Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death

[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. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Oh and I forgot to mention this.

Tamara posted a link the other day to an article about how the striking writers for Days had been fired. At the meeting last night, they announced that, as part of the strike settlement, if you had a job and were replaced during the strike, you get to go back to your job when the strike is over. So those Days writers will not be losing their jobs.

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

Update! The Neg Comm and the BoD have unanimously recommended the deal.

Yippee!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yay for good news.

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

if you had a job and were replaced during the strike, you get to go back to your job when the strike is over

Whoo! Cool stuff indeed.

Glad to hear it sounds like things are working out on the strike front.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm not a regular over here, but I heard there was strike news. Thanks for sharing, Kristen. It's a relief to hear that things may have been worked out.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Apparently Life is returning in the fall.
