[261] hot recs for a cold day :D
hello all!
i've been a little mia due to the hols, hanging out with friends and lovers, and eating a lot of good food. hope you lot have been doing much the same :)
haven't had much time for fandom, but i wanted to get a quick recs edition out before the end of the year, especially since a few of these links have been marinating in my drafts for some time. hope you enjoy 'em! ♥
FIC RECS
1) against your ruins by obstinatrix
: gen. coda to 6x11. oh, this is achingly good and simply perfect. this is what i want to see post-hiatus. i love their codependency as much as the sheer love they have for each other, and despite being a wincester, i love putting on my gen goggles for this fic b/c it feels so absolutely true to character and still within canon ♥
2) only for those who have given up by 3whiteroses
: wincest. dean comes back from hell, but he's different. i liked the dynamic between the winchesters in this fic, and the concluding line was just perfect.
3) your pretty little face is going to hell by sonofabiscuit77
: wincest. this is a gorgeous pre-series fic that captures the winchesters' need and love for each other as well as it conveys the poverty and hardships of the winchester life. made my heart ache in the best of ways.
4) in all the right places by chemm80
: j2/danneel. hot threesome fic with bonus!piercings that's bound to get you all nicely worked up.
5) this tricycle needs a third wheel by mistyzeo
: j2/danneel. holy shit, this fic is so hot it's fucking INCENDIARY. i mean, the smut is just brain-breakingly good. but more importantly, i love the way jensen and danneel court jared, and how it definitely doesn't feel like jared's a third wheel barging in on an established relationship - the fic title is incredibly apt!
6) attention, wal-mart shoppers by transfixeddream
: j2 au. cute fic with a teensy bit of angst, humour and a happy ending.
7) cor aut mors by ebcdic
: j2 au. usually slavefic isn't my cup of tea, but i'm really glad i gave this story a chance b/c it has great characterisation and successfully manages to convey a sense of the historical period without being overbearing or boring.
ART RECS
1) hey man, just let me by amindaya
: j2. the detail is incredible - almost looks like a photo in places! i like the shading too.
2) dance by paula_lirio
: j2. beautiful art with gorgeous vibrant colours and the prettiest of boys.

2) TIME person of the year: mark zuckerberg: for a sec i was confused that jesse eisenberg's face wasn't on the cover /0\ anyway, IT SHOULD BE JULIAN ASSANGE!
3) facebook connections map the world: this is a beautiful image of the world connected by facebook. technology, why so cool?
4) red twitter: china debuts communist microblog: would you use it? i'm gonna see if i can sign up for it.
5) stem cell transplant cures hiv in 'berlin patient': this is AMAZING. i can't wait to see the results of further testing!
6) why biracial americans consider them more black than white: interesting read. thoughts?
7) the complicated link between wealth and obesity: women who are better educated and wealthier are less likely to be obese.
