Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

I've spent, um, most of the day reading about fanlib. That probably wasn't the wisest move.

Dude, not even FanLib wants me. It's that kind of day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Nice! Thanks for the recs!

And it's on, at fandom_wank. Took them awhile.

Fanlib reminds me of that guy Ace Underpants who was going to finance another season of Firefly.

Raq, the MiT5 review here: [link] (scroll down) hits on that a little.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'm sitting here giggling about the FanLib thing - isn't this about the only issue on which assorted groups are pretty much unified?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I sort of boggle at the idea that they have that live journal is for profit fanfic site. Yes, live journal is for profit. But it is 1) not just a fan fic site and 2) their profit model is - iffy at best. ( DH interviewed there)

What is even happening?

Is learning the definition of "cosplay" going to have me reaching for the brain bleach?

move out and draw fire

Interesting link, Plei, thanks (reading it now).

Probably not, Cindy, within reason: cosplay is costume play. Used to be nurses and French maids and stuff, now it's frequently anime/manga.

Now, if you go looking at photos of older, larger men cosplaying as Sailor Moon, you will need to BYOBB.
