Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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

I thought she basically was playing herself for Rory.

Well, she basically played Rory for Traveling Pants and Bride and Prejudice, so how were you to know any different? I'm glad she's able to prove her skill now, though.

ETA: My history with The Handmaid's Tale is first seeing the movie with Natasha Richardson and Faye Dunaway on late night tv. It intrigued me so I tracked down the book, which horrified me enough to become part of the tools with which I assess and evaluate world events. I used it as a reference for a fic I wrote, partly for my own catharsis and processing, partly as a wakeup call for some readers. It continues to generate comments and discussion.

I haven't seen the new series, but I've read a lot about it. And while I'm really very glad that it's generating interest and discussion about real-world events, I agree with Glam. For me, the new series seems like torture porn, and I'm not there for that.

I do have an urge to track down the movie and watch it again. I don't know if I can sustain a fourth or fifth reading of the book, though.

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

Watching S2 of Sens8 and there is some excellent local casting. Mary Beth Fisher! John Judd! Janet Ulrich Brooks! Holy shit, John Judd is important to this season!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Is Twin Peaks talk in here, because I watched on Hulu or Premuim because of Showtime?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I wondered, too, Sophia. Modern media exists to defy our organizational systems. Twin Peaks talk is in Premium.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Handmaid's Tale is getting a 2nd season? Huh? That could be amazing or a complete disaster.

That handmaid power walk was everything though.

There will be a Sense8 two-hour movie next year.

You guys should be watching Glow. It might be the most compulsively watchable show I've seen in a long time.
