I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

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!

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

nice to see you in these parts, Tim. i take it you're procrastinating...or maybe you want to talk crafts.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

He should talk towers and share pictures!

This is what I get for skipping through threads. I was just reading the Buffy and Angel thread where they were discussing the new Buffy tarot card design.

I was thinking, "wow, it's more popular than I thought it would be."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Awww, Tim took the bullet for Joss on the "Billy" episode getting a sound feminist thumping hereabouts.

Note to Joss: Remember that Women's Studies minor you had in college? Dig out your old textbooks and revisit them before you do the Dollhouse thing. Also, we're still intrigued by the possibility that you are intentionally referencing both Ibsen and Roger Corman with the title "Dollhouse."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

So there. Wah.

Snerk.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Dig out your old textbooks and revisit them before you do the Dollhouse thing.

Or, you know, ask us. Plenty of feminist cred on the b.org. (eta: Err, this b.org. Probably not too much feminism with the other borg, what with the queen and the androgyny and the, you know, oppression.)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Awww, Tim took the bullet for Joss on the "Billy" episode getting a sound feminist thumping hereabouts.

That's how I remember it, hence my comment. Feels sheepish

I did like the episode in general (especially Shining!Wesley and Fred Rube Goldberging her way out of trouble), but I remember there were...issues.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Do you know, I saw that ep once (Billy), didn't like it, and promptly forgot everything about it except Wesley fucking up with Fred. I haven't seen it again so I had to go back and refresh my memory.

I liked it better when I had forgotten about it!

Awww, Tim took the bullet for Joss on the "Billy" episode getting a sound feminist thumping hereabouts.

If I remember right, on the DVD commentary that line is immediately followed by Tim & Jeff Bell exclaiming, "Joss wrote that line! So... take it up with him."

They also go into some of Billy's backstory, and the script mechanics. It's a good commentary.
