I liked Dominion this season much more than the last one but today's season finale left me pissed off.

[Spoiler (click to open)]They killed off Claire and turned Noma evil. While David and Risen are still alive. I was already about Uriel being killed off of screen. Now we only have Arika left and just as she and Claire became friends. I quit shows for shit like that. I ( Read more... )

I just updated to Lollipop and I don't like it. I liked all the previous versions of Android and I was very happy with KitKat when I got S5 but this update is all kinds of irritating. The worst part is white background on the notifications and settings and all the phone stuff (phone, contacts, messaging). It was so much better looking and easier on ( Read more... )

My TV tastes are a little uncommon. I'm not overly fond of the two guys solving the case of the week type of shows. I prefer to have larger group of people and I like story arcs. I got bored by Supernatural after couple of episodes and all my tries to get to it later ended the same eventually (also because all the interesting secondary characters ( Read more... )

I've been avoiding #Gamergate for the same reason I avoided Ebola - just thinking about it makes me sad and angry. But at least Ebola is a virus - it doesn't have a malicious intent. #Gamergate is bringing out some of the worst stuff humanity has to offer. I suppose it's not surprising for something that's started with some guys revenge/hate posts ( Read more... )

There is little I find as abhorrent as anti-vaxxers. Vaccines are one of the more miraculous inventions we ever discovered. They protect you before you even get sick against think that often cannot be cured and often are deadly or can damage you health for life. Almost all reasons to not take them are bogus, made up non-sense. The few cases that ( Read more... )

There has been a lot of deaths on TV recently. It seems to be the latest fad among the shows - killing one of the main characters. There seems to be many reasons behind it - from actors wanting to leave the show to just going for pure shock value. Here are some recent ones that, for me, fell on the opposite spectrum in term of execution ( Read more... )

This is not geranium and acacia cannot grow in Poland but noone ever cares about accuracy except for botanists (and it's even worse in my field with added bonus of people not understanding what they are talking about).

Look, it's another attack of the Fake Geek Girls. All those too pretty young women who are not really pretty but just made pretty by the cosplay of characters they know nothing of but dress up as just so they can get admiration from boys they don't want to have anything to do with. They just came to steal the fandoms they know nothing about and ( Read more... )

I was to post something fun today and then I saw this and I saw red. Someone asked seanan-mcguire when one of her female protagonists will get raped. WHEN! Not "if" (which also is really bad question) but "when". There was also "finally" in there. There is so many thing wrong with that question that I'm almost speechless. What kind of person thinks it's OK to ( Read more... )

Sometimes, in my little corner of the web, I tend to forget that fr many internet is a place to say all those things they are not allowed to talk in public. And not in that good, strike against censorship way. No, it's all hate and invectives and mob attacks. It's also a form of censorship because it is a way to intimidate, shame and scare that ( Read more... )
