Update:

1) This video is the best thing ever.

2) Blog posts chez moi: the long one about race in my books, and the TAF outtake with Bernard as Sam Gamgee3) I'm doing some of the transcription on the Bulletin (see last post) now that my sister's done enough scanning for there to be work for two. The original text is typed on onionskin and ( Read more... )

Things:

1) Wow, Hannibal finale, way to earn your content warnings. Also… what? What?!!! (I suspect the Hamlet-like bloodbath is by way of saying "hey, network, this is what you get for not renewing us till after we'd written it" but holy shit ( Read more... )

My head is a bit scattered today (see below) but I must at least register the WOW at the Person of Interest finale. Talk about game-changers! I'll need to watch it again (next Tuesday will be the first opportunity, I think) but really: this is the show that hangs "procedural" out in the wind and lets the birds shit on it.

So somehow (I suppose via my usual effort to distinguish myself through eccentricity) I've been Tumblr-blogging a series of posts in what I call the Lost Clothing Database, which is not about lost clothing but about clothing on "Lost." It started with Ben Linus's striped shirts, and it's still mostly him, but other characters have been making ( Read more... )
