. There is nothing wrong with exploring motivations and feelings, okay, it doesn't have to be all end-of-the-world all the time... (be careful, the second page has spoilers for the next volume.)
In better entertainment news, the curse of the redshirt lives on! I'm sure you were all worried about the redshirt-to-other death ratio in the movie... well, I was... and this is an explanation/tribute for those one-shot wonders on the security team. ♥ Rest in peace, Red Shirts #1-7.
As late in the day as I'm posting this, it's still the Transgender Day of Remembrance. For all the steps forward that are being made in and for the queer community, the transgender population is still marginalized and misunderstood-- and very subject to violence, most depressingly. Read the article, give the topic a few minutes' thought, okay?
More depressing midnight regulations by the shrub: relaxing endangered species regulations so businesses have a few months of rampant habitat-destroying before Obama reverses it. ...is it January yet? (rather, is it May yet? Please?)
On the hilarious end of the political news spectrum, Bush is the kid in class with cooties who smells funny. At the G20 summit, he TOTALLY got dissed when none of the world leaders would shake his hand. Everybody on the planet is going to be glad when he's gone.
THIS IS LOLARIOUS:
captainemo411 wrote The Brawny Man Rap-- subtitled "Paul Bunyan Is A Pussy." I CRACKED UP, read it!
Finally, in honor of my downloading the entirety of seasons 2, 3, and what's been shown of 4 of Supernatural, have an awesome gen crossover ficlet of Supernatural and the Dresden Files books. Brothers are defensive! ♥
And now, I am going to be pretentious with fanfiction. \o/
