A Study in Emerald Kickstarter
12 days left; I’m stoked. If nothing else, you really should see their card designs.
#howtonotgiveaFUCK: How do you start not giving a fuck?
- Don’t ignore the problems you face. Rather, come to terms with them.
- Realize your insignificance amidst the rest of the universe – It is the epitome of narcissism to think that our individual actions have any consequence in a universe where the…
Fucks are to be carefully rationed to the deserving. Nobody has an infinite supply, and if you try to, you’re delusional.

There seems to be a lot of huff and puff going around about whether or not it’s ok for women to be topless in public. Most notably, it seems that the major argument is that “It’s ok for…
How about men put their fucking shirts back on, too?
I don’t think anybody should be walking around in public naked, it’s disgraceful. Say what you want about freedom of body and license to show it, but I don’t want to see it, put that shit away. How about my right to not have to look at it?
I’ve tried to watch the remake twice now, I’m sure it’s fine, but there is none of the impact of the original in the first episode. In the original, you see Nikita’s life as a street urchin, then you see how it ends, in a sequence with no dialogue. In the remake, you get a deadpan voiceover of Nikita giving exposition over her typing on a laptop. Even describing the two openers doesn’t compare.
La Femme Nikita is a gem that should not go lost to television history. Not perfect, of course, but also allowing a strong female lead to be sexy badass while generally wearing actual clothing, and put forth some hard questions about the ethics of maintaining world peace in a time when cause-driven violence is increasingly the work of terrorists and private individuals instead of armies or governments. The enemy is a relative concept. How far do the means have to go before the ends justify them? All that fun stuff.
Nikita is right there next to Xena, and if she isn’t for you, well. You should go see what you missed back in the day.
