A bunch of things
Today I had my first peach in months. Summer! December! When did this year get so far?
fannish5 for today: Five characters with the most unfortunate hair styles.
-- Everyone in Yu-Gi-Oh!, at first glance. Joey's hair is the reason I decided not to watch after seeing the first episode. (Well okay, it's the main reason. And obv. that changed later.) It made me feel claustrophobic.
-- Once I read a review that said that, while Christopher Walken is a fine actor, he is always outacted by Christopher Walken's Hair. I'm not sure I agree, but now I can't stop eyeballing Christopher Walken's Hair whenever he appears in something.
-- Everyone in Bleach who has achieved Real Ultimate Power, and also Tatsuki. What up with the mullets, folks? There can be good mullets, but these do not apply.
-- Hibari did not wash his hair for the first five volumes of KHR. There is a reason I thought he looked like the son of Pollution (source: jdillon, this post).
-- Jessie from Pokémon. Because the show never let her use it as a weapon! What else was it for?
If I ever made a mood theme, it would be one image, and it would be the text of the following poem:
The history of my stupidity would fill many volumes.
Some would be devoted to acting against consciousness,
Like the flight of a moth which, had it known,
Would have tended nevertheless toward the candle’s flame.
Others would deal with ways to silence anxiety,
The little whisper which, though it is a warning, is ignored.
I would deal separately with satisfaction and pride,
The time when I was among their adherents
Who strut victoriously, unsuspecting.
But all of them would have one subject, desire,
If only my own-but no, not at all; alas,
I was driven because I wanted to be like others.
I was afraid of what was wild and indecent in me.
The history of my stupidity will not be written.
For one thing, it’s late. And the truth is laborious.

yuritoday exists! It's a newsletter comm that started up recently that lists links to femmeslash things in anime/manga and game fandoms.
And for some reason today's picture prompt at staringout completely cracks me up. That's a very unexpected source of comfort.
