Torchwood blues....

I'm terribly depressed having seen the last two episodes tonight. I mean, it was bloody well fantastic, but so fucking gut wrenching. I felt positively ill at ease by the time it was done. Looking through some postings, on on the new Gally-Base forum, it seems to me that some of fandom is confusing the fact that it got them down with it's being somehow bad viewing. Surely the fact that this series was able to elicit such a gut response is proof enough that this was real quality we were watching! That's what good art's supposed to do, folks!

I certainly don't think Torchwood is over, particularly with the ratings it's been receiving this week. We know that that isn't the last we'll see of Jack, after all, as set reports place him as returning on Who at Christmas. Still, I loved this character, and I have genuinely been made to despise him by the end of the last episode. Fucking brilliant!

I'm really rather pissed about what they just did on House tonight....

Actually, I'm also rather pissed that they did much the same thing on The Sarah Connor Chronicles on Friday so casually...

Information age prayer!

Don't have time in your busy daily schedule for prayer? Maybe you love Jesus very much, kind of, but just don't have the time to talk to him? Ever? Or maybe your one of those agnostics, you don't really "believe" believe, but you'd like to hedge your bets? Boy do I have the site for you: Information Age Prayer! For the low price of $3.95 a month, they will run your prayer of choice through a voice synthesizer every day, and allow the computer to speak to god for you. Is a loved one sick? For only $9.95 per month, the computer will beg god to help them 5 times a day!

Isn't that nice?

Hey, Israel!

Freedom of the press means.... well, freedom of the press. Not the guided tours for foreign journalists into Israeli approved select areas of the Gaza strip, and certainly not the complete media block out you have been enforcing until now. Freedom of the Press is a pretty basic tenet of a real democracy. Without it, well, you simply aren't living up to your democratic ideals. So, if you're not behaving like a true democracy.... remind me again why other democracys are supposed to support you without reservation again?
