I, er, didn’t notice either of them, but I’m so far south I’m practically in Mexico.

Re: People in the California earthquakes please check in here.

[rosehiptea]

I felt both of them, especially the second one, but nothing happened around here except one or two items falling off the shelves in the grocery store. I'm concerned for the people that live closer though.

I felt both and just watched everything in my room rattle, but nothing fell.

(In the UK and *not* in the US)

I think classism is a longer running and bigger problem than racism in this country. I also think that the class divide is what drives racism here. We have lots of very, *very* poor areas that have been ignored by the government for decades. People without hope or a future look for someone to blame and are an easy target for people like Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson.

Bonus unpopular opinion: That kind of poverty driven prejudice is pan-humanity and not just a 'white' thing. It's just happening in a majority white country on this occasion.

I wish US Americans would stop trying to push their own country's racial issues into discussions of diversity in non-American fandoms. Not every country's biggest minority is black people. In some countries, media representation of, for example, middle eastern people is more important.

I also think black Americans should stop trying to retroactively claim historical figures as black when they weren't.

I like the standard fantasy setting and tropes a lot. I like variety in settings too. But I like the original. I never get tired of it. The one thing I'd pay good money for is all the original tropes but reversed with women in the male roles and men in the women roles (of course with some variety thrown in and gay relationships as a plus). Mostly because I never wanted to be the princess. I always wanted to be the hero with the sword, fighting the dragon and saving the day and rescuing the boy.

The first fight scene in Highlander, in the parking garage at Madison Square Garden is really horribly choreographed and kind of ridiculous.

It's like, congratulations to people have casual sex, you know? Good for you. Good job. I hope you're happy.

Purple grape juice tastes better than white grape juice.

It's probably not that unpopular of an opinion but I had someone tell me that "everyone" thinks the white grape juice is better like I had just said something ridiculous.

If you ask me, they oughta make cocaine illegal

I'm completely in favor of medical marijuana. But I'm not sure I'm in favor of recreational marijuana. Decriminalizing to a certain extent yes because I don't think people should go to prison for smoking marijuana or even growing it or selling. But making it completely legal? I don't think I'm in favor of that.

Faves are Culvers because their veggie burgers are amazing, and Lee Ann Chin's (but not the one in Fargo).

Least fave are Taco Bell because it always gave me the runs and KFC because everything is so incredibly salty.

"Wasted potential"

[(Anonymous)]

Here's something I've been wondering for a while. What does it mean to you to say that a character had "wasted potential"? I see it said a lot about minor characters that someone thinks should have had a bigger role, but it always sounds like what they wanted would have been something totally different from what the writers had in mind, and the story as-is did just fine without that character doing anything special. What do you think is the difference between that and actual wasted potential?

There was a pretty big one last night while I was at a Brit Floyd concert. We thought it was part of the show at first, then it totally wasn't. It was all very surreal.
