Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks, you guys!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm following via RSS (does that show up as following? I don't have nor want a tumblr account), but I haven't publicised. Pretty sure I would just be telling us, anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You sure, -t? I have three. They're very comfy.

Pretty sure. I think I might have crossed some invisible curmudgeon line with all the variations on blogging. I hardly tweet, how could I . . . I don't even know what the associated verb is for tumblr.

You don't need one! You're better off.

I texted today. For maybe the first time ever.

It puts the things...you know, the things...together in one place.

Of course, I follow all of 6 tumblrs, and half of those are all Tom Hardy all the time, so what do I know?

Ryan Reynolds is single!

And there's a kid named Booboo. He's kinda pretty. He should call me in a couple years.

WTF? Which reminds me, I owe Colin a text. Oops.

I'm watching Jumper. I don't know why, and I don't know what's up with Samuel Jackson's hair.

Yeah, I barely use my cellphone. And just as a phone. Kat, K and lori can attest to my ineptitude. Not that I CAN'T learn, I just use it so rarely, and live such that I can keep using it so rarely, I don't try. It's deliberate luddititude. Hell, I reluctantly do IM either through google (just my brother) and kinda resent fb having it. Don't want to be that accessible.

eta: I judge me for being this way, not others for using the tech. The tech is cool! I just don't wanna play.

You can turn off FB chat, sara. I'm very limited in IM - I don't mind the message part, but "instant" is too much pressure.
