Totally unrelated, but I like that Drive has made me alter my lurking schedule from "infrequent" to "highly frequent", for fear of being left behind.
Zoe: We're getting him back. Jayne: What are we gonna do, clone him?

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Best spoiler ever, Kat! Congratulations to you and lori!
I read the whitefont even though I felt I shouldn't, and found myself oddly unsquicked. Apparently gestating, bearing and caring for a baby has totally wrecked my squick sensors.
But, eeeeeee! One of each! So awesome!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh thank god it's not just me. Not interested, certainly, but not full-body-shudder squicked.

Matched set - neat!
Don't need to read the whitefont; know what it's talking about, and ew. I oh, so accidentally saw part of a segment on a show about it once, and I still have a visual I'd really like to not have.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I have a strong visual memory of looking at Franny's after she was born. It was lying on steel tray, just lying there.

Now that doesn't make me go ew. Or, I don't think it would, never having been in that situation. But, that's a place where I'd expect to see it.
Don't highlight this unless you want to share the visual of which I wrote in my last post:
On top of a pizza crust, on the other hand... ack. Placenta pizza. Being shared among a group of, I'm gonna say very close, friends. Seriously?
I'm not all that sensitive really, but that put me off of my feed for a while.

Well, I'm sensitive. So I'm just going to avoid all that whitefont, and talk about something else. Picture me in the corner, both hands over my ears, mumbling to myself.
More promo thoughts:
I'm surprised Melanie's Wendy Patrakas isn't bugging me yet (I know, based on all of 30 seconds). I found the "ginormous misunderstanding" line cute, despite it reminding me somewhat of early Fred. Who I kinda couldn't stand. Although I have liked Amy in non-Fred roles.

Jen, that's so absurd it made me laugh.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
And here I thought 'ffista moms would be big old placenta eaters. I should ask my home-schooling, home-birthing, two-year-old-nursing, non-circumcizing sister if she ate it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
