Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Man holds hostages at Discovery TV building

Lee appears to have posted environmental and population-control demands online, saying humans are ruining the planet and that Discovery should develop programs to sound the alarm.

“I want Discovery Communications to broadcast on their channels to the world their new program lineup and I want proof they are doing so. I want the new shows started by asking the public for inventive solution ideas to save the planet and the remaining wildlife on it,” the alleged manifesto reads, adding:"Nothing is more important than saving ... the Lions, Tigers, Giraffes, Elephants, Froggies, Turtles, Apes, Raccoons, Beetles, Ants, Sharks, Bears, and, of course, the Squirrels. The humans? The planet does not need humans.”

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I could so go for a Peets coffee and a visit to the Cheese Board right now.

One of Emmett's Little League coaches was one of the founders of the Cheese Board.

Admit it. One of you came up with this.

[music autoplay warning] There's a site called unhearit that plays an allegedly catchy song to dislodge earworms. That's its raison d'être.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I kind of love this part.

Always Anti-fascist!

Somehow "the security guard outfit" does not have the same lascivious import as "the nurse outfit" I tried, though. If squirrels can make television the hour drama is fucked.

Reality tv should improve, though.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Now I'm wondering--was Remington a reformed criminal, or an abstaining one?

Getting back to this late, he was either abstaining or it was left ambiguous, IIRC.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I should have called it Sterling Syndrome because I was really thinking of that character specifically.

That is what it is. You are never supposed to root for him, it seems, when he's doing the right thing. When he's a bad person (halloo Crowley!) it seems easier.

he was either abstaining or it was left ambiguous, IIRC.

Out of the love of a lady...blech. Not that I didn't watch it all. I just don't remember it all.
