Insomiac Theater

Does anyone still use this thing? I have been informed that fandom has Moved to Tumblr so I moved too but since I don't really make gif sets, I'm not entirely sure what to do there.

This situation is not helped by work being stupid, my commute being lengthy, and my niece and nephew being super adorable and interesting.

So what up, LJ?

Still here but things keep getting quieter.

Agreed. I do so much on my phone lately, mostly because I don't want to look at a computer after work and tumblr has the advantage of working really well on the phone, but I've not had much luck with interaction. To be fair, it would probably help if I took less than a month to answer things.

Ha, yes. I'm not sure I could SEE a cellphone screen well enough to do anything internetty. Nice big monitor for me. But I can see how you'd want a break from 'em after work.

I'm still here! Tumblr isn't my thing at all, and there are still enough people on my flist that I'm not feeling lonely. :)

Yay! That's good! How's life? What fandom are you into now? The LJ app is a pain to use and I just haven't been using my computer as much as I used to. :P

Life is pretty crazy at the moment! Work has turned both busy and frustrating, and in a few weeks I'm going to start online classes for a new degree on top of that. But I'm determined not to let it get in the way of fandom. :)

My main fandom is Grimm, but I'm also still into MCU (mostly the Bucky parts) and X-Men (Magneto, comics and movies both). There are other things, but those are the main ones right now. How about you?

I am mostly into Avengers, also often in parts that have to do with Bucky, but also parts that have to do with Natasha and/or Steve. (Or all of them!) I also started scribbling a lot of stuff in 00Q - James Bond/Q in the Daniel Craig subset of Bond movies - but never really finished anything.

Howdy! I'm on Tumblr but I feel there's no way to keep up so I just kind of browse when I want to see pretty pictures. Awww, SG-1! I haz feels.

Work is being frustrating, because other people in my organization seem to be incapable of meeting deadlines. Big event might happen on Friday, might slip.

Ollie continues to be adorable and marvelous, and otherwise Star Wars consumes my imagination.

How goes Bond/Q shenanigans???

Hello! I feel you about work. I am balancing a couple of possible options and it's a bit awkward.

Marlowe was sick for a bit last week but he is better now. The tiny floofs continue to charm - well, charm me, not Marlowe.

I am slacking pathetically on Bond/Q. I dug out an adult coloring book I bought several months ago and am using it to detach from various stress (work, Grandmom in the hospital again, etc.)

Hello!!

There is still some of fandom left over here (though maybe more on DW, and crossposting). I'm not on Tumblr at all, yet; I just couldn't work it out.

Hello!!!

I mostly crosspost from DW too, though I have recently found that I do most internet things on my phone these days and there is no DW app. There is an LJ app (from which I posted the original post) but answering comments on it is a PITA. I'm on Tumblr in terms of I look at things and occasionally like things and even more occasionally reblog things. But I rarely post content because I do not gif and that makes me feel detached.

What are you into these days? I am kind of too scattered to focus on anything but I'm mostly reading about the Marvel Movieverse and the Daniel Craig James Bond films, and occasionally thinking, "Aw, I should write Weir/Sumner or Rossi/Prentiss!" And then I don't. :)
