• 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 6: Character I Love That Everyone Else Hates

    I tend to stay clear of fandoms of shows I like because, yeah, they can be pretty toxic. People get offended about the weirdest stuff; I don’t like bacon, and I swear, I might as well have said I murdered puppies for fun. Basically, what I’m saying is I had to go look this shit…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 5: Least Favorite Cylon

    Cylons are fascinating. They are just as varied as their human creators, both as standalone models and individuals, with their own motivations and personal drives. None can be called truly good or evil, although certain models do have a tendency to lean amoral (looking at you, Cavil), and I delight in watching them interact with…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 4: Favorite Cylon

    Although I’m running the risk of starting with something that seems like a non sequitur, I loved Due South as a kid. It was such a wholesome show, and to this day, it holds a special place in my heart. Given that statement, a big reason as to who my favorite Cylon happens to be…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 3: Least Favorite Character

    My loathing of Lee “Apollo” Adama* is well-known by anyone who talks Battlestar Galactica with me, and I do not apologize for it. He’s one of the most self-righteous, oblivious, childish, back-stabbing characters of the entire series. He spends most of his time trying to figure out a way to not be his dad, which,…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 2: Favorite Character

    When most people hear that Kara “Starbuck” Thrace is my favorite BSG character, they aren’t surprised. I see so much of myself in her that it’s difficult to truly feel any anger at her when she does something that isn’t exactly constructive, and that empathy I have for her has only deepened as I have…

  • 31 Day Challenge: Battlestar Galactica, Day 1: How I Was Introduced to Battlestar Galactica

    I’d like to say that I’d seen the promos and ads everywhere on the SciFi channel, that I’d waited for the very first episode with a lingering excitement that kept me up at night. But honestly, I’d never even heard of the show – the original or the reimagining – until nearly the end of…

    31 day challenge

    Well, guess what … it’s time for another challenge! Like with my Buffy challenge, I’ve already done this on my old blog, but I wanted to revisit it … and give me an excuse to rewatch the entire series from the beginning. Again. What? I adore the shit out of this show, and honestly, I think I love…

    This is a venting/bitching post, so feel free to scroll on by. Just FYI. You know, I like money. I really do. I like being able to pay my bills and various pleasant things like food or the occasional new top or something. But fuck, I have been basically doing nothing but working for the…

    I made a decision about a week ago that I am going to hold off on writing The Legion for the time being. It’s not that I’ve lost interest – I most definitely have not – but this other story, my own story, keeps popping up in my head. So I’m dusting off my old…

    I don’t really understand why he’s picked up this habit, but Ramses has decided that he wants to bring all of my roommate’s dog’s toys up into my bedroom. I’ll wake up to at least four or five in my bed (one time, I woke up because he dropped a stuffingless giraffe on my face),…
