So I got to meet up with one of my favorite girls today, Vero, and spend some quality time catching her up on my life and babbling about H50 and how ridic O'Lough and Caan are together, and threatening to beat the shit out of her co-workers if they don't ease up on her.

Also, season one has a few skeevy racial issues that made me uncomfortable to watch. When all the PoC characters I see are either evil, victims, or callous human beings while the white people are all glorious and noble, I really have to wonder what the show is trying to tell me. I mean, I finally got an Indian woman onscreen, but she turned out to be a completely unlikable character. Like, what the fuck, show? We can be quiet heroes too, you know.
