Yo. *awkward wave*

Life is busy, work is frantic, and while my brain wants to watch about 20 different new things and read a bunch of books and write fanfic and original fic... none of that keeps happening? I just sit and read Tumblr and rewatch "Arrow" over and over and then it's time to go to bed? It's frustrating.

I need to do something because I ( Read more... )

It wasn't even the kinkiness that bothered me, it's the weeping. And it started with Oliver/Felicity/Sara, which I could get into if 1) it wasn't so hardcore BDSM and b) it basically was a set up, it turns out, that Sara was cheating on Oliver and the author intended the whole time for Oliver and Felicity to find true love and it be okay because hey, Sara was already moving on. UGH. Also Felicity is being stalked on top of everything and doing stupid shit every few chapters. Just, argh. I did unsubscribe finally. Huzzah.

I need to watch Sense8 too. The list keeps getting longer.

*holds hand up* I don't care about the X-Files reboot. I was with the show to the end (well, mostly...I checked out during S7, came back in S8 because I fell hard for Doggett, then skipped about half of S9 because even he couldn't save it for me) but I just...have no desire to see the horse brought back from the dead and beaten some more. So, yeah, you're not alone. *g*

Woo! Good to know I'm not the only one. I think I've been burned too many times by things being rebooted at this point too. I don't want to get my hopes up for anything.

ZERO interest in the DC stuff or Antman, but LOVED Mad Max: Fury Road.

I'm...kinda excited about the X-Files reboot? But I'm going in with severely low expectations. Like, down on the ground low expectations. As long as Scully says 'Mulder?' and Mulder yells 'Scully!' I'll probably be satisfied.

I have gotten SO picky in my fic-reading. I just don't have the time or the stamina to take some storylines and I get bored? I don't know. It's hard finding really good stuff by just searching tags on AO3.

I hope things get a bit more chill soon!

Yup. Now I'm find an author who's halfway decent and then reading all their stuff instead of just looking at what's posted, but when I started reading both of these I was just "GIVE IT ALL TO ME!" and I need a break.

The "I will read anything" mode. I know it well. When you think you have read everything good and are now scraping the bottom of the barrel just because you need MORE MORE MORE of the OTP. Sigh. Sometimes, there are good fics in there. But not often.

I, too, am failing my geek cred in regards to Orphan Black. I just. A part of me found the first season like the most amazing thing, and I don't trust tv people to be amazing more than once (Revenge. I am still bitter over you).

X-Files as a reboot/continuation sort of fascinates me. It always hit my partners kink and I assume this may, too. If it doesn't, no real loss. It's not like Chris Carter ever had a plan in the first place.

The one reboot/continuation I'm looking forward to with fangirly squealyness is the Ghostbusters remake that's all-female (at least, the GB team is all-female).

"I don't trust tv people to be amazing more than once"

man if that is just not the summary of me & every show at this point. Except Agent Carter. I have faith in Agent Carter. ;)
