It is possible I might have spent most of the day screaming at tumblr while I tried to customise it to fulfil my desires.

I now have two tumblrs - one for creativity and inspiration, and one for fandom. So if you have a tumblr, come follow me! And let me know what yours is so I can follow you!

This Is Noir - a tumblr of inspirational writing, ( Read more... )

Yahoo Trying To Unload Del.icio.us, Not Shut It DownOMG YES ( Read more... )

Don't you think it's kind of ironic that people are delicious bookmarking posts about delicious shutting? Or is this some kind of stealth campaign?

ETA: Someone has started a petition to ask Yahoo! to make delicious open source. You can go sign it here.

ETA 2: Electric Bugaloo And another one here.

Firstly, gqmfkgfkkajkfskanlkasfskagh.

Secondly, though I know I will be burned with hellfire for saying it, the trailer for the US adaptation of Let the Right One In actually looks pretty awesome. I loved Chloe Moretz in Kick-Ass, so I was happily surprised to see her in this. Interesting how in the US version the hair colours are switched - the ( Read more... )

...that I'd like to be better about posting. I'm really bad at it. So, I thought, 'what am I good at that I can post about?', and the answer is recommending fic. So, the plan: I'm going to try to recommend one fic every day.

I won't necessarily have read it recently - I have a massive back-catalogue of saved links on my delicious. But I will have ( Read more... )

Some very kind people let me know that track 11 of the fanmix I posted yesterday is corrupted, so I've reuploaded the song separately. During the week I have really limited internet access, so reloading the whole mix would have been very, very difficult.

You can find the reuploaded track here, at Sendspace. If it doesn't work, please let me know ( Read more... )

A Kirk/Spock nu!Trek fanmix

ETA: Some very kind people let me know that track 11 of the original .zip is corrupted. Dang. I've reuploaded the song in question since my internet during the week is a bit iffy, so anyone who wants it, you can find it here. Sorry *double facepalm*

Got this link through delicious - a short film made entirely of nearly 15,000 still shots run together to make what is, in effect, a stop motion movie starring Zachary Quinto running around first his home and then the set of Heroes. Not only is it visually clever - the shots are taken close enough together that it's not jerky, but far enough apart ( Read more... )

I'm the first to admit that I'm not very plugged in to the discussions side of fandom. I'm a lurker by nature and always have been - I came for the fic, and stayed. So when big wanks blow up, I'm usually the last to know, and have to dig around to find out what's been going on ( Read more... )

I've been trying to decide what I wanted to say about the new Star Trek movie for almost a week now. This is for two main reasons - one, I have resolved that I should make both more frequent and more meaningful (aka more discussion, less boring) posts , and two, BECAUSE IT IS TOTALLY FRIGGING AWESOME AND IT BLEW MY MIND OMG!!!

( Here there be spoilers, aka, you should totally see the film first )
