Het Pairings I Ship Like Burning
I love slash. This is a thing y'all know about me. But I was reading this post about [warning: sweeping generalization] fandom's general dismissal - if not outright dislike - of female characters, and it got me thinking about how and why I ship. The thing is, there are female characters that I love and het couples that I ship, but I usually don't ( Read more... ) -
Concert Pics
So, on Friday I went to see The Young Veins at the Martini Ranch in Scottsdale, and it was awesome! Bad Rabbits were hugely entertaining, The Young Veins were great, and I got to meet maple_mahogany, sneaky_sena, shihadchick, and katrin (and also Maple's sister, who was very cool, but not on LJ). It was fantastic to hang out with these ladies, and downright inspiring to see how much ( Read more... ) -
Not funny
Okay, this is a rant. It's a rant about transphobic humor, and I'm cutting it to spare those who've been the target of that kind of humor, not to spare people who don't think it's worth getting pissed about.
( No, Taco Bell, you didn't need to branch out from bad ethnic stereotypes to other forms of offensive humor. ) -
But That's Not Me
I’ve been following RaceFail 2009, but I haven't said much. I do have something to say. I lock most of my posts, but that kind of defeats the purpose here, so I'll leave this unlocked.

You may recall that I had intended to post for the entire festival of 14valentines. Well, I failed miserably at that, but February was still the most productive month I've had in a while. I put up 7 fics and 2 graphics posts. They consist of:

Ten Chick Flick Cliches That Aren't In He's Just Not That Into You
I was telling dancinbutterfly that I don't really want to see He's Just Not That Into You, but I'm tempted by the cast. Then I saw this video "Ten Chick Flick Cliches That Aren't In He's Just Not That Into You," and now I think I'm going to have to see it. Kevin Connolly, Justin Long, and Bradley Cooper, being adorable.

I just need to say
I've been really, really shitty to dancinbutterfly for a really, really long time, and she's accepted my apology for it. I just wanted to acknowledge publically that I've treated her badly. I'm really sorry.
I'm disabling comments, because I don't want anyone to try to reassure me. I'm in the wrong, and I know it. -
I am very shallow, but I'm still rasing an awesome son
So, it has come to my attention that I am really quite shallow. Watching Stargate: Atlantis on Friday, my overwhelming reaction had nothing to do with the plot or acting, but with David Hewlett's appearance. Is it just me, or is he actually getting hotter? Seriously, the haircut, the arms, the pissed-off yelling ... it all worked for me. Instance # ( Read more... ) -
