Know this going in, people, this is going to be another not necessarily sad but weary post about how most things suck. Forewarned is forearmed ( Read more... )

Happy New Year, kids. It's been '09 out here for an hour and a half at this point, and I'm wearing a red tank top that looks so good on me I'm considering hitting on myself ( Read more... )

So I was thinking. I heard something, a little while ago, don't remember where, may have been on the Daily Show, about newspapers -- the honest to god, old skool publications, like the New York Times and others -- going out of business. That fewer and fewer people buy them and fewer and fewer people prescribe to them. Then I read something on my ( Read more... )

So this bandflesh thing. I'm going to be honest with you, when I first heard it had been hacked I laughed about it and thought it was pretty funny. But then I heard it had been deleted and then it kind of stopped being funny a little bit. What the hell is the point of hacking something just to delete it, is my question?

I've been reading fanfiction for about three and a half years now, and as you can tell, I'm ridiculously in love with it all.

Now, I'm violently opposed to organized religion -- violent in the sense that I kind of want to slap the Pope/various religious leaders upside the head for being ( Read more... )

Okay, that's it. I am officially a fan of the Misfits. They've done a cover-ish thing of Runaway. ♥_____ ( Read more... )

I feel like I've been spamming a lot the last couple of days and I'm sorry about that. I feel like I'm living on nervous energy right now -- people keep asking me questions I don't want to answer and I have to do something I really wish I didn't have to.

Anyway, the point of this post is this: thematchesfic. Brand new fic (and more) comm for The Matches that ( Read more... )

All this talk of tattoos on my flist has inspired me a lot, and now I REALLY want that fucking tattoo I've been putting off doing for YEARS. Rebecca and I went to look for inspiration online just a while ago (she liked the idea of evil pumpkins, a la Frank Iero, for example) and I found this.
