Because it's a theme this week:

"Destroy your personal demons, use their corpses as fuel to light your way."

Me too. Possibly because it's accompanied by sanctimonious advice that is not useful. 'Be more positive!' - which is the gist of all her dodgy self-help advice - is one of the worst and most aggravating pieces of advice to get if you have 'personal demons'.

It bothers me because it feels like a rip-off of Pablo Wapsi's "personal demons" -- in his cosmology every being-with-consciousness has a set of personal demons that can fuck with you, but can't themselves cause harm to another person.

It's the kind of series LKH would dig -- short, busty, Latina-descent BAMF who likes non-girly things but is generally v. femme in appearance -- but it's WAY awesome.
