This is a random post.

This week has been stupidly busy. Hopefully next week should be marginally better, and if I concentrate you might even get new Alex fic. (As in, the next chapter of Dating the Cleverest Boy in the World - try no to faint...)

Otherwise, I wanted to share 69 Politicians As They Were In High School (Al Gore, Dan Quayle and Nancy Pelosi were stunning. Elizabeth Warren & Michelle Obama were adorbz. And Mitt Romney... oh the quote is the best thing ever. And Rick Santorum... *snickers*)

Also, apparently the Romney campaign used a Venn diagram to illustrate something, and failed in understanding how they worked (now there's something to inspire confidence...). There is now a Tumblr: Mitt, Venn and Now. This one's my favourite (although go look at them all - most of them are much harder-hitting):



And finally, randomly, a fic rec, because it is the most brilliant thing ever, and there might be people out there who've not read it yet:

Just Impediment. Summary: Queen Elizabeth I is marrying a Mr William Shakespeare (no relation) and there's a mysterious blue box in the alley outside Mrs Miggins' pie shop; Edmund Blackadder is on the case.

I can't even BEGIN to describe how perfect it is. I didn't think it was possible to write Blackadder fic - this proved me wrong in the most amazing way. And the addition of the Doctor is... *waves hands* No liquids near the keyboard.

rl, politics
