I'm waiting on some Seamless that was supposed to be here an hour ago, which is infuriating, because I ordered takeout because I was already too hangry to put something together. That'll learn me. However, instead of learning "The Star-Spangled Man" on ukulele today, I did something different: I adapted a fic I've been noodling around on as a comic ( Read more... )

Weekends are always this catch between wanting to aggressively waste all my time, to spite my weekday obligations, and wanting to fill the days with the things I want in my life -- good food, good company, a bike ride, a trip somewhere, writing for pleasure, a good book. I want summer when I wasn't in the working world, rather than that feeling you ( Read more... )

My dad told me my MCU marathon inspired him to watch The Avengers when it was on TV last night. I refrained from explaining my take on it and just waited for his review to come in. I was not disappointed:The over-reliance on special effects was mitigated by the depth of characterization. Of course, all the characters have back stories from the ( Read more... )

I guess at this point I should mention that I spent 28 straight hours watching MCU films in a packed theater on the Upper West Side? But if you follow me on any other social media sites, you probably knew that already. I think it has given me con crud, and I am still incredibly sore and worn out (will my eyes ever recover?), but... overall I really ( Read more... )

Are we just not talking about RDJ confirming no Iron Man 4 because it's early on a Monday still? I have a feeling some people will have feelings about it. (Chris Evans, for his part, has been saying in interviews "not to take my job away from me yet" and that he loves playing Cap, so. Apparently it's an emotional week for the first wave of MCU ( Read more... )

I don't know anything about PornoKitsch as a website, but they recommended some pretty good MCU fic recently, including stuff by people I DW/Tumblr-know! (Hey

Yesterday was the day I took for myself to basically just lie around at home and aggressively do absolutely nothing. It was a good decision! Aside from the fact that I think I spent only about two hours of my waking time not looking at my laptop. But hey, I've devoured a big chunk of Nat and Bucky comics runs, and am looking forward to more of that ( Read more... )

Well, so, okay. The Avengers is… still too emotionally vacant for me ( Read more... )

Wow. Okay. Wow. Just got back from seeing Cap 2.

Like. Thor is always going to be my favorite of the MCU films. But this, I think, is far and away the best so far. Just -- a legitimately good movie with good storytelling on its own two feet. Wow ( Read more... )

Dream: I somehow have permission and keys to see Chris Evans' Boston-area apartment, where I guess he lived with two non-actor roommates. After some wandering around a Boston (and Cambridge) that looks remarkably like Athens, I let myself into a dark, unimpressive garden apartment. Tiny living room with two couches facing each other. I look around ( Read more... )
