the killing is such a gloomy representation of Seattle! I know it's a dark show but it makes me sad that people don't know better would think that's what it's like! It's bc of Canada, IMO.

it's been gray and raining all damn day; I'm going to sail a tiny boat in my basement Columbia when I get home while singing like Woodie Guthrie

i like watching gloomy things. the relentless blue skies and sunshine and lack of seasons where i live gets on my nerves sometimes, it's boring and it makes people think about their bodies too much. a lot of people here are utter bores about their bodies and their health and their fitness. also the climate makes people buy boats and then there is a risk of being invited to get trapped on one for hours on end fending off boiled prawns and being told you're no fun because you don't drink by people who also aren't any fun whether they drink or not, the hide of them.

tehersa, you know people who live in seattle have been known to actively perpetuate the myth that it is always cloudy and rainy here, so people from california won't move here.

When I first moved here, people told me they dealt with it by not looking up.

And I bought an umbrella that was black on the outside and painted with blue skies and fluffy white clouds on the inside, just to spite them.

now I buy tricksy ones with lights in the end to shine on my path and blue leds in the entire handle so I look like an extra from Bladerunner (or that I have modified my light sabre)

it actually took me a couple of episodes to realise the killing was set in seattle - it looks like canada! it's very un-americany in its style.

i mean, except for us
iirc it was filmed in canadia! i don't mind watching gloomy things and i love rain, and i understand the keeping californians out thing, i just want my partner to want to like seattle. i am going to show him the beautiful panorama from real ilx to counter any bad impressions.
and people ARE assholes! i had so many asshole encounters (ew) today, it made me so aggro :(
