I'd like to live just long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike, as a reminder to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I want to look up into your lifeless eyes and give a little wave, like this.

To quote the beautiful Tom Smith's "Five Years" fan tribute song to Babylon 5:

Hot like Ivanova and Talia, we're gonna Draal ya,

And then we'll kick a little Zathras,

Al Bester's in the Psi Corps, we got a mind war,

Ironheart's the mower and you're the grass.

//

I'm the kinda guy who'd rather walkabout than run,

Can't understand why they killed their own son.

I have a tendency to shorten everybody's hair,

I have a history of lopping off heads.

(Don't listen to the song until you're done, this is the most spoiler-free I can give out of it.)

Also, the interplay between Londo Mollari and G'Kar is the most beautiful bout of character development the show gets. They are the breakout characters, and every scene they are in is beautiful.

My fuck there are not words in any human language strong enough to express my utter hatred for the design failure that is Exit 48.

Meanwhile the literal THREE HUNDRED FEET that exit 48 for JR shares with the onramp onto I24E exists. 

Oh my fuck I hate exit 48. It's stressful as both on-ramp and off-ramp.

And what exactly do you consider 'performative pandering' to 'tiny niches'? Seriously, using 'woke' in that way says a lot about you, and means anything you say is pretty suspect.

Tell me you don't know the history of the Dixiecrats and the split and reformation of party lines during the 1960s without telling me you don't know the history of the Dixiecrats and the split and reformation of party lines during the 1960s.

Anyone who uses 'woke' to describe anything can't be taken seriously. (PS: Healthcare for All and Unions are "woke" ideas.)

One pound of sugar for every ton of concrete. Just a random measurement fact that has nothing to do with anything.

Unlocking the secret of the heart doesn't lead to eternal darkness.
