LJ's Question of the Day: From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?

Okay, everybody knows that one. Actually, I've made a few new friends lately *waves to new friends*, so how about a newly revised TOP TEN HOT VAMPIRES WHO DUCKS WOULD LIKE TO BANG WOULDN'T MIND BEING BITTEN BY?Read more... )

Seriously, I could go on and on and on forever without ever including a Twilight vampire. The father Cullen is kind of cute, but... the fact that nobody in that town ever notices how FREAKING WHITE he is just... throws me out of the fantasy. Oh, and I could make a top ten list of Sherrilyn Kenyon vampires alone, even though they're not really "vampires" per se (but they totally are).

Okay, I'm going to have to do a Top 20, I think. 11-20 Vampires that can bite me. *G* )

Man, I loves me some vampires.

Hahahaha. This little dragon bugger:

Adopt one today!

Her code is "sLUT". That is SO going to be her name somehow.

I am SO happy! I was laboring and laboring and TORTURING myself trying to get my Kris Allen/Alan Lambert RPF done for today, which originally was supposed to be the last day to post. The story has stalled about 1/3 of the way through, and I'm working through the mess, but I need at least a couple more days. Well, I just went to go beg for forgiveness, when I discovered that the new posting deadline is JULY 31! W00t!

Oh boy, I hope this excellent day does not count against my two doctors' appointments tomorrow. *sigh*

~

So what did you guys think of True Blood last night? AWESOME, RIGHT? Come over to [livejournal.com profile] trueblood_squee -- I'm dying to get a discussion going!

~

Don't forget, this week is [livejournal.com profile] ibarw - International Blog Against Racism Week! I haven't decided if I'm going to post, or just comment on links I find. It depends on if this DAMN HEADACHE GOES AWAY and I think of something non-faily I want to say.

DRAGONS!

Note to my awesome friends who always pet my babies. Someone mentioned recently that you don't have to click them -- the most important thing is total views. I, uh... don't know what to do about that, but... if you don't mind clicking them, please feel free. I like to pretend I'm petting them.

*sigh*

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

Zzzzzzzz.

I'm plodding my way through Weeds Season 4 still. MAN does it drop in quality sometime in season 3. No, you know, on second thought... the quality doesn't change, but neither does the story. It's all, "OMG Nancy's gonna get caught! No she's not! Yes she is! No she's not!" and a premise that was completely hilarious, poignant and charming in the beginning is starting to get a little (besides completely unbelievable) "Um... she's sort of a bad mother." Which brings it into icky territory. Plus, I'm annoyed that there's just Baboom! No more Conrad? What? That does not please me. And the season 4 premise was even MORE stupid, which was annoying. If they had stayed with asshole grandfather and bedridden great-grandmother too long I was going to just have to stop. But seriously, now the freaking Mexican mafia? I just don't know.

I wonder how much JDM got paid to appear in a whole like, five minutes of the entire show?

I loved the first like, 2 3/4 seasons, and I adore the music, but man has it gotten tedious. Will someone just shoot Celia in the face already? (Don't tell me if they do later on, I want to CHERISH IT UNSPOILED.)

I WANT CONRAD BACK!

(I actually finished season 4 last night, and I'm still all... WTF? And being the compulsive dork idiot that I am, OF COURSE I have to move onto season 5. *sigh* I have other series I want to catch up on!)

~

Okay, I've done it again. Signed up for Entirely too much fic stuff. But hey, at least I'm writing SOMETHING. I need to get it all down here so I know how much trouble I'm really in.

[livejournal.com profile] femslash_today's Fireworks '09 (Completely Not) Annual Femslash Porn Battle -- Now through Midnight, Friday, July 10
International Day of Femslash - July 18 (I volunteered to make Fuffy icons for this too!)
[livejournal.com profile] paintedboys' Kradam Ficathon - Posting Dates July 20-July 27
[livejournal.com profile] ibarw International Blog Against Racism Week is July 27-August 2, I will probably post, but I'll also be trying to keep track of the conversation and share with you guys.
[livejournal.com profile] matrithon - Posting Dates 9/7-10/5 (I haven't signed up for an exact date yet)
[livejournal.com profile] shapinglight's Darla Ficathon - Posting Date 10/31-11/1

Plus IWRY, CYA, Decade of AtS, and anything else that comes up between now and then, because apparently I've forgotten how to say no. :D

Oh, and I'm also running TWO communities now: [community profile] whedonpr0norama at Dreamwidth (anyone is welcome to post!) and [livejournal.com profile] trueblood_squee over on LJ.

It's a lot, yes, but it's getting me all fired up, and that fire is what I need to get to writing my OWN stuff again!

Of course, now I'm tired and ready for a nap.

I will confess being really pleased with the feedback for my [livejournal.com profile] femslash_today Porn Battle story (Hotbox, Olivia Wilde/Megan Fox RPFS if you're interested. *G*). I haven't written much femslash over the years, and I know absolutely nothing about these two actresses, so hearing that it made people hot made my porny heart very happy.

Hey! Speaking of PORN! *G* You may have noticed I mentioned in passing above my new Dreamwidth community (but anyone is welcome to come over and play using OpenID -- I'll even put up a post there explaining how!), [community profile] whedonpr0norama. I know I tried this over at InsaneJournal, but I really, really love Dreamwidth, and I really, really would love to read some new Whedon porn (not STARRING Whedon. Ew.), so I opened it. I want to do a Porn Battle Dealie over there eventually where all manner of porn will be had in the comments, but for now, everybody and anybody over 18 with some porn involving Whedonverse characters in any pairing, grouping (or hey, all by themselves!) are welcome and encouraged to post there! Please come on over and play!

Don't forget the zero in Pr0n! ;)

Oops! I totally forgot to get the garbage together for pick up tomorrow! Hasta La Vista! Please pet my dragons while you're here. *G*

Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

Happy birthday to my very good friend and fellow writer (and lover of all things dark and creepy), [livejournal.com profile] umbra_elf! I hope you have a great day, hon!

The dates for this year's International Blog Against Racism Week [community profile] ibarw are July 27 - August 2. I'm definitely going to have a post for it (at least one) -- this year has been a real struggle for me trying to come to terms with and try to change how I deal with my own privilege, and check my unconscious racism.

I know it's not about me. But you know what? Sometimes, for white people, it IS. It's about you and your place in the world, the way you contribute to or fight against oppression and bigotry. You have to look inside yourself and make changes within as much as without. It's as important for yourself as a whole, healthy, loving human being as it is for the people who ultimately benefit from your changes.

Just mho.

WOW! True Blood ratings were phenomenal for a cable show! And this doesn't even count people like me who watch it online or download it because they don't or can't get HBO! W00t!

I've seen a few people complaining, but I've long since learned my lesson about that -- I ignore them! *G* Am I an Eric/Sookie fan and a proud member of Team Eric? Yes. Do I therefore think that there's something inherently wrong with Bill/Sookie shippers and Team Bill or Team Sam people? NO. And I'm staying SIX BILLION MILES AWAY from the brewing shipper wars.

I can smell them that far away, you know. It starts with little barely veiled jabs at the male character you don't like as much, or off the cuff negative things abou tthe other pairing. That's when I click "BACK" and RUN!

Ooh! You know what I'm should do? START A SQUEE COMMUNITY like [profile] spn_woohoo! No negativity allowed!

Speaking of TV Geekery, Have You Voted in the TwoP Tubey Awards yet?

An interesting conversation about the Obama administrations OFFENSIVE defense (oxymoron?) of DOMA between two people I really admire:







There are a lot of things going on in the world right now, but Obama needs to say something SOON to distance himself from this anti-LGBTQ garbage, or he's going to lose what little credibility he has left in the gay community.

Sign a petition to demand the brief be repealed and an apology be made for its content: http://act.credoaction.com/campaign/doma_brief/?r_by=4580-2019307-_BOm9qx&rc=confemail

Are they fucking serious with this shit? Megan Fox's body as a model of the American Party System? *looks at calendar* What the hell year is this? Thanks, [personal profile] heathershaped for the head's up.

I just... bleurg.

Speaking of objectifying women and rape culture...

There's a fascinating -- and really, really disturbing -- conversation going on at [livejournal.com profile] cereta's site right now about rape, rape culture, and men's responsibility in the matter. It's so weird (and not in the best way) in the years since I've been out of college and the Women's Studies program, I've become much more deeply involved in gay rights than women's rights specifically (even though the two are inexorably intertwined). It's been a while since I thought about this issue. Anyway, I highly recommend this food for thought.

And just so I don't leave you with such thinky thoughts...



Awwww.
