    “Do I get stress headaches at work? Yes, definitely. From the moment I get in, it’s “Denise we need this! Denise we need that!” Which is stressful… ‘cause my name is Linda. Denise is the other black woman that works here. By 10am, someone in the copy room makes a joke about Kobe Bryant, and everyone looks at me to make sure it’s ok. And I smile like it’s ok. But really, my head and neck are starting to throb. Then I spend the rest of my afternoon training my interns, and answering their questions, like, “Yes, black people use shampoo”, and, “No, I don’t know any good reggae clubs around here”, and, “Yes, Condoleezza Rice is very articulate, why do you sound so surprised?” And, “No, I can’t tell you where to buy weed!” And that’s when I reach for Excedrin.”

    SO THERES ALL THESE FANDOMS

    fl0e:

    and zillions of fantastic gifsets of dr who, sherlock, game of thrones, hunger games

    BUT ZERO LOVE FOR THE ONE FANDOM I WANT TO CHERISH AND SNUGGLE: Battlestar Galactica

    gimme all the motivational gifsets :( so many opportunities, such glorious cinematography, where is the LOVE

    I watched nBSG to the bitter, strange end when it aired. I loved the hell out of it.

    Flawed as it is in places, it is probably the best American-made space opera to date. It’s kind of going to occupy an odd place as time goes on, because it has a definite ending point, and you can’t make a BLOCKBUSTER FRANCHISE out of something like that.

    (Not to say that they didn’t try: the Caprica prequel series never had the momentum it needed and died pretty quickly. It was actually a re-tooling of a completely different concept for a show that originally had nothing to do with BSG.

    Now that BSG is over, the Sci-fi channel has basically gone back into the same state of hibernation it was in before the show catapulted it to dazzling heights. They can’t figure out how they’re going to top it without bankrupting themselves and they don’t even have any more Stargate left to milk. So it’s back to the MEGASHARK movies and now wrestling i guess? Good luck with that guys.

    Anyway, one fun thing to do after you’re all done with the show would be to go back and watch some of Ronald D. Moore’s Star Trek work, because BSG is sprinkled with all sorts of stuff that he really wanted to do with Star Trek over the years but couldn’t. Anyone who came into BSG with even a passing familiarity with DS9 kind of chuckled at the sort of stuff that reappeared, like Tyrol being tormented throughout the length of the show much like Miles O’ Brien was. Or the tight focus on continuity, or the attempt to try and come up with a universe that was more or less plausible and gritty.

    Ronald D. Moore pretty much quit Star Trek when Voyager came along, as the morons in charge finally won out and spent the next seven seasons of that shittrap almost completely destroying the franchise. BSG is basically the anti-Voyager if you think about it - it takes a bunch of characters that resemble actual people and has them basically claw their way through escalating adversity. It was unafraid to take risks, and it did it’s best to try and push the envelope. All Voyager did was place a bunch of mannequins on some spotless set, have them fart out a bunch of technobabble and hit the reset button over and over until everyone stopped caring or watching.

    Anywhoo, you’re going to find that just about everyone has their own opinion about the ending. It was either too cute, too weird, too ambiguous, or some combination of the three. I thought that it suffered a bit from having been revised too heavily during the writer’s strike, that it could and should have been a lot crazier. Preferably End Of Evangelion levels of crazier, but that’s just me.

    …Anyway, here’s the biggest source of GIFs from the show I know of: http://www.randomtuesday.com/archive/?view=Battlestar%20Galactica

    technicolorpie: While I was kind of on the fence about all the stuff going on with Kayla-Na and even played the devil’s advocate more than once, I think I need to make it clear: I very much dislike Sciggles. You know how there are some people you just get a *feeling* about? For me, Sciggles has always been one of those people. I really can’t think of a better way to say it then she’s… gross. Everything about her demeanor is greasy and disgusting and rubs me the wrongest possible way. I wouldn’t trust her farther than I could throw her, and with me being a fat out-of-shape bitch and her being the same that’s not very far. She should not be an admin, nevermind that she’s been upgraded to the admin IN CHARGE of admins in spite of her very short time being on the staff. I’m not going to say it as crudely as some, but it’s painfully obvious to anyone that she sweet-talked her way into the position via Dragoneer and had she never been dating/engaged to him it never would have happened. Her outlook on administrative matters is INCREDIBLY childish - she will honestly throw the “You can’t complain because it’s free!” argument instead of doing what a logical, helpful admin would do and try and see things from the user’s perspective. The argument has always been flawed, and I say that as someone who served on staff of a fairly popular art site for a time. Before she ever even became an admin she showed that she had little control over her emotions — more than once she posted a journal that Dragoneer later had to do damage control for. No sensible person would look at this behavior and think Sciggles had the maturity to handle staffing on a site the size of FurAffinity. There’s also the fact that, if I understand things correctly, she still owes quite a number of people commissions. Yet, she still takes in more commissions in spite of saying she’s super busy/stressed because of her upcoming wedding. Someone stressed/busy should especially not be taking on head admin responsibilities - I was only a normal staffer on the site I was on and the amount of stress I had over dealing with problems there was enough to give me ulcers. I actually quit for my own mental health when I did. In spite of what it may seem like if you’ve never done so, it is not a very thankful job. In the interest of full disclosure: It should be noted that I have never run afoul of Sciggles. She has never banned any close friend of mine. So it’s not as if I have any sort of axe to grind that will color my perspective. She just gives me that yucky feeling. None of this is really new behavior for FA though. They’ve never cared. Ever. I’m seeing nothing different here from way back when Wolfblade and Chase decided to go on their own little power trips. The best thing to do about FA’s problems is to try to stop caring, I’ve found. Work around them. Find other places to go, if you can. Because the site is not getting fixed, ever. Life’s too short to obsess over this BS. Everything that can be said about that dumb site has been said a zillion times. It’s kind of a shame to watch as people just keep spinning in circles like this. Especially since all the really bad shit that’s come through the site in recent years has been memory-holed anyway.
