Dear Tumblr
I have not been around much lately, what with my studies at the College of Winterhold and adventuring around the country with my sidekick, Lydia. I’ve been checking in from time to time, but let me know if there’s anything important I should see. Otherwise, I’ll be off fighting dragons, killing undead, collecting flowers and capturing butterflies. Though I could be back sooner,...

So What I Was Thinking About With Canon Queer...
tripledrycap:
fyeahlilbitoeverything:
I think fandom plays a huge role in enjoying media. A HUGE role. And while I have issues with some of it (particularly when it comes to race or the treatment of female characters) I think shipping culture and slash fandom is just as big.
But, at the same time, downplaying the importance of canon queer characters just because there were existing characters...

I have to be honest, I’m not sure what we’re discussing here. I’ll take a guess, and if I’m wrong, please feel free to correct me.
First, I don’t have a LOT of feelings about fanfic one way or the other, to be honest. The feelings I do have are generally pretty positive. But it’s not something I spend much time thinking about or researching or anything.

Horror Vids
gwenfrankenstien:
I like vids and I like horror movies and sometimes the internet makes it so that I can like both at the same time
Black Water: Ginger Snaps vid by imbir at dreamwidth. TW: blood, violence (sexualised and otherwise), self-harm, suicide, animal harm, syringes, menstruation.
Club Foot: Corman/Price Poe Cycle vid by jetpack-monkey at LJ. TW: violence, a bit of blood (nothing like...

I hope the ship you hate becomes canon.
Sometimes I think “I hope the ship you loves becomes canon” is a worse curse. *cough*Buffy/Spike*cough*

The more that I follow Gail Simone on Tumblr, the more I want to go out and buy all the Secret Six. Ever. Like, rip a hole into the fabric of space/time just to go to alternate dimensions where the comic is still running and buy those trades.
And this is based entirely on the snippets I’ve seen posted on her Tumblr and on the Tumblrs of the folks that follow her.
Have you...

Dude, your posts got me to break out my old Sims 2 game. Damian got taken away by a social worker and Dick cried. :(

Peter David: Where I Stand On SOPA
Now I don’t pretend to understand all the ramifications of SOPA. I’ve read a lot about it. Read position papers on both sides. I’m fairly convinced that, yes, SOPA goes too far in its current language. It should not be passed in its present…
Oh, please. The internet didn’t create piracy. It’s...

On the eve of the protest black out, this is what your representatives opted to do. They announced they were unshelving SOPA next month. They’re counting on being able to slip it by, for the people they’re meant to serve to forget what is going on.

It's Just Like, UGH. There Are ALWAYS "Plans"
fyeahlilbitoeverything:
And these plans always get in the way of them appearing sooner. Cass doesn’t get to be in the Birds of Prey because they want to use her in Batman Inc. (for which while being grateful, amounted to literally two pages of panel time)…just ugh.
These plans Snyder is talking about had better be pretty damn spectacular.
And Bruce can be in six places at once, but they...

What I really don’t understand is - you have an Earth 2 book! (Or you will, rather.) If you want to write about Helena Wayne put her in that one!

comiccombatant replied to your post: Wait wait what?
It’s being billed like a team book, so I’m betting it’s Rose and Caitlin, along with two other villian-y “misfits.”
omg a Rose and Caitlin being girlfriends book! :D /that’s what I read from that at least…
I really hope they put Cassie on the team.

I wish this current Batman and Robin story arc would have been done with Red Hood instead of Nobody. It just would be a lot more resonant with Jason urging Damian to reject Batman’s code. It fits so well that I’m wondering if the storyline was originally conceived that way and then they created this new villain (he’s new, right?) because Red Hood isn’t available.

You have got to watch the stuff before the reboot! Do you know about the genesis of the Daleks? I don’t want to spoil you if you don’t, but this plays a huge role in why I’m so scared of them.
DO NOT!
Honestly, I doubt the really old stuff is going to appeal to me, and I’m just not interested...
