So I don't dare check LJ/DW or anything fandom related at work. I don't even check my fandom email. I am super paranoid and I know they monitor us, and also people are looking over my shoulder all the time not because they're nosy, but just because we work in very close quarters. I'm actually trying to never type "redbrickrose" into my work ( Read more... )

7 Scientific Reasons a Zombie Outbreak Would Fail (Quickly)Yeah, ok I guess, but I tend to agree with the second comment down that there are certain assumptions being made about zombies here that I am not sure are safe assumptions. Also, zombies can recruit and people can't and I feel like that's being overlooked. Zombie survival/evacuation plans ( Read more... )

1) inlovewithnight wrote me fic for graduation! Incidents and Accidents. Gabe/Ryland and everything I love about them and a few narrative tropes that I love deeply whatever the context, and a nod to Victoria/Nate. She knows me well.

Hello flist! Visiting poepi in Charlotte was great fun and now I am back home and my car is unpacked and I am never getting in it again.

Guys, this makes me strangely happy. (Am I just really late to the party that I didn't know there was a Succeed Blog before? I mean, Fail Blog is hilarious and all, but there's something just kind of delightful about surfing Batman succeed, you know ( Read more... )

It's raining again. AGAIN WITH THE RAIN. We're supposed to have a really harsh winter here, and I bet you can guess how much I'm looking forward to that ( Read more... )

My brother likes to send me articles about weird space phenomena because he knows it freaks me out. Yesterday he sent an email with the subject line, "more stuff that is horrifying" and it just had this link:

"Dark Flow" Discovered at Edge of the Universe: Hundreds of Millions of Stars Racing Towards a Cosmic Hotspot

The unexplained motion has ( Read more... )

1) I've skimmed back through skip a million on my flist, but I know there's a whole lot I've missed fannishly. I'm glad everyone at Writercon had fun, and I'm trying to catch up on that stuff. I also missed ibarw completely, though I have a whole lot bookmarked that I need to read through. I hate feeling so behind on fandom, but I should ( Read more... )

I have not checked LJ/DW in two days and I am drunk right now and about to pass out, but I got home and mischiefmydear had linked Buffy vs. Twilight to my LJ and I hadn't seen it yet, so I wanted to make sure that all BtVS fen on my flist had. This is how to make Twilight about 200% more awesome.

Guys, sometimes I still - really - miss my show.

Good morning, internet.

Here is a link that songgirl12 sent me last night. NSFW. At all. But I dare you not to laugh so hard you cry.

Phone conversation last night:
sg12: Rule 34 is true!
