As I was drifting off to sleep last night, I realized something about my dissatisfaction with s6 of SPN so far. It's a matter of genre and expectations. ( tl;dr with vague spoilers for what's aired )

So there's this SPN s6 casting spoiler. ( cut because even the link text is spoily )

I haven't participated in the id-fic meme-thing because 1. ridiculously busy with work and remix, and 2. because we all know my id contains SEKRIT INCEST BABIES so I don't know that there's much else to say. *snerk* (Here is a good explanation of what I'm talking about.)

I suppose I will start looking at new layouts when I get home tonight. Or sooner, if it really starts to bug me ( Read more... )

I can't stop listening to Daylight by Matt & Kim. It's a little gem of pure pop perfection and I can't get enough. Thank you to whoever it was I snagged it from (I feel like it was probably hackthis, since so much of the music I end up loving comes from her).

As a bonus, since I uploaded it for my niece, If I Can't Change Your Mind by Sugar, which is one ( Read more... )

When I was all excited and squeeful about Bela in season 3 of SPN, I had to put up with people repeatedly slagging off on her my comments, even after I specifically and repeatedly asked people not to. It annoyed me, but I still enjoyed the character a lot and wanted to talk about her. So I did. (and I would be willing to bet that if I didn't make ( Read more... )
