Please Don't Repost My Stuff
Borrowing this from I don't know how many others:
Please don't use any of my entries, whether public or private, on your Facebook or Twitter account. I will not and do not give permission for it. If I find something I posted on your account, I will ask you to remove it.
This will likely not change in the future as I'm highly uncomfortable with the ( Read more... ) -
Help Pakistan
For those interested, one of my fellow mods, jane_elliot , has generously offered to host a rec-a-thon at epic_recs for the charity auction at the help_pakistan community. Bidding starts at $5 USD. The more bids, the more recs.
I'll be participating during the event with Jane, so anyone who bids will have double (if not more, depending on who else volunteers) the recs for the ( Read more... ) -
Old Zines
I've been wondering about the appropriateness of scanning and/or transcribing my old out-of-print zines lately -- is it appropriate to do? Should I only do it if I have permission? If I can't get permission from the author for whatever reason, should I leave out their story?
I just don't know the answers to any of those. I love the idea of being ( Read more... ) -
Cheer me up, buttercup
These last few days have been extremely stressful. Between issues with the house, illness, and trying to catch up on work, I feel absolutely brain fried. The worst part is that I just came back from an impromptu vacation, which turned into a nightmare, and can't take another one for several more months. Not that I'm sure I even want to take another ( Read more... ) -

Stress, Thy Name is Prentice
The last few days have been stressful as hell. My mother managed to get a concussion and has been having dizzy spells, which means I'm having to keep an eye on her (not that I mind but it's worrying), my nephew is ill (not seriously so but again, worrying), I managed to sprain my ankle badly enough that I feel absolutely queasy all the time, and to ( Read more... ) -
The problem with gaming and being anti-social/female/out of the loop...
You know, way back when, I used to be a "hardcore" gamer. I had all the new systems, played all the new games, and could tell you a good game from a bad game. I was excited for E3 and couldn't fucking wait for the next roll out of games. Now however...every goddamn game out there seems to rely on you being "live" with other gamers and you know what ( Read more... )
