The Camp Granada tune is actually by Amilcare Ponchielli, from his 'Dance of the Hours' :}. If that helps! /dork

I just hope it's as fun as Assault on Arkham. Probably won't be though.

Text: "You are rich, famous, and by all appearances a halfway-decent person
but
Vocal sections of your fandom are obnoxious, embarrassing, scary, and other horrible things"

I hope these kinds of celebs have found good ways to handle it in private, not just in public.

Well, any motivation can be good motivation! If you haven't started already, it might be good to give a try. Reading comics sounds like a pretty fun way to learn.

Hear, hear. The Wizard of Oz movie always bored me (the books were pretty cool!), but I loved her in this film.

Now the Trolley Song will be stuck in my head for the next week...

I made my first LJ account to join an embarrassing fandom. I’ve been out of that fandom for years, and the comm’s dead to me. I want to delete it, but I posted one fic: a crossover with a fandom I’m not ashamed of, the only one I’m aware of. It was a rushed one-shot, could have been better. That and the old shame fandom are why I won’t orphan it on AO3 or something like that. But some people commented and liked it. And since it’s a rare crossover, I want to give time in case anyone wants to save it. I know the disappointment of deleted fic.

I read that fic too.

Honestly, despite how "bad" everyone said it was, I just found it really over the top.

It's kind of funny to me that you had that reaction, though. Because I'm in a similar position: I have really small breasts that I'm hugely self-conscious about.

I suppose the only reason that I didn't try any of those enlarging options is that I knew they wouldn't work and so I didn't want to waste the money.

But I feel you OP. One of the ways I can easily tell that fic is written by dudes is how much focus there is on breasts and how they're often massive.

It sucks in a lot of ways because while I know not every guy prefers large breasts, it IS a MUCH more common in my culture and I always worry that anyone I get with is just going to be settling.

Of course, I've never put that theory to the test since I've never had a boyfriend.

Text: It would warm my heart for the fandoms I’ve been around to witness to be enjoyed, sincerely or not, by future fans. Not just the canon! Reclists, archived comms, fanart, whatever. It would warm my heart even more if they just *know* we did it (mostly) out of love.
And if they try to put historical details into fic...bless those sweet, hilarious future fans.

Is this Amazing Electric Dreamcoat with Donny Osmond? I've always wanted to see that.

She is less mean, without losing her "Morrigan-ness," which is what I particularly like about her in DAI.

Oooh this outta be fun.

Personally I don't have a problem with characters drawn as other races or whatever.
It can be pretty interesting when done well, and at the end of the day it's just fanart. If you don't like it, don't go looking for it. Boom. Promblm solved.
Whitewashing actual non-white characters still kinda annoys me and puts a bad taste in my mouth. :/ Mostly because from my experience, every artist who did this was (surprise!) pretty racist and not very likable.
I understand why people would be annoyed with drawing Rose skinny, but it crosses the line when the same people then declare that nobody skinny can cosplay her. At that point I just start rolling my eyes.

Bullshit, he did.

God, saying shit like that makes me so mad. Not about this specific issue - I mean it really pisses me off any time someone tries to take some weird, fringe-y position or interpretation and then just treats it like it's established fact.

It's by no means clear that ACD did that. Sorry. Nope.
