I'm a lazy slacker, but....
I did pop two of the parcels I promised you lovely people out in the mail, so heron61 and flyboy_fox should be receiving their thingies soon. Don't worry about the postage, guys; it was stupidly cheap, both packages came to like £5, so I'm not going to bother and neither should you. Still have to price doujins for shininghalf; if that's anything to go by the shipping may not ( Read more... ) -
Free stuff!
I own far, far too much stuff. Having a Buddhist moment and deciding to get rid of vast amounts of it; I don't use it, and ideally I'd like to live with little enough stuff that I can travel easily without having to worry about lots of packing ( Read more... ) -
o hai, massive flist purge
So because I don't come around here that much any more, I'm trying to trim down my reading list so that it's not quite so overwhelming. If I don't feel like we really know each other very much any more, or I've completely forgotten why you were actually on here in the first place, or something similarly lame, you've probably been cut. And it almost ( Read more... ) -
*ba-bum TSH*
...you know, I was wondering what all that talk about Obama being "President-Elect" was; I'd never heard the term before until I looked it up. Apparently it just means he's not officially in office yet because he hasn't been inaugurated. I'd been thinking it was a dig at how America didn't actually elect its last president.

Sometimes what we need isn't debate. Sometimes, what we need is to hear that someone cares.
Something that I feel should be passed around for the benefit of those affected by Prop 8's probable passing. Please link this wherever you can; amidst all the political mudslinging from both sides it's a simple and powerful statement that needs to be heard.
And here's an encouraging link for those on the anti-8 side, too ( Read more... ) -
SEAL OF OM NOM NOMPROVAL
Veggie Scotch eggs taste-tasted and found, quite frankly, to be identical to the meat-based kind. V. v. pleased. Actually, they also taste just a tiny bit like savoury ducks, which made me nostalgic enough for my childhood that I had to go and look them up to see if they were vegetarian-safe (they always tasted mostly like roasted Christmas ( Read more... ) -
I think this icon sums up the two halves of this post brilliantly.
So today, I discovered that my last regret as a vegetarian has been resolved by the wonderful people at Quorn, to whom I extend my most obsequiously profusive expressions of undying gratitude: veggie Scotch eggs exist. Given that they were really the last thing I missed after going going veggie, I am insanely pleased by this; they were a staple of ( Read more... ) -
is this awesome y/n
So this? Technically awesome. I mean, it's FFVI characters in 3D, controllable, and specifically it's Esper!Terra in 3D, and the part of my childhood brainstem that's hooked on the etherealness and alien wonder that is Esper!Terra - the transformation into this lightlike being of magic, the liminality of being half-human, half otherworldly entity ( Read more... ) -
...before it's too late.
I'm having trouble working out how to say this without sounding preachy, or overbearing, or otherwise turning people off. As such, I hope that you'll trust in me for a little while, and bear with me while I try to make a statement that I think is important ( Read more... )
