Hi, I have a racist question for you
So, Spain. You know, that country in the southwest of Europe. Sevillanas, flamenco, that kind of thing. Are we considered people of color in the United States? What about Italy and Greece? Because, let's face it, I've always thought that we were mostly Caucasian. With Arab, Jewish, Roman, Greek, Fenician, Gypsy, Goth, Celtic and Iberian blood ( Read more... ) -
Feelings and fandom, fandom and feelings
I have a serious love/hate relationship with Tumblr. Mainly because there are awesome people there posting and reblogging very interesting stuff AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT'S HAPPENING IN TUMBLR INSTEAD OF LIVEJOURNAL, because LJ may suck in many aspects, but it's still built for interaction and community AND TUMBLR MOST DECIDEDLY IS NOT. And I ( Read more... ) -
This is war!

Mad Max 2015
Let's face it, I went to the cinema to watch Mad Max: Fury Road for three reasons:
a) I had free tickets.
b) I'm obsessed with Tom Hardy.
c) There was this strange uproar about it being a feminist movie and I was intrigued.
I'll hide my opinion under the cut because I guess it's the polite thing to do when you write things of a certain length.

Furthermore, she's holding a give-away of some of her previous works, so if you want to sample her writing for free, here's the link with the information (it's just about sharing ( Read more... ) -
FIC, FIC, FIC!!! (Saiyuki)
I don't tend to repost my comment!fics because I usually think they are just, well, comment!fics, but this one developed a life of its own and became rather lengthy. Also, for some reason I like it, so I wanted to post it, ehm, "oficially" or something. So, here it is.

Prompts
Okay, I know I suck in many ways, but still, prompts? You know my fandoms, you know the drill... prompt me with a pairing and... you know, whatever hits your fancy. Or something. I might be a little bit tipsy right now. But anyway, prompts, anyone?

Shitty day
Today has been shit. Utter and complete shit. And I think that the thing I hate the most about this day is that Terry Pratchett has died. And usually I don't give a fuck about people I don't know personally, but Terry Pratchett has done a lot for me and for mankind. His books are incredible, not because of the stories per se, but for how they were ( Read more... ) -
Okay, guys...
I'm extending the voting phase because there hasn't been too many votes yet. Also, because I'm a lazy ass. But mainly because I'd love it if more people cast their vote. So, people, cast your vote, please!! *eloquent Lauand is eloquent*
