I’m not going to claim this show has aged well, or that it was even all that great during its peak, but it was cyberpunk.
Created by James Cameron, the show was was about a genetically engineered super soldier (Jessica Alba) who escaped from a secret government facility to hide in the cyberpunk city of Seattle. She works as a bike courier with a bunch of other low-lifes and can barely afford rent. She meets up with an underground activist who’s trying to expose the lies and cover-ups of governments and corporations. Society has totally broken down and the corrupt police force has checkpoints setup between neighborhoods.
So a totally cyberpunk premise, but the show was basically a CW show before the CW existed. It’s all beautiful 20-somethings and cheesy writing. And then season 2 came along and the show was now about all the half-human/half-animal hybrids Jessica Alba helped escape from the secret government facility in the season 1 finale. It got weird.
Here’s a clip from early season 2 where Jessica Alba’s character returns to work after almost dying in the season 1 finale:

Yes, her friend’s name is Original Cindy and her boss’s name is Normal.
I’m not sure if I’d call this post a recommendation since I can’t find many good things to say about it. But I’ve seen the entire show and I’m curious if anyone else remembers it and has more fond memories of it than I do.
Thought more than once about getting one. Thank god I was poor at the time, lol. Now, a qr code that takes you to a rick-roll, that I’m still thinking about

I got two and stopped. They’re like a favorite shirt you’ll wear for ever and ever. Didn’t think about it like that till it was too late. The qr code would only work if you go over the some magic number of tats where a joke one doesn’t distract

Ahh, stickers. I used to have so many “saved for later” then one day I just started putting them on my journal. Sure I miss some of them, but I can always look at them and remember what I was doing when I put them on. Let go of the stickers first, then maybe you’ll work up to a tattoo or two, lol?
