Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I haven't watched Cowboy Bebop but I will follow John Cho pretty much anywhere

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I watched the first 4, but have the second 4 still sitting on my DVR. I found it basically depressing, but good, I guess.

It's possible that I have a bias in favor of depressing TV.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The usuals are kicking up a fuss because the Bebop woman character is dressed and isn't primarily and front and back cleavage, the way anime women are "supposed to be." They can all die, whatever way they think best.

Some people really need to learn how to shut their pie holes

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

It's possible that I have a bias in favor of depressing TV.

I certainly do.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't know if I am a Ted Lasso person (I like the show but I guess I'm not QUITE as into it as Twitter seems to think people ought to be?) but that thread is delightful.

How did I get this far (actually started watching the show yesterday) without knowing that ASH is Rupert on Ted Lasso???
