Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

A thing I like about the hummingbird hawk moth is that it is named in the style of a frazzled parent trying to get one child's name but saying every other child's name first and maybe also the family pet as well

Showing some friends Babylon 5 for the first time, we've made it to season 5
we have decided that Byron reminds us of a very intense horse, and it honestly makes his scenes more bearable to be like 'ah, the horse is back, and he's upset'
