I have purged my f-list. Remember, f-lists are not a drama zone for me - if I dropped you, it's not because I hate you. I'm not in any games at the moment and I'm much more active over in Torchwood fandom on LJ so I'm checking my f-list less. Just making it a bit less cumbersome. (If you have an LJ and don't mind excessive blather and fic and vid posts, my LJ is ~phaetonschariot, I have the same open friends policy there.)

Also have a picture of bunnies.

So I'm poking around Teh NZ Intarwebs looking at rabbit hutches and prices trying to see if I can find really nice roomy outdoor accommodations that I can afford and there's this one site that is like a directory of website businesses. Apparently if you search for 'rabbit and/or hutches', you get an AWFUL LOT of, erm, "adult self-entertainment" results. Rabbit vibrators, obviously. Somehow I feel that this is not what I'm looking for.

I have a lot of thoughts about fandom as separate from mainstream society.

( This got long and rambling. )

Good lord that meta got out of hand. Thinking way too much when I should be working on my prompt for the 10th.

Ianto Jones does not have a vagina.*

This may seem obvious, but it means there are certain ramifications that some of you seem not to be grasping. Namely that, as you like to point out, Jack has genitalia sized quite firmly above average. When inserted into the anus, especially the first time, this is quite likely to hurt.

Things that make it even more likely to hurt are the complete absence of lubrication and pre-penetration preparation. I do not think Ianto would much approve of Jack just sticking it in there. (I'm not sure Jack would much approve either, for that matter. Before or after Ianto kicked him in the balls.)

Please consider and adjust your writing accordingly. TY.


* for exceptions, see Torchwood novel Almost Perfect.

Given that ~iantofuckingjones is too long a un, do I want ~kingianto or ~king_ianto?

I'm watching Hard Core Logo - haven't seen it in several years which is a pity coz it's fucking amazing. Everyone should see it.

It was... when I was falling out of Voyager fandom, I think, coming into Due South and then that went into Invisible Man, basically the late nineties, early 00s, all this Canadian tv and movies. Hard Core Logo, Last Night, Double Happiness... Callum Keith Rennie was fantastic in that time period, these low budget movies and tv shows that were just better than most of the crap America puts out now. (Though I suspect Invisible Man had a slightly higher budget than some of the others simply because of the special effects, and Due South did blow up a few cars and buildings along the way. XD)

I've found the line of how much lorazepam my doctor will prescribe me in a quarter, which is 15 1mg tablets. Which means no more than one a week.

ALSO THE DOCTOR WEIGHED ME AND I PUT ON WEIGHT. :D


On a different note the fuckheads who lit fires I hope your houses burned down which they probably did because two towns have been obliterated. If you want to kill a shitton of people do it the old-fashioned way with a gun in a crowded mall, except don't coz it's shitty, but omgggggg. The environmental damage makes me cry. D: People with cars couldn't even get out in time, let alone wild animals, and plants can't move at all. DISAPPROVAL MONKEY DISAPPROVES.

400 COMMENTS AND NO ONE THOUGHT TO CONTACT A MOD???

Do you know how time consuming it IS to freeze THAT MANY threads??? ARRRRGH. Now I'm going to see if I can find a way to make the link to contact the mods as FREAKING OBVIOUS AS POSSIBLE.

*bites things annoyedly*
*chews ardath gently*

ETA:
the_willow has a write up of it that one of my RP friends linked to when we were discussing it in chat - I'd come back fuming after freezing all the threads and we've been talking about it since. Unfortunately she seems to have banned the entirety of the a_p membership from commenting and deleted my comments when I used a different journal. This is the main comment I left:

(Not sure why I've been banned from commenting here, considering I've never met you before, but oh well.)

As the (interested in converting to Judaism) maintainer of asylum_promo, I just want to say that I'm very disappointed how things went down. That ad is actually one of the ones I recognise as part of the group that actually knows the rules and follows them, and has been posted many times in the past. The first couple of times I put comment tracking on so I'd know if there was wank. Since there was none, I didn't keep up with that.

The first I heard about this was one of my fellow mods coming online and alerting me. At that point there were 390 comments. Not a single person thought to contact the moderators or maintainer of a moderated asylum to deal with a problem with a post? I've just finished freezing every single thread on the post, since they've agreed to change their name and as far as I and my fellow mod are concerned that ought to be the end of it.

Yes, I am still hung up on no one telling us.

What the fucking fucker fuck? It is May 3, very firmly still the middle of AUTUMN. And it SNOWED.

My brain, it asplode.

I didn't get into this in OTC because while drama is amusing, I only wanted little wee tiny drama that's easy to get over rather than raving bitch fights and post deletion and banning.

I don't hold the opinion that you should only have sex with someone who'll make a good spouse and parent - not when we have seven million different kinds of birth control and yes, they can fail, but then you also have the morning after pill and, if the worst comes to the worst, abortions. That is an outdated view. Sex is fun. If it wasn't fun then yeah, sure, just for procreation, but it is. Well, to most people, I don't much enjoy it myself, but the popular view, etc.

However. I don't think single teenage mothers, or single mothers in general, are necessarily brave. Yeah, sure, they didn't choose to have an abortion, but sometimes an abortion is actually not the easiest route. Depending on your family, background, social pressures, beliefs, having the baby may well be the course of least resistence. A woman wants an abortion like a fox in a trap wants to chew its leg off, people. Abortions are not fun.

In fact, I will go so far as to say that in a lot of cases having a baby is selfish. Yes, I said it. Babies are not always precious little miracles that the world is blessed to have. Everyone is free to make their own choices of course, but my choice, in my situation is to never reproduce, because I would risk passing on a fuck of a lot of bad genes. I would be even firmer on this if I had a debilitating genetic disease.

It is not brave to have a baby. It is a fact of nature. You get pregnant and if you do nothing, it will result in a baby. (Unless it results in complications that kill the fetus and/or you.) Sometimes having and keeping the baby is a hard choice that you will face negative consequences for, yes, while at other times it's the simple path, the one that's easiest to deal with because having an abortion or putting a child into the fucked up, useless mess that is the adoption system in many countries are difficult moral choices that some people can't deal with for whatever reason.


Okay, flame away. :D

6:29 PM: Elizard|Wr: "I offer one line of argument only (although I am not sufficiently arrogant to believe that anything I write will settle this once and for all).
6:29 PM: Elizard|Wr: Water flows down the plug-hole in the direction it is introduced into a sink or drain.
6:29 PM: Elizard|Wr: The effects of Coriolis - when the rotating earth causes the winds to deflect to the right in the northern hemisphere and the left south of the equator - on baths of water, at whatever distance from the equator, is minimal.

Basically, Elizard says that the hemisphere you live in doesn't effect what direction the water drains out of a sink or toilet.

So.

In the comments:
1) The country you live in.
2) The direction the water drains, and
3) Whether you
- a. flushed the toilet
- b. turned on a tap (and whether the tap was on the right or left side of the drain, or centered above it)
- c. filled a sink and then pulled out the plug


1) New Zealand (Southern Hemisphere)
2) Anti-clockwise
3) Taps - first the left side, then the right, then the left again. It was much easier to see using the left tap.

Good lord last night was.... yes, well. Basically there was a spazz attack between two mods and one of them deleted the game so we were all like "....let's make new communities, ok" so another mod did that and that's where we all are now, except then the first mod un-deleted the original game and WHAT THE HELL idk. Anyway, everyone's a bit on edge and trying to pick up the pieces and I am bleeding from the uterus.

In amusementish though, Dorian was pissed East didn't visit in the hospital wing so East made him a cake and the ensuing constantly-escalating stream of notes was making us giggle madly for quite some time. I'm pretty sure it'll continue when Esh comes on again today. I also found this website of useless and bizarre stuff I think mostly found via old newspapers etc.

I am out of conditioner and I want midori, but the place where I can buy midori is the opposite direction of the supermarket and too far away. Maybe I will see if there is any nice wine. I want wine and chocolate and fruity conditioner and I have to remember to keep an eye on the weather and bring the washing in if it starts raining or something.

- Michelle Trachtenburg is stalking me. (Unfortunately not in RL.)

- I have found my incest crack OTP. OT3, I should say.

- *flails* I apparently cannot watch The Frighteners because adult control settings have been enabled on my PS2 and I don't know the four digit code to override them. It's an M rating. I watch R18 movies on this thing all the time. WHAT THE FUCK. I'd be tempted to get out my actual DVD player and set it up to watch on there, but Early Edition's on in an hour anyway.

- I now have a playlist in my iTunes full of songs from Scrubs. Either general songs that have played during the show, songs from My Musical, or songs covered by The Blanks (Ted's band). It's glorious.

- Cast Again continues to make me lol madly.

Is it just me or is every second person on addme and newcomers an under-25 American girl with a husband in the military? Why is this? Is it that people who are married to Joe Bloggs don't feel the need to spread it around, and only military wives find it important enough to tell us? Is there some kind of secret journaling service take over plan?

On one other topic I have nothing to say except "Oh, good lord."


eta: for some reason I want comfort food, and I'm very tempted to finish dressing and buy some, though I'm supposed to be saving and probably shouldn't.

I have a job interview in, like, thirteen hours. I have to have a shower, because if I have one in the morning my hair will probably still be damp when I get there, and I very clearly remember that lady in charge of the IN2WRK course last year saying never turn up to an interview with wet hair. I'm trying to remember what else she said.

I want to work. If I do not work, I will go crazy. I will sit in the corner of my room gibbering madly and rewatching all my dvds over and over until I can recite every single one of them word for word.

On the other hand, I'm slightly terrified of actually being given any kind of responsibility that I'm actually getting paid for after all this time.

By the way, I'm fairly certain that Oscar Wilde was completely mad for young, extremely attractive, faintly feminine, pouty, petulant, egocentric, spoiled, fanciful prettyboys. I can say this because there is one in everything he ever wrote and they are always the object of much passion from an older male character. I got the idea that Zacharias would like Oscar Wilde's work on a whim, but I'm really starting to see merit in it, considering that he is a young, extremely attractive, faintly feminine, pouty, petulant, egocentric, spoiled, fanciful prettyboy.

I should take my medicine before I forget. Somebody please kill me. I am going to shower now.
