To everyone: merry Christmas, happy holidays, or just nice last Friday of December, whichever feels the best for you! This year has been a long, difficult one, but I hope we all can find some hope and comfort, whether in connection to the midwinter holidays or something else.

I am well, and well-fed, and things are peaceful here.

Also, it's Yuletide ( Read more... )

I am around! I know I haven't posted anything but my Yuletide letter in the recent months. I'm sorry about that, I haven't forgotten this place and I hope nobody's been worried, given the year we're having. I've been fine, and so have the people close to me. Just cooped up and isolated, as I'm sure we all know. This disappearance of mine wasn't ( Read more... )

Dear Yuletide writer,

Thank you for offering to write whichever of these rare fandoms we matched on! Sorry it took me a while to get the full letter up. I’m also sorry it’s anything but concise - that’s not why it took me so long to finish - rather, it’s the case that when I got myself organized enough to write this, I wrote a lot.

First, I’m into a ( Read more... )

Okay, folks, time for one of these again! Basically just books and podcasts, I haven't engaged with any other culture recently, other than the occasional music.

Books

Since the last, I finished the utterly delightful Dragon Pearl by Yoon Ha Lee, which I was reading at the time. I absolutely loved it, and the ending surprised me and was very different ( Read more... )

Surfacing to say that I just finished listening to the last Juno Steel story of the Season 2 of the Penumbra Podcast, ie. Juno Steel and the Soul of the People.

Pardon me. I am having an Emotion.

(Season Two: It's a long, arduous journey and there are some dark places on the way, but oh, it's so worth it.)

(Not quite finished with the entire Season ( Read more... )

Oh, hello, hello. I am still around, and healthy and well and all, I'm just kind of bad at getting around to doing things, so this journal has suffered as a result. I've thought about posting on many days, but turns out just thinking about it doesn't make it happen!

But here, let's have that my recent culture round-up (maybe I need to call it that ( Read more... )

A note: sorry I'm taking quite a while replying to all the character meme prompts - I will get to them! Just turns out I'm a bit slow at doing it, and lately I've had a lot of RL things going on. Not in a bad way, just in the "have a lot to do" kind of way.

But let's try to do the culture consumed thingie now! On a Wednesday, too, so it sort of ( Read more... )

I just listened to the second-to-last episode of the Wolf 359 Season 3 tonight.

Well, that was not restful.

*cuddles self*

(I'm not saying anything more spoilery than this in the post, but if someone comments, there might be spoilery discussions. Just saying.)

Well, I rather could tell it wouldn't be restful, but the whole second half of the season has ( Read more... )

Okay, I've been meaning to manage these "culture consumed" posts for a while. Seriously, I'm probably just going to have to go back to trying to do a Reading Wednesday and then pick other days for doing other forms of culture because I apparently find it too much work to list them all at once. And then I delay for weeks and then it especially is ( Read more... )
