The heteronormativity of much slash never fails to amaze me.
So much this.
And the fixation on penetrative sex. Because of my current fandom infatuation, I come across a lot of first-sexual-encounter-ever fics. After several, "I don't think that's the good idea you think it is, madame author," thoughts, I just started saying, "fucking heteronormativity" and closing the tab.
Take care of yourself, Karl.
I am not a fan of MPREG, but a friend of mine, tenured professor no less, is writing a long MPREG piece. She's having fun with it, but every so often the wrongness of it just hits me.
Did you check out the link?
I saw you with all your pins on FB! I miss your wig. You might need to get a new one.
(Though your hair looked good.)
MPREG - man, after discovering the existence of wing-fic, MPREG just looks so tame.
I think that's part of Loki's appeal in
Avengers
Fandom. Canonical MPREG. Well, that and Hiddleston.
lisah, they actually made me asshole in charge of our derby board meetings. The meetings started running too long so they gave me permission to start cutting people off and making people stick to the agenda. The meetings got shorter and we got through the whole agenda.
Sometimes it pays to be the asshole.
Oh good LORD. I came in to an email from my counterpart at another organization, asking a straightforward question (admittedly, about a thing we've been sitting on for months) and she copied several higher-ups including MY CEO. For fuck's sake.
Heh, Matt, I was pretty sure you were the Boston driving hater here when I typed that.
Karl, I'm so sorry.
Jesse, WTF. Ass 'em in the ear.
hey men I work for - when you do not include me on any of your emails about the video conference and you never even tell me that it is involving a site that is not one of our normal video sites, THEN I CANNOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS WHEN IT FAILS!! If my total involvement has been sending the invite, then everyone being there on time is THE END OF MY SHIT! Oh and when you call me instead of the IT help desk to make it start working and I produce the email string of you independently chatting with IT about it NEVER CC'ing me, I will state all that info in front of our collective bosses because I am not taking the blame.
Happy fucking Friday.
Jesse, WTF. Ass 'em in the ear.
I'm pretty sure I handled it fine, but UGH!
msbelle should definitely ass THEM in the ear, though.
