Or just be balls-to-the-wall arrogant, like when David Simon told Eric Holder he'd make more Wires if Holder stops the drug war first? (I still have the best showrunner stories, cause Simon is, like, Yahweh-certain he's right at all times. And, if this were still the Watergate era, a good reporter could prove you have stupid hair. But, you know, with media consolidation, and everything, you're probably doomed to wander the world inexpertly coiffed. Also, fuck Rupert Murdoch and the carpetbagger SOB that has Simon's old job at the Sun, too.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Has anyone seen Gravity Falls on the the Disney Channel. I heard Kristen Schaal of the Daily Show was going to be doing one of the voices, and I thought I would check it out. Really cute. I think many of the buffista spawn would like it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I've been enjoying Gravity Falls.

Emmy noms are out: [link]
I am not surprised Community did not get any noms but honestly, FOUR supporting actor nominations for Modern Family? I've never watched it but understand it is a pretty funny show. But seriously, four? They couldn't spare one for Danny Pudi or Nick Offerman from Park and Recs?

Awards, man, I so rarely understand them. That picture's reallly cute, though, esp. Shirley with the Hulk hands.
Yesterday my daily dose of Community brought me Football, Feminism, and You from the first season, including Troy's admission that he missed being the best at something. His character arc is so interesting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And the answer to that question comes with a hearty "of course!"

Shirley as Hulk is particularly apt. Girlfriend has some deep-seated anger issues, dude.
Football, Feminism, and You
One of my early favourites!
Jeff: I'm saying you are a football player. It's in your blood.
Troy: That's racist.
Jeff: Your soul.
Troy: THAT's racist.
Jeff: Your eyes?
Troy: That's gay
Jeff: That's homophobic.
Troy: That's black
Jeff: That's racist!
Troy: DAMN.
