oh, who would ever wanna be king?

→ I find myself increasingly offended by Palin. Not only her snarky speech last night, but everything she stands for. I certainly didn't want to vote for McCain but I didn't feel particularly insulted by him either. This lady is seriously cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

→ My response to more BSG movie casting news (via greycoupon): I am so!excited right now!! Eee! Callum! Needless to say, I am hoping for lots of Sam/Leoben. *nods*

→ Last night I did do a little scribbling. Nothing worth transcribing, but it's a start!

BOO PALIN, WHEE CALLUM!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Word. ;)

IAWTC

I was so interested that Obama being a community organizer was so LULZ inducing.

Also, she has selective memory over the "bridge to nowhere".

[crickets.livejournal.com]

That was one of the things that infuriated me most of all. And I just posted a link in my latest post a few minutes ago to a vlog that addresses that very thing.

Just... *shake-ah, shake-ah*

She scares me.

[browncoatjack.livejournal.com]

YAY Callum! (Sam/Leoben would be good, yes. :D)

And Helfer is on Burn Notice? Buahah! That'll make her like the third guest stars from one of my fav shows. I may need to get caught up, lol!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I think she's been on a bunch of eps already if I remember. I haven't watched it. I think I watched an episode randomly one day and couldn't get into it.

[browncoatjack.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm like three eps into season one, planning to go back to it sometime. I don't know WHY my brother didn't tell me she was on it--he must have forgotten she was on BSG. (Yes my brother, the guy who watches the silly spy show, quit BSG ("for now") 'cause it got "too weird and boring". *headdesk* Sometimes I don't think we're related. Not that the show can do no wrong, but come on, no reason to quit!)
I don't love Burn Notice, but it stars one of my favorite actors so I have to try... (A better show for him though is the US version of Touching Evil. Not many eps but CKR was in one; I died of the squee. :D Dark show but really good...sadly not out on DVD, though.)

[anno-superstar.livejournal.com]

AGREED.
(Sam/Leoben)

Hee. :)


Your icon is pretty, btw.

So here is a direct Lee quote from an email I sent to my best friend this morning:

"So I'm eating brownies for breakfast and wondering if I still find Sarah Palin amusing in that "you stupid gun-toting lunatic learn how to control your retardly named daughter before you tell me what to do with my body" way, or if I'm right back to the start and want to have her medical records and sexual organs changed so she will no longer be representative of my gender."

In short, I totally agree with your frustration.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

LOL the only point I disagree with is that her name is much more normal than Trig and Track. Frick and Frack? What?

[wingedseraph7.livejournal.com]

YAY!!!!!!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Oh! I love your icon! :D

[slybrunette.livejournal.com]

McCain I kind of like, to a point. Palin makes me ill. She's just more of a reason not to vote that way.

Yay for casting news!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah he wasn't the devil or anything. I mean increasingly I've liked him less and less over the campaign for sure. But Palin is just so... I don't even know how to say it. But yeah, she's not anyone I could ever see myself voting for. Ever. Not even as treasurer of my neighborhood book club.

[gigglemonster.livejournal.com]

Callum! Omgsh! This movie is gonna be so awesome!! Eeeeee sam/leoben!!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

!!!

[smercy.livejournal.com]

MORE LEOBEN! MORE LEOBEN!
oh, I'm definitely watching the tv movie now.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yayy!

[smercy.livejournal.com]

sometimes I have to only think about the things that are awesome.
like right now. because politics hurt and I don't need the worry.
so, LEOBEN! LEOBEN! MOOOOORE LEOBEN!

(I wonder if it's a cylon origin story?)

[crickets.livejournal.com]

They really do. This week was particularly bad because of the RNC but now that it's over I really hope it will be less hurty. Or at least... less condensed. Damn.

[smercy.livejournal.com]

this week has been generally horrible.
I just want to go somewhere where it isn't so overwhelming.

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

OMG, Palin. ::rolls eyes:: She thought the Founding Fathers wrote the Pledge of Allegiance. My historian's soul died a little at that D: D:

OMG, Sam/Leoben! And Sam/Kara/Leoben! And Kara/Leoben!
That is, if Kara is in the movie, hee.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Holy crap she did? Wot!?!?!

I really really hope she is! My big theory is that they're keeping the fact that she's cast a secret. For some reason I dunno. LOL.

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

YES SHE TOTES DID. I seriously read that and went, "Or, you know, it wasn't written by them. But okay. Why should we bother with knowledge? I'm sure that's information in a book YOU TRIED TO BAN."

Well, maybe Sam and Leoben will mention how she's waiting for them at home. Um. I have a tinhat obsession, don't mind me.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

"Or, you know, it wasn't written by them. But okay. Why should we bother with knowledge? I'm sure that's information in a book YOU TRIED TO BAN." ← Best response ever.


And yes! I think that would be lovely! Haha, tinhat away!

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

I can usually try and be understanding of all political views, even if I strongly disagree with some (I'm a Libertarian, I disagree with everyone on principle! Even my own party, whose presidential nominee makes me sad inside), and I am incredibly chill about not caring if people disagree with me, but BANNING BOOKS? I just...who does this? OMG. BOOKS. BOOKS FOR READING. I just... ::cries:: What part of your brain goes, "That book is dangerous because it has WORDS in it." It saddens me.

My apologies for the political talk when we have just met!

My tinhat, however, makes me happy :D

[crickets.livejournal.com]

I completely agree with everything you just said and no need to apologize at all.

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

:D Yay! That's good to know. ::twirls you more::

[crickets.livejournal.com]

*is twirled*

I'm commenting on another of your fics and then I am going to bed! G'night!

[sionnain.livejournal.com]

Good night, new friend! Lovely to meet you!!!
