 OH GOD SO MUCH PROCRASTINATING. It's not even anything important or hard, like a paper. I just really don't feel like working at all, even thought I know these workshop comments will only take me a little while.

Name a fandom and I'll tell you 3 pairings I love, ( Read more... )

Reading Wilkie Collin's The Woman in White for my Victorian Sex class, I have to wonder if there were Victorian fangirls reading this in the 1850s when it was being serialized who shipped Walter/Marian as much as I do right now. Because blah blah blah Laura is the innocent perfect angel of his worldly delight whatever, I don't give a damn. Marian ( Read more... )

6 Songs That Are Fannish, and 1 That's Just Good

1. Blackbird by Ellis

I drove a hundred miles down an hour down the mountainside

On Firefly ships:

masterofmidgets : Simon/Inara? That would be...so polite
telyanofcelore: Inara/Jayne? Um...
masterofmidgets: the most demure sex scenes imaginable
masterofmidgets: oh god, Inara/Jayne with really Dom Inara would be win
telyanofcelore: It would have to have really Dom Inara.
telyanofcelore: I... have trouble imagining a scenario in which this comes about, though

I'm not in the Due South fandom - obviously, since I watched the first episode last night - so I'm going to assume that somewhere on the internets, someone has made a fanvid about Benton Fraser to The Arrogant Worms' song Canadaman. But if they haven't, then this is a terrible travesty that ought to rectified immediately. Because...well, c'mon! ( ( Read more... )

Excuse me, but this is California! It is April! Why is the weather not stunningly balmy and gorgeous? If I wanted fifty mph winds, I could have stayed home in New Mexico, thank you.
