I've been glued to this chair for hours now. I just realised that I haven't even eaten. Haven't done this for a few months...
I'm doing it because I'm sitting on an IRC channel discussing the Farscape mobilisation effort. There's a lot going on - interest from other networks, a planned ad in Variety... and it looks like we already saved the sets from destruction - now they're going into storage rather than into skips.
Anyway, things are definitely moving under the pressure, but I just wanted to say a bit about why I'm doing this. I know it's odd when the cancellation of a television show provokes a storm of activism... it's just a TV show, right?
It's precisely because there's so little quality TV being made these days that 'only a TV show' is a legitimate reaction at all. There's so little that's worth watching these days, which is why it's so important to support the handful of shows that are genuinely good. Farscape is entertaining, enriching, innovative television of the highest quality, and its cancellation is a loss to all of its viewers across the world. I believe it's worth my time and support.
And we got our own Photoshop contest on Fark.
So in that respect, at least, it's all been worth it.
Sometimes something just strikes us as important,a nd time almost stands still. It was like that for me during the Gulf War. I spend almost all my moments tuned to CNN International watching events unfold moment by moment. The night that they thought chemical SCUDs were being launched at Israel was amazing. The folks on camera rushing to get their masks on. It was just.. I can't describe it any better than that.
Well thanks for trivialising my story :)
nice to see I'm not the only one who thought of that
Adobe did such an awesome job with Photoshop. I think they must be at the top on the list of the most influencial programs. Everything you see all around you is photoshopped. How would magazines look without it?
D0ES ANYONE NO ANY SITES OR SOMETHING WHERE ii CAN PHOTOSHOP MY PICTURES LIKE MAKE THEM DIFFRENT COLORS AND M0VE LIKE HOE SIDEKICKS MAKE PICTRES?
Im impressed, I need to say. Really rarely do I come across a weblog thats both informative and entertaining, and let me tell you, youve hit the nail on the head. Your blog is important; the problem is something that not enough men and women are talking intelligently about. Im truly happy that I stumbled across this in my search for some thing relating to this problem.
99% accurate but you've got a bit of, well, to put it bluntly, garbage there.
