poetry readings

WTF?

Compassionately intolerant

I should have qualified that...the reading of fan generated poetry. I actually found it pretty cringe worthy, but he was game, so yeah...big with the love of the fan love.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ron Moore on what happened to Starbuck at the end of the BSG finale:

She is what you want to think of her. It was left deliberately nebulous and vague. And I think she was a representative of an entity that didn't like to be called God, but everybody else talked about it in godlike terms. If you want to call her an angel, you could say that. She went through a resurrection story that was very Christlike. And you know, what are the implications of that? I felt, as I went into the finale, that the more I defined exactly what she was, the less interesting she became. And so I just made a choice to go out on a more ambiguous note, and to let people argue about it perpetually.

Totally doesn't make me like the finale one whit better.

Maybe he should have tried writing her as a more interesting character before the finale, I might buy it. But, no. It's bullshit.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

So, basically, she was a representative of a story that didn't like to be called an asspull?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Finally got around to watching the most recent Warehouse 13.

The Philo T Farnsworth house is just up the road from me. This amuses me to no end.

thanks for the reminder, DebetEsse! I just watched it, too. I like the hardware store kid and I see him as a potential boyfriend for Claudia, but, are we to infer the same from the tension between what-his-face and the Vet?

Also, the sketch at the end was drawn by Leena, and the significance to Mrs. Frederick is still a mystery, as are most things with her. And did the Mark Shepard character call her by a first name? Irene?
