Okay, I came across a great article articulating Why We Love Captain Kirk. It puts it better than I ever could, both for the Shat and Pine versions. Click here for reading goodness.

Also, I have found it. What I believe to be the first ST:Reboot universe K/S slash vid. You know you wanna watch it. (Side note: I know that people love the 'name ( Read more... )

Yeah, I won't bother with the boring details that kept me away from my poor lj for two months. Suffice it to say, there was lots of work. And then computer breakage. Seriously computer breakage that happened more than once. And some things got erased. Like a finished fic. And a couple of papers. Not fun. But it is done now ( Read more... )

(Miss my lj like crazy. Unfortunately, it's not the purpose of this post.)

Special thanks you youngcurmudgeon for pointing me to this: you've all seen it, right?

It's freaking canon, people. Dumbledore/Grindelwald is canon. Which makes me hilariously happy in a way I did not expect it to ( Read more... )

Can someone please explain to me why the 21t birthday is essentially the one where all the adults decide that you truly have "grown up"? Am I really acting older? Wiser? More in control of my life? Hell, maybe. But it's still really funny to watch everyone get all squishy over it ( Read more... )

Well, this has been going around between everyone and their mom, so here's my go!

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.Okay, so the fandoms... Star Wars (feel free to go beyond movie characters if you are so inclined), Star Trek (TOS), LOTR, Harry Potter, Farscape, Battlestar ( Read more... )

You'll probably be seeing a few of those from me in the future because there are some fun ones out there lately, and I need something to distract me from the craziness of moving back home in a week. Most of them are writing-fandom related, so don't fret. But this one is because I was tagged ( Read more... )

Sorry for dissappearing again; if I owe anyone responses to anything, it's not because I don't love you. I've unfortunately had a nasty little arthritis attack in one wrist (disturbing, as that has not happened in a few years), and I've had to stop myself from typing too much as a result ( Read more... )

Okay, I've been trying to figure out how make a cool journal style using component. There's a comm on lj that helps you to do this (component_help, but I'm having the most ridiculous hard time with it. Let it never be said the HTML/CSS coding is my strong point. It think they've made it very easy and I'm just very dumb. Or something. But damnit, I want my own ( Read more... )

And it is a non-smoking area, according to GNeil and PTerry ( Read more... )

I need something interesting to write about.... Here we go:

Herodotus lies. All the time. Doesn't make The Histories a bad read in any sense, as long as you keep in mind that he is writing for a specific audience. Pour example: He claims that the pyramids were made of stone sailed across the Nile from Arabia. Which we all know is not true, since ( Read more... )
