I have run out of Batman/Superman slash fic to read, which is amazing considering that a week ago I had zero interest in any such thing. Most of it, naturally, was either overly romantic crap or indulgently torrid sex scenes written by people who have probably never had sex. I'm disturbed at the number of people who apparently think Superman has no brain and Batman is a scary sort of father figure. If I knew enough of the actual canon I might try writing it, but I don't, and the actual canon seems very confusing and possibly not much better written than some of the fanfic. There also seem to be 83754 universes *in canon* with Superman and Batman in them, so how can anyone tell what's canon and what isn't? Anyway. I still have a bad cold and I'm going back to bed, without any slash fic except what's in my head. Hey, that rhymed. And scanned. I'm a poet on cold medicine.

I would have thought this was awesome if it had happened at my school [link]

I am a pirate on the geek zodiac, and TCG is a time traveller.

That's awesome!

ha! I love all the Undead complaining about their bits falling off.

Hey, my daughter's class got to meet that baby T-rex last year on a school field trip. I thought it was great! There was significantly less screaming when we saw him, probably because there was a museum docent right there to introduce him to the kids. Cutest moment of the visit: When the T-rex noticed the full grown T-rex skeleton behind him and started cooing at it.

VegNews put out a statement that's basically a few paragraphs talking about how great they are and how difficult it is to keep a magazine running, and then a paragraph that starts with, "Yes, from time to time, after exhausting all options, we have resorted to using stock photography that may or may not be vegan."

I just flipped through the latest issue. As far as I can tell, there are just four photos there that aren't stock photos -- one of them is a photo of Mayim Bialik with an article she wrote about raising vegan kids, where the photographer is credited, one is a photo with a recipe where I can't imagine being able to find that photo as a stock photo, and the other two are photos of workers that they interviewed for an article about the dangers faced by slaughterhouse workers.

Aw, that is a cool moment!

I hate that, when I find a new fic genre, and I read it all obsessively for a while and then I am adrift.

Hivemind! I roasted a chicken last night, but apparently not long enough. It's been refrigerated overnight - can I fire up the oven again and finish it? Or would that be dangerous? It is a free range chicken, I believe.

Smonster, I don't know if you should do that, but I would probably do what you suggest.
