*Torchwoods across the internet* (shut up it is totally a verb)
1. CAPTAIN MARVEL. Are they going to cast Katee Sakhoff or Anna Torv? I am half-holding out for Anna (and then Katee can be Phylla and Tricia can be Moondragon. YOU KNOW IT WOULD BE AMAZING. I have just confirmed this with bluediamond421)
2. Excuse you, but I do want my Captain Marvel to not be Earth-based and surrounded by white dudes. It's a hope.
3. Clara and Twelve = still loving them.
4. Work. It is amazing how people will say, "you should go on the HR site and apply to jobs" and how as a contractor I don't have access to that site (fuck you, hire me)
5. This is amazing - it is a list of one-two-three-episode characters in Oldskool Who and the fics written for them (the House on Allen Road needs more fic, guys; also, so does Gia Kelly. WHERE IS THE GIA KELLY FIC OF MY HEART HIDING?) (if you have more fic to add, go add it)
6. I am pretty sure PoI is doing amazing things this season (Root/Shaw is nearly canon)
7. I am loving the fuck out of Civil Twilight's "Holy Weather" album. (Fave tracks: Holy Weather, The River, Fire Escape, Shape of a Sound, It's Over and Every Walk That I've Ever Taken Has Been in Your Direction)
8. COMICS
a. Deadpool is still killing me, you guys. Issue 34. I almost couldn't. (also, that 90's art is amazing)
b. Not sure I'm liking Storm, but I'm trying to give it a chance (also, where are her organs, artist? Like for fuck's sake, learn anatomy, you aren't Rob Liefeld OR drawing in the 90's)
c. Kamala is still adorable.
d. Hawkeye vs Deadpool is AMAZEBALLS. Almost as amazing as Deadpool vs X-Force was.
e. Velvet was a bit dull this time round. (it was about two dudes, I'm unsurprised. Velvet Templeton is a billion times more interesting than they are)
f. Black Widow continues to keep her clothing on, not use sex to get shit done, and be amazing.
g. Painkiller Jane/22 Brides. Looks like that's it for a while (SO SAD). Also, apparently, there's another film in the works. That sounds terrible but entertaining.
h. Elektra. I still have no idea what the fuck what is going on, but it is so pretty.
9. The worst thing is when your turkey snack sticks are kinda mushy. sigh.
10. I finished First Frontier (did I mention I was reading it?idek). And 1) oh, look, someone else rebooted a Time Lord's lives. I wonder if there was usenet controversy and flame wars over it? 2) this means Falls the Shadow is next, and I don't think I can do it, flist. I couldn't make it through that novel the first time through.
10a. obvsly, I should skip and read Warlock instead.
11. I keep getting kudoes on Red Herring. It's almost enough to make me dig out the rest from mothballs.
11a. That might require effort, though
12. GUYS. people should go read ALL the femslashex fics and give them masses of feedback. So should I. hrm.
13. Scott and Bailey is back and amazing and I have all the feels. Obviously.
14.
Booklist update - in no order because I stopped caring; also, pretty much the entire list is re-reads.
Michelle Martin's ouvre (all five)
M. Devon's ouvre (at least three of them)
Best Laid Plans by Emma Jensen (yes, again)
First Frontier by David A McIntee
Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett
Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett
Witches Abroad by Terry Pratchett
Lords and Ladies by Terry Pratchett
Skeleton Crew by Beverly Connor. Re-read. Definitely still enjoy, though there's too much exposition at times.
I think that was it, sadly.
