i was obsessed with the show when it was new, but haven't had the stomach to watch it again since then. i'm kind of afraid of it not holding up on a rewatch considering how "war on terror" flavored it felt even at the time (same reason i dislike a lot of star trek enterprise).
now that we've had a couple of decades of increasing fascism at home i'd probably pick up on those themes a lot more. i could definitely anticipate seeing roslin in a much darker light now

Hey folks, please take a minute to sign the “No Contract, No Coffee! Pledge” to show Solidarity With Starbucks Workers United.
Support Starbucks baristas in their fight for a union and a fair contract, and pledge not to cross the picket line by not patronizing any Starbucks store when baristas are on strike. Even you don’t patronize Starbucks for whatever reason, add your name to the pledge to show our siblings at SBWU that you have their backs.

For those of us of a certain age: somebody took EVERY DJ break by Dr. Johnny Fever (WKRP in Cincinnati) and matched it with the music he was announcing. The result is a 3 hour Dr. Johnny Fever show which you can listen to here: awphooey.com/wkrp
It’s pretty fun and the music mix is good.

in reply to Brian Harrod • • •The image is split into two distinct scenes. On the left, a man with a faint smile stands outdoors, wearing a dark jacket and pants. Behind him, a large Argentinian flag, with its light blue and white horizontal stripes, unfurls in the air. The background consists of lush green undergrowth and numerous trees, some with fresh leaves.
On the right, a person's light-skinned hand holds two passports. One passport is dark blue, and the other is dark red or burgundy; both display a crest or coat of arms on their covers. The background for this scene is a field of dry, light brown grass or reeds, with sparse, mostly leafless trees in the distance.
