If fanfic has the power to meaningfully diminish the characters you say you've worked so hard on, your novel has more problems than the marginal possibility that someone might write porn about it.

also oh shit i forgot that icon was so mean. Accept my apology, anon. I don't mean to give off an air of ill intentions.

I WANT BOTH. Dream big.

This is so me too. I have a Tumblr, but I just don't get it. All I do is post pictures, and there's no interaction with people like on LJ. It's just stupid and I feel out of the loop.

Okay, I can kind of see their relationship either way, but this made me lol for real. Ew.

Don't be ashamed! I'm working on my MA in Lit now and I'm so discouraged by the PhD students seeming like they have ZERO interests outside of academia. It makes me feel like I can't be a dorky fangirl AND an academic. Be proud of your weird! You might inspire someone. :)

I think that movie adaptation was Carrol's idea of hell.

But given that Dodgson was painfully shy around adults, he may have found tea parties very agitating and hellacious. I rather think that he would have used a stodgy adult dinner party if that's what he was going for, though. He seems to use the tea party as an exercise in childlike absurdity.

Every time I go on there I convince myself that it's just stupid and confusing for everybody and that it's not my fault and then I go to sleep and have night terrors about how this is the first step in losing my youth and how I am spiraling into obsolete old age and shit.

Well, what's wrong with that? The series is based off of books set in England, with white male characters all around. If you're going to criticize anything, criticize the books.

So, now, if/when a steampunk Hamlet, everyone's going to know it's you and dismiss you as a troll? I don't understand authors posting about their WIPs telling the fandom of their trollan. When your work actually comes out, that means they're going to know, and you're basically just shooting your own fun in the head.

Really, guys. Invest in some logic.

[identity profile] jewelia13.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOO! (Sorry. >.>)

If I had to cast Crowley... I'd probably end up picking Mark Sheppard (I can't remember if his last name has one or two "p"s), and Julian Sands as Aziraphale. (Yeah, I know, dream on lol.)

TUMBLR IS A LONELY PLACE

(Anonymous) 2011-03-17 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Timely secret! I just started a tumblr about my fandom the other day (magical girl animu) but so far NO1CURR, nobody seems to have noticed it yet, and I am super lonely and disappointed because I put a lot of work into getting it ready.

So I HATE YOU TUMBLR

[identity profile] theditz.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, but there is a big chance your book is not going to be popular. Chances are it won't have a fandom. So I wouldn't worry too much about that. If it still bothers you, then I suggest you don't publish it.

I like some of his music, but I can admit that a lot of the lyrics are sexist and offensive. But just because it's offensive doesn't mean I can't enjoy it.

You can recognize the shitty things about something and yet still be a fan.

So yeah, if you had said you were a fan and recognized that he can be pretty offensive and sexist yet you still love his music, that would have been cool. But the fact that you can't see it at all? Yeah, you might be that "bad feminist" you speak of.

I got into Merlin after seeing Sherlock, and I've always been struck by how similar they are. You are not alone.

[identity profile] damnated.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not the OP, so I can't know for sure. But it sounded like those were just two unrelated thoughts that got together in the same secret.

Otherwise I have no idea what they meant either.

[identity profile] obstinatrix.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree with you on all of this, although I did have a moment's o.O about the fact that they made Moriarty Irish. And a terrorist. Oops.

[identity profile] odontv.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
WE SHOULD ALL GET TOGETHER ON TUMBLR AND TUMBL SHIT ABOUT HOW CONFUSED WE ARE. IS THAT WHAT IT'S CALLED. TUMBLING. BLOGGING. POSTING. TWEETLRING.

Word of God says she's coming back. Wish granted, Anon. :Db

Too young. Too many mindless fangirls.

Someone mentioned David Tennant, which is a little better but still strikes me as not quite right.

I'm hoping for a relative unknown, just because I can't imagine anyone I can think of being just right...

The video game industry has two main threats to it right now: used games, and pirating. In regards to used games, when you go to Gamestop and you purchase a game used, do you know who gets 100% of the profit off that game? Gamestop. Those who actually produced the game get absolutely nothing. Put that in with the fact that Gamestop still gets a fraction of the sales off new games, and all of the people that pirate . . .

Video game companies aren't like musicians. They don't have live shows to get large sums of money from. All they have are new game sales. Considering how expensive it is just to make one game, not to mention localize it, and you have industries that are going downhill fast. Namco-Bandai is EXTREMELY close to going under. The money-hungry companies like Activision are snapping up companies left and right, but other companies like Nintendo and Sony are flipping out and either region-locking everything with threat of bricking or filing lawsuits against everyone they can find. Why? Because they don't want to go under. They don't want to be like Namco-Bandai, who laid off thousands of workers because they couldn't afford to pay them anymore, nor do they want to be like Sega, who pretty much lost everything way back when.

I'm sorry OP, but I can't feel bad for you. I agree that the region-locking on the 3DS sucks because I really want to play the Tales of the Abyss port, but I can't support video game piracy at all. Not when video games mean so much to me, not when that's an industry I want to go into (in the localization department), and not when the industry itself is hurting so much right now from the likes of Gamestop and piracy.

the whole R/Hr "IS SHE REALLY GOING OUUUUUT WITH HIIIIIIIIM" debate is pretty well-worn territory in this fandom. either you see it/ship it or you don't

BUT I AGREE, RUPERT KICKS ASS. Unsung hero of these movies, consistently awesome, even when the script shackles him into long silences broken up only by the occasional "bloody hell!" he manages to steal scenes right out from under people, fine fresh fierce etc. :D
