Bones, Links, Keep Your Hand At the Level of Your Eyes!

[lettered]

P.
tkp: So, I get why I watch Bones. I get why Mom watches Bones. Dad, why do you watch Bones?
tkDad: For the pretty--David Boreanaz!
tkMom: Omg! Slash! Squick, squick! Run away!
(tkMeta: Why we slash.
tkFandom: Slash, homosexuality, homophobia, pretty, and trauma.
tkFanom_wank: tkp and tkMom are arguing about sexuality! *takes pictures*)
tkMom: Alright, ok, Angelina Jolie is hot.
tkp: Angelina is peace. No wonder she's a politician.
tkDad: (stuck on Dave) Yeah, and besides being all hot, he seems cool. Like, I don't know what it is about him, but I think he's a cool guy.
(time passes)
tkMom: If they want us to think she's so clueless about pop culture how come she dresses so damn trendy?
(tkFic: *Brennan bashing*
*Goodman!voice smut*
*Brennan/Angela* because ZOMG, it should be written)

*coughs*

U. In other news, violaclaire had an interesting question about conscience in Jossverse, which I felt I couldn't answer adequately because I know nothing about sociology. I actually know very little about anything, despite the fact that I got a BA and thought I was smart.

N. (Got another rejection today).

J. Moving right along,
Victorian porn!

I don't know how this button got here,

Stolen from l_aurens.
Did y'all know that "TKP" are the initials of the Turkist Communist Party? (Türkiye Komünist Partisi (TKP)). Yes, friends, I am on wiki, like any famous fan.

A. Have you read an Arbiter of Quality review? angelbuffy0 was linking them for a while.
AoQ has not seen and is not spoiled for BtVS, and he's been making his way through each ep one at a time and is reviewing as he goes. He does NOT come at it from the POV of a fan who is already in love with the show, but someone who seems skeptical that the show is any good. As a result, his reviews are often critical. Sometimes he's right--yeah, Bad Eggs IS a lame ep. Sometimes it's vaguely upsetting--I hate his Cordy and X/C bashing. Sometimes you get a chance to feel superior--what, you think Amy-the-rat is a dropped thread? Just wait! Sometimes it's reaffirming--damn skippy "Innocence" is a badass ep! Most of the time, it's just plain fun to watch someone learn what BtVS is all about, how it works on you, how the characters grow and change. I don't agree with about half of his reviews, but I feel myself falling in love with BtVS again every time I read his opinion, whether it's positive or not. Also, he's pretty clever and funny (though ugh! He does take the Cordy bashing too far for his jokes about her to be pleasant.)

B. Meanwhile, in case you missed it, a bit ago rahirah informed fandom that these titles are off limits. Heed her or SPIKE WILL HUNT YOU DOWN. IN MANNER OF KEN DOLLS AND OZ. watch out the little people can be scary. Mwwahahahahahah!

N. My writing life isn't, but what I'm physically doing with myself is. I guess what I mean is I really wanted to go to grad school so I wouldn't have to get a job. I AM PITIFUL AND A BUM. I FREELY ADMIT THIS.

J. I've never really watched porn. Really! But I have seen a little bit, really soft core, and it did nothing for me.

Never seen that. I'm not sure how to do it. We should set a date on aim so we can just hash out what exactly we want to do and how we want to do it. Some time next week would be good as this weekend I'm kinda busy.

Next week sounds good, rather ambiguously of course.

I was going to go to grad school. But the more I looked into it, the more I disliked the academic language, specialized vocabulary and all that of lit academes, and I didn't see the point in an MFA, so I didn't. But it would be nice not to have a job.

I tried some old-school porn a few months ago, just to see if something with kind of a plot would help. But Mr. A got really really embarrassed so we turned it off.
