Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that's a ridiculous justification.

PS: I did almost say "motherfucker" in a meeting just now, so maybe I should stick to network TV for the rest of the week.

Always Anti-fascist!

Josh Charles usually knows the right thing to say.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The porn GIF trollers have apparently a) shut down comments at gawker, at least temporarily b) expanded to kotaku and io9 and c) shut down image uploads at io9, at least temporarily.

Some people have way too much asshole in them.

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

Very sad news about Robin Williams. I hadn't had much use for his movies in a long time, but I used to love his stand-up, and there are several of his older films of his I'm very fond of. That and the occasional serious supporting role like in DEAD AGAIN or THE SECRET AGENT.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The standout for me is the guest appearance he did as a bereaved parent on Homicide.

Meh. Water in the basement. I'll deal with it tonight. I guess if the long term lots at BWI are flooded, shouldn't be surprised.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Josh Charles tweeting "Standing on my desk for you, always"

Yeah, that made me start sniffling.

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

Why is everyone so quiet today? I can't think of any conversation to start, but I'm bored. It's quiet here, it's quiet over at the gawker network if you want to converse (image uploading has been disabled, but apparently the bad guys have found a way around it).

I think I've found the Gustav Dore work I was looking for--Orlando Furioso. Problem is, I can't find a single source for a lot of them, so one at a time it is.

I said bored, right?

I just went to a going-away party, had some prosecco, and now I'm supposed to be finishing my self-evaluation. Good times.
