The only words I really have are that I'm glad my participation in online fandom has given me the tools to reclaim media from creators who don't deserve them. Buffy is mine now, just like Harry Potter is mine.
YES, Dana. Buffy is great. Joss is not. I will separate the creator from the creation, especially if there's a way to do that that doesn't involve putting money in the creator's pocket (be that fanfic, or supporting the actors in other projects or through fandom ways, but not paying for new Harry Potter books, for instance)

That is such a perfect way to think about this.
YAY for a few days break from the grind, -t. Any plans other than being lazing about? That is how I would spend time off. Not having to do stuff would be super cool.

THIS. This is exactly perfect.
In "this is weird" news: I, uh, may be ramping up on management skills. For a shitty reason (co-worker health reasons, they're going to need support), but when I talked to my VP about it, he was VERY enthusiastic and started rattling off the things he could do to help me.
(I caught the typo I made in "management skills" before I hit post! It nearly said "management kills", which is an entirely different thing.)
You are on top of management kills, Atropa, surely.
No plans, Laura. I’m going to sleep in tomorrow and then see how things go.
I mean, I'd put you in charge of management kills if I had such a position to fill.
Or, rather, I'd seek your agreement to fill it.
There's no proof. None.
Of course not. You are too skilled for that.
