General Conversation
I've really been struggling with my online presence lately, and I think that's part of the reason I haven't been posting much. Not only am I uncomfortable with data scraping by LJ and other host forums, but I also ran afoul of a group of way-too-invested fan girls/stalkers and had to deal with that joyous experience last year. Between the two, I ( Read more... ) -
He Hears The Secrets That I Keep
More accurately, Mr. Malice hears the random weird shit I say in my sleep, but The Romantics never wrote a song about that. According to my amused spouse, two of the apropos-of-nothing tidbits I've offered up lately are: "Nazis slipped something in my bag!" and "It's a Rube Goldberg machine."
...Which just goes to show that even I don't know what I ( Read more... ) -
Tell Me Something Good
I feel like a lot of my journal lately is just griping. I don't want to be that person, so I'm making a special effort to post something positive and I'd like to invite everyone to join in. Let's take a minute to think positively about ourselves and celebrate our successes, even if they're small...perhaps particularly if they're small. Because they ( Read more... ) -
♫ Nants ingonyama bagithi baba ♫
Hi. Long time, no type. Sorry to take another breather again so soon, but my grandmother died under difficult circumstances on Christmas Eve. I'm sorry she's gone, though I know she's been ready to go for awhile...she literally said so the week before she passed. So, although I'm glad for her, I'm still sad. Knowing I'll never have the chance to ( Read more... ) -
Thirsty Thursday: Karl Urban
(It's after midnight and technically Friday, but the rule is that if I haven't been to sleep yet, it's still the previous day.)
By request, this week's honoree is none other than Karl Urban. Although he's probably best known to American audiences as Bones "Lady Boner" McCoy in the "Star Trek" reboot, he's also been part of the Lord of the Rings ( Read more... ) -
This is an abomination.
Just because you have the capacity to do something doesn't mean you should. Speaking of which, you guys have heard that they're going to create a CGI version of James Dean to star in a new movie, right?

Thirsty Thursday: Michael Ealy
Intelligent...? Check.
Socially conscious...? Check.
Talented...? Triple check.
Square jaw...? Oui, check.
Striking eyes...? Hell yeah, check.
Abs tighter than your great-aunt's pocketbook...? SO. MUCH. CHECK.
Although he appeared in both the phenomenal For Colored Girls and a recent remake of the cult classic Jacob's Ladder, Michael Ealy is ( Read more... ) -
What's Your Go-To Happy Song?
The weather is changing and temperatures are falling in my part of the world, so you know what that means...seasonal affective disorder. I'm getting out ahead of it this year in an effort to minimize the psychological effects of saying goodbye to the sun for the next four months or so and, to that end, I'm collating a "Winter is Killing Me (But I'm ( Read more... ) -
Thirsty Thursday: Tom Hardy
Tom "Hardman" Hardy is this week's Thirsty Thursday honoree. Some people may not care for his eccentricities, but personality has nothing to do with Thirsty Thursday, folks. This is about good, old-fashioned, venal objectification, and just check out the chiseled jaw, generous lips, and poppin' pecs on this mofo. And, as if his physique weren't ( Read more... )
