I think I ought to do something about the way the universe is unfolding, because there are things that need obvious and immediate attention…’ –Jo Walton, Among Others.

Now if only Netflix would pick up The Borgias I’d forgive them for what they did to Arrested Development. But I guess for now I’ll have to stick to my…
