you know i can't let you slide through my hands
How is it the end of August already? There's a cool nip in the air this morning foreshadowing autumn, and I hate it. I hate that summer ends and winter is coming. Bah, I say, and also feh.
Anyway.
August recs update!
unfitforsociety has been updated for August 2011 with 35 recs in 12 fandoms (including crossovers):
* 9 Captain America
* 9 DCU
* 3 Thor, 2 Avengers movieverse crossovers, 1 Iron Man
* 3 Crossovers
* 2 Discworld
* 2 Harry Potter
* 1 each Supernatural, X-Men: First Class, Avatar: The Last Airbender and Leverage
I decided to list the Avengers movie crossover stories under Avengers and stories that take place only in one of the movies under that particular title. If that gets unwieldy, I'll try something else.
Anyway, read, enjoy, comment! It is the circle of life! Or something.

Icon meme via
petra!
She gave me five icons to talk about:
Starbuck by radiovolume; keyword: for the win!
Starbuck being awesome at cards! I have a bunch of early-BSG happy Kara icons, and this is one of them. I use this generally when something is awesome, or, as the keyword says, for the win!
Laura Roslin's annoyed face, captioned "Bitch, please." by ingrid; keyword: bitch please
Because Roslin has an awesome bitchface, and it comes in handy when discussing things that are ridiculous or total bullshit.
Zooey Deschanel in Almost Famous by infinitemonkeys captioned "One day you'll be cool"; keyword: one day you'll be cool
I love this icon! I love how the colors pop - the pink of her sweater and the blue of her eyes. I don't use this icon enough, because I don't want other people to think I'm saying they're not cool. Mostly I use it when I'm being dorky or mocking myself.
Kalinda Sharma and her camera by shinystar90; keyword: worth a thousand words
Kalinda and her camera, no doubt gathering evidence in a shady fashion - this was my only Good Wife icon for a while (still the only one I have on LJ, I think), so I use it mostly when I post about that show, or on the rare occasion when I'm talking about taking pictures, an activity I am terrible at but can't seem to stop doing anyway.
Christina Hendricks by me; keyword: they would topple empires
This is an icon of Christina Hendricks looking gorgeous in soft-focus. The keyword is something Richard Burton allegedly said about Liz Taylor's breasts; it seemed fitting here. I don't use this icon often enough but it sure is pretty to look at.
